Multiclip Editing with DVCPRO HD

Multiclip Editing with DVCPRO HD
by Ingmar Lara on May 27, 2008 at 5:29:32 pm

I am editing with 3 camera angles, all shot on DVCPRO HD, and have created Mulitclips with them. The Multiclips play back fine, but when I create an edit in the sequence, I have to re-render the clip. This has never been an issue with DV. Is it possible to Multiclip edit in REALTIME with DVCPRO HD? I am using FCP 6.0.2. On a Dual-Core Intel, running on MAC OS X 10.5.1. Using 4GB of RAM. Let me know if anyone has any input. Much appreciated.

A faster RAID array will help greatly here. You cannot get 3 streams of DVCPRO HD in a multiclip via firewire. Two drive RAID 0 or better.

Agreed Shane. There isn't enough throughput on a firewire setup to handle the bandwidth required by 3 streams of DVCProHD. Add to that the fact there's most likely motion effects applied (since it's three streams we're talking about), and it's a lot for the computer to do. The demands only increase as you move up to 1080i.

Try turning off your realtime scopes.
(just control click on the scopes for the option).

anyone experiencing crashes editing DVCPRO HD?
multiclip sequences or not, even deleting clips causes a crash...
running FCP 6.0.3 with 720p60 codec - dual quad core Mac Pro 3.0 with three striped internal drives and 13 GB of RAM...any tips appreciated.
