My starting point was a possible new, external MPEG-2/1394 converter I have suggested some features for. If it becomes enabled with HDMI IN, it could convert uncompressed 4:2:2 video directly from i.e Sony FX7/V1 (tapeless) and next to hard disk over 1394. As mentioned the new Sony XDCAM HD (PDW-F355 camcorder with optical disk and PDW-F75 deck) are based on this 4:2:2 50Mbps MPEG-2. I don't know if they also can use i.Link for this file transport to harddisk. http://news.sel.sony.com/en/press_room/b2b/broadcast_production/content_create_edit/release/29851.html --Terje _______________________________________________ Cinelerra mailing list Cinelerra@skolelinux.no https://init.linpro.no/mailman/skolelinux.no/listinfo/cinelerra
