ive just upgraded to fcp 5
im on laptop g4, 10.4.2 , 1 Ghz and 512 MB Ram
recently ive got problems with playback when
im connecting an external monitor to my firewire-deck.
major dropouts, the screen and sound gets digital distortion
and very often the screen turns blue and after a while the
picture comes back.
ive change all my setting (that i can think of) to low quality on playback
and no mirror on desktop while playback.
my thoughts is, do i have to buy more RAM? is that going to solve my problem?
or do i have to buy a new computer?
or downgrad to FCP 4 or even 4?
