Default Re: play delay when using mojo?

Charles, what is your wait time for a session with only a single video track, no audio? From a SATA drive or a single Seagate ST373307 (10K) SCSI I see approx .6 seconds, and from a single Quantum 7.6K SCSI I see approx .8 seconds. Jon menioned the Playback buffer should be at Level 2. H/W buffer sizes that are very large can affect it slightly also. I've never, ever seen better than these numbers on my systems (with MOJO). I'm thinking that possibly you are suffering from a combo of slightly behind-the-curve cpu speed, slow video access time(arrays are better), and firewire drives. As I meant to say in my first post, it is all cummulative.

If others are able to get instantaneous playback then I am very jelous of them, but I'll have to see it for myself before I believe them.
