Black frames with v108

[georgewde]

No matter what I try the output frames are all black.
Windows XP / Redcine 108 / NVidia FX 1400 display card
I used the space shuttle launch shot, scaled it 80%, repositioned, some color correction, project is 1080p24, output as still sequence, jpeg, tif - doesn't matter, it renders happily but all I get is black frames. I run the same test in Vista 64 but no difference.

Very similar machine specs, same result

I should add:
Its an 8core system with dual X5355, 4 gig memory, Quicktime version 7.45

New WinXP system install. Installed only Redcine and Quicktime 7.3.1. Now I'm getting error "Failed to write frame". No output files are produced. I tried using different directories including the system drive and set permissions and ownership. But....... no luck. Could it be that build v108 just doesn't work with 8core machines?

Change video card to Quadro or 8800

Andrew,
Currently I'm using FX1400 but I'd get the Quadro FX3700 card if I knew it will solve the problem- can you recommend that one? I need to run Avid v3 on the same machine.
