DirectRT / MediaLab Online FAQ

Re: Online Functionality

We’ve been working on this for a few years now and have run into a wall or two. For now, we are saying “no” -- that we are no longer planning on having “online” functionality any time soon. At least that’s our “on the record” answer. On the other hand, if we overcome the few remaining issues we may have this functionality in the software next year. For now, we are recommending though that users consider MediaLab and DirectRT to be software primarily used within the lab. Our apologies to those who have been so patient in waiting to test out this functionality.

I'm going to be closing this thread to further posts for now but will re-open it in the case that we find solutions to the outstanding issues we are facing.

-------------------------------------

Online functionality will not immediately be available within the release of our 2010 lineup; however users with a 2010 license will be able to upgrade to a version that does include this feature once we've finished beta testing its components. This system will become available within a public beta this Summer; however we are optionally allowing for users to try out the system within a private beta upon request.

Within this thread you will be able to find information regarding our online system as more details becomes available. If you have any questions regarding these components, please ask them here and we will do our best to respond.

In the posts below you will be able to find our current list of the system's most frequently asked questions. Once the system reaches a public beta, an official help manual will be available to provide further information on this new functionality.
