Does Xena LHe work with CS5 now? at DVinfo.net

Does Neo 4K "Windows Version" send output to the Xena LHe card under CS5 yet? If so, how do you enable this setting?

AFAIK, Cineform and Aja work under CS5. There is a post somewhere in the Cineform forum that says you must use either an Aja or Cineform preset but I can't recall which. Find Tim Kolb here and ask him as he teaches Premiere Pro CS5 classes and has an upcoming class on Cineform, Aja and CS5; so, he would know.

Thanks for your help. I scanned the post and found a few which talks about the changes with CS5. The one below is from David Newman:

We are turning I/O support on its head -- the way it should be. I/O vendors will be support CineForm native not the other way around. So it will be an AJA preset that supports CineForm through that card, and hopeful and BlackMagic preset and Matrox preset that does the same. The these new presets will still work with all the features of FirstLight and gain the benefit that are particular to the the I/O card. The CineForm preset will provide desktop and secondary monitor playback through openGL surfaces (graphics cards.) For Mercury acceleration you will select the appropriate NVidia card.
