FCP6 - realtime output to HDMI & S-Video
 
Hello,

We will be setting up a new editing computer whic will be used to edit mostly in HDV. A lot of our projects are edited and mastered in HDV, but usually (for now) we downconvert them to SD for DVD usage. So we are looking for the best/value hardware solution. We will be viewing the HD footage on a Sony 40" LCD with HDMI input, and a Sony CRT monitor with S-Video input. We would like them both to show realtime from an HDV timeline.

The only possible solution I can come up with at this point is a Blackmagic DeckLink HD Extreme ($995) outputting to S-Video to monitor and SDI to a Blackmagic HDLink converter ($445) to HDMI monitor.

Is this the only solution? Has anyone tried a similar approach? Will this setup keep sync? I think AJA's new IoHD would work for my needs but I can't justify $3,500 so I can edit in HDV. I will not be using Pro Rez....

Any thoughts/suggestions would be appreciated.

check out the Black magic Intensity Pro. You get HDMI & analog I/O forunder $350! http://www.videoguys.com/intensitypro.html

Intensity Pro is not simultaneous output
 
Thanks for the suggestion, but the Intensity Pro cannot output to HDMI and s-Video at the same time. You must select one or the other.

too bad - I wasn't sure about that. has anyone tried running 2 intensity Pro cards at the same time, on set to HDNI, the other to analog???
