Question
What should our next workflow cover? We write workflows here: real steps for things cinemaOS does today. Each one is written against a named build, stamped Verified by Momentum once we've run it end to end, and updated when the app moves on. Tell us one task you do every week, the result you need at the end, and where you get stuck. We'll turn the most-asked ones into workflows here.

Question
Source or Sequence: where do you grade? A real question about what we build next, and your answers feed the order we do it in. In the Finisher, the Source and Sequence chips switch what you're finishing: the selected clip on its own, or the live Sequencer timeline. Two pieces of Color work are queued for the next build: Sequence: what you see and pick while grading a clip inside the cut is exactly what gets written and analysed. Part of this is already done. Source: speed when you grade a clip on its own. Tell us: Which do you grade in, Source or Sequence? What footage, roughly: log, phone, RAW, mixed? What slows you down or surprises you there? We'll read every answer and post here what we decided and why.

Behind the scenes: translation moves inside cinemaOS One change for the next build. It has been in our main code since 26 September. In Build 7, subtitle and dub-script translation uses Apple's on-device translation by default, and some languages need support installed in macOS first. In the next build, translation runs on the language model that ships inside cinemaOS, for every language that model handles well enough. Nothing downloads, nothing leaves your Mac, and there's no account or service behind it. "Well enough" is measured. We ran every candidate language through the model and scored whether the meaning survives a round trip. A good score means the meaning came back. It doesn't prove the grammar. 102 languages were measured, and 65 reached our score floor. 7 of those are held back because the saved output drifted into a different language. Asturian came out as Spanish, for example. That leaves 58 languages on offer. Four reached Good: Dutch, French, German and European Portuguese. The other 54 are Draft or Rough. Each language shows its tier where you pick it. Good means spot-check it. Draft and Rough mean a fluent person reads it before anyone else sees it. Every translated line stays marked as machine translation until someone approves it. Which languages do you subtitle into, and who checks them today? Your answers tell us where to measure next.

Archive a finished project so you can check it and restore it later When a job is delivered, a Verified Archive puts the project and every media file it uses in one folder, with a checksum for each file. Later, cinemaOS can prove nothing has changed and restore the project from it. Written against Build 7, the current public build. Make the archive Save the project with File ▸ Save Project (⌘S). Create Verified Archive stays greyed out until the project has been saved to a file. Choose File ▸ Verified Archive ▸ Create Verified Archive…. Pick where it should go. A different drive from your working media is the point. cinemaOS makes a new folder there, named after the project and ending in Verified Archive. Read the confirmation. It says how many media files will be copied and how much space they take. Every file is copied, checksummed and reopened before the archive folder appears, and an existing folder is never replaced. Choose Create Verified Archive. It runs as a job in the queue. When it's done, the status line reads Verified archive complete and Finder shows the folder. Check it later Choose File ▸ Verified Archive ▸ Verify Archive… and pick the archive folder. cinemaOS checks every file against its SHA-256 checksum and reopens the project. It changes nothing. A pass reads Archive verified, with the number of files. Restore it Choose File ▸ Verified Archive ▸ Restore Archive… and pick the archive folder. Pick where the restored project should go. cinemaOS creates a new folder named after the project and ending in Restored, checks every restored file against its checksum, and leaves the archive untouched. The restored project is added to your recent projects and shown in Finder. Worth knowing Don't add anything to an archive folder. Verify treats any file that isn't in the archive's manifest as a failure. Finder's own .DS_Store file is the one exception. If the destination already holds a folder with the same name, nothing is replaced. Choose another destination. Tried it on a real project? Reply with how big it was, what drive you used and how long it took. If a step didn't match what you saw, tell us which one.

Question
What do you still need before you can leave Adobe? Honest question. We'd rather hear the hard answer. Here's what the current public build, Build 7, already does with work from Adobe apps: XML exported from Premiere Pro brings over cuts, transitions, speed changes, volume, transforms, markers and captions. Premiere Pro projects (.prproj) open through an experimental reader: cuts, timing and media links only. If it can't read one, it stops and walks you through an XML export instead. Anything that doesn't come across is listed in the conform report before the timeline opens. Effects, styled titles (they arrive as markers), multicam angle cuts and audio plug-in chains don't translate. View ▸ Customize Keyboard Shortcuts… has a Premiere Pro key layout. So what would still stop you? Name the app, the thing you'd miss, and one real job where you'd miss it. The more specific, the more useful. Adobe and Premiere Pro are either registered trademarks or trademarks of Adobe in the United States and/or other countries. cinemaOS is not affiliated with or endorsed by Adobe.

Question
Show us what you're making What's on your timeline right now? Reply with the project, who it's for, and the part that's fighting you. Rough cuts count. So do student films, client edits and things you're making for no one but yourself. If you want the work itself seen, share it with + New: stills, clips up to 90 seconds, or a before and after. Add Feedback wanted if you'd like notes from people in your craft. Only post work you have the right to share. We look through what's posted, and some of it gets selected for the Screening Room.

Welcome to Momentum This is Momentum, the official cinemaOS server on Publika. The Momentum team posts here: updates, open questions, craft that works in the app today, and the progress behind the product. A few things worth knowing: Publika is one network of creators and posts. A server is a way to follow part of it. Posts here also show up in Home for anyone who watches or joins Momentum. Watching a server isn't joining it. Watching just brings its posts into your Home. Share your own work with + New. It goes to your profile and to the people who follow you. Found a cinemaOS problem or have an idea? Use + New, then Report a cinemaOS problem or Suggest an idea. They land here in Momentum, away from your profile. Your Publika profile runs on your Momentum account, and Publika stays open to you after a cinemaOS trial ends. To start, reply with your name, what you make and what brought you to cinemaOS. A city or a country is plenty. No addresses.
