Hi,
First real problem. Currently running 9.0e (never installed 10, need to
finish building new computer for 11)
Nominal work flow is 3 camera shoot with center wide fixed, 2 cameramen
outside doing closeups. Sound from soundboard and stage lip mics, recorded
separately (2 stereo, 4 tracks). Generally two continuous takes, 40m to 1h20m
in length, handled in separate .veg files. Alignment by hand (PluraEyes wasn't
always successful, takes too long). After everything is lined up, build multicam
and edit. Too bad there isn't a take switch counter, very seldom 1m on a take,
on this show counted one minute where there 7 multicam takes. Maybe 200
to 300 in an hr.
I have seen this on my 9.0e:

I've learned to be very careful when ctrlZ'ing (undo) to make sure the edit
point stays with the timeline cursor/preview window.
Finally the problem I just encountered:
What I haven't seen til now (and caught it on reviewing the master Dvd before
copying) was a loss of camera switches. Bringing the .veg up again I can see
all the take changes are there, but everything was to just one camera.
Maybe I made a mistake. Can you highlight a section of the timeline and
switch all the takes to one camera? Otherwise I think I found a bug. When I
edit I only work a few timeline minutes at a time reviewing the latest few
camera take changes to verify the visual (though usually still in multimode)
and with the ctrl-Z problem I thought I would have caught these take changes
that weren't. Maybe they were messed up on save/restore?
Ok, they're not going to fix it, just wanted to know if anyone else had
experienced it.
Hope to be up on I7/W7/VP11 soon.
thanks
jim
