normaly DV...
I get arround this by using a external DVD player, and use a Video Input for that, is just testing things.
BTW we did install the v. 3.31 on a 10.4.4 Tiger G5 Cat and so far so good.
Also v4 is looking great, i did not had the time to play, but looks amazing.
Loved the 4 submixes.

when using a file imported from a dvd?Originally Posted by Gian
can you check what you did?
it makes a big difference.

and did you play back off internal or external hard drive?

catalyst is designed to preserve visual integrity and flow of images- NO DROPPED FRAMES - whatever else goes on in the computer.I know catalyst skips frames, and slow some movies to do not freeze, that is great feature,
It slows the playback down rather than skips frames.
Almost every other piece of playback software - DROPS Frames to do accurate timing.
this produces visual glitches.
Computers are not designed to playback video with a regular rhythm, they do many other things at the same time.
Outside of catalyst worlds - Normally these visual glitches do not matter.
But when playing back graphics or visual FX in the types of shows this has been used on - DROPPED frames can look really bad.

If you use one of the Audio playback modes, then it will keep accurate time.
Thanks, that's exactly what happens....
Regarding your questions, Yes i can check the Import on the regular Quicktime player, and either Internal or External drives....
whatr heppens is the second part, he does change the timming on the Catalyst, I did understood now, he does not Skip frames, thats why sometimes the video gets longer etc...
Thanks

quicktime player - does not work like catalyst in any way at all.Originally Posted by Gian
please describe the complete process you used to "import" your dvd.
video gets longer if the computer or hard disc is overloaded - it will not be overloaded playing back up to 4 layers with a scsi drive on a dual g5. or timing will change by only a few frames.Originally Posted by Gian
computers and their hard disc systems can vary between 5x and 10x performance.
a powerbook works very very differently from a dual g5 with scsi.
but a powerbook can be usable if you are careful.
