Apple Pro Apps team to Motion users today: “You don’t matter”
November 22, 2024 at 9:39 AM
Strange how Apple updated the user guide for Motion from 5.8 to 5.9 for one of the smallest feature updates in many years.

And that's saying something!

5.8 guide 1414 pages
5.9 guide 1400 pages:

Online version of new section:
November 22, 2024 at 9:39 AM
Compressor 4.9 new features:
• Transcode stereoscopic video files to spatial video for editing in Final Cut Pro and playback on Apple Vision Pro
• Export spatial video encoded files to Photos to automatically share with Apple Vision Pro

Difference between Stereo video and Spatial video in Final Cut Pro 11 for Mac?
“Stereo video and spatial video can both be exported in the MV-HEVC format, but spatial video is exported with additional metadata that enables immersive viewing experiences on Apple Vision Pro.”

Such as RAW parameters.

Final Cut Pro 11 new features.
With links to how they work - from the new documentation.
November 22, 2024 at 9:39 AM
Motion v5.9 is available

More of a ‘5.8.1’
- if you don't consider 'v5.8' actually more like version v5.6.8

A bugfix update
With feature to do with video decoders
No spatial template features

At least they didn't discontinue it

I mainly social on Twitter. I have a Mastodon account. I’m going to also social on another platform. Which of these two are you on most often?

Warning: If you run the Kartaverse/KartaVR tools to make XR/Immersive videos on the free version of @Blackmagic_News DaVinci Resolve, don’t upgrade to the new version 19.1.

BMD have disabled Reactor Package Manager that these tools rely on.

New M4 iMac mentions one or two 6K external displays support + ‘Thunderbolt 4 digital video output.’
So that's three or more external displays using third-party options.

Keyboard/mouse charged using USB-C (because that's the cable that comes with it).
