Digi003 to Canopus possible?

Hi slutz,

Was wondering about;

Using canopus advc 110, is it possible to run firewire video out of a digi003?

MacBook pro --> digi003 --> canopus.

Thanks!

Dennis

I'd say try it out, but I think you might run into issues. For one, if it works, the FW offset will be greater.

According to Digi, the 003 should reside on it's own port on the computer, not on a hub. I also take this to mean that you should probably run both off separate FW ports. Although it's always worth a shot.

If you run into issues, another shot would be to get a FW express card for the slot onthe side of your macbook pro, that way you'd be running off different internal busses.

Did you ever try this out? I have been wondering the same thing.

Thanks,

it works...sometimes... The "disk to slow" error keeps popping up. Now I put the 003 on the 400 port of MBP and a external disk on the 800 port. I daisychain the Canopus with a 400 on the external disk. This works most of the time. When booting sometimes I get the "disk to slow" error but a workaround is to turn off the external disk, reboot osx and then turn on the external disk again. This route was 100% stable. It would be better to get an express card with a extra 400 slot..
