The premise: as photography has gone digital, most of the pictures we take have become trapped on our computers, rarely seeing the light of day.

So far, the M1 can’t seem to handle that simple task.Several months ago, I wrote a three-part guide to making amazing wall art from your Mac’s photos ( part 1, part 2, part 3) - a popular series that readers told me they’d really enjoyed. All I give a damn about is when I hit save in Final Cut Pro, that the video will successfully export while I’m drinking my fucking beer. Maybe Apple should have left Intel in charge of processors and focused on something else? Ah, what the hell do I know about computers. You know the saying about how if you try to get good at everything, you end up good at nothing? You can’t be an expert on everything.

Try to edit the same 4K footage on the latest and greatest M1 Mac Mini and it’s a BIG FUCKING PROBLEM.

I can edit the same footage on an iPad Pro in LumaFusion and it’s NO problem. I can edit this same footage on the iPhone in iMovie or LumaFusion and it’s NO problem.

To be honest, I’m leaning toward the old i9. It’s either wait for the MacBook Pro with the M1X, or grab an older 16″ MacBook Pro with the i9 and max out the RAM. It’s better for me to go back to editing on this old MacBook Pro from 2017. If the 8GB of unified memory (which is supposedly magic) can’t handle 4K video, or if it does, it’s much slower, then why didn’t I just buy any older MAC with 16GB of RAM and call it a day? Again, I’m just not impressed with this M1. I’ve been accomplishing these same tasks on a daily basis (and much faster) with a machine from 2017. However, I don’t think that’s the Holy Grail or that it should be the excuse. Obviously I should have went with the 16GB version.It’s not the outside temp throttling the CPU.

I moved the computer into a small room with air-con on full blast. I first thought the issues were caused by the room being too hot. These quirks are regardless of ambient temperature.It will use around 7.5 GB of RAM and the usual 8% of the processor. If I do a re-start of the computer immediately prior to opening Final Cut Pro (no apps opened other than Final Cut Pro and Activity Monitor), the computer will not use any Swap memory while saving a video.

I usually have to drop it down to 1080P to get it to save. To make things short, this damn thing won’t reliably save a 4K 60 FPS video.

If you are saving a shorter 4K video with footage from only 1 camera, the processor will run up to 80% or so during the save and is usually successful. This will often result in a Share Failed error to where I have to start over. The computer will use approximately 1.81 MB of Swap memory. It takes FOREVER to save a video (if it succeeds). This is with only Final Cut Pro and Activity Monitor open. If you are saving a long video in 4K (over 20 minutes or so), or, if you have footage from two different cameras regardless of the duration, the processor will only run at roughly 8% the entire time.So, here’s more of what I’ve learned about this M1. So far, I’m not seeing the performance jump. At least I know it will do the job.Įvery darn YouTube video on M1 Macs claim these things are like magic. Maybe I’ll pick up an Intel MacBook Pro and max out the RAM. If I can’t whip this thing into shape, it’s back to the drawing board. It must belong to a damn union.Īny fixes or suggestions would be appreciated, my friends. But, the problem is that the CPU won’t work at, or even near full strength. So, when working in Final Cut Pro, I can’t have any other apps running. The RAM is max’d out if you open one tab in Google Chrome while Final Cut Pro is open. It’s only using around 8% of the CPU while saving a video in Final Cut Pro, and is often giving the old Share Failure warning to where I’ve got to start over. This thing is taking much longer to render 4K60 and 4K30 videos that are 1 hour or more in duration.

My expectations were that this thing would smoke my 2017 15″ MacBook Pro (2.9 GHz Quad Core Intel i7, 16GB RAM, Radeon Pro 560). I bought a Mac Mini M1 with 8GB of RAM and 512GB SSD.
