Feeling: Happy to see a new version.
Noticed: Scopes form visibility is not saved between sessions.

Changes since last alpha release (Build 452):

* Fixed the double spin boxes in the clip settings frame to no longer steal focus and change values when using the scroll wheel over them to scroll the entire window.
* Fixed scroll focus issues on spin boxes and combo boxes fixed.
* Fixed scopes appearing with a zero height on startup in some cases.
* Fixed bug where frame number/timecode edit fields on the Viewer couldn’t be edited.
* Fixed handling of slugs when exporting XML/EDL from the menu.
* Make sure look and framing settings update properly in certain cases after pausing in the video player.
* Turn off/gray-out in the scopes when coming out of monitor out mode.
* Make video player window active after double clicking on a clip.
* More robust handling of decode mode changes from the viewer. Fixes random crash.

I guess I missed the part (at red.com) that this was a beta.
Ive lost connection to my BOB via DV-HMDI.

...I installed the BOB firmware packaged with rr1.4.7 and go...

Weird I got it going. All I had to do was hook up the BOB to a different display (HDMI to DVI cable into Sony plasma). Then disconnect that and try the Dell U2711 LCD via HDMI and its good
Seems to me that both our MX and RR systems have the same traits (oddities?).
We had to do this after recent updates to MX, just so we can get our SmallHD DP6 to work again.

Like I said, weird.
