Thanx for the info Luke.
Quicktime is fine, it’s pretty much what I work with currently anyway. Also, I work in PAL, so 25fps is what I’m aiming at.
I guess my concern is that I hear the BM is fantastic on the Mac, but not quite up to scratch on the Windows platform – please correct me if I am wrong (I hope I am!). Some of the issues that have come up in my discussions are dropped frames, problems with fields and a general lack of confidence when running in Windows – again tell me I’m wrong! Basically, I just want to get short slabs of SD footage in & out, and the BM seems like such a great option.
My system will be a HP XW8200, Dual 3.2GHz Xeon’s, 2GB RAM, NVIDIA FX3400, 160GB SATA HDD + the LaCie 500GB.
Thanx again for your time,
Troy
