1080p30 back from Color as ProRez HQ needs RT rendering??
by Denis Devlin 3 years ago
After using the send to Color menu in FCP, a clip is rendered in Color to the ProRez HQ codec (without changing size or anything else). The "de-interlace" option is left unchecked in the Color project

by Denis Devlin 3 years ago
I didn't find anything in the Color form that seemed relevant. The work around seems to be: 1) Render in Color with " de-interlace " unchecked. 2) Send back to FCP using the export codec (ProRez HQ) f

Compressor changes clip duration when exporting MPEG-2
by Denis Devlin 3 years ago
I would expect 110460 frames (60P = 59.94 fps) to convert to 55230 frames (MPEG-2 down convert for NTSC SD dvd, 29.97 fps). Instead the conversion produces only 55173 frames. I am using Compressor 3.0

Hi Denis, This post should go to the FC Forum instead of the XDCAM. I don't belong to the NTSC world, but for what you say (2 seconds difference in a 1 2 hour clip) some where you have a problem about

A cautionary tale. I backed my project folder which includes the project file and a subfolder containing all captured media files to an attached firewire drive. Then moving the firewire drive to anoth
