An interesting and informative event and an opportunity to discuss Déjà vu X directly with Benito. On the not-so-bright side: the video quality of the streaming presentations was awful. Not sure why resolution was so low, but even in full screen I could hardly see anything. The recorded video event looked great, so it must have been a streaming or player problem, but it did ruin the presentations.
I do not have much experience with CAT tools so I was interested to see how an example works. The presenters were both very thorough and it was easy to understand them. The programme itself looks easy enough to master with some practice.
Thank you for this opportunity!
because the other two things you mention are in DVX3

recognized terms are not marked in any way in the source segment

Here is my take on this: I have been in this industry for 29 years and was the guy who first requested Iko and Jochen to create a tool that can remember a sentence that was done at Trados in 1985.

DVX is the most user-friendly of all the tools but badly needs to move away from Access

Pavel: the highlighting of source terms found by AutoSearch is something we're considering
11:52 Apr 8, 2014

but most of the private feedback we've had from individual users is that this is actually not particularly useful and is quite distracting
11:53 Apr 8, 2014

so we'll obviously be making it optional

Both Trados and MemoQ have it as standard, but if you make it available in any form in Deja vu it will be greatly appreciated.

Trados database processing is 10 times faster; and the databases are smaller. The 2 GB limit on Access databases is unacceptable in a modern tool. MemoQ databases stink too - far too slow and unweildy

Pavel: what did Hildreth say?

Please, do not use words like 'stink', your point is clear even without making it too negative.

Hildreth: one of the main reasons why we didn't make the change in DVX3 was to allow for interoperability between DVX2 and DVX3
11:57 Apr 8, 2014
Daniel Benito: 1130548
All
based on our experience when going from DV3 to DVX, and then from DVX to DVX2, it was clear that most people expected to versions to co-exist and interoperate

Back to the point: Deja vu x2's QA is unusable. Explained in detail here: http://www.proz.com/forum/d%C3%A9j%C3%A0_vu_support/230066-djv_x2_areas_to_improve_wishlist-page4.html

Hi Everybody

If a term is entered in the termbase as stand alone and also as part of an expression, the QA will issue a warning if both target terms are not used at the same time in the same segment.

Which makes no sense and is a huge waste of time in a big project.

Pavel: that sounds like a bug... it should only be marked as an error if it was in the Lexicon (which has a higher priority than the TB)

I'll make sure we check this and get this fixed ASAP

Hildreth, SQL Server can handle huge DBs, but is not particularly fast if you want to use it from a desktop application
12:03 Apr 8, 2014
Daniel Benito: 1130548

so it makes sense for a server-based product (where the network itself is a bigger I/O bottleneck)
12:03 Apr 8, 2014

but for a desktop application, something like sqlite is probably more appropriate
