I work in a MC 7.0.6 ISIS environment but I sometimes use my MBP (rinning MC8.5.1) to process some additional material. So last week I started a new 1080/50i project in the laptop and injested some footage. I later opened that project in my 7.0.6 system and recieved a prompt indicating that the project couldn't be opened because it was created in a newer version of MC.
I have never seen that error before and always belived that MC projects were backwards compatible - at least on the project level. Sure, sequences with newer effects might not be compatible but I've never had a project that flat wouldn't open.
Anyone else run into this . . ? In some circumstances, it could be quite a problem . . .
