Yeah, I’ve got TC on all sources (well soon I will) as I’ve manually synced everything. Shot with a 7D with a bunch of different settings to TC was dodgy out of the box. Being it’s a music-video timeing can be a little off at times also and you want to slip takes 1-2 frames for better sync which again is quite nice with a multi-track timeline.

Yeah, the issue I have is that multi-cam isn’t practical for the shot we’ve done. I guess I could sort of make it work but visually seeing “I have media in sync here, here and here” is better for my workflow at the moment. Given a 38 layer timeline isn’t optimal either, it’s quite efficient in the end. Now that I think of it, it would be sweet with a cross-mix of both these features – i.e. being able to view a multicam clip as a timeline and vice-versa.

I’ve been wanting the same tool for a music video I’m editing at the moment. Will def. look into sequenceLiner.

I was going to say the same as the above poster. There isn’t a codec called ProRes LT NTSC DV. You have ProRes, and different flavors of it, and you have DV. In all the resolutions I’ve work with ProRes in also I’ve never seen compression artifacts like you’re experiencing. So the question is probably how you are encoding this media and perhaps from what.

Mocha is brilliant for controlled stabilization of shots.

Not sure if the old “8-bit only” in Windows is still bugging ProRes (i.e. QT on Windows would read the files as 8-bit video instead for 10-bit or 12-bit). But asaik, ProRes reads fine in AVID from the last few years – even timecode I believe.

Later versions of AVID can read ProRes just fine I think. I’d give that a shot if DNxHD isn’t a solution.

Cool, as I thought it worked.

I’ll correct that – most people I work with, be it production or post production. A large part of it is also due to the fact all TV copies are filebased in Sweden. But, as I’ve stated, we’re still dependent on tape-capture our selves but tape for us is rare compared to filebased workflows.
Given this is my daily life everyone has a different one. FCP 7s current strength is that it support a very wide varity of workflows given the all filebased one can be questioned sometimes. Still – as you say – tape is required in a “pro” environment but as people have stated, perhaps this requirement doesn’t nessacarily need to come from the NLE. The NLE however has to be able to communicate with systems that solve this problem – i.e have a healthy i/o structure (OMF / AAF / XML / QT etc) and / or a stable plug-in architecture that enables third parties to solve the problem.

I don’t mind the new browser – it seems quite awesome. I just hope you can have that AND a player / canvas or source / monitor on top of that. The best of two worlds, no?
The metadata centric workflow is good but I’m waiting with anticipation how they sort multiple-sequence projects and multiple-projects for that matter. This is something FCP handles very flexible today (given confusing for new users perhaps).
