Intensity(Pro) vs CineForm

Hi all

I'm currently evaluating my options for HDV editing (1080i50).
I have started w/ PPro2's native HDV mode. With about 7-8h
worth of footage in the bins and several sequences, it has
gone very instable, and I'd like to have the "live" output
back (What the FireWire preview gave me for DV). In order to
be "more editable" in AfterEffects etc I'd like to go to an
intermediate codec. As the RTX2 is somewhat out of my current
budget as it is reported to be very picky about the machine
thus requiring a specialized one, I came up with the following
options:
1) Blackmagic Intensity (Pro):
- gives me output to HDMI/Component
- has a mjpeg intermediate codec
2) CineForm AspectHD:
- no output to HDMI/Component
- wavelet based codec (better than mjpeg)

Some questions I have / areas I'd like to know your experiences
with:
- Can both of these codes be used by "all" applications that
deal with video? (eg. converters; I need to convert my
.m2t files to the new codec)
- quality of the mjpeg codec compared to using native hdv.
(HDV native requires me to go non-HDV from AfterEffects,
and I cannot get ProCoder Express to create an HDV clip
that plays back "in real time" in PPro2 (as opposed to
clips that come from the camera via firewire)
- does PPro2 maintain stability, responsiveness etc with
those solutions?
- any other experience I should factor in my decision?

Primarily, I want to be able to work with HDV in PPro like
I could with DV thru firewire. Ie I'd like to have realtime
output to video projector / tv at least when rendered (not
export to tape which fails w/o message in my hdv project
right now). And I want to use a codec that works well with
AfterEffects. I cannot go uncompressed at the moment.

Hope this all makes sense, thanks a lot for your input!
