I’m looking @ the MXO2-Mini…has component out for DVD dubs, and HDMI out for HD monitoring. I don’t think I’m going to be able to swing the cost of a professional studio monitor with HD-SDI, so I’m just going to use the HDMI to monitor output. Any thoughts on the Matrox box? How about their h.264 faster than real-time encoding option? Anyone use that?

P.S. And in response to your comment Erik, it seems naive to think that the CPU can handle it all. I would think it makes sense to have dedicated hardware to deal with specific things and let your processor handle others.
It’s like asking one guy to shoot, edit, animate, color correct, design, and output with DVD authoring…and knowing codecs for transcoding…OHH, wait that’s what most of us do!
