A compatibility issue was fixed in this release. No user functionality was affected. This editing application has been qualified in an Avid Interplay™ 1.1.5 environment.

Changed in v2.7.4
The following additions or changes have been incorporated into this release of the editing application.
Avid Interplay Support
Avid has qualified the editing applications in an Avid Interplay™ 1.1.4 environment.
QuickTime Support
Avid has qualified QuickTime® 7.2 with the editing applications.
Mac OS 10.4.10 Support
Avid has qualified the Macintosh OS v10.4.10 with the editing applications.

Fixed in v2.7.4
The following have been fixed: Audio
* Consolidating audio-only sequences might not have generated any new media, and consolidating any sequence might have skipped all audio. This has been fixed.
* If you had two MXF audio clips adjacent in the Timeline and you exported the sequence as a QuickTime reference file, the first MXF audio file might have been silent when you played the sequence in QuickTime. This has been fixed.
* Previously, audio may have been out of phase on playback and digital cut. This has been fixed.
* HD ancillary timecode was causing HD embedded audio to disappear during playback. This has been fixed.

If you were using desktop play delay with monitored audio or audio-only clips or sequences, the blue position bar might have jumped forward at the start of play. This has been fixed by having the system ignore the play delay for monitored audio or audio-only clips or sequences.
* Audio Project settings changes might not have carried over to a new editing session. For this release, you can decide if you want to be able to save all audio-related settings as Site
settings. Audio-related settings include Audio Settings, Audio Project settings, and Passthrough Mix Tool settings. To save audio-related settings as Site settings:
1. Press A+S as you start your editing application.
A message box opens asking if you want to be able to save audio-related settings as Site settings.
2. Click Yes.
3. Save the audio-related settings as Site settings. For more information about saving Site settings, see the Help for your application.
The ability to save persists for subsequent editing sessions. To remove this ability, press A+S when you start the application and then click No.
Bins
* You might have seen an error message when you tried to open the Bin Fast menu. This has been fixed.
* You might have seen errors when you attempted to open bins containing master clips or sequences with alpha clips. This has been fixed.
Capture
* Capturing any footage in using the 10:1m resolution on a G5 PPC might have resulted in random white flash frames. This has been fixed.
* Advanced pulldown JFIF compressed resolution media captured through Firewire in SD progressive projects might have been shifted down. This has been fixed.
* You might have experienced a system error when you tried to enter key numbers for 1080p24 clips in a 24p NTSC project. This has been fixed.
* You might have received a BuildComposition error when trying to perform a Varicam capture. This has been fixed.

Rappel Nouveautés dans la version 2.7.x (voir aussi la release)

The following additions have been made to this release:

• Disconnected Client Mode. See “Disconnecting an Avid Editing Application from the Interplay Environment” on page 50.
• Added the following procedure to the Documentation. See “Adding Locators On-the-Fly while Playing” on page 54.
• Added the following note to the documentation in the “Selecting Output and Timecode Formats for 23.976p, 24p, and 25p Projects.”
Depending on the type of project you are working with, NTSC or PAL, the system will only display output options for one format. You cannot switch from NTSC to PAL or PAL to NTSC. You can only switch from one PAL format to another PAL format or from one NTSC format to another NTSC format.
• The following note has been added to the documentation: If you mount your P2 cards as virtual drives on your Avid editing application, import clips from them, and then exit the editing application, you won't see the P2 drives the next time you open the editing application. You need to reimport the clips. For more information about mounting P2 drives, see “Mounting P2 Cards as Drives” in the Help for your editing application.
• NVIDIA® Driver Update to v91.85. See “Checking the NVIDIA Display Driver Version” on page 17.
• Avid Unity™ MediaNetwork v5.0 compatibility. See “Shared Storage Support” on page 15.
• Macintosh® OS 10.4.9 Support. Avid has qualified the Macintosh OS v10.4.9 with the editing applications.

