OS 10.4.10 & Q 7.1.6 issues with p2 using FCP 5.1.4

Just purchased a MBP yesterday. Playing a 720 24p DVCPROHD movie on a 2.4G Macbook Pro 17" hi res 7200 internal drive, 2G RAM 800 fw 7200 exteral scratch disk. OS 10.4.10 QT 7.1.6 FCP 5.1.4 One layer, When canvas is set to 100 percent, images with pans and movement plays back with shifting horizontal segments. Static images do not have these horizontal break ups. Previous P2 material was loaded into the system using OS 10.4.9 & QT 7.1.5.


Also have an Imac 17" intel 1.8, OS 10.4.9 QT 7.1.5 FCP 5.1.4 using the same FW drive through a 400 port using the same fcp project, pans are smooth, no horizontal shifting.
New notes:

Just imported a P2 card on the MBP using the dual adaptor, looks perfect on playback. Must have something to do with the new OS and or QT versions not interfacing with old P2 material imported using previous OS or QT environments.

Stuff imported using the dual adaptor plays fine on the Imac.

Bizarre. I have a brand new 2.4 GHz 17 MBP and FCS2. I'm also noticing that shifting. After installing the latest updates (speculated to include a new video driver) Motion crashes like CRAZY!!

Reinstalled OS and FCS2, everything worked fine, until I installed the Apple updates, then Motion started crashing again.

Did you import new footage through FCP2 and see the shifting? I think it has something to do with old footage. You might be able to import old mxf files into new version of FCP and the problem might be solved?
