Product & Release         Date Available End of Development End of Support

MediaCentral v2024.10 11/14/2024 11/30/2026         11/30/2026

Avid, did you really release a streamio version that is NOT compatible/supported with your own under support mediacentral LTM program? Are you really telling your loyal customers that they HAVE TO upgrade their under support mediacentral cloud UX 2023.7 to be able to use streamio 2024.10? What does the term LONG (= 2 years) mean if in November of 2024 you stop backwards testing against your products released 1 year and 8 months ago?

Very, very VERY DISAPPOINTING!
