Recently I asked two questions on the Avid Media composer forum of problems I have been having I am sure many others editors will run across.
Avid has finally started working on a pared down version of media composer for those possible used the old Liquid intermediate version of NLE from Avid. The consumer version is Pinnacle, easy to use but always costing you to add effects and plugins.
