So yes it would be nice if unexpected fatal errors never happened but the nature of monthly updates and the fast development cycle make that almost impossible. MediaCentral leverages the same proven and reliable workflow technology, optimizing it for today’s high-volume, fast-turnaround content demands and dispersed teams and site locations. I've received media from someone who's only a few iterations behind (in terms of Avid). This information is only useful to the programmer and even then only useful if the steps to creat that error can be reproduced and included. For over 25 years, more broadcasters and post facilities have relied on Avid media management than any other solution. I'm on latest Avid MC (2022.7), running MacOS monterey 12.4.
Rather than just crash the application because the programme nolonger knows what to do next (based on what just happened) we raise a general error (or fatal error) and include the code that led to that step going wrong. We then add error trapping routines to catch outcomes we didn't exepct to happen but knew could happen.įor these we generate a meaningful message to help the user understand why we generated an error.īut that still leaves lots of potential errors we neither expected or planned for. The ones we expect to happen control the flow of the application as expected. We would like to send you information on our latest special offers as well as relevant news, articles and event invites.

When writing code there are always multiple outcomes of each instruction executed. Get in touch to speak to an expert about MediaCentral.
Having done some programing many years ago it may help if I explain what happens. Avid version 2021.2.0 Mac OS 10.15.5 Processor 3.
