    Thank you for clearing that up!
    Don’t worry – I’ll make use of that extra RAM!

    They’ve had this out for a while. They were one of the first, and the price never came down.
    I imagine that they did tackle one problem: The Blu-Ray drives that are coming out have SATA interfaces, but the connections in the Mac Pro are EIDE. That could be a deal breaker if you tried to install one you bought in a store.

    Yes – The Kiro Pillow spot is my spot. if you look at the YouTube previews, you’ll probably see a link to the :30 version.
    I did most of the compositing in Final Cut in HDV. The Chroma Keyer in FCP was much more forgiving to the HDV compression than what I found in After Effects or Shake.
    I did use shake for a couple of the keys where I used DVCPRO-HD for.

    My client is doing his own marketing for now, and the spots have helped him get his foot in the door with folks. The :60 spot is for local cable inserts. I’m not taking part in the fulfillment at all.

    This is what I shot on spec.

    One test shoot to make sure it would work with stock photos, a second shoot to make the :30 version and a third to make the :60 version which if the one he wanted for air.

    It was shot using a Sony Z1U in HDV. For the final shoot I tried capturing footage directly from the Z1 using a Black Magic Intensity Pro to avoid 4:0:0 problems.

    I’m having the same problem as am searching for information here on the cow.
    2 days ago I brought in my drop-frame footage via firewire and now I want to recapture using HDV from my Z1U. When I select the clip and see the duration of the clip is 47;30;00 in length then try to batch digitize the clip again, it things the new clip is over 48:00:00 in length.

    I’m going to manually redigitize using the settings I had on the SD version of the clips and reconnect them manually as well.
