XML (eXtensible Markup Language) has become a common method of data interchange between postproduction applications. Standard XML variations are like Romance languages: one version is as different from another as German is from French; thus, translation software is required.

Stretching the language analogy, FCP 7's XML is as diff Read More

Now that I’ve had a couple of months beyond the first kicking the tires reaction here’s a few more MC6 observations. Read More

Though This 64-bit Version Moves Faster and Looks Different, the Overall Workflow Remains, Comfortably, the Same The biggest news for editors when Avid began shipping Media Composer 6 last November was the NLE's transformation into a very modern, 64-bit application. Along with that came other great updates, including the support of third-party hardware options (several of which I tested with this review). Read More
