[Avid-L2] Issues with AVCHD100 files

 

L’ers –

 

Helping a customer who is having trouble playing back AVCHD 100 files shot on a Panasonic Pro camera.  It’s my first exposure to the system but supposedly it used to work fine and now doesn’t.

 

System specs: 3-4 year old HP z420, Win 7, 16GB RAM, Media Composer 7.0.6, G-Tech SAS connected storage (about 140 MB/sec) and an AJA Kona LHi

 

What I know:

 

            - there is a 942-memory training error that come up during boot, but that has supposedly been there for a while, trying to swap out half the RAM (two pairs of two different 4GB HP revs)

 

            - when playing the AVCHD 100 footage in a sequence the video will stutter and freeze, the audio will stutter and repeat pieces short phrases

           

            - watching the system resources it uses about 8GB of RAM but will go all the way up 100% of CPU

 

            - transcode the footage to DNxHD 115 and it plays fine

 

            - did the usual new project/user/bin/sequence check

 

When schedules allow I will reload the OS and start from scratch.  But any ideas/suggestions in the meantime are appreciated.

 

Thanx,
