Yea sorry I got the DMG for Master Collection off that link.
Installing as I write on a backup Mac Pro.
The bugs Im referring too are the ones mentioned at RedUser. -
[Oliver Peters] “One pro area that Premiere Pro has made inroads into is the VFX community as a conduit application. We ignore that, because as editors, we think in terms of creative cutting. A lot of VFX guys use some PPro in their workflows (usually to/from AE), because of the ability to handle EDLs and DPX files. If you check out the motion picture press articles (like The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, Hugo, Act of Valor), Premiere Pro has been used as a conforming tool in conjunction with AE, even when the creative cut was done on FCP, Avid or Lightworks.
I also know a lot of promo editors who do most of their fancy work in After Effects. The NLE is almost inconsequential. Take a look at the types of new editors hired into broadcast creative services out of school. The number one criteria is invariably knowledge of motion graphics (specifically) AE, more so than the brand of NLE they know. For those folks, PPro is by far the best fit, precisely because of the AE integration.
“I agree with almost everything you are saying, though maybe not about Motion GFX being THE number one criteria for an editor. Certainly, it is potentially high up there, and I’ve gotten very good millage for having acceptable gfx and compositing skills. For any one-man-band, its very important, but for large “broadcast creative services–“where gfx are generally handled by a different department– I’d say the chief criteria is still A) the demonstrated ability to tell a compelling story in a minuscule amount of time, B) to be able to do so with extremely short turn-around, and C) to make alterations to that work under a great deal of pressure and in a very limited timeframe.
The other two elements that are, to my mind, equal with gfx skills are the ability to write and produce. Again, this is more for the small shop or one man band, since in “broadcast creative services” those positions are generally held by others, as well.

Just read through the Red forum. No bug reported. Some systems report problems but that are basicaly configuration problems.
This is not to say that their aren’t any bugs but none are reported on the red forum as of yet.
In fact the general word is great.

I agree.
Seems like it was mostly due to the lack of driver updates from capture card companies.
Considering the software is not released, it’s no surprise the capture card companies haven’t made drivers available to the public quite yet.
CS6 works differently than CS 5.5 in this regard as it appears there are no more capture card specific sequence settings.

That’s not exactly what I said – at least not as an absolute. This situation primarily applies to local broadcast affiliates and cable head ends around the country. They are looking for new (cheaper) blood and generally AE knowledge is more important than editing knowledge for the people who cut their local spots and local promos. A lot of these stations no longer have a dedicated graphics department (excluding news) unless they are running a website as a separate revenue center.

“That’s undoubtedly true. We are in agreement. I bet, though, they are looking for folks who can write good copy, too.
