Suite 1.0.2 missing Boris Red

[Floh Peters]

And to clear up the mystery why I still had RED under Suite 1.0.2: The version of RED shipping with 1.0.2 was broken. But since when we upgraded our systems from Media 100 V13 to Suite V1, I did not do an uninstall and reinstall, but I installed the software over the older version (I know I should not do it, but…). Somewhere along some earlier versions of Media 100, Boris RED was renamed to “Composite Suite” inside Media 100. This got changed back to Boris RED at some point. Since I did not uninstall the old Composite Suite plugin remained on our systems.
Now usually Boris RED gets loaded as a plugin for tansitions, titles, effects,… but since Boris RED did not work and Composite suite still was installed, Media 100 loaded the older Composite Suite filter, still giving me transitions in Suite V1.0.2 (but also crashes on newer MacPro systems).
The RED updater fixes this situation and should also remove older Composite Suite filters. So if you are using V1.0.2 you definitely should run the RED updater.

I would like to point out one thing about this patch. Many of the Boris preset transitions no longer work. Many, such as the Cylinder transitions, they do not transition to the next clip. Too bad, these were some very nice transitions. I hope the engineers work on fixing this.
This is just one of the bugs I have found on the new 1.0.2 system with my brand new Mac Pro, there are others I will discuss after I have narrowed done exactly when they occur. I do appreciate the new IO error box, that comes up regularly, which gives me a chance to save my work.

Its kind of a drag that more attention was not taken to look for these problems before the release.
