FCPX Database to get even better

[Craig Seeman]

You KNOW that if the update hasn’t been released by NAB the big rumor will be Apple discontinuing FCPX and Motion.

[David Mathis]

Oh no! Not that. It is way past time for an update.

[Oliver Peters]

Actually there’s no indication that this purchase has anything to do with the OS or any Apple app. The article speculates that it could be to shore up Apple’s servers.

Yes, because not enough consumers are buying X; iMovie seems good enough and the price is right. Meanwhile no big X breakthrough in pro circles.

So if no update at NAB, possible to think, however paranoid it may sound, that iMovie will get inherit some of the simpler X features, be renamed iMovie Pro and FCPX allowed to drop off the map.

And that, my friends, is editing a nutshell.

I’m just kidding I have no idea what I’m talking about.

Well, except for the BBC News, the Tour de France IBC work, the recent NBC announcement, the Honda Ad, and that pesky major Hollywood movie.

Except for *that stuff* (plus a thousand other pro projects in process all over the world), then yep, no “breakthrough in pro circles” i guess.

3 nanodollars… sounds like compensation from a CraigsList ad.

I believe that “Big Breakthrough” means the ability to suck my company dry of yearly support since 1996; drop some key hardware support from future scope;and be late for the party in the 4K race, whilst almost shutting itself down due to bad business practices.
Nope I dont think FCPX will ever live up to that legendary status 😛

I’m being facetious, Bill. X obviously is going fine, and the lack of constant updates should NOT be a sign it will be abandoned. I probably means simply that they don’t see it as a pro-only app to be tweaked every few months; it’s working well for the user base. And the constant inflow of third party apps and plug-ins is in some ways the updates everyone is looking for.
