RE: [Avid-L2] New wording in Avid 8.4 Export window?

 

Agreed John, I find it more confusing now.  Maybe it's because of the introduction of more colour spaces in to the system?  I believe 2020 is now an option?  I guess maybe it's more contextual now, depending on the colour space of the project rather than before when we just had two options?

Subject: [Avid-L2] New wording in Avid 8.4 Export window?

 
Just saw a posting about the new terminology in the Avid 8.4 Export window.  Instead of RGB radio button on top of 601/709 radio button it is now "Keep as legal" radio button on top of "Scale from legal to full range" radio button.  Perhaps it's just me but this wording is less precise than the older names.  Legal can change for different deliveries although I take it to mean 601/709 in this context.  Full range is okay but is that really a more universal term than RGB?  Perhaps it is more so in the graphics world just not so much in mine.
My bigger complaint is it seems they have reversed the functions of the radio buttons when I compare to my Ver. 6.5.x SNDX export window.  The old top button was for RGB export, a.k.a. "Full Range".  Now the new top button is "Keep as Legal", a.k.a. 601/709.  That means the functions have reversed in position right?
When they changed the import wording for dealing with square vs. non square graphic import the actual functions remained in the same radio button positions top to bottom.  Am I misinterpreting the post I saw?  Sure seems like changing the actual function relative to the original radio button positions is unnecessarily confusing?  John Moore
