U-Matic for Animation?
Greg,
>> get a good sync source
That's an interesting thing … the DQ422 has the source for gen-locking …
but the software only version doesn't …. I haven't heard anyone
complaining about DQ's software only … so something seems "weard". I
talked to a fella yesterday (I'll get his name … I've forgotten it now)
who says he worked with Gary et'al with 3DS development. He's using SoftVTR
with a 7750 (422 VTR) and says it works great (actually .. he had a heck of
a time in the beginning until he changed a variable in a config file telling
the software that it was a Panasonic VTR .. "now it works great").
Something bothers me about having to but a card in the machine, plug it into
itself … etc .. when its just a serial connection. Anyways, if I'm
sticking with Tagra+32's for my customers, I can use that as the sync …
eh?
I guess its the engineer in me …. when something seem "not quite right"
(DQ422 on a new deck vs. software only) … its hard for me to just go "…
ehhh … O…K…".
I've got a few more "referals" to check out that they've given me… looking
before I leap ya'know.
