The Editmaster is gone. It is now called the Digital Broadcaster, and with
a name like that you would think it would be impresive. Oh well… They
were showing it running at 25:1 compresion ratio (lower than VHS quality).
It was pretty lame, the software is only Cuts only, and without a SCSI-II
card you cant get the lower compresion ratios to play back at 30fps so no
broadcast quality for the Digital Broadcaster yet. Im curios about the
compresion ratios they give, and the playback speeds they quote with an
SCSI-II contorler, where they came up with those numbers if they dont have
an SCSI-II contoler to use…
