It’s totally useless then. An absolutely worthless and useless feature.
When I read about it, I was jumping out of happiness (with the credit card on my hand), I believed it was
like the useful, wonderful implementation in Avid, in which you can apply (and stack) ANY effect over several clips.Eighteen months to upgrade and you couldn’t do better than this?
Shame on you Adobe, You fooled me!
Lucky me I decided to wait and try the demo first.
BTW, not impressed so far. In fact, some undesired changes.

“This doesn’t happen any longer. Pressing Home takes you to the beginning of the sequence and End takes you to the end of the sequence.”
.- For me , that’s bad news, I totally liked it the way it was.
It was very handy with motion effects, for example, animating the size of a clip from beggining to end.

Is there a way to export from Adrenaline on a PC to the Microsoft DV AVI codec. AVI is an option but the Microsoft DV codec is not available.
.- There is no Avid AVI, Video for windows or Windows Media codecs of any kind. Simply, they don’t exist.
All Avid codecs are QuickTime.

Be my guest – you seem to have the time..- I don’t need to do this testing, I’ve known this for a long time.
BTW, I get paid for doing tests, troubleshooting, Repairs, Etc, so normally I have the time to get to know such things.

[Carl] “I’m asking you to try it by yourself.”
Be my guest – you seem to have the time..- Well, in the 10+ years I’ve used, installed and serviced Avid systems , both Mac and PC (For a living) I had the time to test a Lot.
Anyway, a QuickTime uninstall doesn’t take much time.
[Carl] “If the guy tells you he can fly, Will you also accept it without any doubts?”
I know who Wes Plate is – I don’t know who the heck you are.”.- Well, I don’t know who the heck is Wes Plate, have no idea.
And , with all due respect. I don’t care (nothing against him, I don’t even know him, simply I don’t care)
I do not take anybody’s word as the absolute truth, not even mine.
I believe in FACTS.
That’s a very healthy habit.
The fact is that you can’t run Avid without QuickTime and anybody can try this.
These are a FACTS:

I however, don’t have the time to prove or disprove something I knew, and which has been reaffirmed by someone who knows far more than you or I
.- How do you know that?
Do you know me?

double checked with our experienced Post Manager, who confirmed that to his knowledge, Avid is NOT QT based, but does use QT on the Mac for display purposes.
.- Well, apparently, and with all due respect, the guy does not have a clue about Avids.
Here are the AVID codecs (FOR PC):

As you can see, they are all pure breed Quickime codecs.
No video for windows codecs at all. Nowhere.

From the Avid site
https://www.avid.com/onlineSupport/browse.asp?productID=0&topicID=404&browse=
Here You can download the Avid Codecs for PC.
Wait! The Avid codecs are QuickTime based codecs, even for Windows! There is no “Video for windows”, DirectX or Windows Media codecs!
Strange, isn’t it?

Believe YOUR EYES.
C’mon, Try to run Avid without QuickTime
If he’s rigth, You have nothing to loose, you’ll be able to use your Avid normally and you can reinstall QuickTime later if you need it.
And I’ll be wrong.
From the Avid site
https://www.avid.com/products/xpressprohd/specs.asp#pc
“Minimum PC System Specifications for Avid Xpress Pro
Windows XP Professional with Service Pack 2
QuickTime 7.0.3

Again, from the Avid site:

In the LIQUID EDITION (Formerly Pinnacle) requirements , They don’t put QuickTime, not even as an optional requirement.
