Edius 4.5 and RexRT

[feltenvi]

Has anyone had any luck with 4.5 and the RexRT? It installs ok but the RexRt driver does not appear in the settings! Any help would be greatly appriciated! feltenvi

RexRT drivers are not included in 4.5....go to the Canopus site and download the drivers from your RexRT page. Install it, then restart your computer. See if it works.

I don't think RexRT is "officially" supported by Edius anymore, but some people seem to have luck with 4.24.

Drivers

The drivers are in the driver folder, they just don't work!

[STORMDAVE]

Do you mean the Canopus DV drivers? The RexRT is not in that list.

Or do you mean the RX-E1 folder? That's not for the Rex.

DVRexRT

If you start the driver setup it comes up with a box and the first one listed is Drivers for DVRexRT. Check it out! They don't work! feltenvi

Try redoing the Driver Install by going into the Driver Folder and re-running Setup.exe and rebooting the system.

Tried That!

Talked to Tech Support, but they could not help me, that's why I'm here! feltenvi

I'm currently install Edius 4.51 and looking at both DVStorm driver TXT file from both v4.51 and v4.24, both have the same 2.01h driver version for the DVStorm. I didn't check your RexRT but I'm assuming it the same too, but double check.

Okay try this if you what to; unzip Edius 4.24 in as C:\DLFiles\Edius4.24UP and ONLY install the drivers from Edius 4.24 driver folder and see if that works.

Another one would be to go to the device manager, delete the DVRex device. Restart your computer, and when it asks for a driver, click cancel....then run the setup again.

Drivers

I tried installing the drivers from 4.0, they didn't work! D RexEdit works fine and I would not like to mess with it because I use photoalbum in it. If nothing else I'll have to stay with 4.24! feltenvi

Same problem here with dvrex

I have tried all the above and can't get the REXRT to show up. Any other ideas?

[Matt]

no luck here either... worked fine in 4.24

no love from GV for REXRT? Thanks for keeping it in the setup as that will surely add salt to the wound... :-(

[GrassValley_KH]

I will try and get an answer for you, but I really do think that it's most likely going to be unsupported.

[Matt]

I understand unsupported... but

it's almost like this was intentionally disabled for REX RT users. I would love to take advantage of the rebranded bug fix version of Edius 4.51.

Unfortunately, if I have to go OHCI, Edius won't be my NLE of choice.

Hiro retired too soon...

Ok,
You like your Rex, so do I. Was it working before 4.51? Just go back and it will work once again. Were you happy with Edius 4.24? Your talking about a piece of computer hardware designed in, I think 1996. 11 years in use in a computer is unheard of.(I still feel it was the best piece of hardware Canopus released).
So, please, cut em some slack.

I still have mine in my second machine. I really don't use it. Editing with
the NX and having HD output then going to the Rex is a big drop down the evolutionary scale. I am currently upgrading my second machine to
HD, but with uncompressed capabilites.

It was mentioned in the sticky that this might happen. We were lucky that it still ran, for the most part, in 4.0. Be happy you were able to use it this long.
This is why I upgraded last year to the NX. I was not happy about it, but
the writing was on the wall.
