    I believe even a G4 cpu has no problem.

    The higher power is needed when digitizing.

    G5 quad is listed as the minimum, but mine fails / drops frames everytime.

    My dual 2ghz G5 can’t play it back reliably at all (ProRes HD, anyway…SD is fine). Dropped frames galore. Its all CPU…., I can play uncompressed 1080i HD no problem.

    I think any Intel unit like yours would work fine.
