Re: [Avid-L2] Animating Still Images within MC

Keld, this has not been my experience. I can apply the effect to a clip, but MC crashes when I launch the UI. What version of MC/RED are you using? I'm on Win10 with RED v5.6 and MC 21.2 (but this has been the case for the past several MC versions). I would really like to get it working again, so I may need to do more troubleshooting. Thanks!

I like “Moving Pictures” at StageTools for moving on images.

Re: [Avid-L2] ISIS Orphaned storage manager recovery help

Oh, that's a good idea.  I may give that a try tomorrow.  I think I want to be hands on for this part as opposed to remote.  And I seriously doubt that a anyone made a metadata backup before the gear purge.  There were 3 pages of notes that covered the Nexis and EditShare.  No mention of the ISIS.  I really do suspect it was shut down and left in the rack for a year and a half.  I've just been asked to try and access any data that I can for LTO archiving.  So if none of this works I don't think it's too detrimental. 

I don't even know what we are going to do with it once I've either back up the data or exhausted attempts to get at the data.  I think that the ISIS 5000 are past support completely now.  

https://avid.secure.force.com/pkb/articles/en_US/FAQ/End-of-support-dates

I may see if our IT manager wants to use them as extra storage or something.  I'm still using our old Unity as extra storage.  I put some 3TB drives in it and have it running FreeNAS.  Works fine for being slow.  

Thank you for all the ideas and suggestions.  They are very helpful.

Yes, it sounds like the ISIS has not been used for a while. Did anyone make a backup of the metadata before transporting it to you?

ISIS 4.7 will not mount metadata that is more than 14 days old. The fix to this is back revving the computer clock 13 days after the metadata date. This will load it. Stop the server which will force an update. Repeat until you have the correct time and date.

Re: [Avid-L2] ISIS Orphaned storage manager recovery help

I assume you have the original chassis running System Director? If not, the current System Director must have access the original Isis metadata by placing it in the proper location in the D drive.

[Avid-L2] ISIS Orphaned storage manager recovery help

The short version

I have received a ISIS 5000 that was previously deployed and managed by someone else. I do not have contact with the former admin. I have racked and cabled it up and what not. When I go into the Management Console and go to the Storage Manager section both storage managers [primary and expansion] are showing as 'orphaned'. I have found plenty of documentation on how to remove those orphaned storage managers but it will wipe all the data. What I can't find is info on how to recover the orphaned storage managers and rebind them to the system and get them back online. Maybe I'm looking in the wrong place? Maybe it can't be done? Not sure. Looking for suggestions.


More BG.

The system is not under support contract. They didn't renew it because they didn't have the funds as they were slowly going out of business. So I can't call in for support.

I do have a ISIS 5500 of our own so I'm a bit familiar with ISIS, but I have not ever had to deal with this issue before.



Thank you for assistance and suggestions.


Jay

Re: [Avid-L2] Animating Still Images within MC

I use BCC pan and zoom because I like the preview mode. Sitting on my phone now but can Avid Pan and Zoom be promoted to 3D?

What is everyone using these days to animate stills while staying in the timeline? For years I relied on Boris RED to complete the task. It was robust enough for advanced keyframe animation and compositing, and I appreciated having a separate application window for functionality.

Boris RED development was discontinued several years ago at v5.6, but continued functioning for MC, albeit hamstrung. Now it doesn't work at all. I've been using AfterEffects, but I'm looking for something more efficient than roundtripping, especially when I have a ton of stills, or need to make minor changes. There's always the built-in Avid Pan & Zoom, and I have BCC Pan and Zoom, but I find these both to be clunky for anything beyond basic moves.

Thanks for any insight or suggestions.
