Re: DaVinci Resolve 8.1 -- now with FCPXML roundtrip support

[Jeremy Garchow] "I haven't played with iMovie much, no and it's not a rude question. My point about AE and PPro having similar interfaces still stands."

I'm afraid we're not going to get very much further with this conversation if you still think the similarities are of that order. The comparison doesn't really hold up at all. Please do go and have a proper look at iMovie and tell me if you still think the same way.

[Jeremy Garchow] "I hope you know, I am not denying what seems to be similar interfaces and methods, but that link that was sent by Steve Conor seems to point out some really major differences between the apps, including the timelines. They don't even look similar, I just took you at your word."

You've lost me here - I think Steve Connor's link pretty much nails the fact that they are fundamentally the same, but then I would think that ;-)

However my point is absolutely nothing to do with whether or not they "look" the same as this is a completely trivial point of comparison and I wouldn't object to you scoffing at it if it were the only piece of evidence.

The evidence is all in the details of the functionality - where the similarities are extreme to the point where it just doesn't make sense to try and separate them.
