Ultimatte Advantedge in Final Cut

First off, it’s not a universal app, and they are not planning on making it one.
Are you running it on a Mac Pro Intel machine?
Or when you say a Mac Quad Pro, do you mean a PowerMac Quad?
It will run on that machine.

Adobe what? The new Universal versions or the old one CS2 or before?

It is an Intel based Mac Pro 1,1. After Effects version 7.0 and we also have Adobe Photoshop CS2 on it. I gather from your post that it may not load into Final Cut on an Intel based Mac??

The problem is FCP 5.1 and above uses a different plug in structure
than previous versions and Ultimatte isn’t updating their software
to make it work (at least that’s what they told me at NAB, after I bought
their software and sent it back in March because of this).
So it may work in Adobe products, even on an Intel machine
(even though the Ultimatte software is not universal) but it probably
won’t work within FCP 5.1 and above. But like I said, an email
or phone call to Ultimatte will tell you exactly what you need to know.

Thanks for your help. Ultimatte also confirmed this…
