I cannot speak for the transport but the Artist is working fine here in 2021.3. It's worth bearing in mind though that the Transport is no longer supported, which means it works but will receive no further Eucon driver updates. The Artist is supported till 2024.

[quote user="Philip Kapadia"]What does anyone need a physical audio mixer for when editing? [/quote] Because guide comm recorded by the producer is a constant need in factual entertainment. That and the way some of them have their audio monitoring wired. You need to mute the speakers while you record the guide comm and few of the BMD devices

[quote user="Philip Kapadia"]I'm sure the online stations are usually high spec, and kept up-to-date lol[/quote] You'd be surprised. Whilst most dedicated top end facilities in the UK such as The Farm and Molinare will have the latest and greatest equipment in well designed rooms, a lot of 'facilities' are single production

There is no need to transcode to DNxHD LB, unless you need to work in conjunction with other editors at a facility and they have chosen that rez. You can use the Canon proxies and link to those directly. Similarly you simply change the project resolution whilst offlining to HD, or the output to the Ultrastudio/HD monitor. Relinking then becomes a simple

The documentation is missing the specific bit about the need to update the Nvidia driver to 461.72 . On my system with 457.x gpu fx were disabled upon initial launch until I updated, which is a first for me and 2021.2 ran fine on the older driver. I had to consult the Matrix documentation to find this out. It is also a first for Avid to be so up to

[quote user="cocarroll"]At the moment I am leaning towards a Quadro RTX4000 and an Intel Core i9-10980XE (18 cores) based on the benchmark comparison with a bronze Xeon.[/quote] I think that's a very good choice currently. Powerful gpu cards maybe difficult to gauge within Avid but they do come in very handy even essential for things like

[quote user="hartfilms"] Now this could be due to one or more other factors. My media lives in an external Glyph StudioRAID which is RAID 0 (I back up each RAID volume to one external drive) but the USB 3.0 cable might be the problem. Since I am working to deadlines, I am hoping to learn ways to make my setup work for now. [/quote] Joyce,

[quote user="Pat Horridge"]Granted Resolve leaves Avid standing in terms of playback performance across a range of codecs but Resolve can't do lots of what my clients need so its a mute point. [/quote] As a heavy user of Resolve too I can almost say categorically this isn't the case. MC will play most all things realtime, with reasonable

Then change your project format to 1080p25 and try again. If that doesn't work do a video mixdown in the same format first.

Do you mean if the project is set to 1080p25 as opposed to 1080i50? I thought this was normal. You cannot create motion FX either on 50i sources in a 25p project. I always change the format temporarily for such clips, give that a try and re-export.
