Now I’m really pissed I can’t write a DVD via Edius timeline

[sitosson]

Hi All,
There are a couple of things from us.

1. Windows 7 is not offically supported yet and from the testing we have been doing here on our systems encoding and DVD/BD creation has been the most amount of bugs.

2. Have you installed V5.12?

Regards

Chris

Hi Chris

I sad to hear that Edius is so bad prepared for Windows 7 yet. And as Matt is asking is long to time to wait. This situation is intolerable for us who are using Edius as working tool.

So please give us some patch who can solve the most essential bugs.

I try to fix the problem by get rid of my Firecoder Blu card see how is goes, it’s sad and it still dosen't work as I exspected.

Yeas I have installed V5.12

EDIUS is working perfect with operating systems which are on the supported list.
My suggestion is only use windows 7 when official support is announced.

If you are using EDIUS as a working tool as you state you should not experiment. Because it can cause you money, time .

IMHO request for patches and complaining about windows 7 support is all but lost time. If history serves us right it will come with the next mayor upgrade which has not even been announced.

Hi Steve

You have absolute right I should suit myself to upgrade to Windows 7 but I was so tired of Vista for all those bugs and problem so I hoping that Windows 7 should be more friendly environment for the editing work. Burt I realize that it was not the case. I don't know if I have the strength to go back to Vista again.

Thanks for your advice.

The inclusion of Windows 7 support will more than likely be in the last update for Edius 5.

Thank Jerry

Can anybody give me some information when. As you can se I'm desparate longing for that patch, that information would ber very value for me.

[SRsupport]

There is no official announcement of any update to EDIUS 5 or if there will be any update to 5 at all. There is also no info yet what to expect with the next release. Usually we all look forward to NAB April time and read the announcement then.Iif you can hold off your productions until that time good.
Better go back to VISTA and save yourself some grief. I don't think you will get a solid answer to your question. It does not matter how many times you ask it.

But come to think of it I can maybe give sort of an answer: Soon? :)

if you want rock solid performance with no crashes at all, consider Windows XP

I have not tried Vista, so I can't say why yours used to crash a lot

I thought I find the perfect solution but I didn't.
My plan was to run Edius in XP-mode inside Windows 7. The install off XP-mode went well. And the install of Edius also was easy. But when i try to uppgrade Edius to ver. 5.01 it stop. The virtual XP couldn't find the USB-dongle it was therefore inposible to go further. Back to square one. Is there anybody who have find a solution for the dongle on a virtual XP.
Please let me know.

If you have XP you can install on different partition or hdd to dualboot.

This has already been discussed !

Xp mode inside win 7 is simmilar to VM, virtual machine, you will never get good (if at all) realtime audio / video performance, xp mode is designed to run legacy / custom software that is not written for vista or win 7 and are not realtime depended.

Lots of production facilities still run xp for stability / performance, there is no support yet for win 7, certainly not for xp mode and it never will for xp mode, or I'll eat all my dongles.

Windows 7 support for EDIUS is targeted for mid-2010. Official announcement to follow.

EDIUS Neo 2 Booster supports Windows 7 now.

[SRsupport]

Nice to know. Maybe this announcement can go in a sticky so we can point everyone interested in windows 7 to this information.

Thanks in advance.

[GrassValley_MN]

Good suggestion Steve. I am actually working on a document/statement for Windows 7. When that's ready, I'll place it as a sticky note on the forum.

[SRsupport]

Thank you very much it will be welcomed by lots who want to "know".

It's a real shame, they lag behind again *by another 6 months? Geez!
But that's the way it is.
