[MacDV] FCP on intel Macs?

[David Gilbert]

I have recently upgraded to an intel Mac (Mac Pro 17") and I am  
trying to use my old copy of Final Cut Pro V3.0. (Don't ask why but I  
prefer the workflow of V3.0 to any later versions).

Unfortunately, it keeps dropping frames on capture making the  
software virtually useless. My guess is that non-native software is  
going to run slower on the intel Macs when run through the emulator  
(Rosetta?). Is this the likely cause? I have a stack of tapes I need  
to capture (PAL 4:3) and I am loath to buy an upgrade to a later  
version of FCP unless I am guaranteed it will fix the problem.

Any advice would be appreciated
