Re: FCPX metadata--how significant is it? And why?

[Christian Schumacher] "I believe Jeremy's experience on searching in FCP legacy's "Browser" is limited to a fat project with a massive bunch of clips in it. And I don't think he is into long-form, as well. "

Big project, lots of media, and lots of metadata. I will have to show you what one clip looks like when I get back to the office tomorrow. Every column is full, and not just with one field, but multiple, as FCP7s columns are very limited.

I don't know what long form has to do with it except my sequences aren't as long. While the sequences aren't long, I make up for it in volume, I can assure you that. That sounds like some sort of euphemism.

[Christian Schumacher] " It is prudent to wait until FCP X matures, until then use your helmets and take the heat."

Dude. FCPXs searching is far better, more useful, more dynamic (and easier) than FCP7.

Combine that with the information that follows the clips in the timeline in the Timeline Index is great.

Got your helmet on? :-D
