[quote user="Larry Rubin"] Please consider that the content of this thread is evolving into a direction that is not in Avid's best interest. Thank you. [/quote] Well, I have to say, this is billed as an "General Discussion and Off-Topic" area of the boards, and if you think a little more laterally, a discussion about how 'poorly'

[quote user="sverkalo"] How they suppose to work with codecs from another company as DNxHD without paying a fee? [/quote] Example: I can download the Avid QT Codec Packs from Avid without having to purchase a single thing from Avid, and then within Quicktime I can access and create DNxHD material. I can do this with Premiere, Final Cut, MPEG

[quote user="sverkalo"] But even if you don't buy this you can work fine with DV, avi, QT etc. [/quote] Indeed. I have no problems with there being a range of additional 'paid-for' plugins etc... it's just the DNxHD that baffles me. If Lightworks can open any QT file, then Quicktime + Avid Codec Pack = Lightworks has DNxHD

Oh, and I tell you what else impresses me. In the IBC2010 video from earlier in the thread, you can see Lightworks working with Stereoscopic material. Nothing new for sure, but did anyone notice that it treats the VIDEO track as an actual stereo L/R track? I mean, Avid made a BIG deal out of finally catching up and offering Stereo AUDIO tracks earlier

I agree with the comments on system requirements. It seems much more 'user' friendly - in the sense that if you intend to make an open-source editing package, you'd probably want it to be as 'usable' on as broad a range of systems as possible. I still have slight concerns over the fact that any mention of DNxHD support seems to be

[quote user="Job ter Burg"] I've signed up at least twice. Never heard anything about it anymore. [/quote] I received an email from them with the same content as this page: LINK It says: " Avid DNxHD*, Apple ProRes*, RED*, AVC-Intra*, AVCHD*, XDCAM HD*, XDCAM EX* " * Options available through their store.

[quote user="Kenton.VanNatten"] What codec are the FCP files? [/quote] Based on the original post, I'd hazard a strong 'guess' that the mere mention of HDV3 means the material was captured with Final Cut as HDV footage and then wrapped in a Quicktime file. On OSX that would flag up as a Quicktime file with HDV content. I'd

That's a very good point Terry. 64-bit systems can offer a 32-bit option, and as such that will be the most compatible way of going about things. This link to Adobe Labs shows that there will likely be a native 64-bit version of Flash Player coming around the corner. Codename 'Square', it's already available for testing: Adobe Labs If

I'd check that your system has a full compliment of appropriate Adobe Flash support files. It's important because Avid use a Flash-based video player to stream the video material to you. These two packages will cover ALL web browser configurations: Firefox, Opera, IE 6,7,8 etc... Install both of them: Latest Flash (Non IE) Latest Flash (IE)

Well, I did some digging and found this. It may or may not be of value, but it's as close to what you're asking for as I can get. Video Sanctuary I have tried it out and it relies upon Windows Media Player for playback once decrypted, so you'd probably have to go with WMV (Windows Media) audio/video compression to be safe at the client's
