Aurora Video Systems showcased its new Pipe family of video capture and editing cards using its own custom designed PCI Controller, which it says was designed with HD in mind and also for future upgradeability via a simple Flash update. The QuickTime-comaptible Pipe cards leverage Final Cut Pro's RTExtreme and each feature Extended Mac Desktop on all of the video outputs, offering previews of any content--especially useful in those applications that do not support a QuickTime Video Output Component such as Combustion and Photoshop. The line features Pipe ($500), PipeSDI ($500), PipePRO ($800), and PipeHD ($1500) cards.
