ARC Installer Help

Please pardon what might be a dumb question - I'm an Analogue man in a Digital age... I downloaded the ARC Installer.msi from the site (basic model from the LH side of the download page). Clicked "Run" but when the DL finishes I get an error message telling me I need to download Microsoft Virtual Studio or similar program. Click on the...

Recorder Error

Great feature, if I can get it to save. What happens is when I record movements, then when I go to save the project, an error pops up that states: There was an error generating the XML document.

For instance, would you say its in your top 10 list of most handy hacks or just something to do if you must? I have my camera wired for power off the EZ-B but not switchable from there and I find...
