Hi,
will Neo (or Neo Player) run on Windows XP 64bit edition?
Thank you for any info

It should do. Please try it out.

Hello David and everyone,

today we decided to buy two copies of Neo 2K. I was playing with tryout for a couple of weeks and found out it's very cool and must have stuff. Now I am thinking about upgrading to XP64 because of it's ability to address more RAM. I hope it will boost our After Effects workstations performance, especially when using Nucleo or upcoming CS3 multiprocessor feature (running several instances of AE each of them capable to alocate 3GB+). But it's a MAJOR DECISION. I must be more then sure if all main components we are using every day are compatible with XP64bit OS. And Cineform is one of them. We have no spare Xeon workstation for test purposes only nor bought XP64 yet. We also cannot stop our work for a day or two, just because we overlooked some hidden incompatibility and then roll back.

So, please, if David or anyone else have more info, covering this problem, I'll be very happy.

Thanks

The primary features of the CineForm work fine. AJA capture via X64 may require a component change, otherwise NEO 2K is X64 ready.
