  • Apple Prores 422 Crossdissolve or fade to black issue

    Posted by Jesus Silva on January 27, 2011 at 1:02 am

    Hello there,
    I’m working on a project 1920×1080 23.98 Apple Prores 422 on FCP 6.0.6, running QKtime Version 7.6.4 (518.35), MAC OS X 10.5.8, 2.66 Quadcore machine, 8GB RAM.

    Sequence setting at matching the footage format. Video processing at 10b-bit.

    The material was shot with the Canon 5D at the same specs.
    Brought in FCP thru log and transfer.

    After exporting a highress self-contained Qktime I have notice there is a weird effect on the cross-dissolve. There is a small jump on the video levels (maybe gamma?) when entering the dissolve. I have also tried to do the fade manually with the opacity but with the same results, also tried to change the sequence video processing to 8-bit and no luck either.

    Any leads?!

    THanks!!!

    Check to make certain that “full” is checked in the Render All menu, then re-render the sequence.

    Possibly color sync?

    Checked! Still the same no difference, there is a jump on the image levels or what looks like the a gamma change when the cross-dissolve comes in. ???
