Thank you for the reply sry for the very messy post but i had alot of info to get out with alittle space.
But yea you answered most of the problem although do you think you could be more specific on which encoder i could use to encode videos with filters like the auto color filter
(i have been having problems with it i seem to be very temperamental are there any more stable plug-in i could use)
(i wonder if it is just me not encoding the filter right?)
(can anyone get the auto color to apply to a 2 hour video if so what are your export and project setting if you encode to mpeg.)
Sooo….
if i capture without the matrox card the card becomes obsolete right or does it do something else to help the system?
But Yes thank you Eric that is very helpful especially the idea on capturing via fire wire. can you confirm that the results will be as good as capturing via matrox fire wire???
what format should i capture it as avi or is it possible to capture to mpeg.
thanks alot as you can see i have alot of questions because i have tryed so many things with so many hours nothing seems to be right method there always one or to things wrong with each way i try?. :/
