FCP and image files (PNG and TIFF)
I am having trouble with images in final cut pro. I exported a screen shoot from some HDV footage … it comes out 1440 x 1080. Put it in my image editor (gimp in this case, but get same results from Photoshop). I resized it to 1920 x 1080, used it to make a matte (need to get cover up something in my image) … when I re-import it to FCP the matte doesn’t fit quite right (its perfect in my image editor). (BTW: The image has transparent sections in it.) What’s going on? It isn’t that the image has to be 1440 x 1080 …. you need to resize it to 1920 x 1080 … the matte is off just slightly … five percent say … I could fiddle with it to get it to fit, but it seems that this process should work with out “hand” adjustments.
