There have been a number of posts added to the thread here on the DUC since I last posted here about it. Here are two more work rounds suggestions.
First one is from SOUTHmsd…
I had clients make a surprise pop in yesterday since editorial is right down the street. I generally work (when i’m by myself) with a qt file in the session on one of the host screens. I updated from 8.x.x to 8.0.3 last thursday. With 30 minute’s notice, I started prepping the sessions for playback on the big screen. That’s when I discovered the issue. My fix for this mega-annoying bug was, before switching between sessions remove the dv file from the regions list. Then import again on the fly when reopening. It looked a lot better than jumping behind the desk and yanking cables out and putting them back.
and the second from JimLeb…
My Canopus runs off of AC (not the Firewire for it’s power). I set up an X-10 remote control and an appliance module to turn the box off every time I launched a session. I’m happy being back on 8.0.1cs1. Outside of having to unmount drives within ProTools, I don’t feel like I’m hurting for 8.0.3.
It seems as though my advice from my first post is that anybody using video and Pro Tools should stay on 8.0.1 until this has been fixed.
