"The effect XXX cannot be rendered in a sequence of this size with the current graphics card"
by Andrew Huebscher on Mar 4, 2008 at 5:28:48 am

I am getting this error message where XXX = "Color Solid" "Light Rays" "Bloom" "Overdrive" etc. The length of the sequence doesn't seem to matter, as I get this message even if the sequence is only 10 seconds long.

I have seen this error message in other posts, but there appears to be no working solution as of yet (or at least, my google skills maxed out). I'm wondering if I need a graphics card with 512MB of RAM. Is the nVidia 8800GT even available yet?

My specs:

Brand new Mac Pro Octo-Core 2.8 GHz
8GB RAM
Stock ATI HD 2600 XT (as far as I can tell, this is the most recommended card for this sys)
System drive = 320GB Sata
Media drive = internal 3 x SATA RAID (RAID 0) - suitable for ProRes certainly
Aja LHe
Sony PVM-14L5/1 and Eizo/HDlink monitoring
Mac OS 10.5.2
FCP 6.0.2
Color 1.0.2
QT 7.4.1

Thanks in advance.
