First,
We're not dead. We've struggling with the philafcpug.org domain, as the group that registered it, wouldn't let us take control (quite a bit of paperwork.) It's solved and should be pointing here soon.
Second: NAB thoughts. ALL GUESSES.
FCP6:
Figure tons of stuff moved over to RT via the GPU.
Final Touch Bundled.
Curve Color corrector
New FX language/development
Mixing of frame rates via the GPU (Possibly might require a 512mb card)
Better UI - Fonts/visibility, particularly on 30" screens.
Background renders (optional)
Additions to media management - possibly a new app to do this.
32 bit float- with certain codecs.
Support for all sorts of codec stuff - HDV, RED.
64 bit ability with Leopard.
Possible use of Inspectors (like DVDSP and Motion)
No such think as FCP extreme
DVDSP5
More RT effects, more blue/HD DVD.
Hoping: Prebuilt scripts
Improved interface
Motion:
More RT
3D
3D particles.
Livetype Rolled into Motion.
Cinema tools
General DB improvements
New Shake.
Shake^2, or something like that - new UI, more presets.
More RT stuff
My big question....is it shipping now, or waiting for leopard? (I'm guessing within 60 days)
