Radius 81/110 power supply needed

[David Barnes]

Hi Jeff.. thanks for the tip...
 >>What kind of video capture are you using in there?   Is it a Video  
Vision Studio?

Yes it is... VideoVision Telecast to be exact.

 >>One thing that's keeping it down on the list of things to do next  
is all the (old) talk about fiddling to get decent frame rates.   Is  
it really that hard?

Well yes and no... I have qty 4 Seagate Elite 9gb drives (5.25" full  
height) attached to the Jackhammer and its 'right on the edge'.   
Meaning I can get a capture with no dropped frames (or maybe just 1  
when you start the capture), but then another day for no reason it  
might drop a couple frames.... I have been told that a Radius Studio  
Array is 'tuned' for this system... but never got my hands on one yet.

To be honest, in the days (5 years ago) before I mastered everything  
on DVD I used to edit short films etc with this system and master  
them back out on a 3/4" deck and it looked great.   I do all my work  
(this is a hobby really) now in a Powermac G5 with Final Cut Pro so I  
have not really used this anymore in about 2.5 years.   Just don't  
have the heart to get rid of it after all the long hours I put into  
it getting it running right.

If you want more help getting yours running we can take this  
offline... send me an email... I have LOTS of notes I made when I  
went through the setup phase...
