well I think 200 people dancing and drinking while I have someone dragging a cable around could be dangerous at the lest ….
not to mention how disturbing it would be for the guest …
Ok incase anyone has the same issue …I Downloded the file on a PC and unzipped it there .
Turns out you have to unzip it on the Mac ,I thought it would be the same but its not .
All working now !

in reply to: 24 inch Imac
ok than cool…..let me just clairfy in better detail what my issue was .I was editing hdv before on a dual 3 gig pc with 2 gigs of ram and Sata hard drives in raid 0 .using premier pro .I wanted to start using Final Cut so I thought before I bought a expensive Mac that I would start using FC on a Imac
just to see how things went .( this was the 20 inch intel no FW 800 ) that was out just before these new ones came out .my issue was that I found the Imac much slower than the Pc with premier Pro . But I did like FC ( it was just not so responsive moving around in the program ) So I was hopeing that with the new 24 inch imac being that they are suppose to be about 50 percent faster and it now has FW 800 plus a better GPU card .That i would find using FC for HDV as smooth as it was or close to it as it was on the PC …
I have no other need to go beyond HDV or at the most DVC pro hd ..I have to admit getting a 24 inch display sounds realy nice for that price .,,,Although
if I have to get a Mac pro than so be it .I would just hate to find I spent the extra cash and did not need too !
thanks again for any comments
