So, people tried to get around that baked-in limitation and multiple parties succeeded. It's a really great piece of hardware, but also quite costly compared to other options the market for NASs is quite crowded to say the least 😁 That sounds simple, but it’s not if the NLE vendor locks that feature down to its own line of shared storage: NEXIS. When you're done, the lock is released, and other editors can get in to the edit and add to or modify your work. With your media bins locked, someone else trying to get into your project will see a red lock indicator, which means "you can look in here but you can’t modify anything". And the way you do that with Avid is with Bin Locking. So, it's essential to be able to stop someone else from overwriting your files while you're still working on an edit. If that happens, file corruption is bount to occur. You need to prevent having two people working on the same thing, at the same time. The key to collaborative editing is a very simple idea. Today could hardly be more different, with a plethora of inexpensive high-performing third-party storage options and a wide range of Macs and PCs to chose from. Fine-tuning and choosing the right components, including storage, was the only way to get enough performance for video, and required a lot of skill and knowledge. Back then, every single part of the NLE was controlled by Avid. It was a giant leap from the tape-based systems of the time, quickly becoming the standard for broadcasters and filmmakers. For Media Composer users, Mimiq enables collaborative editing without having to buy into Avid’s proprietary NEXIS hardware.Īvid Media Composer burst onto the video editing scene over thirty years ago. It's a natural instinct for editors to work together on a video production.
That’s good news for everyone, including existing Mimiq customers.
