The answer is in the question, no?
[Leon Zandman] “create a mask that perfectly isolates him, so that [you] can duplicate the original footage and put that person in front of the fake video that’s supposedly playing on the TV”
… then keyframe. I.e. rotoscope.

I would use Font Book to reset your fonts to the default set and see if that helps.

[Tim Wilson] “Also, none of them mention 30 minutes.”
Right. I just made that part up. As I always do I guess.
https://www.samsung.com/au/pdf/IP68.pdf
But then I’m still trying to figure out how any of this even remotely qualifies as a “Final Cut Pro X Debate“… but oh well. Not my sandbox.
[Tim Wilson] “Well, and this,…”
He’s gotta do something to keep it from exploding.

[Andy Field] “What is amazing that FCP 7 Legacy still works on EVERY OS update through Yosemite”
Through to Sierra, yes. Seeing how long Quicktime has been deprecated, I highly doubt it will go beyond that. It may even die with a Sierra update.

[Dominic Deacon] “… if there was a point to it.”
*double-take* I’m sorry?
[Dominic Deacon] “… it’s now taking up the charging socket. I fall asleep every night with the phone charging and headphones in my ears.”
That being your point, but oh well. And never mind that I said “one of many”. There are endless other ones out there that are cheaper.
[Dominic Deacon] “It’s direct competitor the Samsung 7 has an IP68 rating.”
Dare I ask if you know what that actually means? IP67 means (in terms of liquids) “Immersion up to 1m”. IP68 stands for “Immersion beyond 1m”. Sounds great, huh? Because when I see IP68 I actually think “up to 10m, maybe even 50m“, which, at least from my personal experience, is about average for equipment that the manufacturer actually went to the trouble of getting whatever it is IP68 rated.
What does Samsung in fact say? “… they’re water resistant to a maximum depth of 1.5m” Wow. A full 50cm more. Okay. I guess you got me there.
Apple doesn’t have a time limit on that immersion depth by the way. Samsung does, FWIW.
[Dominic Deacon] “No idea. Don’t use ’em. I’m not here to fly the flag for Samsung.”
Then I think you need to note when any and all of your questions are purely rhetorical. There’s always Google, too.

[Michael Gissing] “So angry Robin.”
LOL… you interpretation of the (obviously!) “angry“, nay, furious emoticon in my post, that you were even clever enough to leave in the quote, is truly brilliant. 😀 (<— look, I’m crying!)

[Dominic Deacon] “I fall asleep every night with the phone charging and headphones in my ears. Have to buy another adaptor I guess and not lose that one too…”
Or you could just get (one of many) what’s been around for years?
https://apple.co/2ciGvxm[Dominic Deacon] “less water resistant than many android phones with the headphone jack.”
Do tell. Which phone that you’d actually want to carry around in public, fit in your pocket and use all day has a higher rating than IP67? And exactly what do you intend on doing with YOUR PHONE that you need it (completely unusable) under more than 1m of water?? Never mind that the iPhone 6 and 6S already offer that without being officially rated, let alone that if it were rated higher, then you couldn’t possibly have anywhere near the same quality audio over its stereo speakers, aside from having to make the phone even more expensive. Things that are in fact more relevant to 99.999% of owners/buyers rather than the 0.001% that are just trying to impress their friends at the pub without practical rhyme nor reason. Ergo: red herring if I’ve ever heard one. Unusable and ultra-fugly… but hey, I can drop it in my beer!
And then there’s this: https://bit.ly/2cML7B6 That’s what IP67+ will get you.
[Dominic Deacon] “Isn’t this just the same as the Samsung Gear nonsense or am I missing something key that Apples done?”
I’ll let you know when I get them. But regardless of quality, the CASE by itself is most definitely a first as well as the far superior ease of use, way of connecting AND automatic switching of source on the fly. What has Samsung done in that respect? I sure don’t know of anything.

If it uses any Sierra-only tech (that you want/need), sure. Just as it’s been until now. You just simply don’t get the thing(s?) until you upgrade. I’d say it’s HIGHLY unlikely they’re going to force you to upgrade to a FEW DAY OLD OS just to use FCP. They’re not stupid. They know full well that especially businesses are the slowest to make a jump like that, and those are definitely the ones they want on the latest and greatest first and foremost. Be it with caveats or not.

[Michael Gissing] “… changing semi standards is never about selling new headphones or adapter cables. […] Embracing change for its own sake and not when change actually makes improvement is perverse.”
Right. That’s ALL it is. No question. Nailed it. Pure brilliance.
“We’re trying to make great products for people, and we have at least the courage of our convictions to say we don’t think this is part of what makes a great product, we’re going to leave it out. Some people are going to not like that, they’re going to call us names […] but we’re going to take the heat [and] instead focus our energy on these technologies which we think are in their ascendancy and we think are going to be the right technologies for customers. And you know what? They’re paying us to make those choices. […] If we succeed, they’ll buy them, and if we don’t, they won’t, and it’ll all work itself out.”
– Steve Jobs (on Flash, but applies 100%)“We do understand that this might be a difficult transition for some people who love their wired headphones,” says [Phil] Schiller. “But the transition is inevitable. You’ve got to do it at some point. Sooner or later the headphone jack is going away. There are just too many reasons aligned against it sticking around any longer. There’s a little bit of pain in every transition, but we can’t let that stop us from making it. If we did, we’d never make any progress at all. The question we ask ourselves when making transitions like these is, have we done all the right things to mitigate it and to explain it and to make what’s on the other side so good that everyone is happy with the change? We think we’ve done that.”
Choosing to do what you know will be unpopular in the short run but you believe will prove correct in the long run takes courage. Courage of one’s convictions, not running-into-a-burning-building-to-save-a-life courage, but courage nonetheless.
You disagree? Guess what? You’re not actually required to like, let alone BUY anything. Crazy, huh? No one actually cares. :-))))
And guess what I’ve been getting into my phone for over a year now thanks to the Lightning port? 96kHz 24bit audio from my lav. Care to show me that with any other phone or port? What was that about “actually makes improvement”? The audio connector is more than 100 years old. It had its last big innovation (i.e. “actual improvement”) about 50 years ago. You know what that was? They made it smaller. Hoo… ray… It hasn’t been touched since then. It’s a dinosaur. No clue how anyone could defend its existence given the vastly superior alternatives.
Unless of course the name APPLE shows up somewhere…
I couldn’t be happier that they finally got rid of that ancient nonsense. Yeah, I’m SO incredibly bummed that I won’t have to fish my corded earbuds out of my bag anymore, that have worked themselves into what looks like a bad hair-day. Damn. All that for the sake of faster adoption rate of wireless headphones? Bah humbug!
I’ll give you ONE guess at what the next Samsung phone will have i.e. NOT have. Will you be back here ranting over that then (without actually having even seen anything) as well? Of course not.

[Michael Paul] “So I have the timeline index opened but what do I do then?”
Shift click as with any and every other list in FCP… or anywhere else for that matter?
So now are you trying to SELECT or MOVE the clips past a certain point?? Because selecting to move (in a case like that) is completely unnecessary and convoluted in the context of the magnetic timeline.
[Michael Paul] “in some tutorials I saw people had a button NEXT to timeline index.”
Then those were clearly AGE old tutorials. As in 3+ years. Like they say: you get what you pay for.
