    [Jeremy Garchow] ” I seem to be able to, but maybe I’ve been holding it wrong this whole time.”

    Try edit on one in and two outs (yes, I know about Shift).

    [Jeremy Garchow] “Duel system, meaning you can’t get the dual audio back out (or you want to reconnect back to dual audio outside of FCPX)?”

    I want to sync on claps. I want to use a boom, several lavs and a production mix in multichannel BWF however I like without tagging each channel in each clip “boom”, “good guy” “bad guy” and “mix” first. I want all talk of “metadata” and “relational database” to stop until real metadata that comes with those BWF is actually treated by the app as metadata.

    [Jeremy Garchow] “So, what is it exactly that Apple FCPX engineers don’t understand about editing?”

    Three point editing. Replace at playhead. Dual system workflow. And generally they don’t understand that editing is not about what happens after what but about what happens when.

    [Craig Seeman] “I saw Diana Weynand do an all too brief explanation of her workflow on a doc she’s producing in which she named and organized clips in Finder to take advantage of FCPX import Folders as Keyword Collections. “

    Nice. There was an NLE that stored reel name in the folder name and TC in file name. There is a lot more of the moronic solutions in the abandoned NLE junkyard for Apple to dig up.

    [Bill Davis] “Now, hardly anyone but the clueless yells about the “magnetic timeline” unless everyone discovered you can turn it off with a trivial “P” keystroke.”

    I discovered “P” keystroke after using FCPX for five minutes. After six minutes of using FCPX I discovered “P” dosen’t turn magnetic timeline off.

    [Bill Davis] “Nobody understood the magnetic timeline. nobody understood the Event Browser, nobody understood the relational database, nobody understood connected clips, compound clips”

    With this statement you insult too many people.

    [Matt Campbell] “Thanks everyone. I think we’re going to run some tests. I’ll try Cimena Tools but isn’t that going to change the speed too. And will that speed change be noticeable/detectable to the eye?”

    24 to 23.98 conform in Cinema Tools will slow the footage 0.1%. It won’t be noticeable but if the duration of the show must be exact a frame or two might have to be chopped off here or there.

    [Walter Soyka] “Do you need OS X, or do you need application support?”

    I need things like QuickLook plugin for DPX and ARRIRAW files and the ability to search for timecode in them in Spotlight

  • I always wondered why wouldn’t BMD stick a couple of GPU’s into Multibridge.

  • Export 10-bit Uncompressed QuickTime movies. Ask your VFX guys to render finished shotes in 10-bit Uncompressed QuickTime movies.

  • Conversion from YCbCr to 8-bit RGB is lossy. Conversion via Export>Using QuickTime Conversion is even more lossy too. Find someone who can do VFX on ProRes clips.

  • [Tim Wilson] ” FCPX LOOKS and ACTS like it was made by Apple.”

    I was taken aback by the statement first. Then I thought it over and realized that Apple abandoned its own HIG years ago so in that light a mess of rejected ideas from the failed NLE’s graveyard can fit “made by Apple” fine. Still I bet no demo of FCPX work in progress to The Steve ever included secondary storylines. No way. Heads would roll.
