I know this is a really old thread but I was having the same issue - couldn't type numerical values into the sliders and using the sliders was driving me crazy until I figured out the fix - Firstly right click (or alt/option click) anywhere on the effect controls (in the Effect Editor) and select...

I read somewhere that the 2019 Windows version of Avid comes with ProRes codecs already installed. Is that true of the 2018 version too? If not, is it possible to get ProRes codecs installed for the 2018 version? My clients require ProRes codecs, and I'd prefer not going to the 2019 version as I... (read more)

Hi, I was wondering if there is a way to create a subclip and check that into Interplay without interplay taking both the subclip and the parent clip? I don't want to check in a huge clip if I am just using a small portion of it due to limited interplay space. Kind regards (read more)

Good morning. My previous system had about 15 different partiitions (came over from W7 with 2TB limit) and of course each drive had it's own AVIDMEDIA FILES folder. Some of these folders also had sub-folders 1, 2, 3, eect. (some only have 1). I have done away with the numerous drives and I am consolidating... (read more)