Fixed in 2.7.7

• (Mac Only) Unmounting a drive may have resulted in an “Exception: Need to implement QualityManager on MAC” error message. This has been fixed.
• (Mac Only) You may have received an error when selecting the default file name in the General Settings dialog box. This has been fixed.
• Previously, MPEG2 transcoded resolutions may not have played back successfully. This has been fixed.
• A Firmware update for the Panasonic AG-HVX200 causes clips written to the P2 cards via “Export to Device->P2” to not be properly recognized by the P2 camera. The 4.05-00-0.00 firmware update for the Panasonic AG-HVX200/HVX202, which was released to support 16GB P2 cards, introduces a regression in the “Export to Device->P2” capability. Clips exported to P2 cards from the editing application will not be correctly recognized by the P2 camera with that firmware. A red X appears on the camera’s display in place of a thumbnail. Do not load the 4.05-00-0.00 firmware update if you use “Export to Device->P2.”
• If you made your Media Creation settings a site setting, opened a new project, and then closed it, you might have experienced Access Violation errors followed by a
“DOMAIN_COPYIN_FAILED” message. This has been fixed.
• If you attempted a digital cut of HD material that originated in SD or the reverse, you might have been prompted to transcode even though it was not necessary. This has been fixed.
• You might not have been able to use the DV 25 QuickTime® codec to export a 720×480-sized composition from Adobe® After Effects®. This has been fixed.
• At the end of a transcoded clip, you might have seen a corrupt frame. This has been fixed.
• You might have been forced to quit the editing application if you tried to unmount a workspace while on the timeline. This has been fixed.
• A “MainThreadBus” error might have occurred when lifting a clip from a complex sequence after adjusting Automation Gain. This has been fixed.
• An Assertion error might have occurred when exporting a master clip with audio as OMF_1. This has been fixed.
• If you saved a bin while a Locator comment field was active, a “MainThread Bus” or “Runtime” error might have occurred. This has been fixed.
• Stepping into HD progressive titles or Matte Keys might have caused Assertion failures. This has been fixed.
• Group clips did not ScriptSync™ if a clip had black at the head. This has been fixed.
• An ”Exception: MSM: No OFFLINE Media found” error might have occurred when attempting to link to XDCAM™ media. This has been fixed.
• (Mac Pro) Saved Marquee® .mqp titles would lose edge properties on objects or text when reopened in Marquee. This has been fixed.
• Previously, if a P2 drive was connected after launching the editor, the P2 drives did not appear when selecting Import P2 > Clip to Bin > Browse For Folder. This has been fixed. LTC output was not adjusting properly for Audio Punchin preroll. This has been fixed.
• (FilmScribe) TabbedLists or WebLists were not initially generated if you chose an audio channel. This has been fixed.
• Previously, playback of multi-layered, high definition, progressive sequences sometimes resulted in an "Exception" error, which has been fixed.
• Output as RGB did not appear properly in Adobe After Effects. This has been fixed.
• Previously, if you deleted some of the media for a clip (either video or audio) and then later tried to come back to delete the remaining media, you only had the choice to delete the master clip. This has been fixed.
• If you tried to send media from a local drive (such as your C drive) to playback, you might have seen a fatal error message. This has been fixed.
• You might have seen a white video line with Plasma Wipe effects in HD interlaced projects because the effects were being created in SD and then resized. This has been fixed.
• Effects templates saved in bins might not have seemed to have a logical sort method when they displayed in the Effects Palette. Effect templates in bins now display as alphabetically sorted in the Effect Palette and in the Quick Transitions menu.
• If you played (in Full Quality mode) progressive HD media after an SD clip in an SD project, you might have seen a green bar and strobing in the image. This has been fixed.
• Previously, you might have received Exception errors when arming the video track in the Capture tool while attempting to capture in a 16mm PAL 24p Film Rate project. This has been fixed.
• (Macintosh only) Installing certain AVX plug-ins on your system might have caused the Avid Marquee title tool to crash on startup. Avid continues to work on finding a fix for this issue. In the meantime, use the following workaround that allows you to open the Marquee title tool. This workaround turns off the scripting functionality inside Marquee.
1. Close the Avid editing application.
2. Create a text file and name it NoScripting.txt. (It does not matter what is in the text file.)
3. Ctrl + click the Avid editing application icon to access the context menu.
4. Select Show Package Contents.
5. Double-click the Contents folder
6. Double-click the PlugIns folder
7. Place the text file that you created in step 1 in the Plugins folder.

Now Marquee should launch from the editor, but you will not have the scripting functionality.
• The editing application might not have rendered AudioSuite™ effects to a workspace. This has been fixed.
• You might have seen a “Runtime” error when lifting a clip containing an Advanced Keyframe effect while the Effect Editor was open. This has been fixed.
• You might have seen an “Assertion” error when performing an XDCAM SD high-resolution batch import. This has been fixed.
• Previously, you might not have been able to capture audio in a 16mm PAL 24P video project. This has been fixed.
• (Macintosh PowerPC®) XDCAM HD long clips did not import into HD projects. This has been fixed.
• Importing XDCAM is available on the Windows® and Macintosh platforms. Please disregard any mention in our documentation that states importing XDCAM media is
available on (Windows only). The documentation text will be updated in a future release.
• If you tried to do an audio mixdown of a single audio track, you might have seen an Access Violation error and the system might have frozen. This has been fixed.
• With some of the previous NVIDIA drivers, if you created a Marquee title and tried to save it, you might have seen a “Serious Error” message. This has been fixed with the latest NVIDIA drivers, which you must install manually. See “Checking the NVIDIA Display Driver Version” on page 17.
• If you used uncompressed SD material in an HD project, you might have seen corruption on line 21. This has been fixed.
• With an Avid Mojo® attached, connecting a blackburst after you have opened a PAL project could cause jittery playback. Workaround: Connect the PAL blackburst before you open the project, reopen the project with the blackburst attached, or change the resolution (Draft to Full quality or the reverse).
• The Video Input tool and Video Output tool are now available from the Tools Menu.
• You can now mount a new tape in an Ikegami® NLTEK drive and have the Media Indexer recognize it, and the Manual Storage Scan command in the Avid editing application now points to the correct folder on the drive.
• Occasionally, access violations occurred when trying to Post to Web. This has been fixed. (Interplay) Choosing Undo (Ctrl + Z) after performing an “Update Bin from Interplay” operation caused the application to crash. This has been fixed.
• (Interplay™) Previously, transcoded media did not show up online unless you restarted the editing application. This has been fixed.
• (Interplay) Previously, imported M2T files did not check into the Unchecked In Avid Assets folder. This has been fixed.
• (Interplay) If you selected Bin > Update Bin from Interplay and then closed the dialog box by clicking the close button (the red X) without selecting any options, the bin might have updated anyway and any changes you made were lost. This has been fixed.
• (Interplay) In the Service Configuration window of the Avid Interplay Administrator, you can now log in without a password if a password was not set.
• (Interplay) Previously, you might not have been able to delete media in a bin when working with 720p 23.976 35mm media. This has been fixed.
• (Interplay) When you captured a master clip at 24 NTSC or 23.976 NTSC and checked in the clip and then checked the clip out onto another system, the clip would be 30 fps and would not load into the source monitor. This has been fixed.
