Why is playback on the video monitor through FireWire routing very jerky?
Make sure that the entire video playback window (the one displaying “Video Routed to FireWire”) is on the computer screen and doesn’t span multiple monitors or hang off the edge of the screen. You can reduce the size of the movie playback window to get it out of the way, and you can other windows overlapping it, but it must be completely on a single computer monitor or else the video card driver will severely impact playback performance. This jerkiness can also occur if you have both the Apple FireWire drivers and the Radius FireWire drivers both installed on your system. Also make sure that your computer monitor is set to “Thousands” or “Millions” of colors.
