Chris I think you've hit the nail on the head. All these years I thought I was just passing on goofy anecdotes about a funky hot dog shack in Hollywood. But in reality I must have been subconsciously dealing with my frustration with Avid's color corrector. In hind sight if Oki Dog of all places can remodel and update why can't the Avid color corrector get some sprucing up. As much as I like the Avid color correction for the types of shows I work on the fact that the master clip non linear application of color correction was broken between 3.5 and 4.x is harder to stomach than an Oki dog on the worst of days. You've made me see the light once again. ;-)
