Dave: >YET – Beware one big drawback with Studio Magic, it is not MCI driver hardware … and on a PC this is a critical flaw.< Good point! The folks at StudioMagic don't seem to have thought a lot of this through–which is the impression I got when I called them regarding their beta version (which I reviewed). OTOH, if you're not intending to use it as more than a titler/genlock with a few digital effects thrown in, and can accept the quality compromises, the price *is* right… >Also, the documentation I saw with the product was very skimpy and tended to suggest experimentation whenever answers were lacking.< LOL! *Very* true–their manual's more like "Zen and Art of Video Postproduction" than a practical guide. Again, I think they got so high on the concept of their product they didn't think it through… Tim
