Today’s video production workflows benefit tremendously from applications that are architected and optimized for 64-bit operating systems. You can experience 50% to 200% faster high-definition (HD) workflows moving from 32-bit with 4GB of RAM to 64-bit with 16GB of RAM. Performance gains include increased editing speed, rapid switching among tools, and faster rendering—all of which give you more time to be creative with CS4 Production Premium. ( Read More)

Its official – Videoguys now recommends Windows Vista 64 for your video editing workstation!
We've been warning our customers to stay away from Vista for quite some time, and we still do not recommend the 32-bit version because the operating requires a lot of RAM for reliable operation and that's one of the greatest advantages of Vista 64. ( Read More)

The feelings around this year's NAB Show were of apprehension, tension and excitement. With the announcements that first Avid, and then Apple had pulled out of the show, no one was really quite sure what to expect. When we hit the show floor on Monday it was a bit disorienting. No longer was Avid the first booth you saw in the South Hall, and nowhere to be seen where all the folks scurrying around the Apple booth. Instead, the show had a more open and even flow to it. While the traffic was defin ( Read More)

Last spring we updated our DIY5 article to reflect the then latest round of Dual Core processors. Almost as soon as the article came out, we found ourselves bombarded with questions about Quad core CPUs. Back then you paid a pretty hefty premium for them, so we didn't feel it was necessary to build a DIY machine for Quad core. That pricing model held true until the end of last year, when Intel dropped the prices on their Quad core processors and made them just a slight premium over a Core 2 Duo. ( Read More)

One of the things I like best about NAB is the chance to see all the new hardware coming down the road for video editing and production. Over the past few years computers have become so powerful that we can edit DV footage extremely well with just software alone. With the move to HD the software can handle the footage, but it takes some extra hardware to get the job done right. This can be as simple as some additional storage, an I/O board or a hardware accelerator. At this years NAB there were ( Read More)

This year’s NAB started for us on Saturday, April 14th, two days before the actual show opened! We spent our weekend attending dealer and user events for with our vendors. The advantage of these events is that you get to spend a good amount of time watching presentations about the road map and new products for each company. These meetings are very cool and they tend to set the tone for the coming week. While Adobe, Avid and Apple all had very exciting news to share, we walked away realizing tha ( Read More)

As NAB2007 rolls around this April, we want to take the time and offer a DIY update article for you. Our DIY4 and DIY5 dual core machines are still an excellent recipe to follow. We still advise anyone planning on building a new machine (or having one built for them) to reference both these articles. We looked over the configs from those two articles and tweaked them a little, and then we re-priced them to reflect the most current pricing on the web. We ended up with 4 models all told.
