They’re made by ADC. A quick Google and they are $165 from Markertek.

Ya’ll gotta remember too that all the higher end Avid systems have a LOT of hardware support in their board sets that allow for the added functionality you are talking about. FCP is, for the most part, all software based and one of the reasons it’s so much less expensive that Avid.
My 2¢ worth.

I use LiveType on a daily basis although I’ve almost never used the actual LiveType fonts themselves. It’s actually a capable little titling program that does a good job fast. If you get into it a little and learn how to adjust the keyframes and the time attributes, it’s much more versatile than you might realize. It’s fast and easy once you get to know it a little. Sure I can do titles in Motion, but I have quite a few ongoing projects that require updating timelines with current information. Livetype was a no-brainer for this. All these timelines will have to be rebuilt using Motion files instead. As an professional editor (35 yrs. in the biz) I’m another person who will miss the application. When FCS3 arrives and gets installed, I will attempt to load LiveType from my FC@ 2 install disks. It will me interesting to see how it works from within FCP7. RIP LiveType…

No LiveType is a problem. I have MANY projects that use LiveType that are updated regularly. What will display now when I call up an older project that used LiveType elements in the new Studio? And if I load LiveType separately from Studio 2, will FCP7 still recognize the files and will I be able to update then with the changes being reflected in the FCP timeline? Definitely going to be a problem in my work flow.

Also noticing the conspicuous absence of any mention of LiveType. Has it finally gone bye-bye and been absorbed into Motion 4?

As noted in a similar post a few days ago, you night try Lyric Shadow/Highlight filter. It’s a free plugin. I’ve used it numerous times and it works pretty well. Try Googling it.

Don’t even TRY to do multicam HD editing off of a FW800 drive! Much pain will result.

Um, when I did the upgrade to FCP6 last year, the vast majority of my plug-ins worked just fine. Did I just get lucky?

The individual frames are quite large. I would guess that the drive on your laptop is struggling to keep up with the playback. Faster external drives might help the playback issues.
