A round of updates to the Pro Apps for January. All three video applications get bug fixes and one very important change of behaviour in Final Cut Pro X 10.3.2.

Great to see Apple following up quite quickly on the last update with a series of bug fixes for the Pro Apps.

Final Cut Pro X gets updated to 10.3.2. You will notice the change of behaviour when using delete on a range of audio in the Primary storyline. The update reverts back to the 10.2.3 way where it would extract this part of the audio rather than just mute it. You see - Apple do listen to their customers!

Also the improved handling of long projects will be good news for those editors who have noticed a significant drop in performance when moving clips in large projects. (Early reports suggest a significant performance boost.)

We should also note here that Compressor has been fixed to allow the correct export of ProRes 4444 files with alpha - Something we know was driving a few graphic artists nuts!

As always before updating, back up your projects and zip up a copy of the existing application. Just in case!

Could this be clearing the deck for a feature update at NAB?

Apple has released an update to Final Cut Pro X. 10.3.4 is now available on the Mac App Store. No new features, just bug fixes.

When 10.3.3 was released, there were a few bugs that were reported quite early on. One of them was an audio level discrepancy. Apple also changed the way that it processed the audio waveform information and that caused problems with some third party recording apps.

The update to 10.3.4 looks like a bug fix, no new features, but still good to see Apple reacting to problems quickly. Feedback on the update so far has been good with no new bugs reported!

As always, not a good idea to update in the middle of a project, however should you want to, make sure you have a copy of all the Libraries you need before proceeding. There's also no harm in making a copy of FCPX and zipping it up for backup.

New in Final Cut Pro X 10.3.4

• Resolves a stability issue when using keyboard shortcuts to trim in Secondary Storylines
• Fixes an issue in which certain editing operations could create an extra audio fade in
• Fixes an issue in which the Share dialog could incorrectly display a codec warning

Interesting as well that iMovie has had an update to 10.1.6

What's New in Version 10.1.6

• Improves stability when updating libraries created with earlier versions of iMovie
• Addresses an issue which could lower the volume of clips after transitions
