Hi Wayne,

You might have to upgrade to BCC 4 as I’m not sure that BCC 3 is supported by FCP 5.1.2. Generally speaking, we do not provide patches for obsolete software, which is the case with BCC 3. As soon as a new version of one of our products is released, the old version is rendered obsolete and is no longer updated.

To check and see if this is indeed the case with your system, I would recommend that you install the BCC 4 trial version and see if that works for you. Please feel free to contact our support staff at support@borisfx.com if you need any help with the installation or if the BCC 4 filters do not work.

Cheers,

Peter.

Peter,

Thanks for getting back to me —

Hi,

I’m not doing well here.

I’m running FCP 5.1.2 PPC – OSX 10.4.8.

I was running BCC 3.0 on FCP 4.5 – and of course when I cross-graded to 5.1.2 my BCC filters died.

So I download the BCC 4.1 Try&Buy upgrade and installed it.
Followed the Caps on/off instructions, to no avail.

I then downloaded the 4.0.1 for FCP5.1 CD updater patch.
Followed instructions.

Now this is what I have:
Black screen on all BCC3 filters
My BCC 4 filters show up, but WITHOUT adjustable paramaters.

Please help me – on a deadline that I can’t finish without my BCC 3 plugs.

Thanks,

Wayne
