Current OS Software

Below is a list of the current OS Software versions for our various Casablanca units.
We will try to keep this list as current as possible, but it may happen that a particular model with particular options may not be present.

- Avio DVD - Avio Smart Edit 4.1c or OS 1.10a (all new Avio DVD units ship with Smart Edit).
- Arabesk DVD - 2.3a (for Avio Smart Edit) or 1.3f (for OS 1.10a)

- Prestige - Smart Edit 4.1a
- Arabesk - 1.3f or 2.3a

- Kron/Kron PLUS - Smart Edit 4.1a or OS 1.10
- Arabesk DVD - 2.3a or 1.3f

- Solitaire - Smart Edit 4.1c
- Arabesk - 2.3a

- Video Coach - Video Coach 1.2 (Contains its own Smart Edit version - a separate install of Smart Edit is not necessary.)

- PIONEER DVD FIRMWARE - DVD Firmware v1.3
 


All Software CD

MacroSystem is now using a CD-ROM for all current add-on software. This replaces the All Software SmartMedia Card (NOTE: this does not replace the OS, which still must be installed via SmartMedia Card).

Any unit that is running OS 2.5/3.1 (and higher) and has a DVD burner installed will be able to recognize the software on CD. Units not meeting these requirements will still require SmartMedia cards. The process for loading the add-on software remains the same - once the CD is placed in the DVD drive of your Casablanca, click on the Install Product button in the System Settings screen to access add-on software.

New units shipped from Boulder have the CD included. Contact MRG Video, Inc. today to arrange to receive the all software CD.
