[Avid-L2] Re: wacom tablet windows 7 (and Avid FX)

 



Thanks Dirk for your response

Any idea how long it will be until a fix for the wacom issues?

We have also having issues with Avid FX no longer supporting quicktime movies being imported to Avid FX. This is a real issue as we have many show archived to LTO and when we restore them, the FX will have to be rebuilt. I have read your thread on the Avid Community.

And on another note, I have confirmed that BCC 8 in Avid version 6, the Pan and Zoom fx no longer supports photoshop files. Many projects currently being edited in Avid version 5.5 have been using photoshop files. Why has this been dropped? Avid FX 6 supports photoshop files but BCC 8 does not?
