7.0.1 "Upgrade" = Dropped Frames. Where is the Apple commercial guy now?

I've wasted 3 hours of my morning trying to correct this issue so far, so any help is appreciated. I "upgraded" to FCS 7.0.1. Now, I can't play more than 5 seconds of video without getting the dropped frames error pop-up. I've tried re-rendering, etc. but to no avail. I have G-speed drives, 2.8 MHz quad-core, and AJA Kona 3 (driver 7.1) card, and it worked fine with the older FCS software. The problem only started after the "upgrade".
I have a problem with Apple working on so many fringe FCS features when they don't have the core functionality under control. Seems a bit idiotic to me as a medical doctor (kind of like trimming a patient's fingernails instead of working on their cardiac arrest). Even the search window isn't showing correctly in this forum (look in upper right corner) on Safari. Amazing...

Went through the entire process with AJA Kona 3 tech support (great people who actually know their product line). It is definitely a problem with the FCP 7.0 software. Apple has a great idea = sell you buggy software and then charge you money to talk to them about it! Fantastic!
When I re-render a segment, it will play without dropped frames the first 2 or 3 times, but then reverts to giving a dropped frame error.
Again, would be great to see Apple fix the core functionality of FCS (like not losing track of a music clip, or making sure the motion tab window refreshes properly when grabbing/moving an opacity edit point) instead of the silly fringe functions.
I'll try the fresh install and then re-render all my high-def work. Always great to lose 2 days (will take at least that long to re-render) after paying $299 for an "upgrade" from Apple. Unhappy New Year.

    Hi Chris.
    It's asking you for my apple id password. not going to give that out, sorry.
    However I did try this projector on my mother in laws iphone 4 and on my old iphone 3. ipico software isn't needed. plug and play any video through standard movie player or camera saved video.
    I tried on my girls iphone 5 with the adapter. The ipico software and projector doesn't work on this phone.
    Hope this helped you. Better to buy a used iphone 3 or 4 and use it for video storage.
    I also found that the battery on these projectors are a joke (30-60mins max). I rigged a longer lasting battery on the outside and keep it plugged in while using. This doesn't charge the phone though so I replaced the battery in the old iphone 3 and now get at least a full length movie from it. Great in bed projected onto the ceiling.

    Where is the $2 coupon for NOW that's what I call music 55?

    This is a user-to-user forum; no one from Apple participates. However, what we do know is the tracks in your iTunes library are matched to the tracks that are available (but sometimes not visible for sale) in your "store of record." So, they are matching to tracks in the UK iTunes Store.
    Darren Link wrote:
    Is there any way of ensuring that all future Now purchases 100% match to the compilation album on the iTunes Store. 
    No. The tracks will match, if they do match, to what they match to. We, as users, have no control over the process.

    Could be a defective battery, you should get it checked by visiting an Authorized Apple Service Provider or Apple Store next to your place.

  • Plagued by drop frames - Part Deux!  Can you guys help again?

    Ok... I spoke too soon. The drop frame errors are back again! This time, I have documented when and where they happen and some "quirks" that go along with it.
    1 - Problem happens even when RT is in Safe with frame rate and video quality set to low. Video clips have a 3 band color correction and proc amp filter engaged.
    2 - Seems to happen when I add chan 3 and 4 a stereo music track. The track is converted to aiff in itunes and then placed into the capture scratch folder, then imported into a bin and placed on the timeline.
    3 - One way to get the problem to "correct" itself is to click on to the desktop and then click back into FCP. The problem will correct itself but eventually freeze up again.
    4 - As some members will attest, I have tried everything short of a full system restore. The drive media is captured to is a sata 73200 rpm drive (more than half full) that is on the lower "B" bus of the internal. The "a" bus is the OSX operating drive. No media is on it.
    5 - I have trashed prefs, tweaked environmental settings and swung a dead cat at the tower. Same problem is intermittent. Just when I think I have done something that seems to fix the problem, it comes back usually when I add chan 3 and 4.
    6 - I am capturing audio and video in the same file on the same drive. Should it be separated? Should drive be partitioned?
    7 - What about "limit data rate" I heard it isn't needed unless on a network.
    Should I call a priest or what?
    matt

    Your configuration doesn't make sense - DV is 720x480 and 29.97 fps. But, having said that, it doesn't matter so much so long as your sequence settings match your clip settings. Or, to put it another way, if you up your settings to High (for Playback Quality) and Full (for Playback Frame Rate), do you get some type of render line? Green? Yellow? Orange?
    After having skimmed through the previous thread you started, you just might be having some type of issue with how the files are (physically) written on your hard drive. The only surefire way to correct that is to copy your media files over to a third drive, use Disk Utility to wipe you media drive (format Mac OS Extended), then copy your media files back over your freshly formatted media drive. (and I know that's not a quick procedure but, hey, it beats throwing your G5 out of a window
    Before you try that though, can you tell us what your real-time audio settings are in your User Preferences?

  • Why does Premiere Pro stop, or drop frames when using the Timecode Effect.

    The Timecode Effect is gpu accelerated, the render bar is yellow and it still drops frames.
    If it drops frames on a yellow bar, how can I ever trust it to print to tape? It wouldn't be a problem if I could say render the yellow sections of my edit, but it won't because the bar is not red. Very frustrating!
    Running 64bit windows 7;
    gtx470 graphics card;
    12GB of memory (9 reserved for Premiere)
    Raid 0 _ Speed Tested Excellent
    working with uncompressed black magic 1080i AVI's
    It seems to happen when I have overlapping clips with the Timecode Effect on one or both. Plays fine if just a single clip with the effect.
    Any help would be great, hopefully I'm just missing something simple..

    Harm,
    Here is a capture of my speed test. I do have 4 disks on a raid 0, very little data on the drives. I have run 3 tracks of HD with different levels of opacity with no problem. I do crash the drives when I add the forth. So I would like to think that two tracks with accelerated effect should be fairly simple to playback. Am I wrong to be thinking that way? Also only working with 8 bit, This test is for 10 and up.
    The read comes in above 500 mb/s. It was on the way up when I captured it.

    They're in the same location as before, but you need to use a method such as choosing Go to Folder from the Finder's Go menu and providing ~/Library/Application Support/ as the path.
