Yes it is. CS2 only allows video preview through standard DV firewire. The io has it’s own set of drivers that bascially send video over firewire, and CS2 does not support them.

Yes but After Effects supports AJA, but Photoshop CS2 does not. I thought Adobe is the same company that created both applications.
Left hand does not talk to the right.

Yeah, kinda. You have to keep in mind that After Effects was designed from the ground up to be a video program, video in Photoshop is an afterthought.
I make most of my titles in AE for this very reason.

Left hand and right hand?
Photoshop C2 does have video previews with Decklink cards, because BMD wrote the simple export component that’s required for this. It probably took them a couple of days to write it. You could get the IO to work with Photoshop using EchoFire, which means AJA could add support for this if they wanted to. Since EchoFire is $275, the Decklink free Photoshop export function was a big deal for me when deciding. The Decklink software also adds an import component, that allows Photoshop to grab a frame from a video source.
I know this is an AJA forum. I have participated here many times when I was using the IO and I am hardly a troll. It just surprises me they are not adding these things in such a competitive market. They may loose clientes because of this. I am again considering the IO, as I am moving most of my work to a laptop. But it wouldn’t suprise if Decklink are first to market with an ExpressCar/34 HD/SD card for the MacBook Pro.Adolfo Rozenfeld
