The J key will play backwards. If you tap the J key several times it will play backwards faster and faster. The L key is the play key but if you keep tapping the L key it will play in fast forward mode. The K key is the stop or pause key. Most NLE make use of the JK and L keys in this way. I hope this helps you achieve what you want.

Do you want the timeline to play in a fast forward mode?

[Oliver Peters] ” However, despite Bill’s accolades about Apple development, I don’t think anyone in the “A” companies can hold a candle to what BMD is doing with Resolve. That development speed puts them all to shame, Apple included.”
Hey, that’s my line : )
I am not saying in another two years DR will have 60% of the market. I am saying the upgrade for DR this years was impressive. I can only hope it forces the competition to bring their A-Game to NAB 2018. If DR has another major update at NAB 2018 and Premiere Pro’s updates are mediocre than I will have to call a spade a spade. I can only hope BMD develops a graphics/photo editing program.

While I agree with this, I would point out that there are other markets Apple serves outside of entertainment where the new Mac Pro is of interest. CAD, engineering, analysis, etc. In fact, probably more so than entertainment.”I see Macs and PC used for video and printing production. I used to edit on a Mac myself. On the other hand I have operate CNC lathes and mills and I have worked in a few different machine shops as well as attended college classes for skilled trades. All computers were PC based. I have not experienced one Mac ever for CAD work at any machine shop or fabrication facility. Not one Mac was ever used at any of the colleges I attended running CAD. I am not just talking CAD I am also talking CAM (computer aided manufacturing). I don’t see Macs for engineering at all (not one). They may be out there in the world of engineering but I highly doubt they are used more in the world of engineering than in the world of audio, video and graphic design. I see both Mac and PC for audio, video and graphic design at colleges and in the workforce but I have never seen a Mac for CAD/CAM?CAE at any college I attended or any machine shop I worked at. Some of that engineering software can cost thousands of dollars. I know some of the programs will not work on a Mac.

I’m sure processing or rendering out really massive layered rasters still requires all the processor grunt you can hook up to. So access to a shop style rig for mastering is maybe smart if you want to do big projects – but the editing really doesn’t seem to be a very big deal much anymore.”Unless you do over the shoulder editing for clients who want to see 6K or 8K at full resolution. Who knows in another 10 years we may have true hologram editing systems that will once again make me invest in a desktop computer until the mobile devices catch up.

I used to edit with full tower computers until about 2002. In 2002 I started using mid towers. In 2005 I sold all my desktop computers and only used a laptop until about 2006. In 2006 HDV started to become popular so I invested in a desktop computer since the laptops really could not compete with the desktops for editing HD. For SD my laptop worked OK. Since 2006 we have seen AVCHD and Red One R3D files become popular. I think I will build my last desktop computer in another 5-6 months and in another 3-4 years from now I imagine the Tablet PCs will have 8 and16 core CPUs. There will not really be a need for a graphics card so why not get something really small and portable (tablet instead of a laptop). I plane on using a MS Surface Pro (or knock off) as my main editing system in another 3-4 years from now. I just don’t think the tablet PC or laptops can keep up with my desktop as of now. That should change soon now that AMD is offering some serious competition for Intel. I wonder if other people plan on using a Windows tablet as their main NLE in another 2-3 years from now?

My Intensity Shuttle (USB 3.0) does not have this problem. Are you on a Mac or PC?

It is the round IRIS transition in Adobe Premiere. You opt for 4 circles.

[Bill Davis] “Not at all. I’m simply saying that there are likely between 20,000 and a million users who can reasonably conceive that it would be cool for an new NLE to have stuff like “a mixer” or “multicam” or “match frames” they’ve had a decades to become accustomed to – and that focusing on THOSE types of things should be a priority.
There are just a rediculously small number of people in a position to conceive and implement something like in-NLE range based tagging, vertically magnetic timelines, or Roles.
One lots of companies can pull off.
The others? Extremely few.”
I know you used FCPX since day. Having said that what good is ranged based tagging, magnetic timelines and roles if you do work for broadcast with closed captioning? Some things that have been around for 20 years are still needed for some people’s workflow. What is the Apple counterpart for Adobe Story and how well does the metadata integrate with FCPX? How well does FCPX’s counterpart for Adobe’s Anywhere work for you? You may consider things like multi-cam or closed captioning small and trivial but for people that need those features for their work flow they might consider them more important than a magnetic timeline. For some Adobe’s integration with AE is more important and perhaps more practical than the magnetic timeline. For others VR might be more important than a magnetic timeline. Apple should want to add as many features to help streamline all of the user’s workflows (within reason). You should want and expect that from Apple as well.

[Jeremy Garchow] “I don’t know how much more real time than editing the scene on the back of a process trailer can get!”
A live broadcast perhaps?
You can edit using laptop with most NLE. If you want to edit Red One R3D files at full 4K resolution a laptop might not work.
