Digital HD Video Assist on Mac
As a Director Vlado Struhar was tired of the lack of quality HD Video Assist solutions available, so he developed his own.
For years now I have been telling our local video assist vendors to upgrade their aging gear to HD. Yet, they still use their circa 1980 software, DVD recorders…and down converters, even today.
I finally got tired of waiting, and about the same time I met Vlado Struhar (www.vladostruhar.com) on-line. Vlado is a commercial Director in Slovakia. While Slovakia is not known as a hotbed for programmers, what Vlado showed me was simply amazing. As a Director he too was tired of the lack of quality HD Video Assist solutions available, so he developed his own. He asked me to take it for a spin, and I was blown away.
