Is the client aware that 3D as a format is fast falling out of fashion for all but the largest Hollywood and animated releases? That said- the Dashwood plugin is all you need, it works as advertised:

Not sure what you’re looking for- but couldn’t you just keyframe the movement of screenshots or something?

For that many seats you quality for a 50% volume discount- which is fairly straightforward to install and administer, the code you get should be configurable in such a way as you could create a master disk image for all systems:
For yourself as the end user- as long as the multiple Macs you install X on are not being used simultaneously you should be ok.

That looks like fairly typical H.264 banding- and why involve Adobe Media Encoder when FCPX/Compressor can go right to H.264?

AVCHD is generally a bit more robust during editorial but without seeing the output directly from the camera it’s hard to offer more advice.

Yeah don’t tell that to the transfer house… Don’t forget you’ll also need some sort of capture hardware such as a Blackmagic or AJA Thunderbolt device to capture the incoming HD-SDI from the HDCAM Deck.

All current model Macs work with FCPX. Question is what are you looking for in terms of performance. Currently the MacBook Pro and the higher end iMacs are going to give the best performance with maxed out RAM, GPU RAM, etc.

Premiere Pro CC writes to FCP7’s XML format so the advice you received above is valid.

that’s different- you cannot combine multiple multicam clips. You would need to place all angles into a single one. they need not all be sequential- it should sort them out for example if there are large gaps of time between each. You can also manually add new angles and manually sync them if there is no common audio reference or timecode.

You can always add additional angles- video/stills/audio to any multicam clip. Read the section called Final Thoughts in this article:
