åMedia volume name: The name of a mounted volume, disk image, or folder. If you have write access to a media volume, you can change the volume name in the Finder.

åMedia file: A file containing one or more video or audio tracks of sample data. Media files contain your actual footage (also called content or essence). Associated video and audio content (for example, interview footage including both image and sound) may be stored together in a single file or as separate files. Separated video and audio must be associated together via a metadata file (P2 cards have an XML file for this purpose).

Many media files are stored in a general-purpose container format, such as QuickTime or MXF, which then contains tracks or streams of video, audio, and metadata content. AIFF, Wave, TIFF, and JPEG are also examples of types of media files.

åMXF: A media file standard for wrapping video or audio and associated metadata into a single container file. An MXF file is similar to a QuickTime file; they are both file formats for storing media and metadata about the media. For more information, see “About MXF” on page 66.

åMetadata: Generally, secondary data describing the primary data. In the case of media, the primary data is the video and audio samples themselves, and the metadata is descriptive information attached to it, such as shooting time, GPS coordinates, camera operator name, shot and take number, sample rate, video codec used, and so on.

åProxy media file: A low-resolution copy of a media file, usually stored as an MPEG-4 file. A proxy can be used for fast transfer and preview of footage. Not all formats record proxy files.

åClip: An object in Final Cut Pro that refers to—or points to—a media file on disk.

åReel name: A property stored in each clip in your Final Cut Pro project to remind you which media volume your clip’s original media is stored on. A clip’s reel name is especially important when you are reingesting a clip and you need to find the volume containing the original media.

åSpanned clip: A single clip that consists of two or more media files. Spanned clips are created whenever you record a single shot that exceeds the capacity of your storage media (or, in the case of P2 cards, if your footage exceeds 4 GB). In this case, the camcorder seamlessly continues recording to a new media file on the next available storage medium. For more information, see “Working with Spanned Clips” on page 89.

The Apple iPhone 6, released in September 2014, marked a significant evolution in Apple's smartphone lineup. This model introduced a larger screen and a sleeker design, setting the stage for future devices in the iPhone series.

One of the most notable features of the iPhone 6 was its display. With a 4.7-inch Retina HD screen, the iPhone 6 offered a resolution of 1334 x 750 pixels, delivering vibrant colors and sharp images. This screen size was a departure from previous models, appealing to users who favored larger displays for better viewing experiences, whether for gaming, watching videos, or browsing the web.

The design of the iPhone 6 was another highlight. It featured a slim, curved aluminum body that not only made it more aesthetically pleasing but also improved its ergonomics. Weighing just 129 grams, the phone was light yet robust. The placement of volume buttons, the power button, and the headphone jack was thoughtfully designed to enhance usability.

Under the hood, the iPhone 6 was powered by the A8 chip, a 64-bit dual-core processor that offered impressive performance and energy efficiency. Coupled with the M8 motion coprocessor, the device could effectively handle demanding apps and services while optimizing battery life, providing users with a smooth experience throughout the day.

The camera capabilities of the iPhone 6 were also advanced for its time. It featured an 8-megapixel rear camera with optical image stabilization and a f/2.2 aperture, allowing for clearer low-light photography. The front-facing camera was improved as well, offering a 1.2-megapixel resolution and support for 720p HD video, making it great for selfies and video calls.

Connectivity options included LTE support, enabling faster download speeds, and Wi-Fi calling, which allowed users to make calls over Wi-Fi networks, enhancing communication in areas with poor cellular coverage. The iPhone 6 also introduced the Apple Pay feature, allowing users to make secure transactions using their devices.

In terms of software, the iPhone 6 originally came with iOS 8, which boasted new features such as HealthKit and HomeKit, further integrating technology into daily life. Regular software updates ensured that users could enjoy the latest features and security enhancements well into the device's lifecycle.

Overall, the iPhone 6 distinguished itself with a combination of innovative design, powerful performance, and a user-friendly experience, solidifying Apple's position in the smartphone market and paving the way for future iterations in the iPhone lineup.
