>>From what I understand the products like Razor Pro renders each frame not >>just the transitions. It's just that the transitions take longer. Now this is just >>what I wanted… making video editing just like doing an animation rendering. >>NOT! Maybe the PVR will solve this and the new razor pro will render real time >>output. If that is so I'll take a second look. For now I still have a toy. This was only true with the PAR. Its not true with perception. With the perception you only have to render transitions and then you can play all the clips back.. In other words cuts only has no render time at all. I've seen it and its very cool. If you get the new Speed Razor and are on a Dec Alpha Station you can render even the transitions in almost real time. 4 seconds per frame on their most complex effect. This I have not seen but heard. The PVR is a much better conceptually useing SCSI drives vs. IDE allows ofr much better picture quality. Bob.. Soon to be owner of a new Perception..
