“Until reciently, it’s price point is what kept most Avid users/owners on an MC.”
Many, many reasons to use MC over DS. Not everyone is in the finishing business, grin, and even those who are, sometimes see more benefit in MC/Symph. Different tools for different jobs. -
Still weird that you say the media you need is there, but does not link. Is it by any chance file based imported media (P2)?

Quarantined mediafiles have an issue. They are either corrupt, or they have incorrect permissions/ownership.

Agreed with Mike. I think that – besides corporate and indy work – commercials might be the territory where FCP has gained far more market share, but primetime and features are quite different. FCP’s market share in those areas seems overvalued by the fan base.
I’m pretty sure, though, that the original numbers, as mentioned by Tim Wilson in ’04, did indeed include the use of DS, ProTools and Unity, and there are definitely market segments where Avid has lost significant market share.
I can only tell that in my direct line of work, I see the vast majority of my colleagues editing on Avids. Way beyond 70/30 in favor of Avid compared to annything else.

As long as they have included all products and brands (DigiDesign’s ProTools)…

Quit the app, delete the media databases in your mediafiles folders, launch app. It should rebuild the databases.
In the app, open Media Tool. It should build up correctly.
Now try again to relink the sequence. -
For the record, when I refer to Nitris, I mean classic Nitris, not DX.

I’m pretty sure that Symphony Nitris originally did not at all support capture over FireWire.
If one was to do it on Adrenaline, personally, I’d disconnect the BOB, and use the software as standalone and capture over FireWire.
After that, you should be fine on both, although the earlier versions of Symphony Nitris did not officially support thin raster formats.
I don’t think HDV is a fun codec to be working in. General consensus seem to be to either capture over (HD)SDI (from a HVR1500 deck) or transcode after FW capture. -
Can you take your dongle to a different computer and try if Dongle Manager or Dongle Dumper recognise the dongle?
From what you describe, either the USB bus of your computer has gone bad, or the dongle is toast. If the latter appears to be the issue, contact support and have it replaced.

There is a replace edit function. Looks like Splice In (yellow) and Overwrite (red) but is colored blue.
You can choose MarkClip to select the right segment in the timeline, park on a sync point in the record monitor, park on a sync point in the source monitor and apply Replace Edit.
It will keep transition effects, but any effects on the segment itself will be gone. To keep those, you need to “step into” the effect, by using the up/down arrows in the lower left of the timeline.
