Help - wedding emergency!

[Guest]

Hey everyone out there....
I'm having problems with the storyboard playbacks. Especially when i try to record back into DV tape. The playback stutters. What is wrong? I have 256M RAM, is this not enough? I have closed everything! Please help, I'm putting together a video for a wedding that needs to be complete in 2 days! Any suggestions would be greatly greatly appreciated.

Hello there,

If you click on File > Save Movie and choose the DV-AVI option, does that file
stutter when you play it back?

If NO then that indicates a problem between your computer and camera. Check
that all cables and Firewire card are connected properly including making sure
that the firewire card is properly seated. You should also download the utility
WinDV from http://windv.mourek.cz/ This utility has two functions....the one
you are interested in is Sending your DV-AVI file to your camera.

If YES, then you have a system problem, OR, your computer is not fast enough.
If you have a good read of the FAQ's on my website and check out SPEED and Disk
Drives, you may find a solution

Free up space on your hard drive and do a defrag. If you don't notice an
improvement, check the Problem Solving > Checklist on my site.
