No Longer Supported

V4 dropped the utilities NameIt JoinIt MoveIt and AffixIt. There are good freeware alternatives for most of their tasks at www.versiontracker.com (R-Name is a substitute for NameIt). If you need the utilities anyway, they are still supported in classic mode.

Real Audio nor Real G2 Is supported in V4. It is planned for a future version. In the Meantime you can boot BarbaBatch 3.9 classic to do Real Audio conversions.

The QDesign pro Codecs are no longer supported under OSX. We may bring them back if we get requests for them.
