Background
Avid-L was established in 1994 at Calvin College by Steven Koster.
It was created to be a forum for Avid users to meet, discuss, and share
information.
Avid-L quickly grew into the premiere on-line users group for
professional film and video editors. It was one of the earliest examples
of an Internet community, allowing hundreds of editors worldwide to
share their experiences and expertise with their peers. There was no
better place for a professional Avid editor to get such wealth of
informed professional advice.
At various times, individual subscribers volunteered services to the
group. Searchable archives were maintained by Germany's Berlin Users
Group as well as the UIUC. A tips & tricks list was posted by Andy
Birkhead of Innovative Edit. Wes Plate, a longtime contributor, not only
shared key techniques on his Web site, he also created a photo gallery
for members' portraits.
In 1997, several subscribers began a tradition of meeting in person at
the NAB trade show in Las Vegas. The first gatherings were organized by Jaime Fowler. In 1999,
Avid Technology itself began sponsoring these gatherings as an exclusive reception and seminar for Avid-L members only. In 2002, this changed to the "Avid Users Group" meeting.
By 1999, Avid-L boasted over 1600 subscribers, exhibiting a true
international scope with over 300 international members. The community
included participants from a wide variety of well-known corporate
organizations in broadcasting, technical, and content creation fields,
as well as and multiple local TV stations, colleges, and universities.
In 2000, Avid-L joined AvidProNet.com, and then, in 2002, was integrated
Into Avid.com.
In 2005 Due to problems with signal to noise ratio and abusive posters, the Avid-L2 was formed. A year later the Avid-L was discontinued by Avid.
At the middle of 2006, the L2 has around 1100 members, with plenty of "lurker only" members who simply use the web version of the list. The L2 is spam-free, by moderation and with Groups.io’s tools and will remain that way.
In 2019, the Group has migrated to Groups,io from the previous Yahoo engine- the Groups.io page maintains the complete Avid-L2 archive. The original Avid-L archive has been lost to the history of the interwebz.
Welcome, and Enjoy!

The film was shot at 23.976fps, but the festival only projects DCP. To keep cost down, we're trying to do a few things ourselves before the DCP is made. The re-recording mixer provided us with a 24fps harmonized mix and a simple 5:1 expansion. Now I need to provide a 24fps QuickTime. Back in the days of FCP7, Apple provided the CinemaTools apps and it could do this in a very simple manner. One click and your QuickTime would display 24 frames each seconds instead of 23.976. Easy.
But I don't have a Mac which can run this software which EOL'ed... 10 years ago?
Then I remembered that Bouke's QTChange could do this. and I have it on a partition of my MacPro, an older partition running MacOS Sierra or something similar. I launch it, import my QuickTime, I see that there are local menus to choose my new framerate! I change it to 24fps, and hit the Do It button.;; And I get a warning telling me that this operation is NOT like the old CinemaTools function.
Damn.
I've been googling a lot and nothing came up.
And then I thought, someone here might have an idea!
Thanks in advance L-ers!
Pierre
