Jynx Posted March 3, 2006 Share Posted March 3, 2006 I was able to install FC5 without editing any version check's, install check's..etc. I have my DV cam connected via Firewire. I open FC5, the screen on my cam flickers when FC5 starts initializing then FC5 just closes... Anyone else continuing to use FC5 in 10.4.5?

antic Posted March 4, 2006 Share Posted March 4, 2006 Run FC5 before you connect your DV cam. If you have it connected prior to running it will crash every time Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/10872-final-cut-5-1045/#findComment-68237 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jynx Posted March 4, 2006 Author Share Posted March 4, 2006 Ok turned off the cam. Opened FC5. Says "did not detect the external firewire device...etc" Turned on the cam. Pressed "check again" Screen flashes on cam...FC5 closes... Even if I keep the cam off and hit "continue" to set the external device to "none" it closes still.

miguelcerca Posted March 5, 2006 Share Posted March 5, 2006 Where can this info.plist be found? I am at a loss. It won't let me run it due to the PCI problem. the info.plist file can be found by control clicking or right clicking on the final cut pro application - show package contents then go into the contents folder and there is your info.plist file Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/10872-final-cut-5-1045/#findComment-69429 Share on other sites More sharing options...

relin Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 I am having the same issue , however, I do not have the AGP option in my Info.plist this is what I have <key>AELMinimumRAMSize</key> <string>512</string> <key>AELRequiredCPUType</key> <string>G4</string> <key>AELMinimumCPUSpeedSingle</key> <string>500</string> <key>AELRequiredIOPCIDevice</key> <string>AGP Quartz Extreme</string> <key>AELMinimumOSVersion</key> <string>10.3.9</string> <key>AELMinimumQuickTimeVersion</key> <string>7.0</string> <key>AEPCopyFiles</key> Where it does say AGP I have tried chaning it to PCI but it doesn't make a difference. For me it crashes right after it tells me I do not have anything connected in my firewire port and I click continue.
