hi there, this is a spec for a d.v budget video editing system. i am planning to use it with premiere 6.5. i will be doing basic editing, nothing fancy (effects etc). One thing i have been confused about is video capture. i will be capturing from mini d.v camera. So am i right in thinking all i need is a standard firewire port. This particular motherboard has firewire, so in theory i do not need the DV WIZARD firewire card?
(i already have a Maxtor harddisk which i will use for the o/s. the hard drive list here will be used purely for the data.)
If anyone could give me some feedback on this spec it would be much appreciated,
cheers, tudor.
