WinXp ou WIn2000 Pro avec NX HDV

Bonjour à vous, je me suis commander la suite NX avec HDV et daprès vous, sur WinXP Pro Service pack 2 esce que ca fonctionne bien? ou je suis mieux avec windows 2000.

Merci

 

D'autres vont te le confirmer .. mais c'est Windows XP Service pack 2 qui convient ...
Bertrand

 

Oui, en rétablissant le bug du firewire par le patch... et avec un OS propre, quel qu'il soit par ailleurs...

 

Parfais merci de votre aide, elle est bien précieuse car presentement je travail encore avec SR5.51 et Digisuite et depuis que je suis sur Windows XP cest 5 fois plus lent a travailler et ouvrir les projets.

Je ne veux surtout pas avoir ce meme trouble.

Merci encore.
Mike

 

Oui mais Xp en l'état est gourmand, il faut le"chatrer" pour retrouver toute la vitalité de ton Pc...!!!

Citationde Bertrand :

Comment ??? Peut tu donner plus de precisions ??? :amour:

 

Ok, cest quoi les astuces afin doptimiser XP pour une meuilleurs performances en audio-video?

Merci

 

Voici un guide, en anglais malheuresement pour optimiser un PC pour l'audio (donc pas mal de trucs adaptables à la vidéo)...

Mon conseil : en premier bien entendu, avoir une install fraiche, juste l'os, les pilotes, vos softs (si besoin créer un multiboot pour plusieurs utilisations du pc)... Désactiver dans le panneau de configuration tout ce qui est automatismes (windows update, etc...)... pour la suite :


PC OPTIMIZATION GUIDE for Windows XP desktops & laptops (updated 12/31/04)

These tips and tricks have been tested out and have proved successful in many occasions.
If you follow this document to the "T" you will have your system in true
optimum performance. They are listed in decending importance.

There is a list of acronyms used in this guide at the bottom of the guide.

1) It is recommended for all Windows XP machines to change your pro audio card's
buffer size to approximately 128 in its control panel. Typical defaults are 512
and 1024. Check your manual for where this setting is. There is a very desirable
side effect of this as well - it drastically lowers latency in the audio system.
If you are using Cakewalk Sonar without ASIO drivers (version 2.1 and below), you'll
want to re-run the Wave Profiler after this step.


* Always use ASIO drivers if your application and sound card support it. In most
instances, it will improve latency and stability.

* Pro Tools may require a buffer size of 256 or 512.


2) USB Mice - In almost ALL cases, USB mice cause audio stability issues, it is
highly recommended to either use a USB to PS/2 adapter for your USB mouse or to
simply get a PS/2 (round connector) mouse. USB keyboards seem to have no ill effects
on audio applications and can be used without problems.


Wireless keyboard and mouse combinations, ether USB or PS/2, often cause problems
with audio software. We recommend using a wired PS/2 mouse and keyboard.

3) Antivirus, Spyware, and Firewall software
Make sure NEVER to run antivirus/spyware/firewall software while using pro-audio
applications as it can drastically reduce performance. Also, disable Antivirus software
during installation of software, it can keep the program from installing properly.
You can and probably should typically launch the AV software if you go on the internet.

4) Some other BIOS settings to try
With many new features appearing on current motherboards, you should disable these
and then re-enable them one-at-a-time to find out if they are causing a problem.
You may not have all or any of these options.

Hyperthreading - Pentium 4s of 2.4gHz and higher only - many programs do not support
Hyperthreading, and in fact, some won't operate properly with it enabled (MON COMMENTAIRE : DESACTIVER IMPERATIVEMENT L'HYPERTHREADING AVEC UN BI-PROC)
Intel built-in ethernet - Only on Intel boards, known to sometimes cause problems
IDE or SATA RAID - on many motherboards

5) Multimedia Settings. ** Very important for SONAR & PRO TOOLS **

* This step should not be done if you use CoolSchool and have no other audio card
in your system.
Go to START MENU, SETTINGS, CONTROL PANEL, SOUNDS & AUDIO DEVICES.
Select the SOUNDS tab, select No Sounds and answer NO to "Save current scheme?"
Select HARDWARE tab, select your pro audio card wave driver & hit PROPERTIES.
Go to the PROPERTIES tab, expand the device, double-click the newly listed device
and checkmark the box "DO NOT MAP THROUGH THIS DEVICE" and hit OK.
This will disallow Windows from using your audio card while you're in a recording
program. If you have a Soundblaster-compatable card still installed, Windows will
now use it for Windows sounds.

