Could you outline your system a little more in detail? I have a Dual 2GHz G5, 2.5GB RAM, 10.4.11, FCP 6.0.2, two regular drives internal, ATI XT800XT 256, SATA card in slot 2 or 3, two striped drives out in an external box talking to the SATA card. Sony MXF driver, EX importer 2.1, both working fine. I see the clips, can play them well in the Sony player, but as soon as I import them into 6.0.2 I get massive wait times for clips to load and stuttering motion. Can't figure it out. The original files are on the same striped drives, and both they and the imported QT files play fine without stuttering. It's just the FCP 6.0.2 that's doing it... What's going on? Chris Quote:

I've seen that behavior from time to time on my MacBook Pro and have never been able to pinpoint it. Takes like 5 to 8 seconds after you hit play for the clip to start, and then its playback is tenuous.
I don't have a solution except to say that since it happens on my Intel, it's probably not a G5 thing. |

Hey Eric
Maybe it's a QT 7.4 thing? |

Dual 2.3GHz, PCI-X slots empty, 1.5GB RAM, AGP slot ATI Radeon 9600XT 128MB VRAM, Hitachi 500MB 2nd internal hard drive, OS 10.4.11, FCP 6.0.2, QT 7.3.1
So we're talking about minimal system and XDCAM EX play without issue in FCP. No spinning beach balls. I have less RAM and less VRAM than you. Quote:

I'll try to reinstall QT 7.3 and see if that helps any. I have 7.4.0 installed. You never know... |

If you have Time Machine working, I've read (on the link below) that you can use that to go back to 7.3, though I honestly wouldn't know exactly what to keep or throw away.
More info on 7.3 vs. 7.4 here: http://arstechnica.com/journals/appl...7-4-update-yet |
