No, but that was my point. Lightworks is going to be brand new Mac software. It’s going to be a learning curve for a while. At least they mark their efforts as “beta” at this point, though.

I’d say on the latest evidence that Aindreas is turning out to have been the one calm voice of reason all along!!!!

March 14, 2012 at 7:03 pm[Steve Connor] “[Chris Harlan] “Jim, I’m sorry you are going through this. This bloat issue is one of the things that kept me from trying out a few promos with this new version. I know I’ve been critical of the program, but I would really like it to work. It depresses me that this is where things are.
”Can I just mention once again that not everyone is having these issues? I’ve done over 30 projects with it over the last few months and I’ve just finished the first cut of a feature on it with no major problems. 10.03 is certainly not as responsive as 10.02, but for me it’s not so bad that it’s unusable.
“Sure, Steve. I hear that. Given my kind of projects, and the need to make multiple versions, of each project, the bloat issues, alone, would have kept me away with or without Jim’s reporting. I’m just sad he’s going through what he’s going through, and was once again expressing my hope that the program succeeds.

March 14, 2012 at 7:21 pmTO be accurate… Apple has bungled a number of already done software LIKE Logic, Shake and Color. These were not apple software but were purchased by Apple to poach what little bits they could to put into their consumer quality stuff that they have subsequently released. So the conclusion is that you should not be surprised that the big conglomerate Apple cannot write code. They are a big picture company which BIG ideas and have no real skills at writing code. They are trying to figure out the next product to put a lower case i in front of and market to the taffy minded masses.
It must be pointed out that for me, with almost 30 years in editing, I have never EVER had a piece of software released by a company that will not allow the user. IE client, to open older or existing projects. Its just utterly bush league to do that. I know of not one soul who uses FCX ..most are using FCP 7 and myself, although I have 7 fresh in a box, am stilling using 6 because of the need to connect with other suppliers.
If it has taken Apple a whole year to release a 0.3 dot release I doubt you will see anything significant this NAB… maybe nothing.
APPLE is a marketing company who have no ability to write code. They just buy the software they want then decide if it can be marketed.

I am in the middle of a tight deadline but couldn’t resist. Apple’s Motion is an AWESOME program. IMHO

March 14, 2012 at 11:17 pmI have been using AE for eons …very close to the beginning … so I prefer that and its integration with PS and Encore. Motion is OK but I just don’t need to learn another program which is where AE was several years ago. IMHO
