Fortunately I was using the Targa 2K card with Madras. I had no latency issues and firewire in to boot! also no latency with the T3K card and 6.5! May they both RIP!!

You will indeed miss edit*s great capture module when working with FCP. I’m afraid FCP will never reach edit*s level of functionality, flexibility and level of user customization! Another feature you will sorely miss is the timeline cursor doesn’t scroll/follow along as you are playing back a timeline sequence, it just disappears off the screen until you stop playback! The lack of audio level feedback while digitizing has always been a major drawback (and major PItheA) of digitizing in FCP. The titling apps are also much weaker in FCP than the Inscriber module included with edit*. There are many areas where FCP shines, but these are a few areas where it definitely needs some major help!

I am also getting bad video when I render any speed changes. The rendered clip looks like its been put through a heavy blur filter. It actually looks sharper and better before rendering. I am hoping this is just an IO beta driver problem and not a general FCP 5 problem!

See if they can take a DVCAM tape. If so you can go out at 0% black level SDI from FCP.

Microsoft gone in 20 years?? Not a chance my friends.

You also have to watch out for having the Cinewave codecs in your quicktime folder. I found out the hard way that Capture Now which works fine normally with the IO drivers reverts back to the unusable Capture Now problems that the Cinewave has. I just drag them out of the Quicktime folder and store them somewhere else on my spare drive until I need them for that rare Cinewave client project.

As they say, the Apple G5 is the heaviest, most expensive dongle you can buy!

I upgraded to OS 10.3.9 on both my Cinewave dual 1 ghtz. G4 system and my dual 2.5 G5 system, upgraded the IO drivers and have had no trouble whatsoever with either of these systems/machines. I was even doing 1&1/2 hour SDI 10 bit captures on the G5 and multiple 16 bit captures on the Cine G4 with no glitches whatsoever. Maybe I just lucked out!!

It’s called Motion 2 and you can automatically animate parameters by using a midi keyboard and just striking the keys! Very cool!
