Logic Pro X is stuttering video

I am having video playback problems with Logic Pro X. Video is stuttering and not playing back very well. I can load the same video into a LP9 project and the video playback is perfect.

MacBook Pro, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.4)

Brand new 12 core Mac Pro, 32 GB RAM, dual FireProD500 video cards, 500 GB boot drive, (running session from boot drive), two monitors connected via thunderbolt to mini-display port to dual port DVI and one TV connected via HDMI, still getting video lag. None of the suggestions here worked but the problem seems specific to certain projects and/or videos (converted to ProRes with no audio). Sync setting match frame rate.


Not playing video on TV seems to help.


This just totally s*cks. What's wrong with Apple?

Don't know as they are not normally here....

But, have you tried the open beta seed for 10.9.3 yet?

Note: For reasons related to the non disclosure agreement, as pointed out by one of the Mods here... I cannot tell you exactly what 10.9.3 fixes and what it doesn't. I can only recommend you try it for yourself. Make sure you back up your current System disk before doing so, as always when dealing with upgrades of any kind in regards to OS X

Just did a very quick test. Tried mp4 and Quicktime movies of previous film projects in Logic X. They were unworkable before with glitches/lag. Definitely the best it's been now after 10.0.7 update. Certainly workable.No noticable glitches/lag - then tried A/B test with Logic 9 using same films - Logic 9 playback still seems smoother to me with no delay in playback moving to different parts of film. Interested to hear other people's experiences with update.
