Thanks Andy for the advise. This seems to be a great way to do what I need. I just need to find a house that has the decklink card, right? Can you give me an idea how much this transfer should cost? Do you know of a house in the San Diego area?
I’m using Premiere Pro 1.5. and yes I know I have to compress. I was looking for the best possible format that I can edit on my PC. It looks like a Quicktime file might be the best I can do.
Won’t that have the same 5:1 compression problem as just having the transfer house put the movie on a DV tape for me so I can transfer it to my PC with my camera?
