Video Toaster 4000 Manual pdf
« on: February 20, 2013, 07:43:07 AM »
This is the first time I've seen this and I'm very glad it exists. I see requests for manuals and installation help constantly because most people don't have manuals. We've actually wanted one at the office a few times.

Even cooler is that it's OCR'ed, so it's searchable!

If that goes down I"ll post it somewhere myself, maybe on ftp.newtek.com or something.

Wait, do you work for NewTek?


Yes, I'm a software engineer on the video side.

NewTek can't host it.

Even though someone took copyrighted material, reproduced it and distributed it, there could be some legal gotcha in some country that causes the pdf itself to be copyrighted by the person who created it. (maybe they added or changed something, who knows)

NewTek can't take that risk for no benefit, it's not worth it.

My personal (not NewTek's) opinion is to mirror the heck out of it and they aren't going to waste their time and money to go after someone for an ancient users manual.

Pyro mailed me the binder and I scanned it.


You guys did an awesome job on it, I was impressed.

Monday I'll take another stab at it.

Thanks
