#Par vs Options
Hi Lori,
Glad you're here as there seems to be some debate about whether drivers will be
available for Ill Pro running under NT. In particular…
1) an independent device driver
2) a driver to support 3DS R5 directly
Both of which I have been told are in development and both of which I could
use. The device independent driver is needed to support paint programs and
frame grabbing. And of course it would be nice to be able to output directly
to a variety of recording devices when R5 is available.
Can you confirm this?
Also, while I don't have the MAX I do have an Ill Pro and there seems to be
some debate about whether the MAX actually supports 720×486. Some engineers
have claimed that in fact it only puts out 720×480… If you're interested I
can follow up e-mail on the particulars. I don't know how I'd go about
verifying this for sure but it does seem to me that my Ill Pro is outputting at
the correct resolution as I think I am seeing the entire image. Is this problem
confined to the MAX or ? is there something else that these people don't
understand… (My thought was that the MAX drivers might be written to leave
those 6 lines blank for VTR's that record time code in the vertical interval…
FWIW)
Thanks, hope you can help clear this up… it'll make me look better. <G> (And
Matrox products too for that matter. <BG>)
