I just installed my LH2600W and it has the same high pitched hum/whine. It’s not the fan, or at least it’s not the normal fan noise. ED, were you able to fix this, or get your monitor replaced?

(I know… I’m digging up posts from way past…)

This may not be what you are looking for, but the Panasonic LCD monitor (BT-LH2600W) has a built in waveform monitor. It superimposes over the image and you can select which corner it sets in. Cool feature, great monitor, really good price.

Thanks Bob. I appreciate the advice.

Thanks David for the reply. What hardware encoding options are available? (other than something like a dedicated Scenarist workstation)

I would be very interested in an (affordable) hardware solution.

Thanks,

Eric, thanks for the info. Can you tell me about the ‘600GB compressed’ capacity? Does this work? Can I really expect to get 600GB of data per cartridge?

Thanks,
Parke

Thanks for the timecode overlay tip. That will definitely help.

So there is not a way to auto sync the clips? Or a way to split apart a MultiClip?

I seriously doubt they are going to find anybody to do this the way that they want. Like it was stated earlier… Real is a delivery codec. (Of course I would argue that MPEG-2 is also a delivery codec, and then HDV came out.) I hate to say it, but I think you have them in a good situation, pay for going back to the masters or don’t have the very long clips edited.

Or would it be right to say you are the in-house guy tapped to fix this problem?
(I say this because I used to be that guy at an university college and was always being asked to do ridiculous things when there was no budget.)

I think you’ll need to upgrade to the $29 Flip4Mac WMV Player Pro. Their site claims it allows importing WMV files for editing or transcoding (assuming you have QuickTime Pro as well).
