Hello Adobe,
I would like to ask that you take a close a look at the state of third party hardware I/O integration from you partners AJA, MATROX, and Blackmagic Design. If you browse any of the forums within the last few months, the common thread is that CS-5 and CS-5.5 is not working correctly with any of these hardware cards. I am certain that they did not try to put out an inferior product or bad drivers. There has been some speculation that the SDK kit provided to these vendors is not up to par. I am not a hardware or software engineer so I cannot speak to that speculation. What I can say is that in my own experience, I have felt the pain of all of these other users across all the different forums. If all three hardware vendors are having difficulties making their products work then I start to look at a higher level.
Adobe..can you please get your best engineers together for a summit with the best engineers from the three partners AJA, MATROX, and Blackmagic Design and get this figured out. We want to use your software professionally, but this is holding us back.
Thanks
Ray Tragesser
