Known issues
• If you’re using the RS-422 connector on your Matrox MXO2 hardware with
a Panasonic AJ-SD755 deck, you may get an error when batch capturing
clips. As a workaround, try using a suitable adapter (RS-232 to RS-422 or
USB to RS-422) to connect the serial device control port on the deck to your
computer. (Ref# VPG-4650)
• When you open the
Title tool using Avid Media Composer 6.0.3 on Matrox
MXO2, the background in the
Title tool does not update to show the video
on the
Timeline. The video will be displayed after you scrub the Timeline
and click in the
Title tool. This issue is fixed in Avid Media Composer 6.5.
(Ref# VPG-4336)
• If you change the project format with the
Capture tool open using Avid
Media Composer 6.0.3 on Matrox MXO2, you’ll get an error and the
DNxHD formats won’t be available in the
Capture tool. This issue is fixed
in Avid Media Composer 6.5. (Ref# VPG-4315)
• If the video quality for playback in an SD project is set to anything other
than Full Quality using Avid Media Composer 6.0.3 on Matrox MXO2, the
Title tool won’t display the background video. This issue is fixed in Avid
Media Composer 6.5. (Ref# VPG-2647)
• If you experience errors relating to coincident points when using RS-422
device control with certain decks, set your deck preferences to relax
coincident point detection. To do this, click the
Settings tab in the Project
window, double-click
Deck Preferences, and then select Relax coincident
point detection
. (Ref# VPG-1436)
• In order to capture NTSC source video with audio in a project that has a
23.976p NTSC format, the video pulldown cadence for the project must be
set to standard 2:3:2:3. If you change the project type for a 1080p/23.976
project to 23.976p NTSC, you’ll need to change the video pulldown cadence
accordingly. To do this, click the
Settings tab in the Project window,
double-click
Film and 24P, and set Video Pulldown Cadence to
Standard, 2:3:2:3 pulldown. (Ref# VPG-1252)
• For surround sound HDMI audio output, Matrox MXO2 outputs the low
frequency effects (LFE) track on channel 3 and the center (C) track on
channel 4. However, if you capture the HDMI surround sound output from
MXO2 using your Avid editing application on another MXO2 system, the
Avid editing application will assume that C is on track 3 and LFE is on track
4. This means that the C and LFE channels won’t be in the correct order in
your captured file. To play back and output your captured file correctly on
the MXO2 HDMI output, you can select
Direct or Direct, surround tracks
in SMPTE order
(depending on the version of your Avid editing
application) in the
Audio Project Settings dialog box to map track 3 to
output channel 4 and map track 4 to output channel 3. (Ref# VPG-1606)
