3rd Party Rescue

Just a quick update on a previous post I had made... If you work in post-production and need to read Quicktime files on your PC that have DVCPro50 or DVCProHD content in them exported out of Final Cut Pro, there's a new "utility" by the smart guys over at dvfilm.com. Prior to this $95 Quicktime add-in component by DVFilm, it was impossible to read these types of files on a PC and would require converting them on a Mac into a PC-readable codec such as AJA or Blackmagic.

I have not used this component yet, but I have used other products by DVFilm, and they work very well as advertised. Give it a shot if you find yourself in a bind and need to read these types of QT files.
