Q. When I press Start Shot from the History tab, the button doesn't turn red and the shot gets recorded under the MovieSlate icon instead of in Script Dept. How do I make sure my shots are logged as Script Dept shots?

Q. When I'm watching my Teradek video feed on my script PDF, I can tap the camera button to grab a still that lands right on my script page. But to put a still into a Note for my Facing Pages, I have to leave the PDF, tap the Video menu, and capture from there. Is there a way to grab a still for a Note without leaving my script page while we're rolling?

Q. Post is asking me to send the Editor's Log in scene order rather than day order. Is there a way to sort or re-order the Editor's Log so it's grouped by scene?

Q. When I bring my MovieSlate markers into Avid Media Composer, every scene's locators start at 00:00:00 instead of the actual timecode we filmed, and post says they don't match. How do I get the true timecode into the markers?
