Re: Does FCP 5 render 10 bit RGB now?

Here the deal.

FCP will do high-bit depth processing in YUV only. Furthermore, AE plug-ins used in FCP are dumbed down to 8-Bit RGB. Plug-in manufacturers have been begging Apple for an API or documentation for getting around this, but Apple has not been forthcoming. Apple plug-ins, however, can perform in YUV and higher bit depths. The only problem is that Apple doesn't list which plug-in (effects) use which color bit-depth.

So, please write your Congressman or Apple to say this situation is just wrong.
