10.03 released and it's BIG!

there was a link here, but we are now all the app store

FCP X 10.0.3 announced, but not on app store yet as of this posting.

Apple Updates Final Cut Pro X

Apple released Final Cut Pro X v10.0.3, a significant update that introduces:

* Multicam editing that automatically syncs up to 64 angles of video and photos
* Advanced chroma keying for handling complex adjustments right in the app
* Enhanced XML interchange for developers to build apps and plug-ins as part of the Final Cut Pro X ecosystem

Final Cut Pro X v10.0.3 also includes a broadcast monitoring beta that supports both Thunderbolt devices and PCIe cards.

Visit the Final Cut Pro X Software Update page for more information on the Final Cut Pro X software update. Visit the Final Cut Pro Sales Resource Page on ASW for updated First Looks and an updated Product Presentation. New demo content will be available by the end of February.

Reeeeealy tempted t install the update, but I'm working on a project already and am worried about stability.

Ben, any word from the Beta testing team on stability?

In the middle of smashing it against the wall while writing an honest review for macProVideo due in the morning. I've not seen any stability issues with updated projects... "YET". I'll report back if I find any problems with updating projects, as that is really important.

Hope others here will update projects and report how stable it is, but my initial thought is that it shouldn't really be an issue.

Motion and Compressor updates online now, too.

And don't forget the $5 "7toX" app in the Mac App Store!!!!!!
Thank you Philip!!!!!!

It's pretty stable. I've upgrade quite a few projects on both of my machines. There are some odd issues that creep up with multicam and the color board. That I have found but over all it is really an amazing update!

One thing to be careful with is in Multicam. It is a Parent and Child paradigm. Meaning any changes made in the Angle Editor in either a timeline or in the Event Browser it is applied across all. So it is best to duplicate your Multicam clip and then work off of one and you have a clean version to go back to if you ever need to for a different sequence (compound clip) I have a video tutorial up sometime tonight showing why this is important.

Does anyone have an idea of how big the various updates are (in terms of GB)? I'm on a slow connection at the moment so I might have to give it a miss for a few weeks.

I managed to download the update through the App Store on one computer but not the other. It keeps telling me I need to use the account I bought it from. I've done that and still ng. Anyone else experiencing this problem?

Delete the original in the Applications folder, then update.

As for size, hell, just do it. Who really cares how long it takes? Seriously, let it run overnight if you have to.

I agree with Ben, do the update. It really worth it!

Do you know if that works with FCP6?

Never saw the need to upgrade to 7 until it was too late.

To quote Philip Hodgetts:
"It’s untested with V6 FCP but it should work. Speed changes may be an issue, but otherwise, no problem."

Looks like automatic Keyframing is back. No?

Yes it is. They've done away with the Motion keyframing routine and are back to use the FCP routine everywhere in the app. Good change. Wished keyframing text attributes worked though. Still broken. The only thing animated when you add keyframes is the slider in the inspector. Don't know why this hasn't been mixed.

how do i get the update cant find it in app store

App Store, Updates tab. If it doesn't show up there, and you really are on 10.0.2, go to the Applications folder, throw FCP X into the Trash, back in the App Store, Purchased tab, "install" FCP X again, there's no charge.

ok im running 10.0.1 so what steps do i take from hea

Did you check your Purchased tab? For whatever reason I found my Motion updates there, while FCP and Compressor showed up under Updates.

Just like I said in my post.

Ok on a wirrd AppStore note...
How come FCPX still is shoeing up in my updates in throw AppStore.

It's already installed on my laptop as well as 2 drives (Lion and Snow Leopard) om my MacPro.

No matter what I try it still shows up, even if I redownload. :S

Click it, see what happens. Otherwise, if you're up to date, ignore it.
