Hi Tim PMJI, I've been working through the learning curve on the VM Lite for about a month now and it is a pretty incredible board. If you need support try posting to the new fast/// forum. It is accessible by either "Go Fast", or in CISNav as "Cis:Fast". All…

>Has anyone heard of this camera?
Tim >Oy! You switched platforms? You have my sympathy < My decision to switch was twofold. First was a job proposel that never materialized…(vaporjob ) and secondly, I needed to put together a linear editing system that could be upgraded later to NLE..I should've known better, about two years ago…

Hi Gary I guess you got your pentium transplant accomplished, I'm gonna wait on replacing mine until it acts really sick. Anyway, the ///Fast Video Machine Lite is up and running, I've still got a ways to go to get thru that 800 page manual. Had a small glitch after…

Gary I saw a quasi demo last nite of the VM Lite given by Armatos at a PVACT meeting. They pretty much answered all my questions I had about it. I think that I would be willing to give up the graphics and animation capabilities of the Video Producer for…

Tim > you project the film image into a magnifying glass and videotape the magnifying glass image< sounds like a interesting concept, I have been trying to align this setup for about an hour now with no results. Could you elaborate on this a bit, i.e. distance between projector and…
