Officially, 10.3.9 and 10.4.1 and FCP5 are not supported by the io right now, nor is FCP 4 or 4.5 under 10.3.9 or 10.4.1. Give it a week and apple should have the drivers back to AJA and posted (but you know how drivers have been). But it dose work for about half of all users that have upgraded.

It is. I have a 1.42 Mm that I have been designing into a corporate trade show. The Mm with a 7200 Rpm FW drive is running at 4 fps, h.264 1280×720 24fps 2000kb/s. Apple will tell you it’s the graphics card. I have been testing and I can get 720@24 to play from the DVCPROHD codec, probably the best HD solution right now.

The macmini will not play back HD at all. The internal disc is too slow and the CPU/graphics card can not keep up. Also you can not author a HD DVD on your ibook. I am having problems on a G5 Dual 2.7GHz with 8GB ram. Further more there are no HD DVD players on the market. For now, I would export the 16:9 HD to Uncompressed 8bit SD 16:9, and master a SD DVD from there. If you need the video to loop seamlessly, then export a 30min to 1hour looping video. (the dvd will pause for a few seconds at the end of the loop, and this way you will make the pause less noticeable) You can do this in DVDSP by just duplicating the video on the timeline. Set the encode rate to 6-8Mb/s 2 pass VBR, best motion estimation. Going over 8mb/s may crash even the best SD dvd players. Burn out, and set the whole thing up. When HD DVD players come out, you just need to (in DVDSP 4) reconnect the HD 1080i content with the SD place holders, and redeliver an HD DVD.

My io is running just fine with FCP5 and 10.4.1, but AJA dose not support this configuration until the new drivers. I have been told that they are coming this week, and that apple is running final tests. Initially they had a problem with dynamic frame rate, but that should be worked out.

Back up everything, and do a clean install of 10.4. (this will install QT7)
Then upgrade via software update to 10.4.1.
Install FCP Studio (or upgrade). (this will give you QT7 pro).
Shut down.
Connect up the media drives, boot, and see if everything mounts.
I then recommend installing all applications that you use from their CDs and stop by each developers site and download the upgrades to the latest versions.The biggest problem is that people do not clean install. I am running 10.4.1 on a dual 2.7 with FCP 5 Studio AJA io. All is well here, except my scsi is giving me problems.

Yup. Download it, and the 1.10 firmware (the BCF displays the firmware # when you turn it on)
Turn on the BCF and make sure your in U-1 to 4. Launch SysEx, drag the 1.10 Sys file to the window.
Press the play button in the upper right. the data will transfer. then turn off and on the BCF holding the second from the left top buttun under the pot. Nc c will be displayed. press exit on the BCF and your ready to go.https://www.snoize.com/SysExLibrarian/
