  • Problem poor display quality on FCPX from PAL PD10 MINI-DV CAMERA

    Posted by Hans Lucas on January 9, 2019 at 5:01 pm

    Hi,
    I’m facing a problem with the image display in FCP X 10.4.4 running on Mojave 10.14.1.
    My rushes come from Mini-DV tapes (recorded with PD10 camera –> DVC PAL), and they look quite fine when i open them in Quicktime 10.5 and very ugly when I view them in FCP X, no matter how I import them (wether I copy them to my library or not, or create optimized media or not… They always look quite ugly (see screenshots attached, one is done in QT, the other in FCP X)).
    This is just a viewing problem, because video is fine again after exporting an apple Pro Res, but still quite annoying when editing…
    I have of course chosen Better Quality and Optimized/Original media in the View menu.
    I have also tried to change the Field Dominance Override in the inspector settings of the video, but it’s not convincing either.
    I have to deinterlace, not working either.

    See QT inspector screenshot attached, and various FCP X screenshots as well.
    Thank you for your help if you come up with any idea !
