Who should i refer to with my problems?
I have several issues that i cannot get productive because of them.
So far, none of this issues have been solved by this forum, it cannot be that instead of fixing bugs in newer versions I find new ones.
I bought 6 Edius packs and i have all the bugs in all of my systems.
Maybe I should refer to my dealer and ask for money refund.
I'm spending months in this forum and I cannot find any solution.

works fine here through my S-Video out direct to a DVD recorder, good enough for viewing all cameras at once by customer

Yes but not with Timeline timecode + a Fast encode will be quicker than real time.

Dave are you saying you would like to export the multicam view you see in the overlay or on an external monitor like a timeline print to file?

Wow, that would be a cool feature. What a great idea! From what you've said you've been using PIP to do it at this point, although that doesn't show the actual edit. I think that would be a HUGE feature for some people. I don't know of any other software that does it.

Tom, Yes I would like to export what I see on the external monitor and with the option of timeline timecode- no idea whether other SW offers this as to date I have been doing this via PIP. As with all features to someone they are a "must have" and to others they are of no interest. I would probably use Multicam 6 times a year Max so I am not going to lose sleep over it. I just know that if I film a promo of a show, we tend to do 3-4 takes to a click track of each of the numbers in the promo with 2-3 cameras these will then be stacked and my client will want to review the takes so if there are shots he does not like, he can see the options - then we redit the edits to produce the shorter final promo- like this one - www.dsvp.co.uk/AYNIL.wmv
I would add for full length work I would mix live but iso for "fixes" only. So whilst JKL is a must have for djozy, for other using multicam it is not important. That said, it is the responsibility of the SW team to get these features in and working to broaden the appeal to as many users as possible.
It might take just one feature to seel the SW to a new user.

Back to a Saturday evening bottle of Red!!!!

Having just been evaluating, Multicam in readiness for a project next week, I have discovered that you cannot export the Multicam view (ie to give a client multicam rushes on DVD)....so I suspect I will just use my previous multi PIP matrix which can display all cameras and Timecoded as well.

Well, seems v4.6 doesn't allow (restore?) the ability to Control-NumPad cut during JKL playback either. You can scrub and Control-NumPad to add a cut and switch, but not while playback is in progress.

Shortcut list is one the sticky posts.

I know for a fact that JKL switching did work at some point, but maybe it got broken somewhere along the way.

[skier-hughes]

This has never worked for me.
I've tried ctrl and number keypad, no joy.
Double clicking the target camera is not really ideal when trying to work fast.
I'll look in the shortcut list, but any clues as to what it's called, or what section to look in?

[GrassValley_BH]

At least in Multicam mode, JKL playback is considered "scrubbing" so standard NumPad will just switch camera, not add a new cut and switch.

My memory isn't serving me well so maybe it's not Control-NumPad and it's some other modifier. The proper shortcut should be listed in the printable shortcut thread. Double-click the target camera should do the same thing (cut and switch camera) though.

If that's not working, then something got broken along the way.

I must have it!
I used it all the time with version 4.24

[DigitalDave]

problem not solved.
when using JKL for X2 playback in multucam i cannot cut.
- the version is 4.54
- the 0 key mapped the same
- "contro + NumPad" isnt working at all
- using only NumPad isnt working

I just tried it on my OHCI and would agree that in "JKL mode" you cannot cut any which way either CTRL numpad or NumPad.

If you're in JKL playback, you have to use Control-numpad...

[Khoi Pham]

You have to remap your keyboard shortcut because they change it from the first version if you are use to pressing 0
