Hi

I am reseaching a bit on what SDI card to get for a new AE workstation, and don't get any positive answers from Blackmagic on what support the Decklink Extreme 3D has in After Effects and thought maybe some here on the list uses this card and could give some more detailed feedback.

Can this card play back rampreview from AE in realtime in 16 and 32bit projects to a SDI monitor? My current outdated legacy AJA card (KONA/XENA LH) cant playback 1080/25p 16bit projects in realtime and 32bit projects is just a bunch of scrambled mess on the SDI output. AJA gives some very vague feedback that this card is not supported anymore and the new cards are "updated", but nothing about the new cards being able to handle 16/32bit projects.

We are also about to change all our old trusty SD CRT Barco reference monitors to something more current (about time!) and i have suggested we should go with Flanders Sci. LM2461W. Is this also in here seen as the best vs. value monitor? 

We have had a Sony OLED monitor for review, and it is absolutely fantastic, but a bit pricy if you want the same options as the Flanders.

Does anyone have the TVlogic XVM series?

hope this is not too Off Topic for the list?
