PT 12.5.2 Video Engine crashes with more than 12GB of RAM

I'm running a completely unvalidated configuration, so I don't expect any troubleshooting. I was surprised when it worked the first time, and I'm even more surprised that it stopped working when I...

Re: Sonic NoNOISE Decrackle bug on AAF created session

I have had that bug at least since 7.x (including 10.4.11/PT7.4.1). I may have had it even in 6.x, "but it was long ago and it was far away"

Re: where to get ooold "pro tools free"?

PT Free was based on 5.0 (no stereo tracks, limited to 8 tracks total) and ran on the Mac until 9.2.2. I think I can still make my PowerBook G3/Firewire with a G4 board run it, but that's all.

Re: Another way to do chassis's....thunderbolt!

I'm hoping that Magma adopts TBolt. All they have to do is replace the "interface" card that sits on top of the card backplane inside the enclosure. Since this interface currently converts from PCIe...

Re: Moving System drive to a new Mac Pro...? help

Re: 15 or 17 inch New Macbook Pro?

I hope that someday the Thunderbolt port will supersede the Expresscard port (they're both PCIe!). Meanwhile, and while nobody develops Firewire, eSATA, and even Expresscard adapters for Thunderbolt,...

Re: PT Performance on new Quad-Core Macbook Pros

I've seen benchmarks that indicate that CPU-wise (=RTAS) the Quad 2.0 i5 MBP is roughly on-par with a 2.66 dual-dual MacPro1,1. And that the 2.3GHz build-to-order is similar to the 2.8GHz quad-core...

Re: Quicktime Burnt In Timecode App ?

According to QTPlayer, the H264 is 3Mbits and looks quite good. I'm exporting with the same resolution, 720x480, with DV codec in High Quality, because if I Save As, Protools will load only the added...

Reconforming madness (Halp!)

Guys, I have a head-scratcher in my hands.

I'm trying to edit sound in PAL-land to a picture shot in NTSC-land.

It was recorded to a 788T generating audio timecode to 35mm AatonCode, which was...

Re: Quicktime Burnt In Timecode App ?

QTSync is consistently blurring all the videos where I insert TC. Is there a bug with H264 to DV conversions?

Re: MAC Mini for Video PLayback

First, make sure you have a Mac Mini with DisplayPort, because all older ones will tend to choke on H264. The ones with DP have, as of 10.6.3, H264 decompression on the Nvidia graphics chip.

Then,...

Re: DAE Error -1146, Magma Chassis PE6R4

Re: New CPU: Which is better - faster clock or more cores?

Re: New CPU: Which is better - faster clock or more cores?

More cores are good for RTAS. For *everything* else, faster CPU. 4 cores are more than enough for post in ProTools, if you're not replacing TDM cards with RTAS.

Re: New CPU: Which is better - faster clock or more cores?

Redesigning the native Mix Engine would probably change how many CPUs you would use for audio mixing, but not how much memory could be addressed. AFAIK, OSX is Carbon, therefore locked into 32 bit,...

Re: New CPU: Which is better - faster clock or more cores?

The big limitation with the Mac 4-cores is that your memory expansion is limited. However, since ProTools is still 32-bit and can't possibly address more than 4GB of memory, 6GB is the upper limit of...

Re: Anyone using iSCSI for session sharing?

Yes, but wrapping TCP around SCSI for transmission and unwrapping it still costs CPU cycles and latency. It depends, really, on how much bandwidth you're using. If I make a big rsync job over NFS...

Re: Anyone using iSCSI for session sharing?

You don't need fiber for SANmp. The iSCSI version works well and probably gives more tracks per seat than DDP because it's nearer to the metal (DDP adds a bit of protocol overhead for file-based...
