You are right, it’s not VTR but drive with P2 memory cards. All you can do is transfer data in/out of PC and it also cost some $…. (What is the cost of VTR?). This way I think, you can also bypass any interface cards, if you operate software only with the right codec, but you have to live with rendering, becoming faster and faster all the time . I’ve got the feeling, in the future that will be the way.
