Thanks for the info about DPS.
Do you happen to know that is the current running price for the board ? Sounds
like the board has alot more application rather then play back only ?
Are we looking at a possible Abekas A66 in an AMIGA ?
Best Regards

I think it retails for $1995 and sells for around $1700. Then again, I am
not sure about street prices.

This board is capable of playing/digitizing in real-time to the HD with a
TBC-IV ($995) but it is NOT designed as a off-line editor. The frames it
playsback MUST be in sequencial order on the HD (SW takes care of that) so
ANY editing will quickly destroy it. It is marketed as a Animation player
and for rotoscoping.
DMIs BroadCaster (EditMaster) IS a off-line editor and is capable of
playing anims and editing captured video, which is probably why it is
taking them so long to develop it.

Hi
Thanks for the reply and INFO. You mention that the unit is design for
rotoscoping. Do you happen to know if the player will emulate any of the Video
Disk recorder on the market such as the Abekas A66 A64 or the Acoms ?
If it does do emulation the DPS unit will be one hot item !! By the way does
the DPS unit read and/or output SMPTE time code ?

I don't remember seeing any kind of emulation but maybe someone who
actually has one.
