Jay,
i tested the Decklink Studio on a WinXP Pro (32-bit) system with the final release of the live encoder and everything is working very well. Could you tell me on which platform you have made the test ? I would give that also a try.
The pain with rendering to AVI Format is the long conversion time
Another way could be the BMD Framelink Method,but i never used it before.If anyone get this to work , please let us know.
You can playback HD image sequences in realtime if you put the frames separatly into the timeline.If you are using the virtual clip (which is created when you import with the “Numbered stills” – function)the playback is dropping frames.But you can try the following.Import the folder which includes the image sequence into the bin.After that drag the folder to the timeline.The frames will automatically have their correct order.We delivered the same system to an animation studio.The customer uses premiere pro 2.0 with decklink multibridge only to play out his animation files.He uses an infortrend storage system which is fast enough to handle that (Read speed >200MB/s).
Thanks for your reply,but that was not the trick.Its a stupid Premiere Bug.I changed my Workarea from my personalized view to the normal Editing View and everything its in his place.The “numbered stills” function is now available
