problems with DPX-Sequence in FInal Cut

[Gary Adcock]

OK

have you checked that the DPX files are playable? do they open in Photoshop?

what happens with GT? ( and which version the new 3.0 version needs 6.02 to run correctly)

it is odd that Clipster does 720 files – are you sure????

Most of the off-camera devices do not record faster than 30p

hi,

i have a GT 2.5.11. We converted 1080i to 720p/50 with an Alchimist and then built the DPX files in the Clipster. I did the update to 6.02 in Final cut but there is no change.
any ideas?

Settings are:

GT:DPX-InputConversion: Auto Detect
Aspect Ratio: None
Alpha Ignore
DPX-Output: 10-bit Standard LOG-LIN
Frame digit Pad: 4;
No changes else,

FC:

Sequence: HDTV 720p
Pixel: Square (i hope i translate it the right way, as german version)
Quicktime video: 10-bit Uncompressed 422

i have it in the bin and did double-click -> nothing happend
i put it in the timeline and rendered.
results are the same.

:-(((

My guess is something is wrong with the DPX files- I have never seen a clipster do 1280 x 720 frames.

what do the files look like in Photoshop?

Hi,

“

I was very specific

I asked how they looked in PHOTOSHOP- graphic converter allows for non standardized DPX and Targa files- Photoshop will not open anything but a legal DPX file.
