[Avid-L2] Re: OT: Attention to Detail?

No this was 50 plus reels and 388 clips all getting video from the wrong source while the bone head just kept putting tapes in what he though was the source deck. I just can't see not noticing the color bars on the Avid monitor when capturing. I mean if you look at the screen to see which tape to load it's just a glance to the right to see the input video is color bars not video off tape.