6) Check for Windows XP Service Pack 1. Please note as of Sept'04, Service Pack
2 is not recommended for MOST software and causes issues.
Right-click on MY COMPUTER, select PROPERTIES.
This will display Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition and on the 2nd line, Service
Pack 1 if you have it.

If you have Service Pack 2, you can try to uninstall it in Control Panel - Add/Remove
Programs. If it is not listed or will not install, you will need to contact Microsoft
support for instructions on how to remove it.
If you do not have Service Pack 1, we recommend you download it at http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/downloads/updates/sp1/default.mspx
(this site was valid as of Dec'04). This download is 133mb, so we recommend finding
a high-speed internet connection and a cd burner for this task, or you can order
a CD from Microsoft. Download the 32-bit version, not the 64-bit version. Select
the Network install, which contains all of the updates in a single file for burning
to CD. The Express install will attempt to install Service Pack 2.

7) Disable Virtual Memory, Visual Effects, System Restore, Auto Updates, Remote
Control, and Error Reporting.
Right-click MY COMPUTER, select PROPERTIES.
Click the ADVANCED tab, click ERROR REPORTING (at the bottom).
Checkmark DISABLE ERROR REPORTING and hit OK.
Under Performance, click SETTINGS.
Select ADJUST FOR BEST PERFORMANCE.
Click the ADVANCED tab, under Processor Scheduling, select Background Services.
Under Virtual Memory, click CHANGE.
Select each drive letter shown, and select NO PAGING FILE and press SET.
Hit OK twice.
Click the SYSTEM RESTORE tab, and checkmark the DISABLE SYSTEM RESTORE.
Click the AUTOMATIC UPDATES tab, and uncheck Keep My Computer Up to date.
Click the REMOTE tab, and uncheck both boxes that say Allow (this may already be
done).
Hit OK and reboot.

8) Make sure no extra programs are started up when you launch Windows.
Go to your START MENU, RUN, type MSCONFIG and hit OK.
Select STARTUP tab, and deselect everything.
If there is a question about an item, disable it. You can always re-enable it simply
by checking the box in the future and rebooting.


* Some programs NOT to disable: MMERefresh if you have Pro Tools or MSG32 if you
have Gigastudio.

9) Check your sound hardware/software manufacturers' websites for updates. Many
times an updated driver is the simple solution for an error. Be aware of beta (not
fully tested) drivers and updates.

10) Motherboard chipsets - VIA and INTEL
The chipset on your motherboard can be as important as the actual processor because
all the data to and from the processor goes through this chipset. Intel chips are
recommended because of their dependability.

If you're unsure which chipset your motherboard has, you can go into Device Manager
and open System Devices, and look for your CPU-to-AGP or CPU-to-PCI bridge. The
brand name of this device (Intel, AMD, VIA, SIS, ALI, or nVIDEA) will tell you what
type of motherboard you have.

If you have a VIA chipset on your motherboard (VIA makes chipsets for both Athalon
and Intel PIII/P4/Celeron systems), you should download the 4-in-1 drivers which
include updates for Windows at http://www.viatech.com/.


If you have an INTEL chipset (HIGHLY recommended that you use Intel for best performance
and compatability), you may want to update the chipset drivers for Windows. Go to
Intel.com, Support & Downloads, Chipsets, Chipset software, and download and
install the Intel Application Accelerator and Intel Chipset Software Installation
Utility. Select your version of Windows and download these to a new folder (recommended).
The updates will only install if needed and if they are compatible with your motherboard.
This will update the Windows access to the features of the motherboard.

* If it simply shows devices without model numbers or names like CPU-to-AGP bridge,
or Standard PCI bus and basically does not specifically state a name, Windows does
not know what you have and cannot operate efficiently. You will need to check another
way to find out what chipset you have, download the proper updates to it, and install
them. It is important Windows knows the best way to communicate with all of your
hardware.

