Thanks for all the advice everyone. I simply had my client re-encode and all is well again.

1080i/60, yes.

I’m simply compositing some footage that was output from Final Cut on an Intel iMac. I do not have access to the staff who produced this as they are on vacation out of the country. Any suggestions?

Thanks everyone for your suggestions. Yes, it’s an Intel, I’m just still in the habit of referring to them as Powermacs. My bad.

Yes, Vector Paint. But I’ve already figured out a workaround, so I should be ok. Thanks for trying to help though, I really appreciate it.

Well, I just got off the phone with Adobe tech support who have informed me that the only time AE is capable of using more than 3gb RAM is for the actual rendering to files.

There is one option in the Multiprocessor Support preference panel, check this and that’s it.

Thanks t everyone for all the help!

Thanks very much for the info! Forgive my ignorance but does processor = core?
