FCP/QT files in fcp vs. qt
When I make a export -“save movie as a qt self-contained” and play the resulting file in a qt player I notice a loss of the richness of the color….if I open the same file in fcp on the same computer I get all of the color of the original from the timeline…..is there anyway to overcome this color degrading? is something wrong with my settings?

Just to add – there’s been no color damage – just QuickTime showing it to your correctly. If you brought it back to FCP or into Compressor – everything would be fine.

Disregard the last post…I just found the answer…I was using qt on a computer that didnt have fcp so that setting didnt show up….
