Ok. But tell me this. Will the later version of Java run on 10.7.5 that’s on my main MacPro2,1 that’s from 2007? Yes, I know it’s old. But I have two of them and they’re still the primary work machines until we get new ones (which are months overdue). I don’t want to wipe out the older Java just to find out that the new one won’t work and I have to dig around to find the old one again and spend all the time fixing. Been there before.
Thanks

We too are waiting, I know Avid integration is a big part of Pegasus. Maybe it’s only there to push us into the more expensive option.

OK, so I wasn’t the only one confused by the question.

but are you passing through a windows server somewhere? I do and it slows down logging in.

Are you going between Mac and Windows systems? I had to move the server over to Windows. I find it’s always slower connecting than when I had it on a Mac. My clients are all on Macs of various types

how many clips in the individual catalogs?
How “open” are the queries? That is, are there many limits on search parameters?

You can drop a time coded text file into the Verbatim transcriber. Just format the timecode entries the same way that CatDV does. That way all the code references will carry forward.

Are you talking about doing open captions on the files?

I use Sublime Subtitler to create and lineup (spot) subtitles and open captions and such. I can do everything I need as far as formatting and timing and then export the files in a variety of formats.

It gets a little weird when one copy isn’t actually anamorphic but square pixels in the correct number.

I find when I make low rez (20:1) SD copies of DNxHD footage for Media Composer, or CatDV Proxies of either the DNxHD or Low rex SD MXF, I always have to go in and set the aspect ratio in CatDV to 1.78. I’ve just gotten used to always doing it. Of course I am switching the 16:9 HD shots to SD 20:1 (saves me a lot of space on the system). So that actually seem appropriate. But going to mp4 CatDV proxies from the HD you’d think the system would figure it out for you.

Oh yeah. When I have the time I put transcription files into the verbatim logger. Then it’s permanent and makes life much easier.
