Try turning off all your font collections in Font book – if that works, then turn them on one by one, testing Motion each time.

Following up on Jim’s question, if you keyframed the motion path, you could go to the keyframe editor and choose “after last keyframe” to repeat the animation ad infinitum from the animation pulldown menu.

The GPU does the final compositing. The CPU calculates motion paths (eg particles). RAM determines how much (duration) of real time playback you get. Damian Allen’s book gives a very good overview of how this all works.

It’s an UMLAUT, and to put one over a U, type Option-U, then U.

Changing the Frame Rate parameter in the Media tab of the inspector should certainly work, but you can also try keyframing the Scrub filter – not intuitive either, but works pretty well.

“Send to Motion” is what you want, if it isn’t working, I’d suggest trashing your prefs files.

You need to change the sequence controls to custom and keyframe from -100% to 0.

The inspector and the tooltip will tell you the % of the original size, but not the dimensions – you’ll have to do the math.
