Google can supposidly convert your current flash files to HTML5:

Unfortunately, I can’t think of a good way to accomplish this.
I see two options – one is super quick, but un-edit-able, while the other is time consuming but retains functionality.
1. Super Quick (I’m on a deadline) Option – Export French document to multi-page pdf. Use freely available pdf importing scripts which will place each page on its own layer in the English document. Now you can turn off english layer and quickly print while still maintaining other placed objects.
2. The long way, but preferred for future changes – Copy and paste each page from one to the other. It sucks, but you can edit it later if changes come along.

I agree, but at the same time the name implies that this is a professional application and also in sticking with the same name as previous products leads one to think that this should be an upgrade. By not having some core functionality, it is fueling these fires. Had they called it something like Ultimate Editor Lite, it would have been easier to stomach and been much more appropriate. Then later as they added the things that already exist in the product line, but made it all better, they could have renamed it to Ultimate Editor Pro – Final Cut’s replacement.

A quick peak online shows still in stock at B&H and a few copies available on Amazon still.

Just read your article on MacWorld and was thinking I know that Gary guy. So I cruise over to the Cow and sure enough, one and the same.
I’m mostly shocked that this version cannot open FCP7 files.
How much faster is this version though. Should I blow $300 to use it on small to mid-level projects? Will it make back the money I spend on it?Tech-T Productions

This sounds like you would be retyping much of it, rather than importing data.
For numbering, you just use InDesigns numbering.
The question would be typed (or copy and paste)
The figure number should be a name instead and use the cross-reference feature.Tech-T Productions

Some phones have HDMI out now. Could you record that and replace?

Yes, I saw that. Unfortunately, I couldn’t find any details about iPhone on the website. It says it is for iPod and there is a little footnote saying that a message was recorded by the owner using it on iPhone 3G. With the other responses on the net about things not working on the 4G, I am hesitant to buy it.

I’ve never tried this for web compression, but your segmentation route is the way I do it for DVDs. You naturally need chapter markers for your videos, so I export separate reference movies from FCP for compressor for each chapter. Then I compress appropriately for the content in that chapter.
The interesting part about applying this to web is the “glue”. If you cut/copy/paste in QuickTime, how do you then save the final version? You could make a reference movie, but that gets kind of messy having to keep track of all those files to show one video. If you export to make a self-contained video, then it will re-encode the whole thing. If you “save as…” and select self-contained – well that would seem to be the correct solution, but what does it do to the final video? Never tried it and with you saying that the audio gets out of sync makes it very intriguing. Please keep us updated.
