VaricamLT: FCPX 10.3 Supports LT Codec

[Noel Evans]

I can confirm (through test) that FCPX now supports the Varicam LT codec. If you havent updated Id suggest doing so.

Please be aware that it defaults to process all Panasonic V - Log to rec.709. To turn that off
> go to video meta data viewer by clicking info in the panel to the right of the clip viewer
> at the bottom left of box is a drop down that says basic click on it and choose settings
> in the panel you can now choose the log processing drop down and choose none.

Additional note: FCPX now supports HDR.

It's worth mentioning that perhaps the most significant update is the new timeline.

It was a really good thing。

Agreed but that's not Varicam related.

I thought getting rid of the timeline was the feature of FCPX? Good news though. Can you answer for HDR, does it support writing HEVC with st-2086 metadata?

Not at this point. There seems to be issues implementing h.265 around licensing costs. There are work arounds out there (which you're probably already aware of).

Getting rid of tracks and replacing them with the magnetic timeline was the feature of FCPX. (and it's great!)
