DIY Update: Sandy Bridge Not Recommended by Videoguys
by: 
 5/02/2011 9:34 AM
As you know Videoguys.com has been publishing DIY guides and system recommendation pages for years. We always make sure the latest version of Avid or Adobe Production Premium runs great on it. We are asked constantly about Sandy Bridge and if we recommend it. As of today we do NOT recommend Sandy Bridge for high end NLE workstations. We feel that if you need a new machine today, your best solution is to stick with an X58 based machine like our DIY8 build. Read More

Matrox performs to the MAX at Glyndebourne
by: 
 4/28/2011 3:52 PM
The Matrox MXO2 LE MAX is used by Glyndebourne to produce up to 40 short films a season.

“At Glyndebourne, operas are filmed on HDCAM and it’s not financially viable for us to buy and maintain our own tape deck, so the MXO2 LE MAX can link to a hired deck and capture high quality HD operas into our edit systems. The key thing is that it enables us to record in a variety of video compression formats - i.e. store played-in material in Apple Pro Res HQ or any codec of our choice”. Read More

 4/23/2011 7:27 AM
Avid was first out of the gate in the run-up to NAB with its release of the Media Composer 5.5 update for this flagship NLE product line. Avid Media Composer 5.5 (and the associated Symphony and NewsCutter versions) marks a continued openness starting with the release of Media Composer 5.0 last year. That release demonstrated a major retooling, which drew mixed reviews from veteran Avid editors. The most recent version, 5.0.3.8, is very stable and has been tweaked to adjust the behavior of some Read More
