FYI

Amazingly RedCine works on my lowly, budget laptop

REDCINE - 3.18
OS - VISTA Home 32bit
CPU - Single: AMD Turion(tm) 64 Mobile Technology MK-36
Memory - 2GBs
Graphics - ATI Radeon Xpress 1100 128MB
HD - Single 60GB

Just playing with the drag racing clips - all picture controls work fine, can export as Tiff, Jpeg and Quicktime H.264 mov (had to install latest Quicktime Player, 7.6) BUT they ALL appear as if they have a white fill ~30% transparency applied???? (otherwise perfect) Snapshots are OK.

Plays the 4K drag clip very slowly - about quarter speed at 1/4 Res Medium (hardly surprising).

NOT WORKING (fixed, see below)

Dual Opteron 250 (BL Troy core CPUs)
4GB Registered ECC RAM
Tyan S2875 board (AMD 8111/8151 chipset)
nVidia 7600GS / 256MB / AGP
Fresh XP pro install, SP3 + hotfixes
Tried both 175.19 and 93.71 vid drivers, same problem
Tried both REDCINE 318 and 315, same problem

Upon launch, redcine will show the logo screen and version number, and soon thereafter hard-locks the computer. I have to push the reset button. The log files end at different places each time I try this, which is very weird. It's like it's locking up not at a particular point of loading the app, but whenver it gets around to initializing some outside softare/hardware. No clue yet. Otherwise the system runs fine.

UPDATE - WORKING
Changed out the video card for an nVidia 6800GT. Redcine now launches and I can work with it, tho it has locked up a few times. Will see how that shakes out over time. I chalk this one up to a flakey video card.
