Hi John,

I had a look at that. It looks ok, but it’s MAC based and I kinda limited to PC’s.

Do you know of anything simmilar for PC?

Cheers

Might have to look at using a wrapper of some sort.

What’s your experience w Raylight? Does it slow things down much?

The 850 is the AJ-SPD850, the P2 studio deck w all the bells and whistles.

Hi Jeremy,

I think we need software on PC host hardware because of the number of users, and the volume and workflow of media involved. We only have a few cards, and they need to live with the cameras. We need a copy of the footage for users to browse (possibly from interstate, and for a few weeks) and we need to be able to get it out as SDI into existing syndication infrastructure and, in some cases, onto SX or into Avids etc.

You’re right that we could use a HPG10, or more likely a ‘850 attached to a PC and just acting as a SDI output, but it would mean a lot of double handling and is rather expensive way to go.

Workflow would have to be copy from P2 card into PC, backup, spin-off user browse, copy selected media back to card in ‘850 and play out. What we’d like to do is have an SDI card in the PC and a basic interface so a user can select the material they want and play it out.

The issue with this is that I cant find software which does this, and even basic editing systems (vegas, premiere, liquid) cant seem to do it.
