 | FCP 10.0.5 fixes found
by T. Payton on Jun 12, 2012 at 3:18:15 am |
I found a few things fixed in 10.0.5.
1- the font size in the event library is horizontally compressed. Looks like Helvetica Condensed:
2 - During playback if a blade tool or other trim tool is used the waveform and filmstrip now redraws (in 10.0.3 and 10.0.4 it went blank until playback was stopped.)
I'm sure there is more.

- in the inspector some of the font are smaller (at least on my MacBook Pro).
- the range indicator is now thinner and the handles are only one sided.
- the "yellow" range and selection color is now more "yellow" and less orange-yellow. I frankly find the old orange-yellow much more pleasing to the eye.

All those could be the "retina" graphic updates?

The condensed font looks more difficult to read.
I think the color of the skimmer is more saturated red. All these appearance changes are probably retina based.
Hopefully there are more bug fixes, but not finding anything new yet.
All the best,
Tom

Very very minor fixes.
Stability might be better but it will take a concentrated work session to find that out.
Annoyingly my color picker is still broken.
I just get a black centre to the 'magnify glass' picker.
The workaround as pointed out in a previous thread is to use the DigitalColor Meter and copy the RGB settings manually. Efficient but cumbersome.

I usually just copy the hex when I have to copy RGB colors.

Mark,
Is your color picker only broken in FCP? Did you try it in something like TextEdit?
That sounds like something on the OS level.

[T. Payton] "Is your color picker only broken in FCP? Did you try it in something like TextEdit?

Well I took your advice and checked out the color picker in TextEdit and you are right it's not working there either.
I guess I'll run the few checks I know how to do such as repairing disk permissions although I seem to remember doing this already.
Any suggestions as to how I might resolve this problem would be welcome.
And Brett forgive me but what do you mean by 'I usually just copy the hex when I have to copy RGB colours.'
Thanks

If disk permissions doesn't work, create a new user account and then see if the problem persists in the new user account. Then let me know the results. Also what version of the OS are you on?

Hi - thanks.
Resetting disk permissions didn't work. I also booted up on my old drive to try and run disk warrior on my current drive but couldn't run it because it needed upgrading which required the original disk which I can't find right now. Incidently color picker works on that drive ( Snow leopard)
My current operating system is 10.7.4 on a 2008 2x2.8 GHz Quad-Core - 22 GB memory

Try creating a new user account in Lion. See if it still has a problem with the new user account.

Yup - still got the problem with new user account - so it's a bit of mystery.
Fortunately I can use the Digital Color Meter to get my RGB values and manually insert them.

Mark,
That narrows it down to a system level problem.
I would try to do a Lion "Restore Install". Boot up and hold Command R, when the recovering menu comes up choose to reinstall Lion. Make sure you don't erase your disk just install over your current. It will do its thing for quite a while (like a good hour, it will download Lion from Apple) and replace the core system components and leave all your data in tact.
Oh before you do that I would ensure you have a good time machine backup of your Mac.

Hi T,
Well it seems a bit like using a sledgehammer to open a nut but having backed everything up I'm going to give it a go.
I'm a big fan of the App store as it makes jobs like this so much easier.
I'll let you know how it goes.
Incidentally do you have any thoughts about the advantages of installing SSDrives on a Mac Pro. With the MacPro replacement probably at least a year away it would be great to have a more responsive machine.
Well it would be great to have FCPX working faster!
Thanks

If the color picker is busted, I think something else must be broken also but why don't we try this. Shoot me an email at my name creative cow name without the period or space at onecreative and then not dot com but dot net.
Perhaps i can just sent you replacements for the color picker and the nut will be cracked much faster.

I'd be interested in some thoughts about that as well.

I don't have any experience with SSDs in my MacPro. But I've seen some other guys on the cow talk about it. Check this out from OWC, this is out of control for a MacPro. 600MB+/Sec.:

A blurb on BareFeets about it:

From my experience, speeding up FCP X seems all about the GPU. I have a rather inexpensive 5770 in my 2006 MacPro and frankly it is working just dandy in FCP X.

SSDs will increase your boot time if that's important to you.
It will increase your file transfer time and if you put a couple of them together, it will increase your multiple stream count. It will not, however, increase any CPU cycles.
