Herman Robak [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote on Wed, 2007-05-23 Are you considering hard disk recording of uncompressed HD video? That will require a striping RAID, so it will be heavy and pricey. You might as well get a semi-pro camera with SDI-HD output, which is intended for such use. Or

When camera is operating, the EIP generates uncompressed 1440x1080i with a 4:2:2 color space. Digital 4:2:2 data are output via the HDMI port, while 4:2:2 analog is output via component out. Therefore you can record 4.2:2 live HD cideo from the camera without MPEG-2 compression. portable

Terje, That's interesting information. Steve Mullen knows his stuff. One thing to remember is that if you don't want to spend the money on an external hard drive recorder, you can use a laptop with firewire to capture the incoming stream using VLC. Also, check out the forums on www.dvinfo.com

HDV 1080i uses a pixel resolution 1440x1080 on tape. The rectangular pixel aspect ratio h:v=4:3=1.33, so when displayed the video frame is scaled to an aspect ratio of (1440x1.33)x1080=1920x1080 or 16:9. What I wonder is: 1) Does the HDV video frame imported to Cinelerra get a resolution of
