Perhaps you could elaborate a bit.

“I’m getting the information first hand from the folks who have tried it.”

What happened in these experiences that others had? Did the box crash, drop frames, explode? Not much of the information beyond the obligatory Motu sucks is coming through. Your main point seems to be that an audio I/O device manufacturer can’t make video I/O boxes based on principle? Someone should tell Avid. It’s “first hand” “reviews” like this which make the peer reviews of products on forums often dubious and almost always tedious.

My experiences with Motu product as a whole has always been excellent. Their audio interfaces are incredibly dependable with rock-solid drivers. I’m certainly willing to entertain the idea that their first jump into the video arena had problems. I seem to remember many people having issues with the IOHD early on as well or every other 1.0 device/driver that comes down the pipe.

With the new version of the Motu box out, it could be helpful to know what plagued the 1.0 interface in order to evaluate present or future products. Anyone have any actual pro or con experience with this box that they can elaborate on with specifics.
