Neo HD and SI2K 2048 x 1152 footage at DVinfo.net

Bob Hart · December 10th, 2010, 10:29 AM

I am being confronted with the need to bite the bullet, replace/rebuild the computor and upgrade to CS5 and Cineform Neo.

I may have confused myself but my reading on NeoHD is that it is good for 1920 x 1080. I could not find a Neo2K so I presume one has to buy in Neo4K for true ability to manage 2048 x 1152 footage.

I have an existing Prospect 2K v3 licence and understand there is an upgrade path.

Can anyone put me right on my assumptions?

Thanks in advance.

Prospect 2K become 4K (at some point years ago.) P4K v3 upgrade to Neo4K v5 is only $200.

Hello again David.

Thanks for that info. Between drive deaths, re-installs and a few demo downloads, I thought I had P4K but have only P2K licenced. Currently the computer won't do anything except desktop mode. Something went across inside somewhere with a buzz, a snap and a burnt cockroach stink and it stopped.

I cleaned everything but it only works when I press on the motherboard and operate one-handed or lay the thing on its side with some weight on it, (small rock inside a rag). It operates slower these days and tells me to load default values and continue everytime I switch it on, so I guess it is about time.
