As I said befor I'm just starting to know VT(2).

I have a dual Pentium IV sistem at 2Ghz.
1 GB of ram and enough memory in a 4 SCSI disk array.

Questions:

While one DDR is running do I supose to have another DDR ready in cue? (I'm asking this because I can't, in the moment I establish the second DDR in cue the first one start to fail the playback)

How many DDR's can I supose to have open at the same time?

Any Ideas?

Thanks.

Similar system here, and Yes, you should have no problem running 2 ddr's at the same time.
I just closed all other modules and ran a test and I made it to 4 separate ddr's running 4 different clips and switched between them. No stutters.
added a 5th ddr and clip and starting getting some stutters.
Any open modules cg, etc will clog it up.

Make sure you have run auto config, then start adjusting your settings yourself.
I dont use the ddr's much but this is where my settings are
(pic enclosed)

dual xeon 2.0 i gig ram
2 cheetahs scsi
very close to yours it sounds like.
You should be smokin with that system.

I try your configuration Jim_C and I steel have some freeze frames in the moment of the cut or transition, I run a Benchmark on the system and it pass all the tests so I steel think the problem is the toaster configuration.
