Tim,
The system which truely impressed me was demonstated by Matrox. The basic box
gives a five layer post production setup with PAL, Y/C and YUV ins and outs. It
controls 4 VTR's, three 2d-DVE's and the aidio associated with it. The non
linear side runs a Motion-JPEG2 with Studio Xpress software. Storage is on a
seagate 2.1gig Barracuda. Graphics and letters via inscriber and a seperate 1Gb
drive.
The whole lot operates under windows.
There are further options.
There were other dos NL systems at the show and I've got a shedload of pretty
coloured brochures somewhere in the mess that is the only place that I can
really call my own. If you're interested I'll try and summarise, but seeing the
effects possible with Matrox system I just went 'wow'..
Still think though Hybrid is the safest! Bit like a cocktail always tasting
better than the ingrediants alone.
Mark.