11) Hard drive DMA.
Direct Memory Addressing, or DMA, allows a device to access your RAM directly without
taking CPU recources. For hard drives, this will greatly increase disk throughput
and reduce CPU load, and usually causes a very noticable increase in overall system
speed.
Most Windows XP systems will have this enabled and working by default, but it is
worth checking to achieve maximum performance.
Right-Click MY COMPUTER, select PROPERTIES.
Select the HARDWARE tab, and DEVICE MANAGER and look for IDE ATA/ATAPI Controllers
and double-click on Primary IDE channel, select Advanced Settings. Check your Transfer
Mode, it should say DMA if available. Current Transfer Mode Setting should say DMA
and then some mode number, higher numbers indicate faster transfer speed. If you
see PIO mode in the Current Transfer Mode but you have DMA if available selected,
you likely have a cabling problem with your hard drives. Some possible cures are
(and you may have to consult your local computer guru): changing from Cable Select
to Master/Slave designation, moving your hard drives to different cables, or even
cable replacement. In a newer system (PIII or greater), you should have the ATA-66
cable, which has twice as many conductors as a standard ATA or IDE cable. This will
ensure the fastest possible DMA speed your hard drive and hard drive controller
support. Generally, the newer your system and hard drive are, the faster DMA mode
it will support.


12) If you use Internet Explorer, limit the cache size
In Internet Explorer, go to Tools - Internet Options - General - Temporary Internet
Files Settings, and reduce the Amount of Disk Space to Use to 1MB. This will reduce
Internet Explorer's saving of past web pages from 10% of your drive (this default
option can be huge if you have a large hard drive!). It will save disk space and
drastically reduce the number of files on your hard drive.

13) Services * For Advanced Users ONLY *
Typically, a Windows XP machine will have anywhere from 10-25 services (background
programs) running. While some of these are needed for Windows, some are not. This
step is for advanced users but typically no harm will come to the computer from
disabling services, but functionality may be compromised. It's best to know a little
about what each service does before disabling it.
To get to the services, go to Start - Run and type Services.msc and click OK. Expand
the window to full-screen to make it more readable. You may want to click on the
column header Status once or twice to list services first that are 'Started' (running).
These are usually the services to consider for disabling. Double-click any in question
and choose Disable. You can usually start or stop a service on-the-fly without restarting.
A few services cannot be disabled and will tell you so. You may wish to keep a record
of which services you disable just in case you find later that you have disabled
something you need. For example, to do any Windows updates, there are several services
which need to be running, and doing updates will simply fail without giving a reason
why. So if any programs simply don't seem to work correctly after disabling services,
you should look at what has been disabled. It is highly recommended to make a list
of the services you have altered so you can re-enable them if needed.

14) LAPTOPS ONLY
Laptops often are a special case for troubleshooting hardware conflicts because
of the inability to move hardware to different slots. If your laptop does not exhibit
IRQ sharing, start with disabling hardware you don't use (like a modem if you use
ethernet, firewire if you're not using it, etc.) If your laptop has all devices
sharing IRQ11, you'll likely need to disable all non-critical devices and add them
back one at a time. The best way to disable devices is to disconnect them from your
computer, and for built-in devices to disable them in the BIOS (see above for how
to get into the BIOS). However, most laptops do not have the option to disable all
devices in the BIOS, so you may need to disable the devices in Windows Device Manager
(see above again). If this is the only way to disable the devices on your laptop,
it will usually work fine.


15) * This step is not usually needed, you can bypass this step unless you feel
you have IRQ conflicts *

Right-Click MY COMPUTER, select PROPERTIES.
Select the HARDWARE tab, and DEVICE MANAGER.
Go to VIEW, select RESOURCES BY CONNECTION, expand INTERRUPT REQUEST.

This will show you a complete list of all the IRQs in use. If you see more than
2 devices on the same number as your audio card, you might have an IRQ conflict.

