  Decklink HD extreme real time preview in AECS3

  Posted by Andres Bocan on June 4, 2008 at 4:17 am

  HI:

  I am working on HD project 1080i. I recieve DPX seq 12MB each frame.
  I need to monitor my After effects work in an external monitor. Viewsonic 28″ real 1920×1080 pixels.
  Obviously I need real time playback of my RAM previews and searching here I figured it out that the intensity Pro is not powerfull enough to work with such HD project.

  I think that the proper choise would be DECKLINK HD EXTREME.

  Can anyone answer me if this card works fine for previewing my composition window and get real time RAM previews ?

  I have a MacPro 2Quad cores 2.8 with 16 GB RAM. A raid of 3 disks from 500 GB per disk.

  Thanks

  You can preview a 1080 project with the extreme edition, the thing is though that the realtime and playback performance of your project besides disk speed solely depends on the amount of ram AE has in its disposition and the preview quality you have configured, after all it is called RAM preview…and it seems you have plenty…
