Shift-F will Reveal in Browser. Is this not working for you?

Yes, but then you can’t really edit in After Effects. Basically, there is no plugin for FCP. Only other standalone applications, AE or Shake or Combustion.

Perhaps you can specify exactly what format you’re working in. HD covers a huge range of products and formats and each ahs its own demands and requirements.

Sorry. You don’t get that for $1300.

You’re quite right. It has been changed in the 5.1.1 license. Which I guess means that loading it on two machines is a license violation for those running earlier versions.
All the best,

Yes it is.

I can’t get to the install discs to check, but I believe Apple support is wrong. Unless it changed in v5.1, going back to at least v4 and perhaps earlier, the license has specifically said that the software can only be installed on one machine at a time. There is nothing within the terms of the license agreement that allows for it to be installed on more than one machine, tower or laptop.

Hi Jerry,
I don’t think that’s correct any longer, not for Apple software, unless it’s changed again. The last time I looked the license specifies that the applications only be loaded on one machine at one time. And with the Studio suite, it means, within the terms of the licnese, all the applications have to be loaded on a single machine, and cannot be divided between multiple computers so that one machine has FCP another Motion and another DVDSP, which many people would like to do.

That’s the way the MPEG-1 specification works. That’s the way it’s designed to correctly compress the media. It creates media at 320×240 and the display device is supposed to frame double it to the standard square pixel 640×480.
