Not a good tutorial as it contains basic errors -- at least as far as editing Osmo 4K in FCP X is concerned..
e.g. "Since we can’t import DJI OSMO 4K videos to Adobe Premiere, Avid, FCP directly due to the codec incompatibility and high resolution, the easy workaround here is to transcode OSMO 4K footage in .MP4 or .MOV to a more editing-friendly format in proper settings(1080p would be better). Along with some help from third-party software like Brorsoft 4K Video Converter for Mac, it can be done effortlessly."
So far as FCP X is concerned, it's just plain wrong. You don't need to transcode the footage beforehand, as you can import an Osmo-generated clip directly into an event, and from there into the timeline, without the slightest problem.
And if you did decide, for whatever reason, to transcode the footage, this can be done by FCP X on import.
(I've no idea what he means by "1080p would be better". Why would you want to convert your 4k footage into 1080p?)
If you're running on an older Mac, and it's struggling, you can always get FCP to create proxy files and use those for editing, switching to the original files for generating the final output.
Any comments from anyone?
