  • FYI: ProRes capture on a Quad G5

    Posted by Jeremy Newmark on June 15, 2007 at 9:13 pm

    Yesterday I was finally able to install FCS 2 and start testing things out. I’m happy to say that today I was able to capture 1080 24p all day long from HDCAM tapes to ProRes 422 HQ on our Quad G5. We have a Kona 3 with the latest drivers capturing to a Huge U320RX which was 85% full when we started. Everything went pretty smoothly, no big hiccups or issues. I’ll continue to test for the next few days and let you know if anything pops up, but for now I think I can safely say that you CAN capture ProRes on the EOL G5’s.

    best regards,
    jeremy

    P.S. I’ll post this on the Kona forum as well.

    Good to know. That could have a lot to do with it.
