#Final cut pro for mac review update#
It is telling though, that DVD Studio Pro did not receive a significant update for the second time running.
I would imagine many people are in the same boat and therefore burning a basic disc in Compressor is a much faster and more efficient way to work. Although I never really thought about it before, the majority of the DVDs I make in DVDSP are rough cuts for client approval that don't need a fancy custom menu and I never make use of any of the advanced features like scripting. And integrating it into Compressor is significant too. So it is likely that the problems with Compressor have not gone away.īlu-rayBlu-ray burning directly in Compressor - I certainly didn't expect this. It's also worth noting that the minor applications in the suite only received minor updates, as indicated by their version numbers. However, they also say that ProRes 422 Proxy is designed for editing on a MacBook or MacBook Pro, so it would appear that Final Cut Pro can at least be used on a machine with integrated graphics, if not some of the other apps in the suite.
I noticed a lot of the screenshots in Apple's examples were taken in Tiger, suggesting that perhaps the feature list was set long before Snow Leopard was announced.Īpple claims that Final Cut Studio will not work on a device with integrated graphics - such as a MacBook or Mac Mini. There is no word on whether or not it takes advantage of the new features of Snow Leopard such as Grand Central Dispatch or OpenCL, nor any indication that Final Cut Pro has been rewritten in Cocoa as has been so often speculated. My thoughts on the new Final Cut StudioWow, I go away for a couple of days and Apple has a brand new version of FCS waiting for me when I get back (although I do think the fact that it is simply called Final Cut Studio and not Final Cut Studio 3 will cause confusion).ĪrchitectureThis is Leopard and Intel-only, which is a little surprising because there's only a couple of months until Snow Leopard comes out, and I think many of us thought a Snow Leopard-only release in September was likely.
