    Hi Sean,
    I’ve seen this as well in FCS2 when opening a 5.1.4 project. It was also a 1080i project, but I’m working at 60i not 50i. All my motion effects were down to 2 or 3%. Definitely a bug I think. However, I also have opened many Standard Definition sequences and all the speed effects are correct. So maybe it’s a 1080i bug. As an aside, I had mastered this sequence a couple of weeks ago and made an XML of it then. I imported the XML into FCP 6 and all the speed effects had been switched from constant speed (5.1.4) to variable speed (FCP 6), but played the correct duration and overall speed. Very strange. Hope they fix this one. I also reimported the sequence with Automatic Duck and it came in correctly in FCP 6. So there are workarounds.
    Hope that Helps,
    Santiago

    For some reason FCS 2 is changing the speed fx from a 5.1.4 project to 2%

    Any one else having this problem?”

    Yes, if you search this forum you will find other people reporting this bug. This is the very reason we have not updated my main suite as I’m working on a show that has a lot speed changes. As soon as we clear this series off, we’ll upgrade.
