    i’m currently working on an fcp5/dvcpro hd 720p/60 documentary that has an abundance of stock footage. most of the footage is coming from the stock house as quicktime files that are small. i’ve tried to cut them into a sequence and use ‘scale to sequence’ to resize them but the rendering is taking a lot longer than i expected on my dual processor g5. is there any way to resize them once(possibly convert in quicktime pro with some hd codec and then export) and make them a clip that final cut could use without extensive rendering?
    thanks, mark

    Try using Apple’s Convertions in Compressor 2 for this. QT Pro can do it too, probably similar results?

    Sounds like you haven’t been sent the final clips, only the try outs. Ask the stock house to send you the correct size.
