The documentation is close to useless. Wait – did I say close to? No. It is useless. Tutorials that are so outdated that it is laughable. And no way to search a proper INDEX? If you have a real problem then commit to spending at least four hours on the phone to India (and to be fair they do every once in a while solve a problem.) Premiere Pro CC is at best very buggy. I have to restart frequently. Sadly I have no choice. I look forward to a world where massive companies make more than a cursory effort to solve users problems. I wish the Coen brothers the best of luck. I hope they improve things for all of us.

If that debate were over then at $299 I would be using it – and believe me I have tried really hard to do so. As have many other producers and editors I know.

Just curious, Walter. Are you saying I am delusional?

And here I was referring to a magical workflow that now enables “FCPX” to be “a Universal Logging and Organizing Tool.” I’m sure that every rational person believes this.

Among a million other unanswered questions posed by this new “universal logging and organizing tool.”

I went back and read your original post and it does not come within yard of answering my last question. If it works for you, then dandy. To promote as some sort of UNIVERSAL logging and organizing tool is absolute nonsense.

I guess more specifically I’m asking how (and if) keyword collections fit into Premiere, Vegas, Edius, et al? Are we just talking translation to FCP&?

But are we only talking x to 7? What else?

What precisely do you get in FCPX that you would not get starting in any other NLE? I can do the equivalent of skimming, range selecting, and annotating in any other NLE workflow. And if I did it in Avid I would actually have markers that are useful. I don’t see why I would choose FCPX as my organizational tool for any job.

I have all the useless (and, yes occasionally useful) metadata I need in Premiere CC. If only they had any kind of comprehensive documentation. Sadly Adobe’s documentation is useless crap. Just like the FCPX documentation.
