Well I hope it is somewhere between that and using terminal.

I have been haveing droped frames issues on playback, and I it seems to be happening when the computer is ideal for a bit. So I am wondering if this is why.

System Preferences:Energy Saver

There is a checkbox that says "Put the hard disk(s) to sleep when possible"

Do not check it.
