Changed in v2.8.4
Avid Interplay Support
This release of the Windows version of the editing application has been qualified in an Avid
Interplay™ 1.2.4 environment. Macintosh editing applications are not supported in an Avid
Interplay environment.
Fixed in v2.8.4
The following have been fixed in this release:
➤ Previously, when you checked out a sequence or imported an AAF composition containing
an alpha or matte key that was created in an x.7.2 editor, you might have received an error
message. The Matte Key was offline or unusable. This has been fixed.
➤ Previously, if you were the owner of a private folder with inherited private rights set and you
tried to check-in material into that folder, a check-in error message displayed. However, the
material was checked in as expected. This has been fixed. The check-in error message no
longer appears.
➤ Previously, when you sent a sequence which contained a group clip from Pro Tools back to
Avid Interplay you would receive an “Export Selected Tracks to Sequence in Avid Interplay
failed” error message. This has been fixed.
➤ When loading a progressive master clip into an interlace project, you will be prompted to
perform a transcode. If you try to perform the transcode, you will receive a message
indicating the “Transcode cannot be completed because the source contains an unsupported
resolution.” This is as designed. The editing application does not support transcoding from
progressive to interlaced material.
➤ Previously, NRCS Tool refresh was not consistent. You would have to open and close the
queue in order to see saved stories. This has been fixed.
➤ Previously, you might have received an error when transcoding clips from OMF to MXF
with no change in resolution. This has been fixed.
➤ Previously, the source timecode might have shifted when performing an edit while capture.
This has been fixed.
➤ Previously, when performing a multi resolution ingest, parameters such as Tape name,
Duration, and Tracks, might have changed. This caused problems with transferring clips
between sites and archiving. This has been fixed.
Previously, if an Airspeed within your Avid Interplay environment was out of service, a
Send to Playback in Assist was extremely slow. This has been fixed.
➤ Previously, the Pan & Zoom effect used drive letters when accessing the image to be used for
the effect. This does not work in a collaborative environment because the drive is only valid
on the system that created the effect. UNC paths are now used.
➤ Previously, performing a sift on items in a bin was much slower on editing applications in an
Interplay environment than editing applications in a non workgroup environment. This has
been fixed.
➤ Previously, when logged in using a non-Administrator account, a capture or digital cut might
not have been frame accurate on the Symphony Nitris. This has been fixed.
➤ Previously, HD-SDI embedded audio output might have sounded distorted on some audio
devices. This has been fixed.
➤ Previously, while working with an Edit While Capture clip, locator text or modifications to
locators made in Assist may not have been available to the editing application. This has been
fixed.
➤ Previously, HD-SDI embedded audio was not being output to the Panasonic AJ-HD1700
successfully. This has been fixed.
➤ Previously, when you selected Render IN to OUT, not all the effects might have been
rendered. This has been fixed.
➤ Previously, when the editing application was indexing files, in a non Avid Interplay
environment, you would receive out of memory errors. This has been fixed
Changed in v2.8.3
Avid Interplay Support This release of the Windows version of the editing application has been qualified in an Avid Interplay™ 1.2.3 environment. Macintosh editing applications are not supported in an Avid
Interplay environment.
Fixed in v2.8.3
The following have been fixed in this release:
– Sound TC was counting at 24fps as opposed to 30fps in 1080p23 projects, causing the Sound TC information to drop out before the end of the clip. This has been fixed.
– Previously importing or capturing new clips in local bin into Avid Interplay did not update auto-reservation time.
– Previously, you might have received a “FatalAbortAssertion failed” error when loading master clips with Pan/Volume changes with Dynamic Relink enabled. This has been fixed.
– Effects that were nested inside a submaster effect might have appeared as black instead of letting the lower video layers show through. This has been fixed.
– Previously after opening, closing, or saving a bin, the system might hang. “Not responding” would appear in the title bar. This has been fixed.
– Previously, locators placed on a title track did not reappear after the original title media was deleted and then title media was recreated.
– Previously, if you used the Audio Mixer tool to change gain and or pan, and then checked the clip into Avid Interplay, when you checked the clip out on another editor, the changes to gain or pan were lost. This has been fixed.
– When checking in XDCAM proxy media into Avid Interplay, you might have received a C++ Runtime Error. This has been fixed.
