  • FCP 7.0.3 Color processing is different!

    Dear creative cows

    I’ve got a problem with the old FCP 7.0.3, running on Mac OS X 10.6.8 (2x 3GHz Quad Core Intel Xenon / 5GB 667 Mhz)
    It seems like its color processing is quite different to what it used to be.
    In my Sequence is an orange Startscreen (R:244 G:150 B:0), when I exported the file back then in november 2015, the colors were exactly as in the original resources. When I export the exact same unedited sequence today, the color values are shifted! (After Export –> R:245 G:165 B:0)

    Does anybody know why FCP exports the colors differently and how I can fix this?
    (PS: It wasn’t down to the fact that the color space was different or anything related to that)

    Thanks a lot in advance!

    DO you have the option in the Quicktime preferences, ENABLE FINAL CUT STUDIO COLOR COMPATIBILITY checked?
