It really is a neat program, You do have to get out of your mind set to wrap your head around it. But My company has tried for 3 days to get it to read a Video signal from a external deck, and we can’t,even with black magic cards (we got it to read firewire 800 though HDV deck) . Witch is a bummer. I personally don’t care for the “Event” organization, similar to Iphoto and iMovie. But thats just me. This guy has answers….but they don’t make sense why cant you save as? why do you to Duplicate project? (witch Btw takes ALL the Media from the current project and Copy it to the new place to duplicate the project to anyway I digress. the main point is its Easier for a person who knows little about editing to jump in and use it, People like me who want more control just dont get it in x-FCP. Feels like the program is on Auto[pilot. But it really is a neat program, it just doesn’t meet any of my needs at this point in time.
