  • URGENT: Media100 compatible captioning package

    I would prefer a software solution to my captioning needs. But I don’t have a big budget. I doubt that hardware would be reasonable but I’m looking for something under a grand, which might not be many options. I’m NOT using DV so I can’t use any of the cheaper DV options…

    Hi Matt,
    Perhaps you could give us a few more details about what you are trying to achieve? Are you looking for a package to replace the “usual” Media 100 titling software (Boris, CG Studio etc), or are you looking for a “downstream” solution for caption overlay after the video leaves Media 100? Or have I got the wrong end of the stick ?

    I doubt that downstream will work, I have two editing stations that need captioning. It might be that one downstream solution would work, if I could route the signals from the media100(s) to the encoder to the decks. That being said, I would rather have a software solution that would work with our current Media 100 (8.2.1. OS X 10.3.2) than anything else. I don’t have budget numbers but I will tell you that our solution will be the cheapest out there, however impractical… I have Boris Grafitti 3.0 already. I don’t really want to replace it but if something is out there that works better and does captioning, I’d be interested…
