I had never heard of StopTheMadness, which is not cheap (as you have to buy Mac and Mobile versions at $7.99 each) and the Mac version also works on Firefox and Chrome as well. It overrides websites attempts to lock out browser features, which is something I have been thinking about for a long time. It can also remove tracking tags, and URL shorteners.
OWC has an article on Softraid 7 which will add support for MacOS Ventura, and it isn’t recommended to upgrade until this is released.
I run Softraid for a work drive and a personal drive, so there is no way I can upgrade to Ventura until then. Honestly the shared iPhoto library is the most interesting feature to me.
Already I have been annoyed by YouTube, a recent update on Apple TV, has my TV showing a lost connection at every commercial break, which means huge delays on every commercial break. I have seen speculation that it might be the addition of HDR to the Apple TV app, which means that the commercials are different than the stream, and causing the lost connection and pause at every commercial break.
For now it will only have 2 tabs, the color tab shown above, and the cut tab.
Here;s hoping that the cut page will work with the DaVinci Speed Editor, which is Bluetooth, so that would only make sense.
They have also said there will be a free version and a paid Studio Version from the iTunes Store.
With the M2 Chip in the new ipad pro this should work, though the limited ram might be a bit of an issue, as will storage, so hopefully it will work well with external hard drives.
This will be released in quarter 4 of 2022!
How can Blackmagic Design manage this, when Apple hasn’t manged a version of Final Cut Pro for the iPad.
It seems it isn’t even really a 4 nanometer process, but an enhanced 5 Nanometer Process, just running faster with faster memory, but with none of what was expected for the A16.
And if the true A16 is delayed, it also might explain why the M2 for the MacPro is delayed and why Apple might not hit the 2 year mark on the Mac Pro moving to Apple Silicon.
Luckily ProRes has become pretty standard across my editing. Most cameras can record to it, and it works great, with so little processing power. Personally I don’t even like bringing any MP4’s in, and convert even them to ProRes Proxy.
Of course now with a Blackmagicdesign 6k Pro I have been shooting BlackMagic RAW and it in 6K certainly seems to take more processing power than ProRes, but it is also more compressed.
I would like to see how the M1 processors can handle H.264, which might mean less recompressing. I just see standardizing on a format to make Premiere work more like AVID, which has always been the most stable editing system.
Of course we don’t really know anything, other then it is coming, so it is literally all speculation. We think it will be based on the M2, and it might be 5nm or even 3nm, and we don’t know ports and it is rumored to have 40 cores, or double the M1 Ultra.
I wish this machine was a known quantity as it really should be my next machine if it isn’t too expensive.
