  Hi,i am Abhishek and i am facing a problem in ma FCP software.The problem is with the output monitor(canvas).The size of the video on the outpit monitor is appearing very small,even when i click on to the “Fit to window” option the size gets very small.I have set the Standard option in the Arrange menu but the problem still persists.When i zoom it to 100% i dont get the video in a better quality.So plz suggest what should i do to make the size of the video appropriate on the canvas as it is on the viewer.

  Regards

  Abhishek

  Hi Abhishek

  That rather sounds like you have edited SD footage unscaled into an HD sequence … could that be possible? For best (most predictable) results, you need to ensure that your source footage and sequence setting match.

  What are your source clip properties? (Select one of the clips and press CMD 9 to view the clip’s Item Properties > Format). And what are your sequence settings? (Select the sequence in the Browser and again press CMD 9 to view the sequence’s Item Properties > Format, or press CMD ZERO to view the Sequence Settings window)

  Cheers
  Andy
