Hi Nick,
One of the advantages FCP had was that you could alter the source TC,
You could automate this using your beloved Quick Keys.– Andreas

A little anecdote about Apple’s secrets.
Some time before the first version of QT was released MacroMind and Apple invited several people from all over the world for a conference about “chances of new media” (or something like that. It took place in China Town Holiday In San Francisco. I saw it as good chance to stay a bit longer in SF and attended even the long (13 h) flight is always boring.
The discussion forums where always accomplished by several public stage shows. One of these was Apple showing QT first time to anybody outside Apple. QT was regarded as a little technology revolution. The show was fantastic and because of the many AAhs and OOhs several hoel guest and people from the Lobby joined.
Later that day Apple contacted some attendees of the conference (including me) to sign a NDA to get hold of the technology for implementing it into our software.
The NDA said that we were not allowed to talk about it and not allowed to show it till release. That seemed to be totally ridiculous after the public show. But I did sign. The running gag between those developers involved was “Sorry I can’t tell or show – but collect a few hundred people and I’ll do)For me it was not the end of this little funny anecdote. That time I was working for Apple as demonstrator and whatever. Some time after the SF event I worked for Apple on CeBit fair (the biggest show of it’s kind worldwide). This expo was a nightmare for all people working there: booth working hours 8 am to 8 pm – even though there were famous big parties – no fun and bad money.
One day at the end of shift a women from Apple Europe collected a croup of the people working for Apple on the booth and offered us to see a revolutionel new Apple technology coming up soon, To see it we have to sign an NDA. After 12 hours of work I wasn’t really interested but really deserved for a Bratwurst and cold beer, so I answered: No need, I know what it is, I’ve seen it and I want Bratwurst, beer and a cigarette. And went out.
About a 20 minutes later the Apple women picked me up at one of the numerous takeaways around the hall. Kind of breathless she asked: Were you serious about that what you said earlier? Me: Yes, especially about the beer and the cigarette. She: What is that what you’ve seen. Me: Quicktime. She: You know about it? Me: I’ve worked with it. She: you must help us!. Me: After the beer is finished. And btw what do you pay? She: Haha.
Finally I went there – a small conference room (with as said above not enough people ;.) – and finished the presentation with success.This was the start of a long friendship with the QT development team and me – not with Apple Europe.
Hopefully a little entertainment here.

[Robin S. Kurz] Aside from the fact that I didn’t see anything in Focus’ list of apps that aren’t on the App Store, other than maybe LivePlay and a filter, so there you go.
That’s a list Apple published. Let’s wait for the book.

The article itself is just a marketing article about a feature cut on FCPX seen for other NLE sites as well.
So nothing exiting – though some are happy about it as shows Apple cares about pros.
As long nobody has seen the movie it’s hard to say whether it’s a good or bad cut. And even this will be subjective.
Probably Mikes book will be a better in depth reading.

Just for the records – in case some somebody else will run into a similar problem.
DTD validation failed. (Element transition content does not follow the DTD, expecting (filter-video? , filter-audio? , (marker | chapter-marker | rating | keyword | analysis-marker)* , metadata? , reserved?), got (filter-video filter-audio spine )
Element transition content does not follow the DTD, expecting (filter-video? , filter-audio? , (marker | chapter-marker | rating | keyword | analysis-marker)* , metadata? , reserved?), got (filter-video filter-audio spine )
)The first underlined part shows the element where the error occurs. The parts between this and the second underlined part show the options or what is expected (though they are vague). The second underlined part starting with “got” shows what is found.
So in this case you have to search for a transition element which includes “spine”.If FCPX creates a XML like Tangier’s you should file a bug to Apple.

Hi Taylor,
It might be not that easy as described.
Feel free to send me the XML and I’ll have a look (I work with XMLs a lot of times)

This means that FCPX double check when importing the XML it found an error for a transition.
So the XML which should be imported has an error at a transition and some of the possibilyties of what is expected for this transition.
To learn more look for FInalCutProXXML.pdf. It’s not thatneasy to understand if you are new to XML.– Andreas

Sorry I’m pretty late. Fortunately Bill was so kind to answer and explain.
Below a little (maybe not complete) table to compare subtitle handling FCP 7 versus FCP X in the current version 10.1.x.
Earlier versions had less features.
As Bill said all this search and related stuff is way faster and comfortable in FCP X with even more options you ever had in FCP 7.
One possible issue with FCP X is that you can’t have favorites any more. But that one for subtitles is not a real issue. It can be a little pain for news or similar where you will have a lot of lower thirds.

@ Bill: thanks for the kind words above.
