Im honestly unsure if Im going to keep the MXO2-Mini. *) Need a really hefty video card to handle multiple effects at HD resolutions. *) Express Card 34 on Apple machines can be a bit touchy. Hopefully this can be addressed with software & driver updates. *) Really lightweight, portable and small. *) Works for editorial/post production workflows as expected *) Lets you also grab HD via component, and older analog S-Video and composite sources. *) MOTHERFUCKING UNCOMPRESSED HD MIXING FROM LAPTOP TO LAPTOP. The MXO2-Mini retails for around $450 US.
This video also features me nerd-ing out and cursing, and generally making an embarrassment out of myself. The MXO2-Mini should work similarly on the PC/Windows side of the equation so applications like VVVV and friends should see it however I was not able to test this as I don't have a Windows XP Bootcamp partition set up. This video shows you how to set up the MXO2-Mini, some of the issues it has with being a bit testy, issues with the Express Card adaptor slot on the Mac Book pro, and setting up Avenue, Modul8 and VDMX for HD mixing. Using a laptop that has an Express Card 34 adaptor slot we can finally mix in HD with real HD sources, using whatever Quicktime compatible software we want. The Matrox MXO2-Mini is a fairly cheap HD video digitizer meant for post production/editing usage, but the fact that it supports HDMI 1.3 means it should be able to handle RGB DVI input as long as its a valid 'real' video standard frame-rate and resolution. The files are supplied so you can at least try.Learn out how to get Uncompressed HD out of one laptop, into another as a video source, through your VJ software of choice. Matrox do not support this set up so if it does not work for you there is nothing you can do it about it. I am using my MX02 Mini in Premiere Pro CC2019 with these files and so far have not had problems. Then all the Matrox options will appear in Premiere and Adobe Media Encoder. You have to install the version 8 drivers first and then download the files from this link: FTP linkĪnd manually put them in the right folders.
However, they have provided a link to the files you need to add into Premiere to make the MX02 work with it.
If you download the last drivers they made for the MX02 it will not install anything into the latest version of CC, so the MX02 will not appear in Premiere and there is no easy way to make it do so with just the drivers. Matrox stopped supporting their MX02 range with CC2015.
