Re: LHe output HD via Component

Thanks everyone for your support!!! Based on the feedback I have here and directly from AJA, I'm thinking that it's the eSATA card I have is not fast enough for HD. I've got it on a x4 slot slot, but System Profiler is saying it's maxed out at x1. The eSata card is a Sonnet E2P (I believe, it's been a long time since I bought it). Typically, I only need two drives connected (rarely ever RAID'ed because each project is small enough to have it's own 1.5 TB drive) at once. However, my main client is moving towards shooting everything in HD. I've got to get this external monitor situation solved so any help would be terrific!

I'm not sure if you need this info, but I do not do much system capture or ingest. Nor do I do final layback to tape. I get drives with the material already captured and send back a drive with the mastering materials on it.
