Does Vista Have Native Support For Dvcpro Hd Codecs / Hvx200? (attempt #2)

Anyone record direct from HVX200 --> Firewire --> Vista (Premium or Ultimate) via Windows MovieMaker?

The HD codes are a differentiator between Premium/Ultimate versions and other Vista versions.

I know it requires a hard disc that runs at 5400 RPS (about 1/2 laptops have HDs with this speed) and about 2G RAM but am wondering if anyone has used this to shoot footage.

The value is that you have larger HD space (e.g., easily 90 minutes at 1080i 24p with a 100G HD) than the firestore and don't require special software to record HD.

second question: So anyone record into a laptop / Mac in a backpack with HVX200 and have cooling issues?

Basically I am trying to avoid the numerous $1200 PS2 cards or Firestore and to be able to film 90 minutes+ concert footage.

Thanks in advance,

Without DV RACK HD 2.0, there isn't a way to record direct to anything on a PC to my knowledge. You need a editing app to do that or DV RACK HD.
