What's the fastest method to create a 8GB video image from an SDHC card from a video camera using a G4 1.25 machine? Toast or disk Utility? Does processor speed matter? Does max ram help? What adaptors work best?

Do you mean a DVD? Or do you mean just copying the video file to disk?

If it's the latter, copying the file from the SDHC card to disk, then to DVD via either toast or Disk utility would work, no more ram won't help.

If you mean authoring a DVD from the file on the SDHC card, well that is not likely to be fast under any circumstances, since it'll involve transcoding the video to DVD format. I think Toast offers some rudimentary features for that purpose, otherwise I'd use iDVD or Sizzle, if you can find a copy.



Just want to get an image off the SD card so we can use it again We have to run 8 cameras at one time and need to swap cards fast.
