Importing DVD into FCP

[Walter Biscardi]

[Mick Haensler] “In other words, does converting the DVD footage to a .mov file via software yield better results than simply capturing via component.”

Nope, quality is about the same, but what you’re doing yields a more FCP friendly file that works better.

Thanks for your help

Probably because the file doesn’t match your sequence settings.
