    I just spent about 13 minutes doing what should have taken me less than a minute. There seems to be a definite bug that I discovered. You’ll see it about 8 minutes in. I attempted to slice a bit of audio out of the middle of a separated audio clip, and squeeze the two bits together to fill the hole. I ended up with an unexpected echo as the audio of one clip continued to play past the edit boundary.

    In FCP7, there are many ways to get to your destination, and that’s what I like about it. In FCPX, there seems to be many roads that lead to dead ends, unexpected detours, secret passageways, and occasionally an ied that makes the program crash.

    I can write some of this wasted time off to a steep learning curve (ironic because they wanted to make a program that’s easier to use) but seriously.

    I’ll reconsider after the first upgrade.

    OT: Hey, Mark! My son was just on Evening Magazine last night; (curly haired boy interviewed at the Schack Art Center). Did you edit that?

    Oops… it’s on the quicktime file on my hard drive. Youtube must have lost it. I’m re-encoding it now. Thanks for the heads up.

    I did not Jason. I’m actually taking this week off. It was probably Darrell. I’ll watch it on the dvr.

    Keep watching! We need the viewers 😉

    I’ve recompressed it and re-uploaded it. It’s in a new post.

    Sorry.

    Anyone have the issue with quicktime screen capture and audio with youtube. I was able to upload the .mov file just fine. The video looks good. The audio is gone.

    Original audio is encoded as aac at 44.1. Guess youtube doesn’t like aac.
