Thanks guys. I had the P2 workflow papers from the Apple seminar, but it only mentioned FCP 5. I thought maybe it was because it was FCP 5 that they used in the class. I was thinking about upgrading anyway.

I was being facetious. I’m very happy with my G5. I just got it on Craig’s List a few weeks ago. I was working on a G4 Powerbook so to me the Dual 2.0’s are fantastic. I’m not overly concerned with the AVCHD either. I was just wondering because I’m getting rid of my GL1’s and I did like the Panny’s 3 chip HD consumer cam. I’ll just go with something else-I don’t do enough video work anymore to justify 2 prosumer cameras. If I need something nice, I’ll just rent an HVX.

I got the same set up. Dual 2.0 G5’s. It’s still under (extended) warranty and it’s already a dinosaur.

thank you. I can’t believe I never looked at creative cow forums before a few days ago.

thank you. I do find it peculiar that Safari won’t play it and explorer will. I will try to fix it.

I forgot to mention, I did use compressor to make a file, and it works, but there is quite a bit of noise around moving edges of clothing. Toast still encoded it, even though it was already MPEG2. I don’t usually use Compressor, so I don’t know what the cause of the noise is,Toast or Compressor.

I have installed QT 7, but I don’t know of any problems with FCP 4.5 yet. Thank you though, I will check
