The Mac version of the PC update - same basic codec improvements. Also some Macintosh specific fixes.
FirstLight has had its project reading logic changed to reduce the memory used when creating thumbnails. This would cause an out of memory error for large projects (500+ clips).
Fixed a bug introduced in the last week in FirstLight which would not allow you to transcode Panasonic AG-3DA1 files correctly.
Fixed an error where the metadata for a clip could be truncated accidentally. This would show up in FirstLight as corrections/keyframes or second eye fixes vanishing.
Fixed the single eye color correction in FirstLight. You can now apply white balance correction to a single eye without applying an overall correction.
Codec changes specific to the Mac:
Changed the interaction with QuickTime so now both FCP and AE seem to be happy with us. They will both use their appropriate deep pixel formats when rendering. This has been tested with FCP 7 and Premier as well as QuickTime. Please report any issues you may see with these changes in other applications.
Fixed the 601/709 color setting when transcoding from Canon source files in ReMaster.
Other minor fixes as well.
To use the deep pixel formats in AE with this beta, you will need to add the following lines to the MediaCoreQTCodecRulesCS5.xml file. This file is found in: ~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Common ( the Library folder in your user folder - not the one at the root).
<QTCodec codec='CFHD' vendor='****' platform='mactel' direction='encode' versionlow='0x00000' versionhigh='*' gammatag='false' cvbuffertag='0' deepdecodefourcc='b64a' decodefourcc='2vuy' />
