Graphics Plugin for Avid 2.2.1

Release Date: 2019-03-14

These are the release notes for Graphics Plugin for Avid 2.2.1. This document describes the user-visible changes that have been done to the software since version 2.2.0.

Fixed Issues

Graphics Plugin for Avid 2.2.0

Release Date: 2018-11-30

These are the release notes for Graphics Plugin for Avid 2.2.0. This document describes the user-visible changes that have been made to the software since version 2.0.1.

New Features

  • The plug-in now supports Viz Pilot Edge on both Windows and MacOS! Select Viz Pilot Edge as the User Interface in the NLE Configuration and point to your Viz Pilot Edge hostname using the Pilot Edge URL parameter. Launching the editor then opens the Payload Editor with Viz Pilot Edge (NLE-2111).

  • Added support for Stop Points. Importing graphics with Stop Points now displays the Stop Point Editor, which allows the user to alter the pause durations (NLE-1608).

  • Added configuration option for Still image playback. When this is checked, scrubbing and playback of unrendered effects will show a still image of the pilot1 preview point (NLE-2133).

  • Realtime playback is now supported. The plug-in now previews graphics during playback without needing to render the effect. Still-image playback is recommended when trying to play graphics in high resolution without first rendering.

Fixed Issues

  • Fixed a rare issue where existing graphics data could bleed over after swapping to a new graphic (NLE-2183).

  • Fixed missing title in NLE Configuration window while minimized (NLE-1407).

  • Fixed an issue where Tidy would trigger cleanup prematurely during scrubbing (NLE-1270).
