Hardware Requirements:

ATTO UL3D SCSI card with 1.6.6 firmware, running 3.2.0 drivers.

Refer to the web site at www.digitalvoodoo.net for further details.

A Playback Offset of +1 frame may be required in Final Cut Pro's Device Control Presets for accurate Edit To Tape.
A Capture Offset of +1.6 frames may be required in Final Cut Pro's Device Control Presets for accurate batch captures.

Note for customers with capture cards that do not support audio:
The Final Cut Pro Easy Setup preset files in the installer assume that your card has audio.
For those capture cards that do not support audio, Final Cut Pro disables capture/preview when these Easy Setups are selected.

To allow your card to capture in Final Cut Pro, you will need to manually edit the relevant Voodoo Capture Preset in the Audio/Video Settings dialog:
- set the QuickTime Audio Device to 'Built-in Audio'. (Final Cut Pro 5.0.4 disables Log and Capture preview if you select 'None'.)
- select the appropriate Digital Voodoo QuickTime Video Digitizer
- select the corresponding Digital Voodoo Compressor
- select the frame rate

Known Issues:
- Capture of non-4:2:2 formats may miss the first frame of selected time-code interval.
- On G4 computers, waking from sleep may result in frozen mouse. Workaround - wake from sleep using the keyboard (rather than clicking or moving the mouse).
- If about two-thirds of your desktop is getting overwritten by black, your card requires a firmware upgrade to be Tiger compatible.
- Final Cut Pro Easy Setups may not work correctly in non-English languages. The correct Audio/Video Settings have been published at:

- Photoshop export plug-in does not support images larger than 1920x1080
