    How about “The Cutting Debates.”

    Yes, it does seem like there should also be an “Adobe Premiere or Not: The Debate” and ” AVID Media Composer or Not: The Debate.”

    Perhaps it is time to change the name to: “Which editing software should I choose, or not” or something of that sort.

    Not with FCPX at this time.

    I have a Matrox MXO2LE I use with FCP7.

    Definitely snappier here. No lags. Title interactions especially seem more snappy.

    “I have multiple backups of my projects on multiple discrete drives. When I mount any of those backup drives, X running on my main machine shows me the new drive and all the projects on it as if they were again local.”

    And just to be absolutely clear, some or all of those were backed up independently (not from inside) of FCPX?

    Thanks Bill, I would be backing up the exact file/folder structure from my working FCPX drive.

    I have heard that FCPX expects a unique file ID that changes when you copy that same file to another drive such that when copied back (even if the same exact file/folder naming/hierarchy) FCPX does not recognize it as the same file… but I am not sure of this.

    I did. But also wondered if I was missing something. Thanks for confirming this.

    Select a clip in the timeline, change spatial conform to none, make it a compound clip, then change transform to something less than 100% (also notice where the transform box outline is when you enable the transform effect in the viewer), apply any effect (as far as I can tell; but I used Gaussian Blur as one example). Notice how applying an effect crops the clip to the transform box outline in the viewer which is not 100% of the clip size when none is applied to the nested clip (inside the compound clip).

    Effect disabled:

    Effect enabled:

    I can stick with fit rather than none for compound clips, but it would be nice to be able to reference image size relative to the source rather than the timeline in certain circumstances.

    I have used Compressor 3 to compress using Matrox Max while FCPX is open.
