So, would this really work? I just need to use 8 layers or so, and have a MacPro with 4 drives in it
unfortunately at the moment - the operating system and quicktime dont work like this - this technique doesnt work - i do keep checking - i first tested this over 5 years ago-

the time for movie playback is single threaded and accumulative - so its as slow as the worst performing drive.
