highest bit depth with FCP

With a speed change that slight, I would say it’s going to be okay to wing it, and since it’s for your own review anyway and not final tape layoff, it’ll be all good. If the clips were longer (like tens of minutes or an hour or two) the audio would probably drift.
Why this works in AJA TV and not FCP, I don’t know. Must be about how the different applications treat the signal.

Well the reason i couldnt get the 30 to play on the tv was because i didnt see an easy set up that was uncompressed 10bit 30fps.
So I think I am back to the same issue we left with last night. Either edit in 59.94 and get the display on the tv but then when delivering the final to the client I suppose to should render as 30fps? or should I be working with 29.97?
Or edit at 30fps and just have to render out the whole timeline to be able to view it in AjA tv.
I will have you know though I had my comp guys deliver me a v210 and I set up my seq 59.94 10bit and it looks so much better! Even after rendering it out of FCP. When exporting it I did File >export>quicktime is that wrong? Should I use quicktime conversion? or Compressor?

AJa does not provide 720p29.97 or 720p30.0 easy setups, but you can easily make one.
[christina rule] “Either edit in 59.94 and get the display on the tv but then when delivering the final to the client I suppose to should render as 30fps? or should I be working with 29.97?
“You don’t want to edit in 59.94 at all. You make a sequence of 720p30 or 720p29.97 and a video output of 59.94. But if you edit @ 720p30.0 you won’t see it out of FCP. I still don’t know why you are working at 30.0 or why your client wants 30.0, but maybe they have their reasons. If it’s for a video game, then at some point is going to go to 59.94 Hz in NTSC.
[christina rule] “Or edit at 30fps and just have to render out the whole timeline to be able to view it in AjA tv. “
That’s one way to do it, but set your sequene to 30.0 and not 59.94 otherwise FCP wil render 2:2 pulldown in to your sequence and your subsequent exports.
[christina rule] “I will have you know though I had my comp guys deliver me a v210 and I set up my seq 59.94 10bit and it looks so much better!”
Good! I would still keep your timeline @ 30.0 or 29.97.
[christina rule] “When exporting it I did File >export>quicktime is that wrong?”
That is exactly right.

The whole 30 fps I am going to have to have a discussion with my boss about.. it doesnt make sense to me either. When Im setting up an easy set up, or rather creating one should I noticed the video processing tab was set as “render in 8-bit YUV” shouldnt it be Render 10-bit material in high precision yuv?

If working in 10bit…yes.

What do you mean by output? You mean export out of FCP? Why would you do that?
Simply Export > Quicktime Movie > Current Settings.

You won’t see it on your monitor.
