    Bill for three layers of the type of media you say you are putting on your timeline you are going to need a faster media drive. If you had a proper 4-5 disk raid then I’m sure things would play back fine.

    Apples claims are good, they are just giving FCP the hardware needed to pull it off.

    Are you doing a multi-cam edit?
    How many layers of video are stacked up on your timeline?

    The best thing to do when going to a newer version of FCP is to not run it as an upgrade. I recommend cloning your system drive to another as a backup, and then completely erase your system drive, install a clean OS and then do a clean install of FCP.

    If you don’t want to do that then Get FCP Remover and use that to uninstall the old version of FCP.

    Im sorry you feel offended, I meant no offense at all. Its just that it your question was stating that you wanted to make a blue-ray DVD and that you were planing to use DVD SP. My response was simply that DVD SP does not do blue-ray, and it was only then that you state that you are going to use encore.

    Im sorry but please do not blame anybody for the confusion, when it was your story that changed. All I was trying to do was let you know that DVD SP does not do blue-ray. Many others have actually asked about how to do that here on the cow, and there is nothing wrong with pointing out that it cannot do that, when a question states that the person is planing on using DVD SP to make a blue-ray DVD.

    Cuong, if you had read the two replies to the original post we both already suggested using VLC (your first link)

    Plus there is no need to reopen a 3 month old question that was already answered.

    [Apogee Video] “I’m using that setting to export, but I don’t use DVD Studio Pro, I use Encore”

    Yea that would have been IMPORTANT to include, especially because you said you were going to use DVD SP.

    [Apogee Video] “I’m using FCP 5.1.4 and exporting via Compressor with one of the HD output settings to be used with DVD Studio Pro “

    [Apogee Video] “exporting from HD timeline for blu-ray”

    [Apogee Video] “I’m using FCP 5.1.4 and exporting via Compressor with one of the HD output settings to be used with DVD Studio Pro “

    DVD Studio Pro does NOT do blue-ray.

    Do a search about blue ray authoring here on the cow and you will find plenty of info about it. In fact in looking over todays posts there is a nice thread a little way down about it.

    [Steven J. Gilbert] “I have been experiencing some dropped frames on a small project I decided to edit on the system drive”

    [Steven J. Gilbert] “What settings should I be using to avoid future dropped frames”

    Keeping the media on the system drive would be the cause.

    Your system system drive has enough to do running the OS and applications, pile on top of that heavy video files and it is just not going to be able to keep up.

    Move your media to a separate designated media drive (and not a USB one) and that will make a world of difference.
