    Default Apple doesn't let you optimize!

    Going opinion is that on import FCP X optimizes all your media. However, with some formats, this function is greed out. Apple finally cleared this issue and says that formats that can be edited natively don't need to be optimized - a no-brainer - and, therefore FCP doesn't let you do so.

    Formats are:

    HDV
    DV
    DVCPRO HD
    XDCAM HD/EX/HD422
    Not mentioned: MPEG files unwrapped from Canon MXF

    If you insist on having your files in ProRes, you still need to transcode them in Compressor.

    You not only deserve frustration, you deserve physical measurable pain. The commercial filmmaking (aka VIDEO) industry is full of communists who swear by Apple. Us capitalists are what's keeping this industry afloat with our PC based Vegas and similar softwares.

    And your source is?
    The Korova milkbar sold milk-plus, milk plus vellocet or synthemesc or drencrom, which is what we were drinking. This would sharpen you up and make you ready for a bit of the old ultra-violence.

    I see. I thought he pulled it out of his arse, silly me. Close enough, I guess and not bad considering I'm readjusting to an eight-time-zone flight.

    "The characteristics of narcissistic personality disorder typically include:

    Self centered behaviors such as demanding attention and praise
    a lack of empathy towards others
    difficulty maintaining interpersonal relationships
    limited insight such as blaming society rather than own behavior
    anger towards others in the spotlight
    seeking out associations with high status people.
    "

    (Not directing this toward anyone specific, just so you know...)
