Quad G5, 4,5GB RAM, 2xCinema display 20inch, HDV/DVCAM deck SONY HVRM15U PAL, Capture thru FireWire 400, video preview only on cinema display in monitor window.
I think that FCP might do dissolve realtime in full quality – when I’m editing with Avid or Adobe Premiere pro, basic transitions were always realtime and in full quality, even in SD resulotion. So, DVCAM due to it’s bitrate migh be a piece of cake for a machine such as quad G5… am I wrong?
