Edius 6 and Vitascene-?

[mike0130]

It was on one of Edius6 promotion videos... Not sure what is going on- is now Vitascene a part of Edius 6 and installes together as plugin quietly? Or it comes separately on bonus disk?
Why even mention Vitascene- it was working before Edius6, it works now with current ver 5.x. Is it a "special" version or the same that posted on ProDad WEB site? Please explain what is so specific with Edius6-Vitascene combo, that was not in Edius5- Vitascene?
Thank you

VitaScene is announced as a part of EDIUS 6 Bunus DVD:

The latest ProDAD Service Pack for "VitaScene for EDIUS" is already supporting E6.
Unfortunately the history of ProDAD website is not up to date.

What this is all about is the ALPHA support in Edius - light rays etc didn't work as they ought to due to the way Alpha was handled. This has been fixed so now ProDAD and other alpha effects will work as they were designed to.

Thanks, but my question was "more technical". Let's say I am going to download demo in a week (few weeks), then install it. Is it contain Vitascene already, or I have to install it separately? From where?
The last version ov Vitascene on their site is xxx.46, is it the one that can work with ver 6, or the correct version is not published yet? And if this is not the one, let's return to the first question- are we getting it with trial?
Thank you

install the latest service pack of "vitascene for EDIUS"

It is already published and will show up as v 1.46.5
VitaScene1 should show up as a plug in EDIUS 6 demo shortly.

No third party plugins come installed
into Edius. If they did, they would not be plugins then.
The Vitascene plugin will come on the
bonus disk along with the other 3rd party
programs.

Thank you. So I understand that if I have a full Vitascene, I will be able to test it with trial when it (Edius6) will be available.
Thanks again

Your full version will need to have
the Edius six tpi. If you can get the download great, if not
it will be on the disc when you buy E6.

Be carefull to mix up "VitaScene full version" and "VitaScene for EDIUS"
It is highly recomended to use VitaScene for EDIUS only.

If you have a working VitaScene version on EDIUS 5, you can use it even for EDIUS 6 Demo (without Bonus DVD) just install the latest service pack 1.46.5, witch already includes the TPI for EDIUS 6.
