Are you talking about hardware from BMD, AJA, Matrox etc?

So much this. It’s to the point I don’t consider the legitimacy of anything he posts any longer. He’s either blinded by the apple fairy dust past the point of no return, or works in such a small niche that he cant fathom why anyone would need something he does not because his needs are so simple. Completely baffling really, and sort of making these debates not fun anymore once he chimes in.

I cant speak for the other playback devices but BMD’s latest driver is working pretty good so far with X. It was completely unusable before with constant crashes and black flashes..so far new one seems stable.

Nonsensical until your the client paying the bills. No one paying big colorist $$ is going to sit and wait for you to mouse and click your way through a grade when the guy down the street can do it with his panel in a what is probably less than half the time although the results may be similar.

September 5, 2017 at 5:54 amYes, A/V output in FCPX using a video interface is sort of broken.

I think most people on here only post opinions based on their own niches, small or otherwise. It’s up to you to decide the validity and relevance of peoples comments and if you really don’t like someone’s tone or comments then there is always the ‘ignore’ button. People are free to say what they want as long as it abides by COW rules

Yeah, if not to say FUMING! ????
And it’s so telling to see who so happily chimes in.[Neil Goodman] “I don’t consider the legitimacy of anything he posts any longer.”
Aw, gee. Where that’s of such importance to me! ????… ????
And as opposed to your so relevant, experienced, sober input on the subject of FCP X, seeing that you have so much constructive information, experience and facts to bring to the table, unlike me. Yeah, if anyone here is “legit”, then you.[Neil Goodman] “making these debates not fun anymore”
Where you on the other hand are clearly a party and a half, spewing non-stop “fun” left and right. ????
Funny how when you go off on your Avid tangents, you are so quick to point all perturbed to the “DEBATE” in the title of the forum (conveniently ignoring the “FCP” part) for justification if someone has a problem with it… as long as it suits your narrative, all’s good. But only then of course. Such hypocrisy of a truly angry, frustrated individual, yes…
As so often, if one has no real arguments, get personal and go with the jejune, ad hominem “FANBOY!!1!” approach. Works every time. ????????[Michael Gissing] “a control panel make a difference to the ability to get a decent grade”
Still the exact same solipsism. While a panel certainly is more efficient and highly recommendable, if that’s a significant part of one’s work, it changes absolutely zero of the ability of whoever is using it. It’s in principle no different than a scroll-wheel on a mouse for e.g. scrolling a timeline or window. But I guess using an Alexa suddenly makes you a standout filmmaker after using a GoPro for years, too. And even though Tony asked you and you negated, I guess that is in fact what you meant.

Yes, I, too, see the painful irony (and freudian projection) in that. ????

Not accurate. As you told others, read the whole thread.
[Michael Gissing] “So given you are committed to the craft of grading, do you only use the built in board or rely on third party tools to get a result?”
I’m not convinced you can grade shots faster than me with your tools. It’s that whole “show me state” thing.
