Thank you Daryl for all the info on the Blackmagic Pro Recorder.
Do you know of any alternatives, and, was the consumer version (Blackmagic video recorder) released prior or after the Pro Recorder described above?

Hi Joshua
Just another quick question: Jan Ozer (streamingmedia) reports that he experienced problems with 16:9 SD footage thru the H264 Pro Recorder
quote:
When I tested native encoding of 1080p footage, both the resolution and aspect ratio were correct. When I encoded 4:3 SD footage, the Pro Recorder produced the video at 720×480 resolution at a pixel aspect ratio of 1.0, rather than the required .9091, which made the footage about 10 percent fatter than it should be. With 16:9 footage, the encoded file was still 720×480 with a pixel aspect ratio of 1.0, rather than 1.2121, making the video look too skinny. This was so even after I checked the Use Anamorphic SD 16:9 option in the Pro Recorder preferences dialog
Has this issue been addressed and sorted out?

Hi
I work on a quad core mac pro, with intensity pro installed. Would the H264 Pro Recorder be of any benefit if i want to stream live?
