…and keep in mind if you plan to move the Mojo between 4.8.2 and 4.6.5 or older that you’ll need to up and down grade the firmware every time. So don’t get rid of that non-dual-core G5 just yet!

How about setting up a webcam over your shoulder and using some form of chat? I’ve got a client with a couple G5s in the suite and when I’m editing on one system, he can call up an iChat on the other one with an iSight FW camera hooked up – works quite well.

I believe you need to match the effect aperture setting of Boris to your DV video. In other words, set your effect aperture settings in Avid to D1 (486 high) or set your Boris FX effect hieght to DV (480 high) and they’ll be working at the same height. Then you shouldn’t notice when entering or exiting an effect

To confirm – QT 6.5.3 is the highest you should use if your on an XP machine, 7.0.2 is the highest if you’re running Tiger.

What version of Avid are you running? There was a lot of buzz about this error when QuickTime 7 came out and people were updating to QT7 with older Avid versions. It may be as simple as reinstalling the previous version of QT. On my AXP 4.3.1 I am sticking with QT 6.5.2. From what I can barely remember if you’re not on Tiger you won’t want QT7.

Try Unlinking your clips first at the bin level, then Modifying. Or another way that works is to change the setting (digitize settings I think) that forces your clips to be digitized at the logged resolution. Set res in the Media Creation settings and a batch should use that res instead of what was logged.

Hope this gets to you in time to help…
As far as the quick way to DVD via DVDSP, I always export a QT Ref out of Avid (sames as source -
Xpress will transcode any Avid resolution to DV on import – at least that’s what my non-Mojo Mac version does. So, as always the better the quality before exporting/importing, the better it should look after importing. OMF2 is great since Xpress fills the bin you import the OMF file into with all the clips in your sequence (plus whatever handles you add) as well as the sequence itself, just as it was in the Adrenaline.

Whoops, just reread you’re going into Xpress DV, so replace “Avid 2:1” with “Avid DV” codec for your system.
Although I think the Animation will probably look best. -
