    Hi folks,

    I’m thinking of buying in an Apple G5 workstation with Final Cut Pro. Should i invest a grand more and get the higher speck with BlackMagic DeckLink HD plus video card. Is this card any good and is it stable? Also does the FCP studio include DVD authoring?

    [Kevin Lee] “Also does the FCP studio include DVD authoring?”

    Yes, DVD Studio Pro 4 is included in the Studio bundle.

    As for BlackMagic, we have a forum here on the Cow for them so I would suggest you look through that forum to see how users like the products and you can also post your query over there.

    I prefer the AJA Kona 2 myself.

    The Decklink cards are great. No problems here.
