Anyone have this problem? Sometimes my playback from the timeline, through firewire to a TV monitor is jerky and the preview screen in the GUI, which reads "Preview on External Monitor" during a straight-through playback, sometimes adds the red lettering "(Frame Recompressed)." I don't mean that it pops up as it normally should when playing anything other than untreated avi, such as when mpeg or a transition are playing, I mean at random--sometimes it pops on and sometimes not.
This is aggravating because it's hard to precisely time an edit when playback becomes jerky. I'm running a Dell P4 with 2.53Ghz processor and 533 bus, so it's not the system, I don't think. Could it be because I have two firewire drives plugged into the same PCI card? Each drive has part of the footage.
