Stutters before transitions

I have added fades between scenes on a 2 minute movie. I
have noticed that just before the fade starts, the image
will stutter for a frame or so (it appears to have a frame
out of order and jumps back in time).

I am running XP Pro with an AMD 1.2 Athalon, 512 Meg of
DDR400. The rest of the video and audio is fine.

Is this a known issue with transitions, or is this a
hardware issue?
 
Interesting that you should mention that as I have the exact same problem,
and I think I can link it to another thread in this NG.

The other thread was regarding MM2 having a 15fps editing space (or 12.5fps
PAL, which applies to me in the UK) and the fact that one frame of editing
space may equal 2 frames in real-time which can produce some interesting
(although annoying) anomalies when rendering down.

I haven't tried this yet, but will do when I re-render my affected movie:
try trimming the left hand edge of the clip you're fading in to by one
frame, re-render it and see what the result is. I would be very interested
to know as this would solve my problem too.

Gah! Didn't work! I tried trimming lots of bits of clips by a single frame
to get rid of that annoying 'flash' frame and none of them worked!

It's yet another bug.
