  • FCP – PC = why so dark

    Posted by Jlw5150 on October 3, 2005 at 12:31 pm

    I’m embarrased to even write anything here as i’m sooo fresh to this…this might not even be the right place.

    In short – made some videos, edited them in FCP – changed them to AVi files and similar to stream = when viewed on PC they are very dark.

    I’m told that this is because of the way the MAC deals with colour in a diff way to PC. = how can i make them look good on PCs? My sunny days in Cambridge UK are lookng like rainy days in Clacton (not attractive).

    Thanks in advance, and go easy on me, Jason
