Mbox2 --- buffer + Core Audio + Video playback ?
hello,
i bought an mbox2 a couple of days ago to work on school projects (video). i installed protools and it works, i can open sessions, do stuff, BUT, i have to set my buffer to 2048 to get a good track count/plugin use. now the big problem starts when i load in a video. just 1 verry small movie and the stereo soundfiles are to 'much' for my mac to handle... i have to put the buffer to 2048 to start playing the session, and even then it will stop after a couple of seconds. i bought the mac last friday and formatted the hard drives to have a fresh start. the only program installed is protools. the mac is a bit 'old' but know it is capable of handeling medium video projects. its a: G4 MDD Dual 1GHz 1.75 GB DDR SDRAM 2 HD's (2X 120GB) --> one system drive and one media drive. there where PCI cards in the mac, but i took them out to check protools. i did everything listed on the DUC to get it to work, reinstalled protools (4X), reinstalled mac OS 10.4, ... there is something strange about my problems. i think the are related to a digi coreaudio problem. when i open the manager it says 'unsupported hardware', but prolools works! in my system prefs i can choose the mbox2, i can listen to music with the mbox, ... BUT it freak out a verry simple video task... i dont know what to do to get it to work. any help would be verry nice! i search all over the net and read some french forum with related problems, but no solution... thanks alot in advance, xerox |
