Hi Kieran!
Good point about the analogue i/o’s. Quick change of subject – do you know if the software funtionality (gui-wise) of the sw only ver. is identical or different to the integrated suites? I’ve just been sitting trying the sw version out and have a sneaking feeling that something is missing – might just be the completely diffent logic at work here though (from other nle’s like fcp and premiere i mean) – it kind of reminds me of edit* but not entirely like that either…

It seems the aja(oem) card is similar or identical to the kona2-card for mac/fcp – because I can’t see a mention of 4:4:4-capability in the m100 HD suite (which is a major selling point for the kona3-card). As far as I’ve understood from m100/boris’s website the different varieties of m100 (all but the software only version) ship with an AJA(oem) PCIe-card aswell as some form of a bob (possibly an oem’d aja “k-box”). Buying final cut studio and an aja card with similar specs as the oem card would probably end up about @ about 50-70% of the price of the m100 alternative. That said; I’m currently an fcp user growing increasingly p*ssd off at fcp’s inability to render anything at higher bit-depth than 8bit (an absolute necessity when dealing with colour correction etc.) – that’s why I’m sniffing around here at the m100 forums. Although going from fcp to m100 may be an unusual transition – being able to combine the two would probably be ideal; fcp for ingest and play-out, m100 for the rest..?
Any thoughts on this? -

Thanx for the response!
To my understanding this plugin only works when you capture the native dvcpohd data via firewire using the 1200 deck. Unfortunately I’ve got the older 1700 deck which haven’t got any fw connection and won’t ever get one either (as far as i’ve understood from our panasonic retailer). So I’m stuck with using hd-sdi. I do have the panasonic frc which does the conversion just fine except from the fact that it recompresses the data, which of course is just what i want to avoid..
Anyone else using the 1700 deck out there?
