    MC 5.5.3.2 won’t import stills properly on Mac Pro 10.6.8

    Posted by Crispin Holland on January 15, 2012 at 6:06 pm

    When importing RGB stills (of a variety of formats) they come in incorrectly with the wrong colours & with sparkly edges:

    Red becomes Cyan
    Green becomes Magenta
    Blue becomes a muddy green
    black becomes grey
    white becomes black…

    The only way around it is to use AMA for the stills – which isn’t what I want to do.
    If I import a tiff with an alpha, the alpha works but the image is grey with sparkles… what’s going on?

    Anybody seen this & know how to solve it?

    Thanks, Crispin

    never seen it.

    did you check your import settings?

    did you try using Avid Pan and Zoom plugin to bring in the stills?
