Is that not live or now live?  

You've been working too hard Michael - thanks for this

Brian

 LOL - I will go back and correct that. Life would be easier if we could announce all the stuff we didn't do!

Michael that page is really great. It would be nice to have one central page for other formats as well. Nice going.

Hey, have any of you guys (Beside Michael....since you posted to the site) seen this utility?

CineXML

According to what I've read on the site:

The cineXML advantage
Any multi-layer sequence with speed ramps, effects or dissolves is supported. Just render the used media, import and relink. It's that simple.

cineXML for Avid online.
Translate from Avid XML to Redcine XML. 
Render high resolution Quicktimes in Redcine of just the used footage (with optional handles).
A corresponding ALE is generated from cineXML for easy batch import. Relink after the batch import and you're done.

cineXML for DPX finish.
Translate from Avid XML to Redcine XML. 
Render DPX sequences for professional 2K or 4K finishing.

Looks very promising. I was wondering if anyone (Including Mr. Phillips) has tried it out and can let us know what you think?

Hi Michael,

Compliments on that page. Great step.

A beta for OSX Leopard is available right now: Download

The Windows version (Vista) is coming out this week. I will keep you guys posted when it's available for download.

If you have any questions, just ask in this forum or in the 4k workflow forum over at Reduser.net

 Any official news?

Even though I liked the idea to cc in raw per shot prior to offline in the previous workflow, the option of a "render farm" for dailies is beyond expectation.

Thank you Michael.

P.S. See you on 3rd at Reduser.
