Re: Question about AJA and Leopard.

No, this would not be real time. You have to render anything with
drop shadows or transparencies. One of the shortcomings of FCP.
It doesn't matter how fast your system or Drive array, FCP just won't do
some things real time AT ALL. And even if it plays back the tracks
in real time, you'll still have to render the entire sequence to edit to tape
or make a quicktime to export.

On the positive side, the rendering is much faster now with the 8 core machines. And if you are making a quicktime for internet upload for instance, once you drop that quicktime into Compressor, it will render 4 times faster than before by setting up a virtual cluster on your 8 core. It's amazing to watch it render an h.264
clip now. One that used to take 30 minutes now takes 6.
So it's not all bad, but FCP could really benefit from a new engine for
real time playback that is really real time.
