    That’s not unusual. Check outputs back to a monitor. Generally speaking it’s the preview display that’s off, not the actual footage.

    Yeah but you’re gauging this on your desktop in FCP which is just a proxy preview. What do final exports to full HD resolution QuickTime look like.

    Yeah- that’s a long known display bug/issue in FCP 7. Unfortunately will never be fixed now that FCP 7 is end of lifed by FCP X.
