Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. How well does this work for leagacy video transfer from VHS without dropping frames or stopping at dropped frames?

A: The HD Express likely would have worked well for this application, but since MOTU is moving away from video interfaces, I can't in good faith recommend the HD Express due to its compatibility limitations: If you need further assistance, please contact customerservice@motu.com.

Q: 2. I can use it as a monitor on real 5.1 final cut pro x ?

Q: 4. I have an older Macbook Pro (around 2008). Will this work?I want to capture video from the component output of my old Sony HVR Z1U camcorder to 1080p in Final Cut Pro or Adobe Premiere Pro.Will this do it?Many thanks.

A: Sorry update: Not my Macbook Pro. My Mac Pro (tower).Couldn't find a way to edit the original question.

Q: 5. Does this unit maintain the 4x3 shvs, composite and component 4x3 aspect ration when converted to HDMI?

A: The aspect ratio will remain 4:3: Default Mode: As explained in chapter 5, “HD Express Basics” (page 23), HD Express has two modes of operation: Capture and Playback. Your host video software determines the mode, depending on what you are doing (i.e. capturing or playing back the timeline). The Default Mode setting (Figure 6-1) lets you choose which mode the HD Express enters when the host relinquishes control over the HD Express hardware, such as when you quit or switch out of your host software. If you spend most of your time just monitoring or just capturing, operation will be faster if you set this to the mode you expect to use most. https://bit.ly/3w24jhS

Q: 7. I have an Asus Gaming laptop w/HDMI port. Using Adobe Premiere Elements to capture live DV. Will this device allow me to capture video?

A: This unit currently supports MAC operating software only. However Windows support will be coming soon, but that will work with Premiere Pro, not Elements. Also you will need a PCI Express Port on your laptop to connect it, the HDMI Port on your laptop is for outputting a monitor signal. You will not be able to capture video through that HDMI Port. You may want to look in to something like the Startech USB 3.0 Video Capture Device. This would allow you to capture a wide variety of inputs, it has included recording/streaming software and is compatible with Windows computers.

Q: 8. Does it come with capture software? Or do you need to use an old version of Premiere Pro to capture? Can you also set how long it will capture for then stop?

A: It does not come with capture software, but should work on versions of Premiere CS5 or later, as per manufacturer specs. In and out points are not set on this device but should be entered on the software interface being used.

Q: 9. I have a MacBook Pro (Retina, Mid 2012) with thunderbolt and usb3. Is this product fully functional with a thunderbolt to express card adapter?

A: JMR makes a PCIe to Thunderbolt adapter that will allow you to connect this device to your computer. However its full functionality will depend on the specs of your computer more so than the connection. MacBook Pros tend to be powerful machines, even when they are a few years old, so I do not think there will be any issues.

Q: 10. Is the PCIe HDMI card an HDMI-in ?

A: Sorry, but the answer is no. The PCI card is used only for connection to the interface. It does not pass a raw HDMI signal.
