Never use your system disk as video disk.
Also, the free space on the video disk should not go under 10 per cent of the total volume.
That’s the only help I can give you.
One option might be to delete all render files (using the Render Manager tool) and re-render the project. This will flush your undo queue.
You could try de-fragmenting the video disk, using third-party software. (Although OSX is claimed not to suffer from file defragmentation).

Hi David,
Here’s a screenshot from a clip.

Well, the timeline settings are matching the footage (720P50/DVCProHD from an HPX500).

No MacBook, iMac.
And scratchdisk is RAID1 over FW800.
The timeline plays without renderijg, but I guess I will simply have to render to have full A/V sync.
Thanks for your feedback, Dave. Much appreciated!

SMB does work in Mt Lion too. Can accesss my NAS now.
Have to stay with Mt Lion, being able to open FCS projects, etc.
We are planning to move to Premiere, AE, PS etc.

Yes? Was on 10.6.8 and had to upgrade because a lot of other programs, plugins and utilities that I use are no longer supported under 10.6.8

Hi Shane,
You nailed my question – from what you say it looks like I could go to 10.7 and even 10.8 on an EXISTING system, with my FCP 3 intact?
The reason is that a number of other programs, plugins, etc are being not supported in 10.6.8. I must go to at least 10.7.
On my home iMac I did upgrade to 10.7 and from what I can tell, FCS 3 seems to work well.
So, on my office iMac (only used for backup editing) I figure I could go from 10.6.8 to 10.8, by just run the Mt Lion installer?
Or should I do it in two steps – first 10.7 (with all updates) and then go to 10.8? -
Shane,
Thank you masses for the instructions. However, I really want this to work out and some of the instructions are still a bit unclear to me…
Can you perhaps clarify a bit, being a little more detailed in what to do?
What puzzles me is that you suggest ProRes422, but the HD is DVCProHD? But perhaps mixing ProRes422 and DVCProHD is no worries? (Not sure that Compressor can transcode to DVCProHD).

Parallels 10 Desktop for Mac allows you to install both Windows, Lion, Mountan Lion and Mavericks (and perhaps even Snow Leopard as well?)
Now – have anyone succeded in installing FCP 7 onto Mt Lion or Mavericks running in Parallels?
I’m forced to update my production machine into 10.7 – leaving my current Fusion 3,x unusable.
I have purchased Parallels and successfully managed to import my existing Windows 7 guest operatiing system – complete with all installed apps. Hoorray!
Now I’m curious if I would be able to intall FCS 3 on any of my virtual Lion, Mt Lion and Mavericks? A quick try tells me I have no VRAM – increasing the video RAM in the virtual machine settings did not help. Perhaps it’s as simples as that – virtualization would not give you direct access to the hardware memory.

What Shane does not know about FCP, no-one does…
Shane for FCP President! 🙂
