  • Higher resolution final cut X?

    Posted by Lasse schwanenflügel Piasezky on December 30, 2011 at 8:18 pm

    I am working with a theatre project, and I want to project my film on two projectors. I bought the Matrox DoubleHead2Go to split up my film into two outputs. I want the resolution to be 2160X540 this is no problem in my old version of Final Cut, I just change the resolution in the sequence settings. But I don’t know what to do in Final Cut X?! Please help me:-)

    Custom resolutions are not possible in FCP. You can only make standard resolution projects.

    You might be able to set up a large size project. Edit your media allowing for the frame size, and then crop for output in Compressor. A very weak workaround I’m afraid.

    All the best,

    Tom
