Wow 0 – strange.

and strange there is no response. maybe everyone is on holiday?

Anyway – After years of editing film and video from real razor blades and 1/2 rtr drop-syncing…

to FCP 1.25 and on and Premiere before it was even Pro and then the amazing FCPX.

Resolve was easy to pick up after watching an hour tutorial… enuf that I know I know very little yet what is important is the over workflow is right there and knowable.

So if you got the right editor – they should easily be able to be compete in Resolve.

Oh, I hate when stuff like that happens on an upgrade.

Did you copy the Library first or is it a 100 TB video library .. so not practical to duplicate aka backup you Library?

Are there some small Libraries you can attempt first?

[Patrick Donegan]

And maybe you need to use Proxy files.

It’s been a long time …

Do you have the Activity Monitor running so you can see the CPU usage and the memory pressure?

Do you have 2 clips … test … then add another clip and test?

There could be a time where it starts to take time.

Are these files all transcoded for Pro Res? Pro Res is supposed to be smoother in operation than other codecs.

Has ANYONE been able to burn a DVD-Video with FCPX or Compressor?

[Patrick Donegan]

wow – does no one here know about the Sony A6500?

[Patrick Donegan]

I wonder if there was a little power glitch and that a UPS could help?

A quick google should tell you if Soundtrack Pro 3.0 reads MIDI files.

And I am sure that GarageBand reads MIDI files.
