We got a Lyric a few months ago, and I’m still trying to get it online. There are many great people out there on the Lyric, but it’s a full-time job for them. This is the least intuitive, cranky and non-logical software that I’ve ever used. I wish the engineers would at least LOOK at an After Effects interface and workflow to see what a good piece of code looks like.
I think Chyron might have problems down the road if they don’t somehow streamline their product because fewer and fewer stations are devoting a full time chyron operator. This isn’t a program that you can just pick up on an occasional basis.
