Hi Kristian,

The Decklink card is in the 133 mhz PCI-X slot and the fibre card is next to it in the 100 mhz slot.
cheers,

Hi Kristian,

I ran the Decklink disk speed test on our raid and the results were extremely poor. I then erased the raid and restripped it as Mac OS Journaled with 256k blocks, after running the disk speed test again it reads at 360 mbps and writes at 283 mbps. Input performance is noticeably improved, however capture still freezes randomly. I also noticed that if I run the speed test more than once on the newly striped raid the results can differ significantly. I have also used the Decklink capture tool with picture freezing and no timecode coming through as we are capturing our timecode via the RS-422 control.
Still Testing.
Cheers,
Robert

Hi Kristian,

Thanks for the reply. The other card in the system is a Mac fibre channel card. The disk array is an S-Two Dmag: Basically six Seagate 35 gig hard drives operating at 15k rpm configed into raid (not mirrored). When I am back at it tomorrow I will try all alternatives.

Thanks,
Robert Douglas

Hi Kevin and thanks for the reply,

The array is an S-Two DMAG: basically six seagate 35 gig hard drives operating at 15k rpm via fibre channel Mac card. Mac OS is Tiger by the way.

Well, I repaired the system hard drive permissions and rebooted, but no luck so far. Any other ideas?
