Re: Sky+ SDI Output

["Nick Long" <n.long@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

just FYI to everyone - SDI is what the TV industry uses for high end video
signals. When I edit at work, I use SDI to capture and output everything -
it's totally uncompressed because of the hardware we have. It can also
carry
audio and video down one cable.

If you'd like to know a bit more about SDI, please feel free to e-mail me
offlist and i'll try and answer your questions! :-)
