  DVCPRO HD and Quicktime 7.1.5

  Hi,

  Got an interesting problem.

  Have been working with DVCPRO HD 1080i50 timeline cutting videos taken from the Firestore. No problem whatsoever.

  After finishing the edit, I want to archive the final programs as a DVCPRO HD 1080i file for backup.

  So I mark in and mark out in the timeline and export QUICKTIME movie (no recompression whatsoever). When I bring in the movie after exporting back into FCP, and placed it in the same timeline of the original movie. End up i needed to RENDER the movie!

  This was not happening until the recent upgrade to Quicktime 7.1.5.

  Somehow, I checked the settings of the movie from FCP, the movie is exported as Aspect Ratio: Square Pixel but older movie exported is Aspect Ratio: DVCPRO HD (1440×1080).

  Even the video size is different: the new video size is 1920×1080 while the usual video size from old exported movie is: 1440×1080.

  Anyone can try this on their computer and share the experience?

  System:
  MacPro, Blackmagic HD Extreme Card, 4GiG Ram, FCP 5.1.4, BM Driver 6.1.
