Interesting news for the Boris Red users overhere:
Boris RED 5 will support Adobe CS5, CS4, and CS3 under 64-bit and 32-bit Macintosh and Windows operating systems and Sony Vegas 9 under 64-bit and 32-bit Windows operating systems.
and.... we still need to put the transition time in boris? set project specs in there? same old horrible integration that boris complain ("sony plugin architecture limitation") and sony doesn't care?
Hope it (standalone) will output to AVI as well as it can to QT. I spent lots of time with BR4 trying every tweak-combination I could think of before ending up at that solution/workaround.
