Re: [Avid-L2] When do we get bigger-than-HD in MC?

Avid has been long overdue in rewriting the playback engine in MC &
Symph, especially now that the apps are 64 bit.

Resolution independence is one of the many benefits that would come with
that.

Anybody know what is going on with Avid in this regard? Did they even
hint at this at the last Editors Lounge/Avid event?
