JES Movie RAID
Two hours of NTSC video will easily fit on two 70 GB 10.000rpm UW SCSI disks.
Movie RAID comes with a configuring utility which lets you set the disks to save to (up to 4) and set a timer for unattended recording (multiple recordings possible, programmed up to 23 hours ahead of time).
Movie RAID digitizes both audio and video.
You can digitize only top half or bottom half of the frames if you like. Alternatively, digitize odd or even field. The two can easily be recombined.
After digitizing you have the option to have the video frame durations regularized (for example 100 on time scale 2997). This can prevent loss of frames in editing applications or in conversion to DV or DVD. The audio will be resampled to stay in sync if necessary. Sample rate options are 22.05 kHz, 44,1 kHz, 32 kHz and 48 kHz.
Version 0.5 preserves sync between audio and video even after hours of recording (assuming steady drift).
The program works with Mac OS 9 and QuickTime 4.1.1 or higher.
This software comes close to unleashing the full digitizing power of the early PCI AV PowerMacs!
As goodies I have included the Regularize utility and the SetMovieDataRefs utility.
The former is the stand-alone version of the regularize frames feature.
The latter is for fixing data references which may get broken if you copy a reference movie and its data files to another disk.
