Unwanted borders on cropped & resized images
I just noticed an interesting problem with another of our editors. He pointed out that certain elements were showing superwhite borders. The two that I’m noticing most is a JPG that was resized and another quicktime that was cropped. Both of these have white (100IRE) backgrounds and sit ontop of white (100IRE) footage/color.
The problem is that looking at the waveform and the video monitor both show above white peaks around these elements. If I look at the original JPG and quicktime, these borders aren’t there. I can only assume that this has something to do with FCP interpolating the edges of the images and compositing. What I can’t figure out is why a 100IRE ontop of a 100IRE produces a 106-100IRE border.
Has anyone encountered this or figured out a way to fix it? We’ve tried using broadcast safe and color correction ontop of both the elements and a nested sequence. The border is still visible.

You sound like you’re past the basic answers, but just in case, have you made sure you’re not rendering whites to superwhite in the render options?
Just thought I’d check…
