Can anyone please help me with these questions. Our production company wants to upgrade its graphics. We currently have a Targa 16 (not a Targa +16). It has started to have a few problems. Our current need is for a video capture board (single frame) that can be sync up with a video switcher. We have a PAR board for our 3D graphics, but need a frame buffer for CG. (We use Rio 6.3). The PAR board has the ability to adjust its timing by software. That is want I am looking for in a new frame buffer. My questions are these: Which board to buy? Targa+32 or Targa+64 or Illuminator Pro or Other? What additional software will we need? Do the boards have a built in TBC for output video? If no to TBC, Do you use a TBC to adjust Hue, Contrast, etc.? (Which TBC?) Thanks in advance for you input. Bob G.
