Hi, has anyone try the Intensity Pro capture card with HDMI connection from Blackmagic? or is there any better suggestion? thanks in advance for your response.

I have an Intensity Pro. its a good card. Worth every $... The mjpeg codec is fast (but need a lot of hdd space...)

Are you guys actually capturing through the HDMI port?
If so, can i assume that you're missing the timecode?

Marcelo, is it possible to capture via firewire into Premiere, and have it transcode to the MJPEG codec for viewing on an external monitor?

When you say fast MJPEG, do you mean, colour correction, effects, resize etc....can keep up with playback speed?


Thanx....

I have the IntensityPro and capture via HDMI with FCP6. You are correct, I do not have machine control nor can I capture timecode. I was hoping I could Capture media via HDMI and have machine control and capture timecode via firewire.

I use capture now and convert HDV to DVProHD or ProRes in realtime both playback via HDMI to a 52" plasma. works great.
