Tom,

I burn BluRay to either a 4.7 or 8.5 GB DVD using AVCHD content direct from the camcorder .mts files. You may indeed have an issue using 23.976 fps or perhaps you have yet to try the...

Well, not exactly. This Firecoder card is for transcoding to and from AVCHD into mpeg2, and speeds up this process. It does not get used like the Matrox to render real-time previews during the...

As regards the differences you and I experience with regard to Vegas speed, it is quite possible that the software scales itself differently on your "near minimum spec machine" versus the...

Actually the Hf200 has a 3.89 MP sensor verson the prior Hf100's 3.2MP.

Mike,
