Alex,
>> If I buy the Exabyte drive, and use the asdg driver to place frames onto the
8mm tape in D1 format.. how many houses are that handle this type of format?
I don't know but there should be at least one in each major city. I know of at
least one in Hollywood and San Francisco.
>> Does it work this way: that I just give them the tape with the images and
they dump it onto a tape for me?
Yes, that sounds about right. Very convenient for mailing if there is no local
post production house offering the service. There is a problem in some cases
that the Digital Disk Recorder itself is limited to 20 (or 30) seconds of
video. Later Abekas models may have a higher capacity drive, I'm not sure.
