[QUOTE="giulio, post: 516912, member: 28677"] It doesn't sound like a ram or cpu issue. I'd bet the farm it's Time Machine and Quicktime fighting for hdd acces. TM wants to read files to back up, QT wants to read it's video file. A sorta-solution would be to have quicktime use a much larger buffer for the video. The video stored in ram would not be affected by time machine's heavy disk usage. [/QUOTE]
