Media Management, Capture/Output, and Archive/Restore
Clip Properties Not Inherited from Version 4.0
If you have both Avid|DS 4.x and 5.0 installed on your workstation, make sure that version 5.0 was the last one
installed. If not, you cannot see the clip properties when you right-click on a clip. To fix this problem, uninstall and
reinstall version 5.0.
23.97 Format Needs Tri-level Synchronization Signal
A proper tri-level sync is mandatory when working with the 23.97 format, since the Avid|DS system cannot, at the
moment, synchronize internally. Without a tri-level sync, your captured media may be corrupt or you may
encounter frame accuracy problems.
Disable Viewer if You Encounter Problems while Capturing/Recapturing from Tape
If you encounter problems capturing or recapturing material from tape, you should disable the viewer using the
Viewer button in the status bar and try capturing again. To avoid any problems, the viewer is disabled by default
when capturing full resolution HD material at 29.97 and 30 frames per second.
At Least One Audio Storage Must Have ID=1
The Avid|DS storage utility automatically sets up an audio storage area with an ID of 1 during installation. You can
add new storage areas or modify/delete existing storages, but make sure that there is at least one audio storage set
with an ID of 1, or you will not be able to start the Avid|DS system.
