    hi,

    i have a 720 x 480 comp (dv ntsc) in AE. when i import it into my final cut pro project (same specs as AE), the text looks rough. the animation quicktime (out of AE) however looks great. so its something with the import.

    thoughts?

    thanks,

    jimmy

    Are you judging by an output to a broadcast monitor or the preview screens inside of FCP?

    Also, DV is a lossy codec that isn’t great with graphics so a lossless Animation codec graphic rendered from AE will always look far better than the same graphic once it has been dropped down to DV.
