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.
