    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Long description:

    The Avid Handbook caters to video editors bordering on intermediate who are ready to unleash the full power of the Avid but don't know where to start. Rather than focusing on arcane keystrokes, the book teaches production procedures, the real key for getting a job done. Time saving, shortcuts, and strategies are emphasized, and the author tackles such real-world problems as set up, keeping a facility running, minimizing crashing, and troubleshooting head on. Bayes has helped thousands to avoid downtime and maximize creative time.


    * Intermediate techniques for the Avid Xpress, Avid Xpress DV, Media Composer, and Symphony
    * Emphasis on workflow strategies, configuration, troubleshooting, and administration
    * Helps maximize creative time and eliminate downtime

    "The book doesn't focus on menus or buttons because they change and go out of date very fast. It does, however, deal with the entire editing process and where Avid fits in...This book is filled with common sense." - Editors Guild Magazine
