  1. Use Boris Title 3D instead of the standard text tool. It comes with FCP, not an add on.

  2. When your done editing, go to Sequence>>Settings and change the compressor to DV50, then re-render the entire timeline.

  Yours is the 3rd posting this weekend to ask why your video quality doesn’t look good. the answers are always the same:

  1- You’re not working in a high quality codec
  2- You’re not monitoring your picture properly
  3- Both of the above

  I told you exactly how to do the proper steps in #2 above. If I meant for you to use ProRes HQ I would have told you to use it. Just follow the instructions.

  [rui carvalho] “i just have dvcpro50 what shoud i do?? “

  Use DVCPro50. Apple had it mislabeled as DV50 for nearly ten years, I guess they’ve finally fixed it.
