Thanks.

Hi Richard,
Mainly the fact once the live event starts, I have mics, lights, video and audio cues to take care of and this makes monitoring the MicroTrack, which is phisically in the translator’s booth, somewhat difficult. Our translators work in pairs, switching every 20-30 minutes and I’ve run into pairs made up of a screamer and a whisperer. Fixable in post but the better recording you start with . . . I’ve also had the MicroTrack unit just stop recording and save the file, for no apparent reason, half way through the event.
If I could have either unit, feeding audio via USB to my laptop, close to my main audio board / playback rack /lighting console it would be more convenient to monitor and adjust the input.
Make sense?

Hi Jim,
I’ve been running Suite 1.5.1 with QT 7.6.6 for a while, without any apparent problems.

Hi,
– Never ran them networked but as a standalone player, I’ve used Mvix MX-780HD (https://www.mvixusa.com/) players with both SD and 720p HD material for long periods of time without problems.
– Don’t think they have a Blu-ray solution yet but this may be due in part to the relatively low number of Blu-ray players with RS-232 interface. Their devices work like a charm with Pioneer DVD players maybe they’ll update to control one of the Pioneer Elite series (BDP-23FD)

Hi,
Although I understand your interest in using HDD players, they’re compact and quite reliable. I’ve had some playing 24/7 in a museum environment for 8 months at a time, I’ve yet to find a way to synchronize them properly. Unless your program is more than 2 hours long, I suggest you save yourself a lot of grief and look into the DVD/ synchronizer option. I’ve heard good things about the Dave Jones system and I’ve had bulletproof results with this device: https://www.technovision.com/kpc2.html
Frame accurate control for up to 4 DVD players and once IN and OUT points on each DVD are identified and stored, units will stay locked for weeks if not months at a time.
Good luck with whatever solution you choose,
Marc

Thank you for your suggestion, I will definitely look into the Gefen splitter.

Thank you, as always, for your prompt response. One for the wish list I guess.

Hi,
Although not the most recent list, Andrew Mehta posted this *.pdf a while ago which I found quite useful. I’ve been using a lot of these since v.7.5 and most of them still work.

Hi,
I use Boris for titling within M100 and the usual Mac accents work 90% of the time is the font has them.

Hope this helps,

Hi,
Thanks for posting back Floh. Since it only marginally affects functionality, I guess we’ll just wait for 13.0.5 or whatever v.# is next.
