The production is sending me the Mini Recorder and I also have an Intensity Shuttle here I can test with if I can only find a camera that sends 1080p25 via HDMI. Has anyone used the Blackmagic box to record straight into capture tool? A wild-record is fine, I don't need timecode as its just a temp edit, we won't be trying to re-link to the rushes or anything. Problem is it's a tricky, fx-laden edit and I'm not going to be able to learn Final Cut in time to do 18-plus nested animattes etc! The production has previously used the UltraStudio Mini Recorder into Blackmagic Media Express and recorded ProRes, which can be cut more or less instantaneously in FCP.

I have a fast-approaching shoot where I need to live-record an SDI feed out of video village and cut temp rushes so the director can see immediately if his fx shots are working etc.
