[Avid-L2] Re: wacom tablet windows 7 (and Avid FX)

 

Thanks for the heads up and submitting the photoshop issue. I gather though that the quicktime issue that has been discussed on the Avid community page is not going to be fixed. We also have a lot of archived projects where quicktime media (movs) has been imported to Avid FX.

I appreciate that you monitor this forum and respond so quickly,

Thanks
