EditDV Unplugged 1.1.3 is designed specifically to support the Radius FireWire card with Radius MotoDV and Apple FireWire hardware. FireWire hardware from other manufacturers is unsupported at this time.
QuickTime 3.0 or later is required for EditDV Unplugged. You can download QuickTime 3 from Apple at http://quicktime.apple.com.
If you did not purchase this application:
* This application will no longer run after 45 days from installation.
* No support is available for it beyond what is available on the Radius Web site.
For technical support, or to obtain a version of EditDV Unplugged that will not "time out", contact Radius Sales at 1-800-5RADIUS.
Many more features are available if you upgrade to the full version of EditDV. Select the "Get Plugged" menu item from the File menu in EditDV Unplugged for details. This menu item will automatically launch your Web browser and go to the EditDV Unplugged Web site at http://www.radius.com/GetPlugged/. You can also contact Radius Sales directly at contact 1-800-5RADIUS.
If you are using Radius MotoDV:
EditDV Unplugged has already been configured to work with MotoDV; if your MotoDV is functioning normally, then EditDV Unplugged should function normally. The Capture menu is dimmed, however. Instead of using the Capture window, continue capturing clips with the MotoDV application as usual, and import them into EditDV Unplugged. The full version of EditDV will allow you to capture directly from the Capture menu.
MotoDV Troubleshooting:
If your rendered effects and transitions are of poor quality, you will need to either revert from QuickTime 3.0 to QuickTime 2.5, or update MotoDV to version 1.1.2 or later by calling Radius at 1-800-5RADIUS. If you are using version 1.1.2 or later, experiment with the QuickTime compatibility controls in the SoftDV Codec Options, accessible from the Control Strip. For more details, consult the MotoDV 1.1.2 readme.
If the Titling filter displays no controls in the Controls palette, then you must install GX Graphics. This system extension is located in the folder called "Drag to System ƒ Icon" in the EditDV Unplugged folder. It is not necessary if QuickDraw GX 1.1.6 or later is installed from the MacOS installation CD.
If your FX window is black, you need to install QuickTime 3.0 or later. You can download QuickTime 3 from Apple at http://quicktime.apple.com.
If you are using the Apple FireWire hardware:
Before you open the Capture Window, make sure that the FireWire hardware and software is installed and working, and that your DV device is powered on and in VTR mode.
Before you can capture with EditDV Unplugged, you must select the DV input for video and for audio using the Video and Sound Settings dialogs, accessible from the Capture menu in EditDV Uplugged.
To fully enable device control, select the plug-in from the popup in the Capture Options dialog, available from the Capture window.
Apple FireWire Troubleshooting:
If the Capture menu is dimmed, make sure that your Apple FireWire hardware is connected and working properly, and that the DV device is powered on and set to VTR mode.
If the Preview window appears as just a title bar labeled "Preview", make sure that your FireWire hardware is connected and working properly, and that the DV device is powered on and set to VTR mode. Verify that you have set the video and audio input source to Apple DV in the menu items under the Capture menu.
If there is no audio in your recordings, make sure that the audio input is set to DV in the Sound Settings dialog, available from the Capture menu.
If your program drops frames or there are clicking sounds when exporting to your DV device, you may select from three options:
1) Update the AP track option-click on its Ear icon to solo the AP track for playback. Then export to DV again.
2) Obtain a faster system or disk drive.
3) Upgrade to Radius MotoDV (which is included with the full version of EditDV), which is very likely to be able to play your existing program smoothly on your current hardware configuration.
If the Titling filter displays no controls in the Controls palette, then you must install GX Graphics. This system extension is located in the folder called "Drag to System ƒ Icon" in the EditDV Unplugged folder. It is not necessary if QuickDraw GX 1.1.6 or later is installed from the MacOS installation CD.

Known Bugs
The following bugs are known to exist in EditDV Unplugged.
* The FX Monitor does not display correctly in PAL. Rendering, however, will work correctly.
* A crash will occur after using the Eleminate or Erase functions on clips that include the very first frame of the program. Select the clip and use the Delete key instead.
* The Preview window will not initialize properly if the DV device is not turned on when the Capture window is opened. Close the Capture window from the Capture menu, turn on the device, and then open the Capture window.
* A crash may occur when viewing waveforms of imported AIFF files. Open AIFF files in MoviePlayer and save them as QuickTime Movies before importing them into EditDV Unplugged 1.1.3.
* Space Available doesn't always update immediately if you delete a clip from the project (deleting media files).
