Re: FCP 7.01 Instability

I'm coming to this conclusion, too... But there are times when you need to reframe something or maybe add some effect to make that graphic pop.

Rendering out of Motion can create lots of files that you constantly replace. Anyways... This was a selling point of Apple's a few years ago that made Motion so attractive. Marketing gimmick, I guess.

Well, its OK when you send to Compressor for one-off client DVDs. But if your timeline has lots of graphics, you'll spend lots of time re-rendering in Compressor. This is another feature that almost works.
