ok, from this site https://pcmcia.org/faq.htm#data I think that it would be better to use a 32 bit pcmcia interface since it is faster, those are also available from the link in my last post. As long as the reader is compatible with Type II cards then it will work.

Just add a PCMCIA card reader. https://www.amtron.com/reader.htm This site has all kinds of them. The only question now is do you need a 32 bit bus or will 16bit work. The one I was looking at was $40, that is a very affordable way to get P2 into your system.

By the way Jo, the P2 cards use 4 SD memory cards in a Raid 0 configuration. The reason why it costs so much is because they are 100% error free. Why would people be willing to record onto standard SD cards if they were likely to have dropouts?

It can do multiple formats. 1080i and 1080p.

That is why Panasonic’s HVX200 is going to be a really sweet camera. Everyone should put in a feature request with Premiere to support MXF so that we can edit P2 footage in Premiere Pro. Here’s the link for the feature request. https://www.adobe.com/support/feature.html

that is true, I was thinking about it from the perspective that his project is already edited. If you were starting from scratch, I’d for sure do autoscale

One of the easiest way to do this is to use a 4×3 project and then when you use 16×9 clips you can either right click on them in the project window and then select interpret footage and then have it use the Pixel aspect ratio of 1.2, then in the effects control window you would just scale the clip to 75% or the other way to do it would be to just scale the 16×9 clips by 75% vertically. Good Luck, the only difference between 16×9 dv and 4×3 dv is the pixel aspect ratio, so there shouldn’t be a playback problem.

that’s about my same timeline also. Good luck with figuring things out.

The Axio would be ideal, but I’m guessing since you listed the RTX10 that the axio is out of your price range. I have to respectfully disagree that you don’t need raid for video editing. You can get away with not using it, but I’ve been using Raid 0 on 4 160s for the last 2 years. I’ve noticed that when my drives fill up (and also slow down) that premiere is more likely to crash. I also have the RTX100. Make sure that you check with the recommended and tested chipsets before you buy. (https://matrox.com/video/support/rtx100xtremepro/rec/chipsets.cfm) I’d be weary about using AMD for and RTX system because the RTX, despite the fact that I love mine, has a lot of compatability issues. It is so picky that just by moving a sound card to a different slot can cause instability. Again, I love mine and it has been great. Real Time cards do come with RT effects, but beware, the RTX line of cards isn’t going to make shine Real Time. Another solution would be to just buy a faster system, with more processing power. I’m upgrading in a few months, so I might be selling my RTX100, but just so you know, it doesn’t do HDV. I’ve used it mainly for wedding’s and legal videos. It is perfect for both. Good Luck.

Is your CAPSLOCK KEY ON? That turn off the preview, also in the timeline window next to the Draft 3D button there is a button that is called Live update it should be activated. Good luck
