Thanks. Is desktop sharing different/independent of iChat? Nick.

It would work when being feed from my SD Sony camera over firewire but it would not see the firewire output from an avid. I was hoping it was just a matter of the firewire pin outs but it seemed to be more of a protocol issue. I never really found out the definitive answer but I know I could take the firewire output of my avid into my fw camera and it saw the video there but would not with on location. Does iChat not invoke the kind of protocol issue that I had with "On Location"?

And ideally directly from the editor's Avid. So he sees what the editor sees. And the editor avoids making lottsa individual exports she has to upload to FTP/video hosting service for review purposes.
