There are many other ways of doing ingest, but that is the simplest and most fool proof method. No other software or error checking is needed.

OK Thats easy :) Only reason I use Catalyst Browse/Browser, was I thought it was a more secure way of copying my SXS cards.

Thank Doug.

I hope this answers your questions. Oops, I just noticed one of the FAIL boxes isn't white. Gotta make a note to fix that in the next edition.

Thank you. :)

Andrew, are you a hobbyist? Because if you earn a living at video production you should really upgrade immediately. Pennywise and pound foolish. :-) I assure you that whatever arguments you have about software rental are totally misguided. Of course, if you don't care about making money and you don't value your time in that way, then use whatever you want.

I'm due for a hardware upgrade and that's going to make the biggest 'next thing' difference at this stage. I can always re-evaluate software later.
