I was digging through a bunch of stuff as to make my junk pile vanish when I found this cd in a bag with its documentation and a quick reference card.
It's Version 3 (point something something) and after I installed it on my 8600 it seems to be some sort of video editing suite. I have heard of Avid before (apparently back in the inferior mac days they were next to SGI in video editing and production) and I'm wondering if something this old software is still useable.
Since none of my SGIs have any kind of video editing software to run the video input and output hardware they have (I have an Indigo2 with Galileo Video and hardware JPEG Cosmo Compression and an Onyx with Sirius Digital video) this seems like something interesting to mess with as it has a bunch of CODECS and editing options but how compatible would it be with something like say Youtube?
EDIT: I also forgot that to make .mov files seemed trivial for me and the output was always a video which was ridiculously large in size. Am I doing something wrong?
