Why is the Keyer in FCP X different from the Keyer in Motion 5?

I'm dissapointed that the advanced features for the Keyer in Motion 5 aren't available in FCPX, ie Spill supression, Light wrap etc. It seems that they should be the same in both programs. This wouldn't be a problem if you could round trip more easily between the two programs.

But all the filters that are now in FCP X are just extensions of those built in Motion. That's what rigging and publishing is all about. So why not just add all the features of the Motion Keyer when it goes to FCP X? Which I guess is something I can do myself.

  • Why is my amount of space used different from my Creative Cloud Files Folder size?

  • Why are the interfaces of PRO APPLICATIONS different, Why not fixed in FCS3

    From someone who has been working on macs since 1984, and making my living as a video producer/editor since 1991 using mac:
    Back in the first two decades of Apple's existence, all apps had "Universal Tools & Interfaces". An arrow, a crosshair, a timeline.... You get the picture. LiveType, Motion, Soundtrack Pro, Logic, WaveBurner, and DVD Studio ALL have different looking and acting tools and timelines. This unnecessary mess of differing type tools and interfaces goes against the one thing that makes Macs Macs.
    My limited mind can only store so much. It can hold LT, FCP, and Logic interfaces, norms, key commands, timeline behaviors. I don't have any more mind space for yet another app's. I got completely confused in SoundTrack today.... Oh that's the fourth App I had to use.... I got an error message "There's not enough brain matter to continue, you can cry, spend an hour re-learning, or just edit the 15 tracks of audio in FCP"
    I can't believe it's just me who feels this way. They sell us suite of products, all with differing interfaces and key based tools. You would have thought by this third version they'd make A = pointer or B= Blade or 0 = Rewind in at least two apps.... I hope someone at Apple is trying to fix this horrible situation. I can only hope.... I hope they will still "support" LiveType in the Next Upgrade or I'll freak out.
    Someone tell me why they are still all different, please?

    Buying all the software (except Motion) from other companies results in what you see in Studio. They did this because it was their interest to do so. Apple bought FCP, originally written for PC's, in what amounted to a fire sale for example.
    Would you spend the money (and we're talking a LOT of money) to make them all share a similar UI if you didn't have to? It can be argued that corporate law in this country dictates that Apple cannot spend that dough. How about that notion? LOL...
    True, it's tougher to learn Studio because of the different UI's each app has. Development of that might happen as they rewrite all the code. However the cost of doing that in any app at one time is high enough that I can understand why it remains the way it is.
    Further, Apple has been and will continue to sell the software anyway, as most users believe it's superior to it's direct competitors in power, stability and in value. Apple won the NLE the unit sales wars a long time ago in any event. Since the market is saturated with FCS users apparently loath to learn (poor souls) a new app, let alone a new suite, there is even less incentive for Apple to spend the dough to do what you'd like to see.
    As mentioned above, you can give feedback to Apple. The development teams do read that feedback. I've met some of the folks who cull it inside Apple in fact.

  • Why is the video inside FCP 6 slightly darker than the OS

    Why is the video playback inside FCP 6.0.5 slightly darker than wehn I play the same Quick Time file just inside the normal OSX10.5?
    I'm using a Cinema HD 23" monitor running at 1920x1200 and display profile is Cinema HD Calibrated
    Thx
    Kevin

    It is darker because that is a more closely representational GAMMA as to what you will see on your external broadcast monitor. QT lightens the gamma to ensure that most computer monitors can see the footage. As stated, if you want the gamma to appear darker, enable FCP COLOR COMPATIBILITY in the QT preferences.
    WHY does it look more like what you see in FCP when you view this on a PC? Well, that is the monitor that PC is using. Take this file, put it on 10 PC all with different monitors and you will see 10 different gammas. The monitors themselves can be set to certain DISPLAY PROFILES (look in your DISPLAYS section under COLOR)...so you can have a HUGE variety of looks.
    The reason is because of the monitors and the computers driving them.

  • Why are the display names in email different on my iphone than in my mailbox on my mac's dashboard?, why are the display names in email different on my iphone than in my mailbox on my mac's dashboard?

    When I look at my inbox on my iphone, the emails' senders' names appear different from how they are displayed in my inbox on my computer.  Why is this?  It is drastic enough that when I email myself, my email's display appears as 'Mag Home' when I look at my inbox on my computer.  When I look at the inbox on my phone, it appears as something completely different-something I would never have enterred.  I can't figure out how to change this.  I do use AOL for my email (I know, I know, archaic....)

