Jerry-
After reading the posts from you and others on this forum who've had serious
problems with their systems, I can sympathize with the anger because I'd be
upset if my Flyer didn't work after the investment I put into it. However,
since mine does work and I'd imagine there are others who aren't having
difficulties, it makes my think that problems could be the result of defective
Flyer boards or hard drives and not an inherent problem with the technology or
that somehow my tower configuration is needed for sufficient cooling and
internal SCSI connections. I noticed in one of your posts you mentioned about
softness of image quality. I haven't found that when I use the HQ5 setting
feeding in Hi8 through my Feral effects TBC. In fact, because of the effective
noise reduction of the TBC, the footage played back from the Flyer is actually
a cleaner signal and I see no loss in resolution. If there's anything else
about my configuration or Flyer experience that might be helpful to you, please
let me know. I think if we all help each other out and keep the input going to
Newtek, we can all hopefully be satisfied Flyer users.
