Actually I found a solution posted here way back. Seems if you install the gridiron xfactor plugin, even if you dont use the software, but as long as you install it, the problem is solved. I tried it and sure as heck it works perfectly.
Now I can leave AE open and render away at 100% in another application. I did have major probs installing the latest version xfactor v 1.5.3 – my screen froze up on every step of the install and then crashed my computer right at the end. Dont know what was going on but even though it didnt install fully, the plugin is their and AE works as it should.
In retrospect Id hate to think of the time Ive wasted on renders within Max and other apps thinking that AE was sitting their doing nothing. Oh well…live and learn.

And nor should you…i still laugh my azz off at the ‘old school sticklers’ who think that this is a must for video editing with todays systems. WAKE UP FELLAS, for the past 4 years at least most hard drives have had speeds in excess of 35mb/s sustained read/write. Today youd have to look hard to find a single 7200 hard drive that cant get over 50 with the latest hiting 70mb/s. Hook 2 together in the simplest raid and these figures double.
Whats the data rate of dv…? around 3.5mb/s, even uncompressed D1 video is only 25mb/s…can anyone do the math on that?

Im confused…”Matrox Axio HD is priced at $11,495 US in North America. Matrox Axio SD is priced at $7,495 US in North America. Prices include the complete Adobe Video Collection Standard, the workstation and storage are extra”
I was under the impression that the already heafty price tags were for complete turnkey solutions, now they are saying that these prices are for the card only??? Seems incredibly steep to me considering whats out in the market at the moment.
Perhapse someone should point out to Matrox what is available with cards like Blufish and even the Canopus Edius NX for a fraction of the above price. Of course the Canopus solution doesnt use Ppro but hell, considering Axio cant even handle HDV at this time…
