Portable workflow question
Hey guys, do you think this is a robust portable workflow? No dropped frames, etc...
HV30 -> HDMI -> (Magma enclosure + Blackmagic Intensity) + Macbook Pro + Firewire 800 + G-Tech G-Raid Mini??? http://www.g-technology.com/products/G-RAID-mini.cfm If I use realtime capture using Cineform. Thanks, John |
John, I don't think you need Raid if you capture with Cineform.
Regular 7200 rpm SATA HDD would do fine. Also, I have 2 HD capture setups based on Intensity, one of them is mobile - it fits in the pelican case *including the 20" HDMI monitor* and a mini desktop PC. Works great. I even powered it by the car battery on location, worked flawlessly. (You can see Newegg ad on our website; external scene was shot with it.) Will sell it soon, since I have another one now. |
Hehe you're selling your portable system? :)
I have 200GB 7200 rpm on my Macbook Pro. Cineform is about 80mbit/s right? So how much Cineform footage can I store per 100GB via realtime HDMI capture? Cheers, John |
Roughly 30Gb/hour with the highest quality ("Large") Aspect HD setting, after 2:3 pulldown removal.
Probably a bit larger file size for Neo/Prospect HD. This is on PC side with AVIs. |
