Don did you ever solve this? I’m having a similar crisis right now!!

Thanks for the quite amusing responses guys!
I dropped down the ram and memory settings and guess what? It seems to run faster????!!!??? How wierd is that!
Also the fan isn’t going bananas like it was last night.
Right I’m going to track down nucleo pro!

Had a problem a bit like that recently. The only solution was a clean install of OS X. I bought a second internal hard drive to back up my machine.
Sorry it’s such a gloomy suggestion!

Great! Thanks – all working well.

Ha ha! Thanks Francois! Was just a little joke at the ludicrous number of posts I have made to my own thread!
Can you not buy 5.1 as a download? Or if you have one already, then purchase licenses for the other machines? You’ve probably explored these avenues already.
Whereabouts are you in SA? I was shooting in Jo’burg last summer.
Thanks for the response and good luck with the upgrades.
This problem has cost me about 4 days, but finally everything seems to be working, and the audio ‘pop’ or click that used to come up when I started up, or woke up the G5 seems to have miraculously gone too. Wierd what happens as a side-effect when you fix one problem.
Best wishes

Reinstalling FCP 5.1 sorted it.
I’m back on track!!!!

Here’s what it’s saying after I re-installed FCP
“Codec not found. You may be using a compression type without the corresponding hardware card.”

I seem to have solved the monitor problem. I reinstalled OS X which forced me to reinstall the firmware for the MBX.
There doesn’t seem to be any other way to re-install the firmware that I have found so far. Quite a major issue, as this has taken me 2 days to fix so far.
Problem now is that FCP doesn’t seem to have the appropriate codec to play back my HDV footage.
Somehow in the process the codec seems to have gone missing.
I’ve decided to reinstall FCP to see if that will remedy the situation.
If anyone knows of a quick way to solve this codec problem, please let me know.

Hi Luke
The Mac OS X desktop does NOT appear on your Cinema display.
In the DeckLink PrefPane (in System Preferences) next to the text “Preference settings for your….” It shows “Multibridge Extreme”, I have already shut down the Mac and ensured that the thumb-lock screws for the PCI Express cable are tight at both ends where they connect with the Mac and the Multibridge.
This morning I tried powering up the system again and the multibridge started making a continuous clicking sound through the speakers. The decklink was already making a loud click when it powered up – for instance when the computer was ‘woken’ after being asleep.
Do I need a replacement box? I’m in the middle of a critical edit, and this is a real problem for me.
Regards,
