No….I’ve used several times.
Unless this is express pro or somethting. I know nothing of them. But on THE Meridain and Adrenaline I have had no issues.

YES, IT IS XPRESS PRO. DOES ANYONE ELSE HAVE ANY ANSWERS OR EXPERIENCES?
THANKS. -
I used them briefly on somone else’s xpress pro (4.5) and had no problems.

BCC and Sapphire work flawlessly with each other. Not only can you have both installed on the same system, be it Xpress DV all the way to Symphony, you can use the effects at the same time on the same clip without trouble (ie: BCC_Glow and S_Jitter).
The only caveat is to make sure that your system supports the form of AVX you’re using in the plugin. In other words, if you’re using XDV 3.5.4, don’t try and use the newest AVX2 version of BCC 4, use the older AVX 1.0 edition (like an older release of BCC, such as 1.0 or 2.0), or AVX 1.5 version, if supported. Another one: Don’t try and use the AVX 1.0 release of Sapphire on XPro HD 5.x, since it’s my understanding that XPro HD 5 no longer supports the AVX 1.0 format. Make sense?
Both are great investments that you will use daily…just be careful not to overuse them, since it’s easy to do.

AVX 1.0 format.Actually XPro HD 5.x still supports AVX1.0 just fine, and Sapphire Plug-ins work well on it. You might be remembering that a new version of plug-ins is required on Tiger; that’s true, but it’s not an AVX1/AVX2 issue. Just make sure you have Sapphire 1.35 or later on Mac.
