Canopus Edius NX HDV Expansion Kit

Edius NX HDV Expansion Kit description:

The EDIUS NX for HDV Expansion Kit delivers the best possible preview of HD compositions and effects, without the expense of SDI-based hardware and displays. The Expansion Kit also features an OHCI-compliant IEEE 1394 FireWire controller, which enables users to connect HDV cameras and decks for video capture and tape export. The inclusion of the FireWire controller also enables the realtime, bidirectional analog/digital conversion function of EDIUS NX for HDV, allowing anyone to use EDIUS NX for HDV as an ADVC from any Windows-based editing application that supports OHCI. The EDIUS NX for HDV Expansion Kit also provides SD component video output, additional unbalanced stereo RCA audio output, and includes the EDIUS NX for HDV Bay.
