4) Disk Transfer - NEW

This disk transfer is really awesome and will open a lot of doors for Cassie users in the future.  For now, it will allow us to export/import up to 20 minutes of clips from your scene bin to/from the DVD drive on your Casablanca in uncompressed AVI format. 

 

When i imported some footage that i had previously exported to the DVD, i noticed that the footage came in at about 2.5 times real time !!!!  This will be great for all the users out there who have stock footage, intros, etc that you want to have on multiple hard drives or share/import to your PC.

 

Oh yes, if you have or get the new Pioneer 108 drive, you should be able to store 40 minutes of video on the new DUAL LAYER (DL) DVD disks

5) CB Paint Released - NEW

I had a chance to load CB paint on my Solitaire this last week and it is truly remarkable.  You can do just about anything that your mind can imagine.  The program costs more than usual, but its worth more than it costs.  If you decide to get this product for your company, it's like purchasing BlueBox World, Title-FX, Motion Perfect, Magic Lights, Akaba and more ALL AT ONE TIME.  I'm still learning the program, but if you have questions about this product, please feel free to contact me.
