Constant Shut Down ...

Hello All,

Here's one which is worrying me more than a little bit ...

I took delivery of a brand new Mac Pro last week and have loaded up FCP Studio 3. In fact, that is the only 3rd Party software on it, the rest being Snow Leopard native.

I am editing in Pal and using a mixture of DV and P2 files (both 720 x 576) with the sequence setting as DV PAL 48k.

All the P2 and DV material has been loaded onto the scratch disc which is a RAIDT1 (split over 2 disks). The P2 in then 'logged and transferred' from that into FCP.

Every couple of minutes or so, the programme simply shuts down.

The report, which I can then send off to Apple, is enormous in length and one can hardly be expected to illustrate it here, it would fill up over a page.

However, it describes the following:

"Process: Final Cut Pro [433]

... at the bottom of the report it says:

When the programme crashes, there are NO FireWire Devices plugged in as all the footage is already isolated on the Raid disk.

Can anyone decipher what the system is telling me? I would be very grateful if someone could translate this.

If you need any further info, please holler as I'm more than a little concerned ...

Mac Pro 16GB, Mac OS X (10.6.2)
