Re: [Avid-L2] Re: How do I install the red ama plugin?

In all honesty, for RED I use RCX or Resolve to make DNx MXF on a machine that has a rocket in it. Pretty much don't do transcodes in MC or Symphony, though I have. I just happened to of put new software on a machine, and use my laptop to download the plug-ins, so I remembered where it was.

Qe haven't been doing much RED-originated work lately, so I'm a tiny bit out of touch with the moment-by-moment weirdness. The first thing I do whenever I have a RED job coming in is update all their software to 'this weeks build!'

Just happened to have the email open waiting for my lovely wife to dress for dinner- hope you're able to meet your deadline.
