Are there considerable lag issues with editing HDV media from a network attached drive?

The main issue you'll have is the bandwidth out of the device into your system. My boss does a great deal of editing on a MacBook Pro, with an external ESATA drive - and he's always hitting the bandwidth throughput cap if he attempts to capture video from a camera / deck, through the MBP, to the external drive. We ended up taking his MBP to the Apple store for the largest AND fastest RPM hard drive possible, then we reinstalled Final Cut.As long as he captures directly to the MBP, then off-loads the captured media to the external drive, it works flawlessly.

For the Adobe based non-linear editors in the studio, we have them interconnected with Cat 6 gigabit Ethernet to a gigabit switch with a central server for storage of finished work. Even then, we only use the server to copy media we need locally, then edit it. I'd never trust the system to capture directly to the server shared directory - too many aborted captures / dropped frames.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
