Well cloned the HD to an external and tried to boot from there with no luck and also tried to boot from my macpro in target mode, again no luck.
Beginning to sound like it’s terminal…

[Shane Ross] “That is typical of capture card companies. After the Kona 3 was released, it took them a few months to get the cross convert on output written into the software. So they make all this hardware, and then can add features with software tweaks. I find that really cool. “
Makes me all the more sad that my cinewave card’s now an ornament – that had so much processing power and with new drivers… well we’ll never know. Thanks AVID!

Hi Jonathan,
click on your sequence to make it active then go to your sequence settings [cmd] 0, then select the render control tab. Make sure resolution is set to 100%.
Cheers,

Thanks Dino,
If as you say this is mainly to do with software then am I to understand that an Adrenaline system running 3.x would play the media correctly?
How did the older systems work with DVCPRO HD P2 media?
Cheers

Well Dino it is a riddle as to why media which plays perfectly in MC 3.1 won’t play without transcoding to DNX in 2.8.
Why are we doing this? Because we’re effectively ‘offlining’ on the 3.1 version and taking it to a facility for mastering to HDCAM, and it’s not just one facility. We’ve had the same problem taking project and media to the BBC.
The reason I’m being vague is that media should be media regardless of which version you’re running, hence I’m trying to find out whether there is a known problem between the versions of media composer.

It’s going backwards from 3 to 2.8
-
you could use the media tool to find all the clips in your project then create a new bin and copy all from the media tool to that bin.

I think you’ve made a mistake on the macpro pricing – £50,000???
A single quad core will cost you about £1400 add a bit more memory and a monitor (dell) and you’re up to about £1700-£1800, not wildly out of your reach and far more powerful than an imac.
-
If you turn off your multibridge and restart I’ll bet it’ll see both monitors as quartz extreme enabled.
-
If you look at ‘about this mac’ it will almost certainly tell you that quartz extreme is not supported on the second monitor. I saw this problem about 6 months ago, zapping the PRAM worked for me – might have reinstalled BM drivers too (was a while ago!)
Good luck
