Last
week we aired a "Processing Required" on a graphic. My comment to the producer
with whom I was watching this air (I did not cause the problem, just witnessed
it) was that no non-linear editor is a playback device.
There
are too many issues with any non-linear editor to be able to use it for playback
(this is not an Avid issue). With respect to going to tape, the little red
button is generally accurate. I find the yellow bars on the timeline to be
inaccurate. They always need rendering.

Hi Loretta,
Until we get that, there's always
that bright red "led" next to the Ripple button.

ps - as for "Needs Processing" going out on air I saw a documentary go
out on Sky a few weeks back with "Media Unavailable" in three different
places. How did THAT get through tech review?

Hi,
Everyone,
I understand that this
is something that others have asked for but it won't hurt to ask
again.
It would be nice to have
an error message if you have unprocessed scenes when you output to
tape.
I noticed on a Friday
night newscast that they could have used it, too. There it was, as bright as
day..."Needs Processing". Ouch.
