I've a Macbook pro with a HVX200 i'd like how can i monitoring my image with Adobe Onlocation software.

Check out this thread: . Also Adobe OnLocation is a Windows app so you'd have to load windows onto your Macbook.

Don't forget there is a similar product for MAC, it's called DV Monitor & DV Monitor Pro. These are made by Red lightning software.

No, Adobe CS4 for the Mac includes OnLocation.

enviajador, you connect the HVX200 to your laptop with the 1394 cable. You will not be able to use the 720p N modes because they are not fed through 1394. But everything else will be.

ScopeBox will do this on a Mac as well.

Could this be done on an EX1 or HPX170? How about the HPX300?

And more importantly, how would the quality compare to a normal HD monitor? Would it lag at all and would it be sharp enough to pull focus from?

Anybody know?

The HPX170, yes. The HPX300, only when in DVCPRO-HD mode. The EX1, yes-ish. Not for HQ footage. The only thing that comes out of the firewire port of an EX1 is HDV so you'd be monitoring an HDV signal.

Is there a usb or pcmcia route to get the rgb signal from a HVX into a laptop?
