Hi

i wish to work with HP xw8200, MN 4.1.6 and MCS 3.5/3.5.1.

Thw xw8200 is a supported workstation, and the readme of MCS 3.5 says that MN 4.1.6 is a supported version on MN for the software.

Iv'e installed a clean install of MC  3.5 on several PC's and i can't watch a sequnce in Avid, without it frezzing up several times during play. i'm running a 15:1s footage.

on MC 3,3.05 and 3.1.1 everthing working great. on MC 3.5/3.5.1 the avid just freeze someting like 5 min. after i try to play a sequence.

my Nvida, QT, and Media player are all set acoording the readme file of 3.5

any idea?

Thanks

5 bucks sez you are using the onboard ethernet NIC and a DNA of some kind.

Which means you violated the rules of Bus segmentation on the 8200, foul..  10 yard penalty   Do you have an Intel PCI-X nic card handy?

i'm using the onboard ethernet NIC and a a PYRO IEEE 1394 for DNA connection.

The IEEE 1394 is placed in appropriate slot. (slot 2 or 3 of the xw8200)

Toss a PCI-X intel MT nic in the box,  one of the lowest slots,  then connect your DNA to the onboard.

I will give it a try and let you know.

Thanks

What version of the client are you running?  You may need to be on 5.1.2 (while still running 4.1.6 on the Unity itself).

Not for 4.1.6 on this box.

i tried using client version 4.1.1, 4.1.5, 4.1.6 and 5.1.1. all were no good. i ordered a MT nic card, i will have it in a few days.

Thanks

And did you ever find a solution? Or is this one of avid's glitches?

Intel MT nic card is the solution!!!
