Version 1.0 Release Notes

Table 1

 list the combination of AirSpeeds and Avid editing systems 

that have been qualified on a PortServer Pro II or a LANshare EX 
while simultaneously capturing and editing. 

n

When recording DV 50 or MPEG 50 media, you are using twice the 
bandwidth of DV 25. Therefore half the amount of AirSpeeds can 
simultaneously record DV 50 or MPEG 50 than when recording DV 25.

n

Capturing for 24 hours does not mean one 24-hour master clip but 
multiple master clips totaling 24 hours with a maximum of 3 hours per 
clip.

The AirSpeed can run for 24 hours per day for 7 days a week (eight, 
3-hour capturing per day). 

The maximum capturing time is 3 hours. Avid editing systems cannot 
open a clip that exceeds 3 hours.
