Jerry,
Yes, I too am fed up. I keep hearing about these bugs that are taken care
of in 4.05, but no 4.05 software. It's not like we're using good software now
and they're trying to protect us from some bugs. It won't cost them anything
to post something that is more useable, that fixes some of the known bugs and
lets us SEE that something is being done. I don't see anything NewTek stands
to lose by posting 4.04c if they don't want to call it 4.05.
My drives (2 9gigs) are full of one project that I can't lay to tape
without stuttering, I don't have the time to try backing it all up (it would
take a couple of days). The footage was recorded directly into the Flyer, to
keep the resolution as high as possible before making a first generation tape
complete with titles, graphics and all. Even if I made the time to backup the
files, my Flyer acts up after a few hours and drives become inaccessable
because of overheating (each drive is in its own enclosure, with its own fan),
my guess is that the Flyer software, in its present form, really pushes these
drives to their limits and NewTek is pushing me to mine.
