Re: [Avid-L2] Re: Big Changes To The MC UI...

 

So distributed process is interesting but how bout multiple GPU processing.  That's what I really want to see work like Resolve and Adobe do.  Anybody know if this networked distributed processing incorporates multiple local GPUs in a tower?

Next generation Avid Media Engine is prominently mentioned in the video.  Obviously, would like more info on all this stuff, but it would seem to be what you are asking for.

I love working in Avid as it's my home turf but I can't playback 4K 10 bit green without rendering when I have LUTs.  Sure I can switch to yellow/green and maybe get by but there is a slight shift in color when I do it.  Perhaps it's not a visible shift but I see it on the scope enough that I want to color correct in 10 bit green like I will export.

I wouldn't be all that excited about Smith Corona coming out with a new typewriter that has a new font on the keycaps unless it did something better than the old one.

I'm not surprised as the last round they were touting the background save function, like it was a big improvement.  I don't find the old save that daunting so big whoop.  And don't get me started on Titler+!  Using resources to put lipstick on a ... is how I feel about a new UI when I can't even figure out how to justify text inside a field/layer/object, you tell me what the proper terminology is.

I people like the new UI that's great but when they can't playback 4K smoothly the slickest UI in the world won't keep them happy.

Yes to this.

The recent Avid subscription mandates
have put me in a bit of a bind. 

Resolve is amazing.
I have only done a perfunctory dive into it,
and even then the color results are superior.
Still working on tracking …

Sarcasm aside I think this bodes well. I'm an inch away from switching to Premiere, this makes me want to  give Avid one more chance to really make some improvements.
