This is good to hear. I’m also looking an a HPX170 with over 1000 hours but was concerned about that being “Mid Life” However, should i still be concerned about the E Series card’s life? The camera was mainly used in a studio environment, and shot to P2 continuously on 2 32GB cards. It still has 2 years on the panasonic warranty and 1 year left on B&H. I’m waiting to hear back from the seller, but are there any particular questions you would ask other than lens scratches or worn out ports like the XLR’s and Firewire jack?
He’s put together a nice little kit with lots of extras like filters, case, extra batteries, and his price would reflect the hour usage accurately.

Dg got the overlays to me, their safe range is indeed tighter than final cut’s preset. My black padding was fine. If anyone needs there overlays pleas let me know. Right now I only have the 4×3 versions but I’ve requested 16×9 versions too.

I see, they didn’t specify padding. I can do that easily in squeeze. There is a ” lock aspect ” switch in the codec. I’ll give my eg rep a call and see if that’s the problem.
You guys are great! I’ve used the cow for a number of years but this was my first post. What a great community, thanks again!

Yes, its a vertical height issue i’m sure, it was the top super that was causing the problem. I could see how increasing the vertical lines to 512 would kick my graphics out of safe on there end. DG is dragging there feet on giving me a ping or some screen shot to make my own title safe overlays. I’m going to just make my own and move the lines in 5% more.
I’m using Sorenson Squeeze to prep the MPEG for them, it also re-stretches to there odd scale request, i didn’t think editing in 720 x 512 would be a good ideal. Not sure why the DG DropBox system is more picky than there typical dallas delivery FTP. Maybe we got grandfathered in due to our volume, we do around 100 spots a week through them.
Thanks for your recommendations guys!
