You Send It, a replacement for FTP, allows you to send files up to two gig files over the internet. Cool.
Yet a little while back they released a plug-in for FCP which allows you to export your project out and send it for approval, or to another editor. This is a very cool initiative on their part, but since it is in Beta it comes with several drawbacks. The Plugin resides in you export options, but really isn’t “exporting” by definition. What it attempts to do it round up all your media and the project file and send them along. I hope your beginning to catch on.
- The 2GB limitation isn’t a lot of video time.
- If you have media in folders, it doesn’t see it.
- I’m having trouble using the plug-in with any project containing RED footage
In the next round I’d like to see the plug-in access QT Conversion and export a compressed version to send. Additionally, if their developers are feeling up to it, run it as a background process. That would be ideal. Overall a very cool concept which I applaud YSI for.
