Good day. I have what I think is pretty good computer. It has an asus a7v333 board, an athlon 2.2xp cpu with 512 megs of ddr ram. I am running a video containing one video track with simple fades as well as 2 more audio tracks through as dv 29.27 with 48 mhz audio. The project is 18 minutes long and held on a separate 80 gig 7200 133 drive. I have a delta 1010lt sound card processing the audio. When I print to tape, I get 2 or 3 minutes of greatness followed by a bunch of jittery mess. I can hear the heard drives begin to read when the mess starts. I have rendered the tracks over and over. I have tried combining tracks. I have redone parts of the project. I have messed with the audio buffering. Always the same. I thought this rig would work very well for this kind of project. Am I expecting too much. I have nothing running in the background. I have ran an up to date virus protector and then shut it off. Any suggestions. Thanks for taking the time to read this.
