Apple has posted software updates for Final Cut Pro, Final Cut Server and Compressor to their support site. The 138MB FCP and Compressor download brings FCP to version 6.0.4 and includes improvements to the XDCAM HD422 sequence preset and fixes a minor issue when capturing HDV clips.

The more significant change applies to integration with Final Cut Server, a 50MB download which has been updated to v1.1. The FC Server update, which also requires an upgrade to Quicktime 7.5, addresses several issues. The first pertains to the checking in and out of Final Cut Pro projects. Server v1.1 now provides an FCP binary file (as opposed to XML) which solves several issues, including corruption of project preferences that have intermittently been known to occur when a project is checked in or out. A second change enables automatic updates to FC Server assets when changed in another application (i.e. Final Cut Pro). This applies to the other apps in the Studio suite, however media files for Motion, DVD Studio Pro and Soundtrack Pro still have to be uploaded manually.