– Previously, sequences with imported TIFF files might not have checked in and out of Interplay properly. You might have seen an “Unsupported pixel format” error. This has been fixed.
– Previously, you might have received the error message: "Sequence refers to non-existent tracks in clip" when you try to play a sequence that has been updated in Interplay by Pro Tools. This occurred when the original sequence’s timecode did not match the Pro Tools sequence timecode. This has been fixed.
– If you have problems with batch capture accuracy for footage captured over 1394 due to undetected small timecode breaks, enable the “Enable detection of small timecode break” option located in the Capture Settings DV& HDV tab.
– Previously, you might have been unable to transcode 720p 50 to 1080p 25. This has been fixed.
– Previously, you might have received a “Video Overrun” error when capturing 720p or 1080p with more than 2 AES/EBU audio tracks. This has been fixed.
– Previously, it might have taken a long time for the editing application to log on to Interplay if a full text search on the Interplay database was running at the same time. This has been fixed.
– Previously, if you transferred a sequence with a long name to AirSpace, the sequence would fail to transfer with a “requested function is not implemented” message. A more accurate message of “Sequence name exceeds 63 characters” now appears.
Fixed in v2.8.1
The following have been fixed in this release:
• A permission problem that might have occurred depending on how you set up your Avid Interplay user database has been fixed. For more information, see the Avid Interplay Readme. This change only affects editors in an Avid Interplay environment.
• The x.8.1 release did not include a Macintosh version of the editing application. The only fix included with this release applied to the Windows version of the application.
Changed in v2.8
Avid Interplay Support
The Windows version of the editing application has been qualified in an Avid Interplay™ 1.2 environment. Macintosh editing applications are not supported in an Avid Interplay environment.
Mac OS 10.4.11 Support
Avid has qualified the Macintosh OS v10.4.11 with the editing applications.
VC-1 Resolution
This release of the editing application includes support for editing and playback of MXF media encoded using the VC-1 resolution and codec. VC-1 was initially developed by Microsoft® and has been standardized as SMPTE 421-M. Avid Interplay v1.2 does not support VC-1 media.
(Windows) To use the VC-1 resolutions, you must have Windows Media Player 11 installed on your system.
The VC-1 options appear in the Media Creation settings for Render and Mixdown & Transcode. These options also appear in the AAF Export settings when setting the “Transcode Video To” option.
With this release of the editing application, depending on the Project type and edit rate, you can fast copy import, playback, transcode, and render VC-1 resolutions. You must first export your sequence as a Windows Media File in order to perform a fast copy import into the editing application.
Fixed in v2.8
The following have been fixed in this release:
– Previously, voice-over recordings with the Audio Punch-In tool might have resulted in missing voice-over. This has been fixed.
– Previously, in Interplay Access, not all clips in a sequence were displayed in the sequence relatives. This has been fixed.
– When importing XDCAM, the FTPClipList ignored the Audio Track settings and always imported ALL available tracks. This has now been fixed.
– Previously, you might have received an “omfiHPDomain_INIT-FAILED” error when transcoding XDCAM PAL MPEG 30 to MPEG 2. This has been fixed.
– Previously, when performing a transcode, if the media files written to a folder exceeded 10,000, a new folder was not created. This has been fixed. Now when the media file count exceeds 10,000 a new folder is created.
– Previously, when you swapped a P2 card that did not contain spanned clips with another P2 card that did not have spanned clips, you received an exception error. This has been fixed.
– Previously, you could change the Export to ProEncode settings during an export to ProEncode. This has been fixed. You cannot change the export settings during the export process.
– Previously, if you entered an invalid iNEWS server hostname when logging into Instinct, the application would hang. This has been fixed.
– You might have received an “internal client” error message when trying to configure storage in the Interplay Administrator Tool. This has been fixed.
– The Center Duration value was not displaying correct film footage values for various film types. This has been fixed.
– Previously, the MM Access API garbled some international characters when setting attributes on clips or sequences. This has been fixed.
– Previously, Script Based editing was not supported with Shared Avid Projects. This has been fixed.
– You might not have been able to create multiple Media Creation Settings in the same project.
This has been fixed.
– Attempting to use previous user settings might have resulted in “User Setting Not Found” errors. This has been fixed.
– (Macintosh) Bins containing clips with long file names might not have opened. This has been fixed.
– Imported P2 clips might have appeared offline in an Interplay environment. This has been
fixed
