  RE: Sony Catalyst available by Subscription only
  Sony's play makes no sense and I think is fed by desperation. It does make sense when you have a "decentralized" organization and yes, they (SCS) are desperate. Blackmagic is very different as other products are allowed to "carry" the weight of

  RE: no Vegas Pro 14 :(
  A rewrite seems very optimistic, but at least a new version coming out indicates Vegas is still alive (or at the very least, still on life support). It could be just another normal update, with no big changes. Anyway, I would expect an

  RE: Getting ready for 4K editing...
  That is wrong - Vegas can use proxy files, but it is not a must! Do you want to edit 8 or 10bit footage? That will make a huge difference. With a powefull PC 8bit is no issue really. 10bit is more tricky. Vegas can be used to bring a 10bit UHD

  RE: You Can NOT Test Catalyst Edit!
  Am I mistaken, or does Resolve only offer full-screen display over SDI? You can preview full-screen, but the preview covers up the GUI on single-monitor mode. On dual-monitor mode, full-screen preview covers up the node tree and color controls.
