I’m not pressed for hard drive space, so the question is mostly about the anxiety around software updates. iMovie wants to update. I’ve had this laptop for a long time, and it’s precursor since 2014. I have never opened iMovie. _Poll ([view on site](https://forum.logik.tv/t/should-i-remove-imovie-from-my-laptop/4630/1))_ ---

To be clear, are we talking about the actual application iMovie? Or is it a euphemism for FCP X ---

I used to love the trailers it could make using some stock music and adding a few clips. Good fun when the kids are young. Not sure I would use it for anything now. Although it probably has something like the most amazing rolling shutter fix anyone has ever seen! ---

Fun fact: the guy that wrote the colour warper and, I think, the 3D keyer works at Apple now. ---

I use it on my old macbook laptop for capturing my old miniDV and VHS tapes collection via firewire and miniDV camera haha. It was the only (free) software I could find that recognised my old camera 😃 But even for that it’s limited, can only export widescreen. So I get black bars around my exports. 😏 ---

The vast array of keyers in flame is a field of greener grass in every direction you look. Master Key’s great, but hides all the sliders until you click on the correct pixel (maybe I just want to _see_ if ‘range E’ does anything without finding a pixel that qualifies). RGB keyer has lovely softness, but is rarely smart enough to be a one-stop-shop. 3d keyer’s sort of the opposite, getting nice hard mattes but often getting too obsessed with the grain to be useful in and of itself. ---

Can you gamma up so I can see its not a comp? 🙂 ---

I was gonna do a video capture but fucked up the first one so then my trash had iMovie and a screencap in it. That undermined the gag and I could not figure out how to I delete just iMovie so I could delete the screencap and I didn’t feel like using a command line rm to do any of this. Somehow I managed to delete the screencap, or move it out of the way, but the screen space felt untidy and uploading a video felt like a lot of work so I gave up and just snapped two stills. If you’d like, I can set up a team viewer later so you can poke around and confirm it’s gone. ---
