Re: [Avid-L2] Bizarre Terrible No Good Bug in MC 8.4

 

There's been a number of similar off things in other video apps on another forum someone suggested it's linked to the retina display pixel doubling lower res interfaces. Was the zoom a 100% blow up?

Thought so.  

I've seen that behavior, outside of the Avid I think, when playing with other video apps (Vimeo material too). 

It could be an avid bug, but it started for me when the app was adjusting video resolutions for 4k and UHD material.  

I've experienced screen flashing and a few other abnormalities on the 5K too. 

Go to the OS video control panels and adjust the screen resolutions.  Restart the avid. 

Tell us if it goes away. 

At least for a while.

It's a spankin' new 5k Retina iMac fully loaded. But no Magic Mouse. Logitech mouse. Logic keyboard.

Cool.  Try restarting with brand new user settings.   

Is there an iMac or Magic Mouse  involved?

This isn't that. I've been cutting on Avid professionally since the late 90's, and this isn't that. Not by a long shot. The bug is buried somewhere having to do with setting ins and out, because it's the hitting of "I" or "O", or setting it using the on-screen icon that immediately blows up the image in the Source or Record monitor. You can click on either monitor, and the image will flash briefly to the proper full frame, but then immediately revert back to the super-zoomed-in version.

It's maddening. I need an explanation of how this might be my fault, some setting I've mistakenly activated, or whether or not it's a bug, and possibly I should do a full reinstall.

Sounds like you are zoomed in on the image. I have zoom in and out mapped to 'command +/-'

With the record monitor selected use the zoom command to get it back to normal size.

Has anyone seen this? When parking the playhead on a cut, or when setting an in on a cut (doesn't matter if it's before or after a cut), or if you simply place the playhead at the first frame of a sequence, or any other g-damned place, the image in the Source monitor, or the image in the Record monitor will suddenly zoom in on the frame by maybe 500%?

And then, even using, say arrow buttons to back up or move forward a frame, the Source or Record monitor (depending which one you're working in) will flash the correct full frame as you hit the arrow key, but will then immediately revert to its hyper-zoomed-in frame, making it nearly impossible to tell what you're looking at. Even the triable in and out markers on the side of the Source and/or Record monitors are zoomed in. The whole damned thing is zoomed in.

Am I the only one this is happening to in MC 8.4? Or is this maybe some "feature" or setting I have inadvertantly checked somewhere?

I'm on Mac OS X 10.10.4. Never had this happen when on MC 8.3.x on the same OS.
