Mercalli V6 plugins for Magix aren't showing up

@Reyfox Indeed, weird, I downloaded the OFX demo, and it works in VP22. But you cannot seem to purchase it. There seems to be a discount, but no price. It is maybe still in beta? Or maybe they are still busy setting up their purchase options on the website for the OFX, I also notice they do not have a boxed image of the OFX version as the other versions.

I am also not sure if I am entitled to a free Mercalli 6 OFX plugin, as I have purchased Mercalli 6 Standalone some time ago...

Interesting.

Does anyone compared the new OFX v6 with Mercalli v5 Pro (that is exactly the same as v4 Pro) in terms of performance and features?
P.S. I'm talking about Pro, not about RT that I do not like at all.

P.P.S I've downloaded the OFX v6, installed it, testing myself.

@fifonik @Reyfox I contacted Prodad on their web contact form about the V6 plugin for OFX and their missing purchase link and price, and they send me a personal link for purchasing with a 30% discount (34,30 euro).

For a good while now they seem to be only offering upgrade, sale or discount to previous users who contact them directly. Not sure why that is.

Reyfox wrote on 12/30/2024, 1:54 PM

@bitman Is it just for the V6 plugin and not the entire Suite like with other Magix products?

@Reyfox the V6 plugin is an OFX plugin, I assume it is just an OFX wrapper around an existing product of theirs. The advantage of an OFX product, is that it is not limited to one custom supported NLE, but the plugin (should) work on all NLE's which support OFX, so it should work on BM resolve and Vegas alike for example.

Best is to download it and try it out (has a watermark) before purchasing a license I would say.

@bitman thanks. I did download the trial version, and it seems to only be the plugin. I do have the Suite for Mercalli V5 which contains additional plugins for Vegas. I thought they would update the plugins and include them too, but at the price you listed, I didn't think so.

I wrote to them and am waiting to see what price they give me.

Again, thanks for the info!

@bitman, ok, I bought it. It was cheap enough and it shows up right along with all the V5 Suite.

I did write back to them about where is the color correcting. The reply was that it was not a part of the OFX plugin. I proceeded to send them a screen shot of their webpage where it says it is and suggested they change the page.

And it does work in Resolve Studio.

@wiel-gulpen neither do I. Is there a separate installation of proDAD Picture Enhanzr?

I have it for the Mercalli V5 Suite for Vegas Pro, but according to the proDAD website, it should be there.

I also own Mercalli 6 SAL and V5 Suite for Vegas Pr, as you.

I have the Picture Enhanzr for V5 above!!

Not the version that should belong to the OFX plugin for Mercalli 6.

@wiel-gulpen thanks. I wrote to proDAD about this. I wrote specifically about the Enhanzr. Here is the reply:

"Hello,

I have now spoken to our engineering department again.

Mercalli V6 OFX contains the Stabilzer, CmosFixr and Enhanzr (color correction).

Please install this setup again: https://www.prodad.de/support/mercalli/mercalli-60-ofx64bit.exe"

I was asked to send the protocol file for Mercalli V6 OFX so that it can be analyse what´s happening.

I am quite happy with V5 Suite for Vegas Pro.

PS: I do have a question however. The "old" Mercalli used to have a "rock steady camera" preset. I can't seem to find it in the OFX version. I've fiddled with the settings and can get my clip fairly steady but not "rock steady" as in previous versions. Does anyone have an tips here?

Another question, how do you access Enhanzr? Is it listed in the Video FX tab?

Here is what shows up for proDAD in the Plug-in Manager.

@Reyfox My normal workflow is to click on the fx icon on the event. That brings up a panel where I can add video fxs. Click that and another panel comes up where I can select the fx to add. See below 1, 2, 3.

If I open the "Video FX" tab, there is a separate entry for each Mercalli OFX plugin (Enhanzr is circled in red on the attached image).

I had Mercalli V5 installed on another computer but not this one.
