I forgot to mention this is on a new Mac Pro Quad Xeon.

Check the PCI slot. Needs to be #4 or top and make sure the Mac doesn’t go to sleep. Check the power save options and put sleep on never. The verdict is still out on 5.8 also. I went back to 5.72 and it’s more stable.

I didn’t try. I need 1080 50 capture and since it crashed every time, I went back to 5.72.
Maybe I can try in a few weeks. -
There’s a definite issue here. It’s not a loose cable or whether the machine is turned on or not. You can do anything you want and it won’t work except turn the power off and then unplug the Mac and start it back up. This issue is with a 3ghz Mac Pro in OSX and an HD Pro card. I have not seen it on a regular G5 or anything else. I had a similar issue with a Kona once and the thing is is the PCI slots still get power even when the G5 is off. By unplugging it you are doing a true reset of the card. It works perfectly after that.

I posted this a week or so ago and got no response. The BM card appears to be hanging up. If you shut down the Mac and unplug it for a few seconds and restart it should work.

If you take the clip and look at it in After Effects you will see some frames that have 1 field from one original frame and the other field from the next original frame or stutter frames. To truly remove pulldown you will have a 23.98 clip which has all full progressive frames. After Effects is able to do this perfectly and I was under the impression that the BM card would do it but it’s hards to say what it is actually doing. The pattern of stutter frames is exactly like it is coming off the tape machine. It’s like it’s not doing anything at all. You do get a 23.98 clip though.

I’ll try it again tomorrow. Don’t you guys think you should have something about this in a PDF file?

Thanks for the tip but it’s not working. You’d think BM would have some info as it’s supposedly a feature on their card.

I’d say if 8bit is good enough, and you do a lot of these effects, get the Axio.

They designed there own system too but it is 1080 4:4:4 with variable interocular and they have beam spliter cameras to take interocular down to near zero if need be. They’re in Burbank CA. I’ve already edited several 3d pieces now.
