In the biz for ten years and just heard

In the end, there's nothing for Red to do. If Avid still can't handle QuickTime or AVI files properly, that's Avid's problem.

That's my thinking as well... REDCINE will allow for the creation of DNxHD files (or should, provided the DNxHD codec pack is installed). The only way there could be better or more direct support for RED within Avid software is if native REDCODE file support was added. So either way, the ball is in Avid's court on this one.

Well ... considering their CEO stepped down and they just fired 150 folks mostly from pro video - and their market-share is SHRINKING monthly - maybe they will get their religion quickly - but ... the writing is on the wall ...

Also, Red has stated that there will be an AVI version of the codec.

That is incorrect as far as I know. Where has this been stated?
