El Capitan will be out Sept. 30. Hopefully FCPX and Motion are updated the same day with support for Metal. I'm stoked about the possibilities for significant performance boosts for 3rd party plugins and apps such as Neat Video. Can you, the developers, share any info on what to expect?

The new metal API developed by Apple is mainly intended for a different type of tasks, not for the type of image processing done by Neat Video. Neat Video processing will most likely not benefit from that API in any appreciable way.

Still, we keep watching the development in this area and if there is a potential for improvement of Neat Video performance then we will certainly try to use it.

Thank you,
