Thanks for the input. Actually it’s the old TV look that I’m trying to check. It’s like the sound mixer who keeps a crappy speaker on hand to listen to what a mix sounds like lo-fi.
While clearly the prettier the better, Our ediotrs work at offline resolution during the cutting process and I need to see what my boss and our clients see when they are taking an axe to our graphics. It’s usually the 1989-era client monitor hooked up in someone’s office in LA when they scream through the phone that the graphics LOOK GREEN!
I’ll look into the firewire box. Cheers.
