Andrew,
thanks so much for the detailed reply. we get nothing on the screen at all.
tried a different monitor- same problem. that's why i think it's the video
card- i guess i need to reseat it & see if that helps, but since it's so old
(4-5 years- in computer years it's ancient) i think it just died.so apparently
the matrox card is a video card/capture card/editing accelerator all-in-one
piece of hardware (not counting the breakout box that is). 2 more questions:
since we had the matrox card running- does that tell you if we have agp or pci?
also- when editing,
he did have to render his projects, so i'm a bit confused on this rendering
thing- i think the big benefit of the matrox's video editing acceleration was
it's ability to preview effects real-time (without rendering)- but that's a
seperate process from rendering effects real-time, correct? and is it only
matrox's effects that it worked on, or does the matrox card also save the
rendering process on premier's native effects? (trying to see how much he'll
benefit by
getting the same kind of "card" here).
and to answer one of your questions: yes we're using it to capture both analog
& dv sources,so we'll still need that functionality.
hope i'm not annoying anyone with these basic questions, but each thing i
learn helps fill in the whole picture, and i really appreciate everyone's
efforts!!
