You just pinpointed the main problem I have with digital delivery.
Laying off to tape used to be the last chance to watch the master through, catch
any errors, and pickup the edit after fixing them.
When I deliver digitally it's all copying files so you have to spend time
beforehand watching everything to make sure it's all good.

Then I want a file based deck. Something I can control from the edit bay, feed
it an SDI signal and be able to pick up along the way if I catch an error. I
haven't worked in an ISIS, Interplay environment but maybe some of this
functionality is there. I'm under the impression you take a completed sequence
and ship it of to the playback server thingy when done but it doesn't sound like
you can watch it as it goes off to the server. I just don't like surprises but
I guess I'll just have to go with the flow, work flow that is, when a file based
delivery comes my way.