Any device can, without problem, share with IRQ holder for PCI steering, or ACPI
IRQ holder for PCI IRQ steering. Some other devices that will not usually cause
problems are System Management Bus or SMBus, and SCI IRQ used by ACPI Bus.

Devices to watch out for (especially when they're sharing the sound card's IRQ)
are:
Other sound cards, SCSI controllers, USB controllers, Network cards, Video cards,
and others.

If you have a conflict and you want to fix it, the best way to move the IRQs around
is to move the card in question to another PCI slot. This may mean trying 2,3, or
even 4 different slots. You may need to move another card to a different slot to
allow the audio card to use that PCI slot. All unused PCI cards should be PHYSICALLY
REMOVED (or built-in devices should be disabled from BIOS), not just disabled in
Windows, as this does not always truly free up the resource. Remember to power down
your system before changing hardware; you should NEVER install or remove hardware
while the computer is powered ON, except for USB and Firewire devices (or PCMCIA
Cardbus devices on laptops).

Some more tricks for freeing up IRQs are to disable one or more COM (serial) ports,
printer ports and USB (if you're not using them), or on-board audio (Sometimes called
AC97 or Legacy Audio) from within the BIOS (see below). You must check with your
motherboard/computer manufacturer to find the correct way to do this. Disabling
devices within the BIOS will remove them from the system, and possibly allow a device
or two to jump to a free IRQ, reducing the amount of troubleshooting you must do.
Within the BIOS, you should select
Integrated Perhiperals. If you don't see this option, try Advanced, and within this
menu, look for I/O Configuration, Perhiperal Configuration, or something of the
like- it varies from system to system. This is where you'll see the options to enable/disable
hardware. This is also where you'll change the parallel port mode if you are using
a parallel port midi interface. Then follow on-screen instructions on how to exit
and save changes.

Another option within the BIOS, which may be under almost any menu, again depending
on the computer, is PLUG AND PLAY BIOS or INSTALLED OS. This will have two choices,
one being Windows, and one being non-Windows (the wording may be different.) This
setting determines whether the BIOS or Windows will control resources. You may want
to try switching the option to the other choice. If it doesn't work as well, it
can always be changed back. Many computers do not have this option.

* If you're using a USB device (either audio or midi interface), you'll want to
have the USB on its own IRQ. Most new computers actually have 2 to 5 USB devices:
One pair (or more) on the back and one which is either connected to the front or
not connected at all. Resolving IRQ sharing with USB is more difficult because there
is no way to control which IRQ it uses, so usually you must move devices off of
the USB IRQ by moving or removing the PCI card in conflict. Also, if you can avoid
it, don't use any other USB device on that pair of USB ports. This will decrease
the bandwidth for your audio/midi device and possibly create conflicts. Especially
avoid hubs and high-bandwidth items like modems, ethernet controllers, hard drives
or cd-rom drives, printers, and scanners.

* If you're using a Firewire audio device, you'll want to have the Firewire IEEE
1394 controller on its own IRQ just like it is your sound card. All firewire ports
on a card share the same resources, so it shouldn't make a difference where they
are plugged in unless there is a physical problem with the card.

Also, while in Device Manager, you may want to check for multiple driver installations.
Go to Start - Run, and type CMD and click OK. Type exactly:

set devmgr_show_nonpresent_devices=1
start devmgmt.msc

(The latter command actually launches your device manager- you can use this elsewhere
or make a shortcut to this file if you desire.) Go to View - Show Hidden Devices.
Don't worry- you'll see alot of other devices which you didn't see before- this
is normal. For instance, if you have a network card, it may now show as 5-10 devices,
these are background pieces of it required for normal operation. The same goes for
Sound, Video, and Game Controllers- there will be 6-12 new devices, mostly Microsoft
devices. Do not remove these, they are required for Windows use. You can now see
if you have 2 or 3 (or more) of the exact same device driver installed of your audio/midi
interface (unused devices show as a light-grey color). If you do, right-click on
the extra devices, and click Uninstall. Reboot after removing the extra devices,
and go back and check again. You may need to remove all of a particular device to
get the driver installed just once. This step is typically not needed, but in some
cases where you have gone through driver installation several times, it is worth
checking.