    QTK,
    Thanks again. You certainly satisfied my curiosity on the "install," vs "app," thing.
    One install, multiple apps, ok.
    But you didn't comment on my last question. And I need to know what you think before I can mark this Q, solved.
    +**But, more importantly, what will happen if I try to reinstall my FCP 4, which comes with QT6 on Tiger? Will there be a conflict? Might it cause a problem?+
    As FCP installs QT Pro as part of the install. And, as there was no QT7 when FCP4 came out,
    Is FCP4 "forward compatible," (or however you put it), enough to see the higher version of QT, and not mess with that part of the installation?
    Can I safely reinstall FCP4 without causing a problem?
    Thanks again.

  • Why is the contents of Safari's downloads folder different than the actual folder?

    Why is the contents of Safari's downloads folder different than the actual folder that resides in my users folder?

    Problem is if I delete that .plist I'll delete those downloads.  I'm still able to launch those downloads from that location so that tells that file is probably not corrupted. I need to be able to located that folder and transfer the downloads from it before I do anything like this.  So that begs the question, where is that folder located?  When I do a folder search I'm taken to a Downloads folder, but it's not the one that is showing up from within Safari as it's contents are too different.

  • Can anybody help me in finding the reasons why the time of email received are different from the one on my macbook which time is correct

    Hi
    Can anyone help me in finding the reason why the date on e=mail reced is different from the one on my MacBook eventhough it is correct
    Thanks

    Try this...
    Triple click anywhere in the line below to select it and press Ctrl+C to copy it.
    cmd /k netsh winsock reset
    Press the WinLogoKey+R to open the run dialog, then Ctrl+V to paste, then press enter/return.
    You should get something similar to this:
    Reboot the computer and the problem should be resolved.
    If it doesn't work then perhaps a full tear down and rebuild of iTunes will fix things. See Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates for details.

  • Why is the font of text fields different from document-text

    I am using forms in my pdf.
    I am inserting Text-Fields in the pdf-form.
    I set the color and size of text as the same as the document text as calibri 9.
    1) Why is the font different between the text-field and document content eventhough both are black font of size 9 and of type calibri. The font in the text-field is more gray and blurry. It doesnt look the same as the text in the rest of the document.
    2) why do the document-text font options differ from the text-field font options.
    One has only sizes with even numbers like 8, 10, 12. The other has odd numbers also. Why does the calibri font have 2 different size ranges for the text-fields and document-text/content.

    Yes you are correct, it is with the setting of the properties.
    Where do i report this then if it is not with the SDK but the manual setting of properties.
    Also, how do i alter this ussue with the SDK, what are the commands, does it have to be done only by Javascript?

  • In the info bar at the bottom of the iphoto window, why is the number of items different from the total

    In the info bar at the bottom of the iphoto screen, why is the number of items different from the total?

    What version of iPhoto and system are you running? What mode are you in, i.e. Events, Photos?
    If it's the Photos mode the number at the bottom will represent the number of photos displayed in that mode or the number of photos selected in that mode. The number will match the number next to the photos mode only when there are no photos in that mode that are selected. 
    If you click on the Events icon and then back on the photos icon the numbers should match.

  • Why is the word count different when I use word count from the tools menu to the number at the bottom of my mac word document

    Why is the word count different when I use word count from the tools menu to the number at the bottom of my mac word document

    This forum is for Apple's defunct office suite 'AppleWorks' - since the word count is not in the places you mention I assume you are talking about Microsoft Word? Though it's just possible someone in this forum might also use Word and know the answer, you would stand a higher chance of getting an answer in Microsoft's own forums. You could also try asking in the forum applicable to your operating system - Lion, Mavericks or whatever - on the reasonably chance of finding someone familiar with Word.

  • Why is the New FireFox so different to the previous version?.

    Prior to upgrading if I brought up my FireFox page I had a header the same as my Google Page. The new/latest FireFox Page does not have the header with the options. Those options were,Images-Videos-Maps-News-Shopping-Mail and a More option with a drop-down menu. Why is this the case?.

    ''Why is the New FireFox so different to the previous version?''
    I'll pass pass on the "why", although the reason given would be to improve Firefox by having a page that is on your system -- but the the content is not exactly on your system. I always find it amazing that there is anyone who uses the default home page, especially when Firefox has s builtin search bar. Even a couple of my friends who think the internet is their former ISP have there former ISP's page as their their home page.
    To restore a Google search page you can replace your homepage with http://www.google.com then you will see those Google applications at the top of the window.
    * https://support.mozilla.com/kb/How%20to%20set%20the%20home%20page
    Now that you no longer have the Firefox default home page ("about:home") you had better read item #31 in the following about picking up your previous session from your history menu.

    which is part of the following:
    You can make Firefox '''Firefox 5.0''' look like Firefox 3.6.19, see numbered items 1-10 in the following topic [http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/firefox-problems.htm#fx4interface Fix Firefox 4.0 toolbar user interface, problems (Make Firefox 5.0, or 4.0.1, look like 3.6)].
