fwiw
i have three P6000 M100’s for sale and can do you
a deal on the G4 Mac with them if that helps. No they
dont do HD of course but you may find staying with M100 SD a
bit longer more cost effective as the AJA and others
drop in price?

you would be best just digitising in 48khz and to be honest just stay in that from now on as 44.1 just causes headaches.

the omf fucntion in media 100 doesnt allow you to manage the size of the handles so remember this when exporting from your mac system to a cd or dvd blank – and for that matter when the audio house is importing. if you have file size restrictions or need to squeeze it onto the blank cd’s you will need to export say 2 tracks at at time.

of course if they can take a firewire drive off you, then it will be much simpler.

it is a little un sophisticated as an application but unlike the 844 OMF work, at least it was finished, paid for and works!

it will make life much easier than straight aiff exports. post again if you need more advice

Hey Tycho

If Steve Bayes were here he would say something like

There are currently no plans to convert the HDX board to PCI Express
(but never say never — they are investigating).

i wouldnt if i were you,as 844 def isnt written for it and the process to convert
anything for IPOd it seems takes forever

have a search around the web and people are fighting with the
Pro versionof QT that does the Ipod video compression

here’s an alternative

export for Sony PSP Portable – Null River Software do a great MP4 codec
and the results are lightning fast, can be done without QT7 and
are better than IPod video

But thats just my 2 cents worth
We are now taking demo’s of tv shows and music videos out on the PSP

If Steve Bayes were here
he would say something like

The HDX board is a PCI-X, not PCI Express which is a completely different architecture and form factor.
M100 will not be compatible with the three new G5

[John]

mmm gee floh i thought even you’d smile at that one

macs as being macs – with moto or ibm chips as we have known them for years
with different plugs, different connectors, different everything

then in january or february or whenever the folks at apple go to
intel chips we will be using pc’s, you can call them what you like
but they’ll ultimately be pc’s

oh dont worry

[John]

well mac only until january when the first intel macs arrive!
and then it will be both!!!

not to mention the new pci express boards for mactels? and all that entails 🙂

[John]

sounds to me like your data i.e. your ext drive is corrupted or faulty
i guess do the old tricks
– trash your prefs on the media 100 mac folder
– check your drive plugs and leads
– check that nobody has loaded a strange version of quicktime or another video app on the system

then check back here

[John]

absolutely

i seem to remember we had to surrender the dongles for the serial no versions
and my memory is ay foggier than some others for installing that version
funny though how they just keep on working
