Hey Tim what Cioneform prudicts do you use?
Hey Tim,
What’s your cineform setup?
Do you have monitoring with it thru hardware?

I am preparing to reconfigure for Windows 7…and actually use 64 bit, so my setup will be migrating…
BUT, I’ve typically been a Prospect user…HD, then 2K (now Prospect is in 4K). First Light adds a whole new set of tools to the system… I’ve worked with the SI camera workflow and really liked it.
My system right now has a Xena LH card and I have it dual boot. One boot is the AJA OEM drivers that use the card for CineForm, and the other boot is AJA’s retail drivers so I can use the AJA edit settings. I use both. My third boot was going to be Vista 64…but I could never quite get it the display drivers right to light up all four of my monitors. That will now be wiped off the system and hopefully Windows 7 will solve all my problems and run flawlessly with all my software.
🙂
On the hardware side, I’m pondering what I might do for system monitoring in the near future…possibly Display Port for SpeedGrade monitor-HDMI for output…DreamColor?, I might even consider one of the larger LED backlit LCD panels for client monitoring…which would cause me to really look at moving to a Xena LHi card.
All delayed substantially by our economic rut…but, what I have works, so I keep plugging along.

Hmmm…
that’s annoying about the dual boot thing for the Xena Cineform versus normal….

Yes…it’s due to the development cycle. AJA’s retail drivers can be updated as AJA wishes and they can just keep moving…for third party vendors like CineForm, having to constantly chase each incremental update can doom a third party vendor to perpetual beta…
The OEM drivers are designed to give third party vendors…Avid, Media 100, CineForm, etc, a non-moving target for some period.
