How useful are Matrox RT.X10 type real-time pci editing cards?
I'm shooting a documentary this summer and will then be editing the
footage on a PC. I've recently read a review of the Matrox RT.X10(0)
cards, which made them sound extremely useful when it comes to
editing. They come with a substantial Adobe software bundle also,
which would be useful to me as I don't have any editing software yet.
In practice how useful are these cards? I'm asking now rather than
when I start editing, as I need to decide soon on whether to buy a
laptop or desktop for editing. If they are very time saving then I'll
build myself a desktop and buy one of these PCI cards.
The documentary that I'm shooting won't be strictly talking heads, as
I have ideas for visual effects and transitions that I'd like to
include, that might be time consuming to preview.
Are there other PCI cards and software bundles that offer similar
features as the Matrox/Adobe bundle that anyone can recommend?
Any help appreciated.
