2 Matrox MXO problems...Posted by Gregory O'Toole
Hi all
Brand new 8 core MacPro, 5 gb ram brand new matrox mxo, with 2.0 drivers FCP 6, OS 10.4.10 two problems... 1) in FC or AE, when the matrox has "control" of my second screen to be used as a monitor, i can no-longer use the "Command+tab" function that switches between all open programs...it works fine in ther programs and the finder, and even in FC when the matrox is not "using" the second screen (ie: i have turned off the external monitor option). 2) FC has now crashed twice when using the matrox to view on external screen, and i go to text generator, control tab. both times, after FC crashed, the second monitor is frozen on the last screen from my FC project and i need to reboot the computer to regain normality.... anyone have any ideas? i called matrox today and they said they'd "call me back" thanks guys! g
I have noticed that my Apple tabbing function within FCP has been disabled. And I did mention that to Matrox not long ago. I have figured out how to deal with it, so I just do.
I haven't had Issue #2, so I'll leave that up to matrox. www.shanerosseditor.com Listen to THE EDIT BAY Podcast on iTunes [itunes.apple.com]
cool, thanks shane
i called them and told them about problem 1. re: problem 2 - o understand...have you *tried* to use the text generator, or have you "not had the issue" becuase you haven't tried to use the text generator? Just trying to get info so i can present it to matrox. thanks man! g
I don't use the FCP Text Generator...it is CRAP. I use the Boris Title 3D...built in...and much better.
So no, it hasn't crashed on me, and yes, it is because I don't use that. next time I have it hooked up I can try. www.shanerosseditor.com Listen to THE EDIT BAY Podcast on iTunes [itunes.apple.com]
spoke with the matrox guy today...he said they know about the tabbing thing, but that it is low on their priority list......the crashing text generator was a result of using the "rgb" setting instead of the yuv. when using the yuv setting it isn;t a problem....and i should have been in yuv anyways!

Thanks for reporting back. Very nice to have a little closure.
