  uncompressed 8 bit 422 medium quality? why medium?

  Posted by Andrew Smith on September 18, 2009 at 3:40 pm

  Hi all,

  Any ideas why FCP renders out uncompressed 8 bit 422 at medium quality with no option to change the medium to high? the project is uncompressed full 1920 1080 25p HD from source and running out a QT for storage you cant change from medium to high quality, the file looks great, just an annoying little thing, any ideas?

  Thanks

  Andy

  It’s not really medium, that’s just the way the codec shows up, so don’t sweat it. It’s always been that way, and always will be.
