[Kieran Matthew] “As for the Lite version, from a quick scan of the feature set on innobits web site, It is only really the lack of CBR that would hamper you in making basic DVDs.”
One nice new feature BitVice Pro has is the ability to use Media 100 i/HD chapter marks. You can create your chapter marks in the timeline, export them with the QuickTime ref export and they will be transcoded by BitVice to DVDSP. This does not work with the Lite version as you can see here. Otherwise BitVice Lite will be perfect for encoding from Media 100 i or HD (check the StudioRGB checkbox!!!)

[Ted Joyce] “Can I just install the latest Mac OS on a large external firewire drive, install Final Cut Express HD on it and designate that my boot drive? Would this work and still leave my M100 system as is? “
Yes, no problem with that.
[Ted Joyce] “understand that my SCSI card & Drive arrays might not work properly with this arrangement but if I booted with them turned off might I expect success?”
There should be no problems with that. But I would install at least the latest drivers for your SCSI card (even if you leave the drives turned off), since you don

[Kim] “Is there a way to “rubber band” select a group of consecutive clips in a bin without having to shift click each individual clip? “
Not in List mode. In Poster mode you can do it using “Alt” dragging.
[Kim] “While I’m at it… is there a way to have new audio tracks default to “show audio waveform”? It’s not life or death but it sure would be nice to have the option without having to do it manually each time.”
No. Only with an AppleScript. I use one to create new timelines with audio waveforms turned on.

Depending on how long your shot is and how much changes you think you have to do on this it probably would be easier/faster to do that in Media 100 sw (you can download a beta for free) and export it from there back to Media 100 i.
In Media 100 i and Media 100 HD/sw the best thing would be to create your letterbox mask as an alpha channel on your digital juice background. Put that on G1 over the edited background. Now here -

Probably the best way is to export all the clips separately (maybe using the “export all clips” AppleScript) and then to reimport them with 44 kHz. I think that the clip names from the bin will be used as the clip names on export (and then also on re-import). Otherwise you have to modify the AppleScript to take the clip names as the filenames for export.

There are several workarounds for this depending on which software version you use. In newer versions (I think V8 and up) you can export a PowerLog from a Bin. Log all CamA clips, export Bin as Powerlog, reimport PowerLog adn rename the clips in the imported Bin.
The other way is to log all clips into the “A” bin, sav this bin, make a copy of this bin (or “save as” with a new name) and batch digitize one of these bins. The clips in the other bin will stay offline, and the clips in the first bin are digitized you can rename the clips in the second bin without changing the reel names in the first bin.
