I've been using Neo HDV ver. 3.xxx. Most recent Neo HDV update (discontinued) only takes HDLink to ver 3.xxx, and it looks like I need to upgrade to Neo Scene to capture 5dII files with HDLink 4.x. I guess there is no cross-grade deal and will have to pay the $129. Assuming Neo Scene will also support HDV, or is there a better way to go.

Using Vegas 8.0d with XLH1 and HV30

Any advice appreciated.

Ken:

That is what I had to do. Seems like there was some kind of cross grade deal initially. But you can buy NeoScene at VideoGuys.com for about $100.00.

By the way, I keep NeoHDV ready to go, because I like to resize occasionally, and NeoScene does not give that capability. You cannot have both installed at same time, but you can deinstall and reinstall without losing your registration key. A bit of a hassle, but worth it if you have to get back the NeoHDV for some reason.

From NEO HDV you can cross grade to Neo Scene for $69 or upgrade to NEO HD for $250. Getting the First Light application for only $250 is the way to go.

Thanks guys - I'll dig a deeper into th Cineform site before deciding between Neo Scene & Neo HD

Best way to go it to try them both.
