Anyone Install Pro Video Formats 2.0? Also 10.9.4 or 10.9.5?

[Jim Wiseman] “I have a new MacPro 2013 Hexacore running 10.9.2 with Media 100 Suite 2.1.5. Has anyone tried loading Pro Video Formats 2.0? If so, any problems?

Also OSX 10.9.4 or 10.9.5? Any problems with those? What version of Quicktime are you running?”

We are running with Pro Video Formats 2.0 and 10.9.5 without issues. QuickTime is part of Mac OS X these days, as far as I know you cannot update it anymore separately from the OS.

But since you have a USB3-capable Mac, I think the wisest thing would be to have an external USB3 drive with a clone of your boot “drive” (e.g. via Carbon Copy Cloner, SuperDuper, DiskUtility or something similar) before you install these updates. This way you can get back into a working condition easily in case something goes wrong.

Running 10.9.5 also on a 2008 MacPro – updated the Pro codecs, no problem. Running Quicktime Pro 7.6.6 and Media 100 2.1.5 Always good to have a backup, as Floh says!

Thanks to you both, Floh and Robert. Yes, I regularly clone my boot drives. Would have to imagine these updates would also go for my 2012 MacPro tower. Will move ahead!
