    XPPro32bit--too late to purchase+...?

    Hmmm...this is invaluable information-thanks.I am slowly coming to the realisation that the great part of my research which relied on my long-term friend's knowledge may not have been such a good thing. To be fair, he doesn't work with video editing on a daily basis, & I would say that his...

    XPPro32bit--too late to purchase+...?

    I am sure that you and all others here appreciate that if one has unlimited resources ie money, then one can spend one's way to a machine and system that is a video editor's wet dream!! In contrast to your brother's system, my own will utilise Premiere Pro 2.00. PP2 works well with XPPRO 32bit...

    XPPro32bit--too late to purchase+...?

    Yes, as you can see in Newegg.com comments section, there is a shortage of software suitable for 64bit. This is the problem I had encountered in my research. So, all things considered, it was 32bit or nothing. However, I believe that I have been reliably informed by someone who is Japanese and...

    XPPro32bit--too late to purchase+...?

    Thanks very much for this.This is the kind of detail & 'guiding light' that i have been seeking. Thanks very much again for this & the effort. As to Windows 2K, yes, I haven't done the research on this mainly because I have been told by two others in the computing industry (one a long time...

    XPPro32bit--too late to purchase+...?

    Thanks. But practical considerations, and much research and planning have gone into my decision, and it is too far along to change now. Also, do you have any knowlege of the availability of XP Pro 32 bit for general purchase, and if Microsoft is still manufacturing it?

    XPPro32bit--too late to purchase+...?

    This is one of the things I am trying to determine. In other words, XP Pro 32 bit is fine for editing SD and ....what other formats?? I should be clear -- Win2K is for use in a download-only machine. But, in the set up I have outlined, what problems can I anticipate, if any? And solutions to...

    XPPro32bit--too late to purchase+...?

    Thanks. However, my initial question concerned your knowledge of whether XP Pro 32 bit is still available from stores if I wanted to buy it today, or only available from other places. And if you have any idea if Microsoft is still manufacturing it or not? Yes. This may be so, but assuming...

    XPPro32bit--too late to purchase+...?

    I am now _very_ close to putting in my order for my video workstation. The OS of choice is XP Pro 32 bit. i)PURCHASE: I am starting to become anxious, as I have recently read that XP (PRO)is no longer being sold by Microsoft. If so, then I am screwed, as I do not wish to use Vista, and there...

    building a PC editing computer...

    I am comparing two quotations for having a box built especially for Non Linear Editing, with that of a Dell desktop with required specifications. I don't have a technical background, so it is hard for me to say what you have is good enough or not. But, a quick read seems to indicate that it...

    Choice of camera-how many previous models should you consider?

    Five days & 100 views later, still no reply. Not from the film school attendees, or the 'seniors' here, or others. Was there something wrong with the questions? something people did not understand...? I am able to clarify if desired. Thanks.

    Choice of camera-how many previous models should you consider?

    I am currently researching for a 'training' camera in the USD1,200 to 1,500 range. I can create a list of these by examination of the major manufacturer websites, which appear to present models that were released within the past 6 months (and those forthcoming). I think that I do not need...

    Editing your post

    Thanks; I have resolved the issue. Though I have broadband, I still have trouble with a slow download speed, it seems--in this instance, things like the edit & other buttons were a bit slow. My box is a bit on the old side, so this might have something to do with it...?

    Editing your post

    I would like to edit a post, but have failed to find an 'edit' button. Is it possible to edit a post say 12 hours later, or does one have to ask the assistance of the moderator? Thanks.

    what exactly does a 1st AD do?

    resources for 1st AD + I am currently in discussions with an independent filmmaker for a job as a 'first' for his film. We worked together on the set of an another indie. The job will involve 'crowd control' ie. dealing with extras, and other things which I do not know about yet, but might...

    Sending a member a PM

    Thanks very much. I am used to another version of vBulletin, in a different colour-didn't think to do it this way/didn't register [sound of hand slapping forehead].That seems to have solved the problem. Now, if the recipient has cleaned out his inbox...

    Sending a member a PM

    Well, thanks. Hmmm...in this particular instance, it appears that the only private means of contact is via the said person's website. However, this appears to have some serious technical problems, as far as I can figure. The person is one of the majors here. Perhaps I could provide my email...

    Sending a member a PM

    I have given a serious look around the site, but haven't been able to find any place or any way that I can send a PM to a fellow member. Have I been looking in the wrong place/s, or is this facility just not available? Thanks.

    Deciphering 'producer speak'

    I followed up a pitch to an overseas producer for what amounted to provision of on-the-ground research services. A number of calls and initial discussions had been made - today they all came to naught. I am very new to the documentary industry, and am seeking to learn the language and...
