  • 420/30p via Log & Transfer reads in FCP as interlaced, fast fix?

    Posted by Bob Woodhead on March 23, 2010 at 1:45 pm

    Don’t shoot it very often at all, but just noticed that 420/30p via Log & Transfer reads in FCP as interlaced footage. Shows artifacts in Canvas. If I go into clip properties & change to None (interlacing) and re-edit the clip into timeline, it shows as progressive. NOTE: I’ve tested another suggestion that it’s only necessary to ensure the timeline is set for 480/30p, but from what I can see, it’s required to set the clip properties as well.

    **BUT**, I can’t find any way to do change properties of more than one clip at a time! And no options on Log & Trans for this.

    Thoughts on how not to spend a morning clicking on clip properties?

    Put your FCP Browser window into List View then scroll across till you see the Field Dominance column … select all the clip you want to change in one go then right click on one of the selection and change it to the desired value … all the selected clips will change accordingly
    Best
