Suckers are also known for their obstinate behavior in persisting with making OE's (Operator Errors).
This comprises using the wrong hardware, the wrong source material, using the software wrongly, using polluted systems, having the wrong expectations, etc.
For the rest, a nice and vague rant. Was there a question?

nickdbomb Aug 20, 2011 9:52 AM (in response to nickdbomb)Thanks to Matrox tech support, I have a smooth running HD workflow.
The problems with my laptop could have been avoided if Adobe had a clean upgrade path. I was upgrading software from Procuction Premium CS4, 32bit Vista to 64 bit Windows 7 and CS5.5. I discussed this upgrade with Adobe and Matrox, I have the MX02. The MX02 did not have the CS5.5 drivers ready untill a few months after CS5.5 was released. I wanted to know if I should wait for the CS5.5 Matrox drivers to upgrade. Both Adobe and Matrox said It would be possible to use CS4 on Windows 7 OS to be compatiple with the MX02 CS4 drivers then load CS5.5 when the drivers were released.
What they did not say that this would cause many problems. They also did not say that uninstlling CS4 completly is NOT possible using the Adobe cleaner tool. After using the cleaner tool I was able to open CS4 programs and repeted unistall attempts did not work, Adobe tech support emailed a list of files to manually delete then reinstall CS5.5. I little better. The CS4 programs were gone but BSOD and system freezes were regularly accuring. It appears there may have been several complication caused by the CS4 never being completely removed despite using the cleaner tools and manual removal recommended by Adobe's tech support. Matrox tech support took the time to look at all the settings and cleared out unwanted files. The BSOD and Premiere freezing finally stopped.
This portable workflow is capable of live HD Capture of Matrox 1080p MPEG2 over SDI with live ouput from the MX02 to a HDMI monitor. The video is pristine and can be captured on a single external 1394a drive. It is better than the excellent quality using the 1080p MPEG4 to the memory cards route.The laptop has an SD card slot so I can view the clips captured on the EX1 in the Sony Clip Browser. The Sony browser has a fast workflow for reviewing, labeling and copying to a mirrored 2 drive raid for safe keeping and transport to the edit suite. Importing clips into Premiere they can be seen on a HDMI monitor. Rough cuts can be created and transcoded faster than realtime to h.264 for distibution with the MX02 with MAX.
That's as much as I need on a shoot but having SDI compatiple with OnLocation would help.
