editing DVD on Final Cut

[John Fishback]

Describe what you did in more detail. What codec did you export to for use in FCP?

I don’t know if all these informations are enough for you,
but here they are:

Compression: Apple Motion JPEG A
Sound: Uncompressed / stereo / auto

Frame size: 640 X 480 (4:3)

Interface scalling
Reinterlace chroma

Field Dominance: upper field first
Rotation: no

[John Fishback]

I don’t believe JPEG A is an edit codec. You should try with one of the codecs that appear in FCP’s Easy Setups. They are all edit codecs. A couple of codecs which should work are ProRes or DCVPro50 (DV50). Try one of those and see if it works better for you.

John,

I`ve tried your suggestions and some others,
but I yet didn`t get sync.
Are there any other way?

thanks
