Re: Pretty amazing Thunderbolt demo.

And that's great, Michael. It's not practical for you. For me, who often serves as "DIT" it's completely practical or am I not allowed to share my enthusiasm about it? Because it might not work for you, I'm wrong?

We handle our own transcodes, which makes a rocket even more useful.

The reason for my excitement for this demo is that I could personally handle real time capture/proxy creation, data verification, on set playback from a centralized portable system. Then most of that system could also plug right in to a studio environment. Perhaps I am naive, but for us and our needs, it fits right in to how we operate (except the windows part of it).

There no way we would all edit native 4k, which makes a portable rocket even more intriguing. After edit, conform can be done on any available machine, including a laptop. You say you'd need a rocket per machine, I'd say no you wouldn't.

No we don't finish in 4k, but we try and grade from the 4k raw if at all possible.
