[Vic David] “I removed additional RAM, and then replaced X800 back with the original Radeon 9600. The G5 kept freezing. Then I booted from a a different HD (Tiger) with all new hardware installed bak in and left it running overnight. It worked flawlessly.”
Yea thats why I recommended booting from the old system drive first.[Vic David] “I ran Disk utility and “verified/repaired” the Leopard boot disc, while in Tiger.”
Definitely not a good idea. You can use a newer version of the OS to repair permissions on an older but using an older OS to repair a newer one can actually cause more problems.

You simply asked if other are having issues. I simply said no.
Besides the support page is in no way connected to .Mac in any way other then the topic. They are not going to be connected in any other way.
Perhaps you could acutely tell us what issues with .Mac you are having. Then maybe somebody can provide you with some information that you feel is useful. Because apparently you didn’t think my answer to your yes or no question was good enough.

[Mitch Sink] “I didn’t realize you had also installed the X800. I would start by removing both the X800 and the extra RAM and see if the problem goes away. “
Again I say boot from the other drive, its much easier to do that, PLUS it will narrow it down to hard ware or software.
Just pulling hardware out does no good at all if you dont know for sure it is hardware.

No problems at all here.

Boot from the old boot drive, if the issue continues then it is definitely hardware, in which case remove each new piece of hardware one at a time and see if the issue ends
If the issue does not continue when booted from the old boot drive then it is probably a bad install of the OS or some other piece of software.

[Ryan Walker] “I had it on the 1080i setting, but use a normal DV tape instead of HDV”
[Ryan Walker] “Obviously this is still Standard Definition”
Nope it is HDV, you do not need to use a HDV tape to record HDV. The only difference in the HDV tapes is that they are tested and held to a higher standard then other mini DV tapes.

[todd reid] “While this is a valid point, sometimes searching can be very frustrating, especially under a deadline. “
Sorry but I cant agree with you on this one. If some one is under a deadline then a search is going to be the fastest way to find an answer.
If you have noticed that most of the times that people say to try a search is because it is a question that comes up all the time. Because the question comes up all the time a simple search will provide plenty of information MUCH faster then asking.
If you are under a deadline then obviously you want an answer as FAST as you can. And spending a few minutes searching is MUCH MUCH faster then just waiting for someone else to give you an answer.
I have seen times where someone on there post has said that they did not do a search because they didn’t have the time, but they also say that they are under a tight dead line and need to get the thing done in the next couple of hours. There question is answered but never within the time they needed. However if they spent a little bit of time searching they would have found the answer and therefor would have been able to finish there project on time.
So saying that you are under a deadline and don’t have time to search really is not a valid excuse. Because if you don’t have time to search then you don’t have time to just sit around and hope for someone else to answer the question.
That being said, I think that the reason that some on the cow may tell people to search, is because there are a lot of people on the Cow who have spent countless hours acquiring the knowledge that they have. Often thy are learning it when it is brand new and there is nobody else out there to ask questions to. They read manuals, they learned threw trial and error, etc. Because these people have learned from there own sweat and blood , it can be vary annoying when somebody posts a question and it is extremely obvious that thy have not dome a single thing to even try and find the answer on there own.
You may think that people who tell others to search are boing rude, but people who post a question without even trying to find it first, people who just expect to have the answer handed to them on a silver platter, need to learn to put in a little effort of there own first.
Personally I wish that when someone when to post a question on the Cow that it would ask the question have you tried a search of the forums.

The big thing that is holding you back on this is that you are trying to play back 16 streams of video from one signal hard drive. You are going to need a raid with much bugger data rate then what your one signal drive will do, in order to play back 16 streams of video at the same time.

Just make sure the camera is set to play back in HDV, then choose the easy setup in FCP.
