  Can anybody help me ? Preview ( external monitor )

  Posted by Andres Bocan on June 13, 2008 at 3:09 am

  Hey Guys:
  I need to preview in real time ( After effect CS3 ) my HD 1080i work in an external monitor I am not sure with card should I purchase. I have a Viewsonic 1920×1080.

  I know that the most used card are balckmagic and AJA Kona models but I have read some complaints about both.

  Firstly I was after Intensity Pro (blackmagic) but it seems that it does not work well with HD output.
  Then I searched info about DeckLink (Blackmagic). It seems it works ok but not more reference than oficial web.
  Finally somebody told me that AJA Kona cards work really well but I don’t know which model will be the proper for monitoring my work in realtime.

  Can anybody help me with this ?

  Thanks
  Andres

  go to the aja site and compare the card options there are only 3.

  choose the one that best fits your budget and what you need.

  I might suggest the Kona LH series.

  I have owned both now (black magic / kona) and I can say with certainty the Kona product is better and the support is better.
