dont use the most current drivers.. 10.0 and even 10.1 are screwed for Media Composer .
Desktop video 9.9.3 is the best working driver blackmagic has put out. download that one and you should be good to go.

on both PC & Mac – just upgraded to 7.03 as well. Didnt notice a difference tween it and 6.5
pretty solid overall
although trimming is still pretty clunky on both a nitris dx and blackmagic, something i hoped was gonna be fixed in 7.x

[Michael Hancock] “In addition, if you do a particularly complicated trim (say asymmetrical trimming on multiple layers) and you go back to editing but need to make some further adjustments, you can ALT+TrimMode and it will remember your most recent trim setup. This alone can save a ton of time when you’re fine tuning a complicated edit.

Just have to uncheck the link button in the timeline and you can move the clips independently of each other, that’s the default behavior in MC. Unless I’m misreading your situation.

but what good is it w/o a legitimate delivery methods?
4k Tvs still away’s away from being affordable/ common place.
Broadcast Tv is not gonna flip anytime soon.
The internet isnt fast enough to stream/downlaod it in general.
Even high end Studio features are cutting at offline resolutions so really whats the point yet?

Someone mentioned Avid playing catch up, which is for the most part true, EXCEPT background transcoding now in MC7 works way better than Apples implemation, in that it actually keeps going in the background while you work, and doesn’t seem to heavily bog down while it’s going. Just one area where avids tech is leading. Also nothing feels better than avids timeline and trim tool for doing actual creative cutting, IMO.
I use it at work in an 88 bay facility in L.A. and honestly, this place will never change. The word final cut is a curse word here, let alone premiere, and yea most of it is plain ignorance but that’s just how it is and I’m sure the other major networks here, are the same. I also use it at home for the odd freelance job although I usually have to talk people out of using final cut 7. Premiere or Fcpx still haven’t come up in a paid work scenario.

[Aindreas Gallagher] “Oh my god when is this going to end. I can’t stand looking at that mr. incredible avatar anymore either. I’m reading this endless bilge pipe of drivel and staring at that grinning mr incredible and the whole thing is turning into nails across the blackboard at this point.
Tim Wilson if this is you playing with our tiny minds, stop, I’m begging you please stop.”
honestly, once my favorite forum on the internet to learn from real people, making real content,providing real insight, and tangible problem solving, has now turned into a place i barely check because this guy Branner. A know it all, thats knows nothing, so annoying.
We get it, you have a hard on for FCPX and Apple can do no wrong, all those that oppose are idiots. Anything else?

I’m not sure how if he is working, how he gets anything done. He’s literally on top of every thread, all day long. It’s getting pretty tiresome.

What’s to say other software besides fcpx won’t be able to achieve similiar results on the tube once optimized?

[kim krause] “our whole department has recently transitioned to fcpx and we are one of the major broadcasters in the country so from my perspective i would have to say that makes it pretty darn professional……why would kevin use fcpx for home movies when he has avid? seems like a rather dumb statement to me…maybe avid is too complicated for using on home movies! maybe the simplicity of fcpx is its strongest feature….maybe fcpx allows him to be more creative……thats like saying you use garage band for your podcasts when you have protools or logic sitting on your machine…..huh?”
which broadcaster? What type of department within that braodcaster? and what platform were you on before?
