yes you can,

Already tried that one Brandon - there is something rather specific about the shortcut for v1.xx.

No matter what, you cannot reproduce the original setup for EDIUS to recognise the shortcut's existance.

Can I confirm with version 2.0 if you can open this seperately and still be able to drag and drop video into the bin ?

This site still had Clip Browser v1.01 available

Still waiting for the fix

Hi, I still waiting for the fix, for XDCAM-EX browser ver 2.
I cant go back to version 1.1 becuse it not possible to download that version any longer from Sony.
So I'm stuck with my EX-clip and so I could not import them like I use before.
So please fix the fix a.s.p

Brandon, It is the full release and is also available on the Sony.biz site in the UK.

Depending on how EDIUS is trying to launch the Start menu shortcut, it should work to make an equivalent shortcut in the same place with the same name as the old Start Menu shortcut that's a shortcut to the new application. Whew! That was a run-on sentence...

[GrassValley_KH]

Unless Sony haven't quite finished prepping this update (ie. why is it only available on the Canadian site and nowhere else?), then we will probably have to patch EDIUS.

No idea how long that will take (or if it will even happen in 4.x's life). It's no showstopper for sure, as it's simply referencing something from the Windows Start Menu anyway. :)

[Geoff]

Is it likely that Edius will eventualy recognise the new version?

[GrassValley_KH]

Hmm - they've changed the shortcut somewhat, into a form that EDIUS cannot identify (and hence, it won't show up).

Still works the same way though with drag-and-drop. Nice update.

[GrassValley_KH]

My bad - I was referring to the Start menu folder path and naming (ie. the shortcut)

If it's even the slightest bit different, EDIUS won't see it.

[planetweckesser]

I believe it's related to where the application is installed (i.e. folder path and folder name)

So I'd suggest you make a note of the full path and name of the clip browser software and then use that same naming for the new software. Where did you get that software, btw? I'll pull it down and test it myself. :)

Thanks for the advice - tried it - EXACT same name and pathway and it still doesn't show up in the Capture section

It does a very good HD to SD conversion.

Seems to be much quicker to use, in that it finds the folders and files MUCH quicker on startup, and much better layout.

Is there enough difference/reason to go to 2.0?

It looks to be Canadian, eh?
