Has anyone tried the Matrox MXO2 Mini

Has anyone tried the Matrox MXO2 Mini yet? I thought I read a post where Cineform was going to test it with there software.

Working pretty well. We have Neo Scene (or any of our PC tools) playing out 1920x1080 through MXO2 Mini, from CS4.1 quite nicely.

I have the same interest, but, in the AJA I/O Express. The I/O Express incorporates both hd-SDI and HDMI.

Not for Prospect. We are working on AJA IOExpress for Prospect. The Matrox MXO2 doesn't have what we need to directly plug-in (yet -- fingers crossed.)

Does it look hopeful? Will Matrox work with you?

We have a good relationship Matrox, but I can't say what might happen.

When you use the Matrox editing mode, the CineForm files from any of our tools with work with the Matrox MXO2.

Well I just bought it a few days ago and the h264 encoder.
If it wont work with Prospect (which I own) is it worth purchasing NeoScene to get the use out of the box :-(

Prospect HD include all of Neo HD and Neo Scene, the big packages have all the features of the others. While you are welcome to buy more from us :), you don't need to. The only issue was playout to MXO2 using the Prospect HD edit mode, but you don't have to use that edit mode, your media still works.
