[Craig Seeman] “others who seem to be vested in ridiculing the software.”

And quite a few of those are the faces I see at the top of the page. Gentlemen, with all due respect cause I know how badly you must feel, but how much more needs to be said? We all get it. It’s iMovie. It sucks. Apple blew it. Can we move along now?

I followed another thread with the blue screen issue. Try logging in under a different account and see if that fixes your issue.

A method I used to use was to crop the image so only something white is visible and use the vectorscope to adjust white balance. Very accurate.

Exactly what do you think my argument was? That X should work for everyone? Sorry if I made that impression. I merely was annoyed someone who says he is an expert can espouse his credentials and label this “junk” and we’re supposed to take his word based on one day with the software. If he had listed some reasons for his evaluation I probably would have kept my mouth shut.

I agree this is not for everyone. I’ve spent two weeks with X and am still learning it’s in and outs, or lack thereof 🙂
Apple made many dumb moves introducing this, but I’m trying to separate that from what the software is capable of accomplishing. And so far, from the perspective of someone who has learned to operate more edit systems both linear and nonlinear than most everyone on this forum, I find more to like than dislike.

Yes I do think in this case it takes more than a day of playing with it to understand it. And if you don’t truly understand it you can’t properly evaluate it. If you think I’m a thick idiot, read Oliver Peters review where he spent over two weeks and came up with a much better evaluation than “its junk”

You spend one day and you decide it’s junk? Nice. Very thorough evaluation I’m sure.

[Scott Bellefeuille] ” You can also keyword those ranges if you’d like but just keywording them doesn’t give you the same functionality for subclipping or marking and retaining in and out points as easily.
“

I’m a little confused. When you keyword a range, when you look at that clip using the keyword, isn’t the clip just the range you selected?
