Q: Final Cut Pro X 10.1 Breaks Clip Analysis Playback on 2009 Mac Pro
Everything was going well until I upgraded, since then I've been down the rabit whole in trying to troubleshoot the problem.
Machine
Early 2009 Mac Pro Dual CPU Quad Core 2.26Mhz
20GB RAM
4 x Hard drives
3 x Nvida graphics cards
6 x 22" IPS LED Displays
When I'm in Final Cut Pro X 10.1 single window layout, any clip that is not in the storyline and I try to preview does not play correctly. The video stutters, but the audio is fine. If I put the viewer on another window, it works.
I've done every possible troubleshooting step, even to the point of re-installing my whole system twice and removing every possible 3rd party conflict.
The upgrade doesn't like something with Nvida and the multiple video card/display setup.
Someone at Apple please look into this, it's real pain, especially after just purchasing this expensive piece of software.
Mac Pro, OS X Mavericks (10.9)
