Well I've been beating my head against something trying to get some non-trashed output from RedCine on my home system.
Specs.
Dual core 6600
4 Gigs ram
ATI X1950 w/updated drivers
In an earlier version I could get some QT output without overlays but nothing but highly posterized and black frames now.
We have it on an 8 core mac at work and it's perfect.
edit: it is trashed on everything QT, DPX, TIFFs etc.

[Maz Mawlawi]

same issues her with trashed output.
Windows XP Pro, Service pack 2
Intel Quad core
4GB Ram
ATI Radeon HD3870 (tried different drivers)

I also get trashed output (black frames or "rainbowed color" frames) from a latptop running a quadro NVS140 also on XP

ati 9600 doesn´t work.
nvidia 6600 doesn´t work.
any Matrox doesn´t work.
chipset P-series intel doesn´t work.
chipset nvidia 610/630 doesn´t work.

Seagate ST912082 SCSI HD
Vista Home Prem. 23-bit
REDCine v1.0.3 (Build 82)

6-second interface freezes (presumably caused by frame updates) with REDCine in "1/4 medium" resolution mode. Even longer delays at higher resolutions

Stable and works well when multiple displays are set to horizontal span. Will not render out files when multiple displays are set to "dualview".
