[Craig Seeman]That this is only a 0.3 release seems to speak that Apple has a lot in mind that it considers much bigger than this.

Version numbers generally don’t mean anything these days, so I wouldn’t read too much into that.

I never said it would be easy, but it’s certainly not impossible. And there may be mistakes, but that’s going to happen whenever you move a project from one NLE to another.

Just because it “guesses” wrong, doesn’t mean that it’s a problem. If you can import a project and it play back right, even if the foundation isn’t exactly as you would have laid it if you’d used FCPX in the first place, it’s still a success in my book.

[Mark Morache]Offering users an incomplete conversion might have created just as much complaining from the ranks, or perhaps more.

Yeah, can you imagine if they’d done that with Final Cut Pro as a whole?

Looks like a very nice update. With the ability to finally get projects out of FCPX, I’m more willing to give it the good ‘ole college try.

Now, if Apple will refresh the Mac Pro in an impressive fashion, I think that will be a good statement towards their commitment towards the professional market. They need to at least make an announcement before the end of NAB for it to be useful, though.

Apple’s explanation for not including it was marketing speak for “we didn’t care enough to actually try.”

Must be magic to all those people who said it couldn’t be done because of the incredibly complex and nuanced way that FCPX dealt with the intentions behind your video data…

[Richard Herd]Why don’t the workers unionize?

It’s illegal to do so in China.

[Steve Connor]How does FCPX impose one workflow?

Seriously? Because you only have that magnetic timeline and no option to turn on a second viewer. That’s pretty significant right there.

[Christian Schumacher]Mr. Cook is in charge for a long time now, many years before Mr. Jobs passed away last year.

Technically, but I think the jury is still out on how Apple will move forward from here, now that Steve Jobs has passed

I just finished a short film on the GH2 using a very high-bitrate hack and didn’t have any major issues.

Here’s some B-roll of Austin, TX that I shot with the Quantum Hack (v7).
