There appears to be a problem with the Razor tool in the edit tab. In 14, when I scrub along a live video track with the razor tool, the timeline monitor window only ever displays the uppermost live track. If my memory serves me correct, in 12.5, if a timeline track was live and you scrubbed over it with the razor tool, it would display that particular track scrubbing live in the timeline monitor window, even if there were other tracks live above it. Maybe its an option switch i'm not aware of?

Anyone else getting this behaviour or is my memory playing tricks!

Just installed 14.0.1. still the same behaviour with blade tool. Is this as intended... Anyone else experiencing this??

Yes, I have the same.
Is this a bug?

Yes piotr, i submitted a ticket and support guys said they'd replicated it and have passed to engineers for fixing... Hopefully in next version.

So we're waiting. Very missing feature.
Thanks for info.

Hi, what you see in v14 is a composite of all the tracks. If v2 has no opacity you can't see v1 so why blade it?

If there is opacity on the upper tracks, you see the lower ones when you blade in the composite.

Is the composite not helpful?

Hi Peter, thanks for chipping in on this. My usage is for multicam stuff in effect. When i have 3 or 4 tracks scrubbing with razor is quickest way to see if better footage on another camera at a particular point. I believe i was able to do that in 12.5. if you think there is a more efficient way (other than multicam, which is not fluid enough for me yet to use), i'd be happy to learn.

Thanks, Gary

Peter, look at the differences.

Frustrating that this bug has not been fixed in 14.1, despite bug acknowledgement on ticket submitted. Hopefully soon? Still loving what you BDM guys are doing with this and appreciate efforts on other bug fixes.

Really still not fixed it? This Bug is from beta 14.6 as well I remember.

Still not fixed in this iteration - 14.1.1. Seems a small thing, so not sure why not being fixed. Any chance in 14.1.2 - pretty please Peter!

It’s in the queue.

That's great to know Peter. Thanks for taking the trouble to reply.

It's great to hear that.

Lots of great fixes in 14.2, but sad is me as this frustrating bug has still not been addressed. Sorry to post again on it, but need to keep awareness till fixed. Thanks.

The new version DR, blade tool still does not work correctly.

Hi Peter, any idea how far down the queue this fix is?

Thanks,

Gary

Can anyone from BM team confirm if this bug is still due to be addressed please. Thanks.

Is the razor tool already working correctly in version 15?
