    Posted by Fredrik Harreschou on October 30, 2009 at 1:29 pm

    I am making the jump to Win 7 64 bit, mainly because we are running Assmilate SCRATCH which will be 64 bit only with V5. I would like to use our Multibridge Eclipse and Media Express 2 to capture DPX files from HDCAM SR…

    Any news on this?

    Hi Fredrik,

    All current drivers on our website are Windows 7 compatible.

    Please see this technote:

    Kristian,

    thank you, good to know.

    From the Readme:
    Minimum system requirements for 64-bit editions of Windows

    • Microsoft Windows XP Professional x64 SP2 or Windows Vista x64 SP1.

    I have another question, will you at some point implement EDL support in Media Express? And where can I find documentation on the XML used?

    Best regards,
    Fredrik

    Hi Fredrick,

    The release on the web was uploaded before Windows 7 was released, hence the readme notes did not include that. I’ll update it when I get into the office.

    The XML is Final Cut Pro compatible and is largely based on the Apple’s XML format for ProApps except for additional bits of metadata we use solely for Media Express. You can open the XML file in Final Cut Pro which means you can log clips using Media Express and then bring the file into Final Cut Pro.

    We will include EDL support in a future update.

    regards
