VideoHub feedback from users ?

I’ll be the first to say it…. it works… just fine. We’ve got ours set up with NTSC, PAL and a variety of HD decks all feeding in. They all switch perfectly. The built in downconverter is soft but useful for “draft” downconversion. We’ve had a couple of minor issues since installation. I still haven’t been able to get the framestore to work, and for a few days we had a weird issue where our Mac clients took a very long time to start up (the client software that is) but other than that it’s been very smooth sailing. For small post facilities (5-6 decks, 3-4 edit systems, and a couple of imagining units) it’s a great solution. We’ve actually already outgrown ours and will be adding a second unit as soon as it’s convenient.

Hope this helps,

Juan

P.S. After reading over this it sounds sort of negative… I should point out we are actually VERY happy with the videohub, and would recommend it to anyone with multiple edit rooms and digital decks.
