Video File Formats

For the money, this is a great little player. Works, hold a charge, rugged, multiple file formats - what else do you want?

We just ordered the iMac Pro 27/10C/64GB/2TB/RPV64 for our Production Director. The iMac that he was using in the past wasn't able to handle the large file formats that he has access to. This iMac is able to handle the large file formats with ease and has increased overall productivity. Couldn't be happier with it's overall performance!

I've been using Print File negative sleeves for film formats from 35mm to 4x5-in. for over 30 years. They are made of neutral, archival plastic that preserves negatives effectively.

Only drive I use for my video file backups.

I use it for video file storage/editing for 2 years and have never had a problem.

Universal B&W for all formats.

Reference B&W for all formats.

These are quiet and quick. Using them in my video file server.

The world of digital video and more particularly, High Definition video is much like entering the places and characters so entertainingly described by Lewis Carroll's Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. There are P's and I's and all sorts of numbers to confuse and bemuse even the most professional videographer. Worse, impending new and higher definition formats loom on the horizon. The Decimater MD-Cross makes it easy to produce a test signal at almost any resolution up to and including 3G in almost any frame rate. It also has the incredibly valuable feature of being a test pattern generator in those same formats. It takes HDMI in, SDI in and can scale or not scale outputs to HDMI and SDI. The small display allows reasonably quick changes to any of the many parameters including superimposing text and various borders for centering and framing. It really is a dandy unit. The only thing I'd like is for them to add a second HDMI output.

We used this drive to capture video from multiple tape formats. The drive was formatted properly out of the box and performed perfectly.
