how would i do that? and what does it mean when you GMan says the field
order might be backwards? what is that? and how to correct? i'd love to
make LE work just from the multicam perspective and we'll probably go ahead
and buy the edius 3 anywho just because i installed the trial version,
captured, and made the output dvd for presentation in one hour and i had no
idea what soever what i was doing other than clicking a bunch of buttons and
see what worked and what didn't.

however, for now i must be able to choose which shot angle from three
different cameras and if i could figure out how to do that easily with
canopus i'd sure give it a shot, because one thing i absolutely hate about
all pinnacle products that i've tried thus far (studio 8, studio 9 =
diasaster, and liquid edition 6) is the way they put files and parts and
pieces of a project all over the place between the hd, the data drive, and
the external drive. geez, trying to find a file outside of LE is like
looking for keys after a 3 day drunk :o( thank God i don't drink anymore
:o)
