    I’m Working with G4s and M100i 8.2.3
    I Have Boris FX Red2.5 and Continuum 3
    And Grafitti 2.1

    Boris is very Buggy, it crashes all the time and if I move one project to a different drive it loses track of the files. I’m alway having to relocate them.

    Thanks for your help Floh!

    I serously doubt that RED 2.5 was ever tested in m100 8.2.3 or on OS 10.4 with QT 7.x which I assume your using if you’re running m100 8.2.3.

    Looks like you have some seriously mis-match versions of software here.

    with 8.2.3 you should be at graffiti 4 and RED 3 (though RED 4 works, I don’t know about Graffiti 5).

    Time for some Boris upgrades at least… But at the same time, you should give some thought into moving to some newer version of M100 as well – sooooo much faster and more flexible, but that’s just my $.02…

    I would love to upgrade. But unfortunately my mortgage just doubled!
    I wonder if there’s a cheap Boris upgrades?

    Thanks,

    The boris upgrade isn’t that bad… check out their webstore:

    https://artel-software.stores.yahoo.net/borisred.html

    Looks like the RED upgrade is $295 USD (You will NOT also need graffiti).

    you can also download a trial version from Boris first to make sure it works in your config before you buy:

    I’d actually love to get my hands on a copy of Red 2.5, as I’m in OS9 still with M100 7.5 and I’ve heard that Red 2.5 works in OS9 as well.
    Having said that, I’ve managed to pull off the tricks I want so far by using Boris FX and Graffeti together. Just means twice the rendering. =P
