  • PSD files in Final Cut

    Posted by Jason Prisk on June 30, 2009 at 4:40 pm

    I used to be able to open PSD files in Final Cut (before Final Cut 6) and have them show up with each layer on a different video track. Now, I cannot get it to work that way–it just comes in flattened.

    Any setting I need to change or is it something on the Photoshop end?

    If the PDS files were created in Photoshop on a Windows machine you will have to open in PS on a Mac and save as a new PSD file. That file will then open properly in a new layered timeline.
