  RE: Buzzing audio for imported AVI files
  @Jim-Raines From the MediaInfo data various things strike me. First, that audio seems to have two streams; this is known to give MEP problems. Second, and perhaps more pertinent here, the audio sampling rate is 32kHz (MEP will almost certainly be

  RE: Firewire IEEE 1394 to USB 2 or 3
  @keruxjeff Does your laptop include a Thunderbolt port? Presumably so if you are considering that device. In which case it should work, I think. My only reservation is about the included firewire card. From my experience and for reliability I would
