    I have six sequences in a FCP project, that I want to batch export as DVCPRO HD 720p60 movie files (same as the original captured files)… I make sure that I have the proper codec selected in my batch export settings (DVCPRO HD 720p60).

    Here’s the problem … After my six files have completed rendering. I drop them back into FCP to make a multiclip. Well, two of my clips change their frame size to 1280 vs the 960 or whatever. Every time I try and render them. The other four clips are fine … I can’t figure out why they keep rendering this way. AND it’s only the same two camera angles (camera 2).

    The FCP sequences are all set the same (DVCPRO HD 720p60, square).

    Thanks,

    Still no answer though as to why this is happening, huh? I guess my client used a different brand of camera on the angle that’s been giving me problems. Wonder if that would have any influence on the issue?

    Well, the only way I able to get a consitent frame size … was by checking the re-compress option, my batch export settings. I chose only to do this on sequence that was giving me problems. Because recompressing anything isn’t whats best … but it worked.
