Any further word on that laptop monitoring solution? I'm a ConnectHD user and would love to try it. Thanks.

Scott - We are doing some limited beta testing at the moment. I'll contact you directly.

would this be limited to a PC or would a mac work as well?
would it have to be a super face laptop? thanks |
Phil is with AspectHD if I'm not mistaken, which means it's for PC only. I believe...

It is for PC only and it needs to be fast enough to decode the full-res stream in real-time.
So if your laptop can playback one of the transport streams generated by the camera in VLC or some other MPEG2 player with at least a little bit of CPU left over it will probably work. And that's correct Heath. I work for CineForm. |
Any possiblity of getting software vectorscope and waveform while monitoring HDV on the laptop? We use FCP on a laptop for this with DV and it is great since we can't afford hardware scopes.

It looks like Ulead's HDV plugin will do monitoring also on the PC side, but I don't know if it will be fullscreen or not.

A real laptop monitoring solution available
Hi,
At this time, you can use Paul Glagla's Captureflux for incoming DV sources. It's a freeware. And you can use live picture coming from the camcorder in fullscreen at full speed on a 2 GHz laptop http://paul.glagla.free.fr/6.htm In French and usable first for direct capture on Notebook. Try it ! Saylvain Pallix www.repaire.net (French Site about video, more than 28 000 members) |
Is that software DV only? HDV is a different issue, although the idea is similar. I sure that tool could be upgraded.
|
I just noticed that, too. DV.

I think Paul Glaga has no access to HDV camcorder for a release. I will ask him.
Look in my post, i had precised in the first line for incoming DV sources. By waiting for the tool from Cineform, you can use Captureflux with Y/C câble from the JVC camcorder to a compact convert Box (analkogue to DV) like Canopus ADVC-55 (pocket size). Message for David Newman, are Aspect HP and Connect HD PAL ready now ?

Sylvain,
The CFHD codec can handle just about any format. HDLink -- the CineForm capture/convert utility -- will happily convert 720p30, 480p60 and 576p50 without any issues. However, converting the 576p25 is problematic today -- this will be adressed soon. With this one exception Connect HD is ready today. Aspect HD has many more real-time tools than Connect HD, these tools are being finalized to support the p60 and p50 modes that will be part of a free upgrade soon. |
For the Mac folks (like myself) I ran across this on the iMovie page the other day:

Um....of course there needs to be a pretty long cable, too. |
Patrick,
does this have to do with cutting via HDV (the new hi-def video format) from the JVC HD10 or HD1? heath |
Where are we at as far as the Cineform preview? How have the beta tests worked out?
