Re: Final Cut Server, trying to understand.....

FCServer will not give you Unity type sharing. Note this is from bleary eyed reading of FCServers manuals. FCP projects are checked in and out of FCS as whole assets to one user at a time. There is no intra-project sharing where ownership is divvied out at the bin/sequence level.

FCServer is best thought of as an asset control, project/asset database and workflow manager. A much needed tool for those of us who have to manage multiple projects with editors who have their own naming convention/organization or lack there of.

I would not be surprised if Apple buys/leases Editshare's project sharing technology for future versions of FCP/FCServer.
