Will the new MB pro do 1080p in iTunes

I'm using an iMac and a Mini to play video on an external tv/beamer. I use iTunes because it suports the ICC profiling and lets me calibrate the display in a perfect and easy way! (plex and xbmc don't support ICC).
My problem is that the Mini can't play a mkv that is transcoded to iTunes and is 1080p. It stutters a little. Even the newest Mini was not able to play the 1080p which was confirmed in an Apple store under iTunes. It was the 2 GB model but after a few seconds the picture would totally freeze half a second. Very disapointing, my late 2009 was better or at least the same .
My question is would upgrading the Mini to the MB pro solve this problem.
The experiment with Mini has cost me 10% of the selling price allready so I don't take the risk and take it home any more
Thanks!

To answer my own question for the record and interested.
I have a Macbook Pro 15 inch now and it plays 1080p@60 on my external beamer perfect. However 1080p@24 still judders. No surprise you'll say but I'm talking about playing in iTunes and that code seems less optimised than VLC by example. Therefore I suspect the 24p judder to be a code performance problem. I tried making a bug report to Apple. Hopefully quicktime and the video core are going to be revised in the new OS version. If not I have to stick to 1080p@60 and that looks great!
So I'm happy for the time being

  • Will the new premiere pro edit and save changes to avchd losslessly?

    Hi,
    I want to buy a new premiere elements to replace my old one (vrsn 3), can I upgrade it still or is it too old? Or should I still stick to Premiere elements?
    Also, will the new premiere pro edit and save changes to avchd files from Panasonic and Canon without losing any quality?
    I came across 'provides native support for avchd'; what does it mean? Does it mean that I can edit and save avchd files with out losing quality?
    Thanks,

  • Will the new Mac Pro support VMware fusion?

    We've all been waiting patiently for the new Mac Pro. Is VMware Fusion 6.x going to be compatible?

    Does VMware Fusion run on Mavericks?  Assume the new MacPro ships "Real Soon Now", then Mavericks will be the operating system, and genrally speaking that is more important then the actual Mac.
    If you have a Mac running Mavericks AND if VMware Fusion runs there, then it should run on the new MacPros, but until the new MacPro actually ships, no one can be sure.
    And if VMware does not work, there is always Parallels and VirtualBox.

  • Will the new mac pro support a vga display thru the thunderbolt expansion?

    We are getting ready to purchase mac pro, but we need to drive a small vga display from thunderbolt.  Is this possible, and will it use the mini-display to VGA adaptor?

    Of course. Thunderbolt (and Thunderbolt 2) supports Mini DisplayPort adapters to connect external displays, so get a Mini DisplayPort to VGA adapter and a VGA cable to connect the Mac Pro to the external display. Image will start showing in the external display after connecting it.

  • Will the new macbook pro retina's have a dedicated graphics card?

    I know that Intel released their new Haswell processors that are energy efficient but I want that graphics power of dedicated graphics. It wouldn't be cool if the Macbook Pro Retina basically gets a downgrade in graphics. I am however all for duel graphics like the current models have.

    Nobody can answer this question, unfortunately.

  • Using the New Mac Pro (can) - AE will not let me use Race Traced 3-D

    Using the New Mac Pro (can) - AE will not let me use Race Traced 3-D
    Hi, I'm using the new Mac Pro
    2.7 GHz 12-core Intel Xeon E5
    64 GB 1867 MHz DDR3
    AMD FirePro D700 6144 MB
    OSX 10.9.2
    I'm using After Effects 12.2.1.5
    When I attempt to invoke the race trace 3D renderer in a comp, I get this error
    "After Effects Error: Ray-traced 3D: Out of paged mapped memory for ray tracer. Your project may exceed GPU limits. Try closing other applications. Try updating the CUDA driver. (5070::2)"
    My preferences are set to use the CPU for Raytraced 3D since I do not have an Nvidia card.
    So, obviously there is an issue here in that it thinks I have an Nvidia card.
    I know (or assume I know) the cause for this is that when I set up this machine, I used Apple's migration assistant to move most of my data over from the previous gen Mac Pro which DID have a CUDA card.
    So my question is, what files can I delete/reset to cause After Effects to no longer look for CUDA files that do not exist on this machine?
    I do not have the CUDA control panel in System Prefs, so THAT did not carry over.
    Any ideas would be appreciated, thanks!

    > I know (or assume I know) the cause for this is that when I set up this machine, I used Apple's migration assistant to move most of my data over from the previous gen Mac Pro which DID have a CUDA card.
    Ugh. That causes so many problems.
    The first thing to try is deleting the CUDA frameworks from your Mac: Look in /Library/Frameworks for the CUDA.Framework and get rid of it.

  • Will the new 10.6.8 update fix SATA3 issues related with 2011 MacBook Pros?

    Will the new 10.6.8 update fix SATA3 issues related with 2011 MacBook Pros?

    It is against TOU to speculate on these message board.  Suggest you post your question on the Mac Rumors site.
    As I already stated, there is no 10.6.8 update.  If there was, it would be listed in Software Update.

  • Will my LED 27 Cinema Display work with the new Mac Pro?

    Will my LED 27 Cinema Display work with the new Mac Pro?

    Mini DisplayPort (like 27" LED Cinema Display) is a direct subset of ThunderBolt (like Mac pro late 2013). It plugs right in and the display portion "just works", no adapters required.

  • Will the new final cut pro x work with my Final cut pro version 6.0.6 data

    will the new final cut pro x work with my Final cut pro version 6.0.6 data

    Thanks Tom.
    So I will need  upgrade to FCP 7 first, then convert to an XML file in 6.0.6, then convert to another file that FCP X can read? I have a lot of half done projects that need finishing. Is this process very complex and time consuming?
    Maybe I should be approaching this from a different angle. The reason I am asking is that I now need to upgrade to a new Mac book pro and have been told that I cant run final cut pro 6.0.6 on the new models using maverick. Is this true?

  • I urgently need to know how I can connect 8 thunderbolt display, I was thinking with the new mac pro will come out, but I wonder if it is possible to connect an iMac to 4GB of graphics card, but suffers from the imac. thanks

    I tightened all HD screws and it didn't help. With the machine running and side of the case off, I physically stopped both the video card fan and the front case fan with my finger for a couple seconds and the noise continued. I also took all hard drives out one by one and rebooted each time. Again, the noise continued until I took out the Mac HD in Bay 1, rebooted, and I had a very quiet, silent machine. The issue is the hard drive in bay 1 that shipped with the computer, it's without a doubt causing the hum/woosh sound. I still need to know if I can safely swap the Mac HD from bay 1 to bay 4 without any issues to the operating system. I would like to try that to see if it dampens the noise but I also want to make sure this swap won't screw up my machine at all.

  • Will there be an anti-glare screen for the new MacBook Pro?

    will there be an anti-glare screen for the new MacBook Pro?

    Hi j,
    Apple rarely announces upcoming hardware upgrades, so we'll probably just have to wait and see if that's something that happens in the future with the retina line. In the meantime, you can express your desire for one here: http://www.apple.com/feedback/

  • Will the new chargers work with my MacBook Pro?

    I got my MacBook Pro in December 2007 and yesterday the charger broke. The cord that connects to the magnetic piece ripped off completely.
    My question is, will the new chargers apple currently sells work with my late 2007 MacBook Pro?

    Yes, see the attached article.  Near the bottom is this quote:
    Note: Although the replacement adapter may not have the same connector shape ("T" or "L") or wattage as the original adapter that came with your computer, newer adapters should power and charge your MacBook, MacBook Pro, or MacBook Air just like the adapter that originally came with your computer.
