That might be costly but invaluable in your situation …search for EDL-X on your App store

Avid was an offline NLE , the first EDL generator .

Quite logical ,
sorry I missed that

AS Bret says
for using your optimized media but I always prefer to grade on the original camera files…
Clipexporter is more for VFX thus truncating clips, sections of a timeline for sending to compositing software.

DVR can’t acces media inside a bundle but if original (none optimized media) is available in a separate folder and your metadata is clean ( TC , Reel , angle etc ) , DVR should reconnect to it correctly, if the original media is preloaded in the DVR media pool prior to importing the fcpxml file in the edit panel.

Hi David
You don’t need “clipexporter” for this purpose… only matching version of FCPX and DVR. The fcpxml file is very well interpreted by the corresponding software FCPX 10.1.4 -> DVR 11.1.3 . This will do a pretty good job as long as media is outside library and available for both sofwares.

… it does however a great job displaying the scopes in Davinci Resolve for color correction 🙂

This is often due to TC conflicts : when some TC are identical you need a reel # or reel name to differentiate them.

i must admit we have now 26 x FCPs3 + MC 7 running together on MacOS and everything is fine.

I agree with you that the type of recent changes done to the OSxOperating system are henceforth more complicated and that major version changes should always be done via a clean install.

In fact, what is paradoxical to my previous post, it is now the FCPX – DavinciResolve work station that are on separated computers.

the time are changing

Hi Oliver

We had an AVID system very early in the 1990’s first codec was AVR-1 only, then updated to 5 Film composer in 1992 … These computer were a dedicated machines at our facility, all other editing suite were CMX … First time i ran a “FinalCutpro” was on my brand new “Blue and White PowerMac G3” it was love at firs sight so in 2004 We installed 15 “Final Cut pro” plus “Media composers”. Trouble started creeping in as soon as AVID software was installed on the same Power Mac G5, so this was the beginning of a double boot strategy.

I personally believe AVID had very good solo software but it is also rapidly aging and it usually takes them quite a long time to stabilize new features. ( ex: AMA, EUCON drivers )

You can understand that now every time, i have troubles my first reaction is to look that way.

Cheers

Hi Oliver

You really scared me with that one since I had upgraded to 10.9.2 hoping to get better NFS performance…

The good news: I not getting this at all , I have just imported a few surround WAV files and everything is perfect for me on rMBP very clean system (only proapps) the wav form take more time to draw with hatched animation but then everything is perfect!

I hope we are not going back to the time we needed to run multiple boot machines to run different NLE, I understand from reading your great articles and blog that you are running many NLE on the same machine…

All the best
