FCP has been stuttering with clips on the play back. I have a series of Animation clips that are at most 6 sec long. whenever the play head gets to the third clip the canvas freezes but the playhead continues then a few clips later the canvas catches up with the playhead. These clips are originally exported from After Effects and brought into FCP. While in FCP there isn't any motion, filters, or effects added to the clip.
FCP 7.0.2, Mac OSX 10.6.3, 6GB Ram, Quadro FX 4800 18.5.2
