• The Mac-Forums Community Guidelines (linked at the top of every forum) are very clear, we respect US law and court precedence when it comes to legality of activity.

    Therefore to clarify:
    • You may not discuss breaking DVD or BluRay encryption, copying, or "ripping" commercial, copy-protected DVDs.
    • This includes DVDs or BluRays you own. Even if you own the DVD or BluRay, it is still technically illegal under the DMCA to break the encryption. While some may argue otherwise, until the law is rewritten or the US Supreme Court strikes it down, we will adhere to the current intent of the law.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying unprotected movies or homemade DVDs.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying tools in the context that they are used for legal purposes as outlined in this post.

Choppy playback in viewer (FCE HD)

Did a quick search but didn't really find what I was looking for. I was using Final Cut Express HD yesterday for he first time and making a little movie out of clips shot from a canon digital camera (vga resolution, 30fps). Most of the time, the playback of video in the viewer window (not canvas) was choppy. I have a pretty decent Macbook. Is there some setting that I have to play with?

thanks!
