    I have a layered PSD file I’ve imported into FCP and I want it to open with all the layers on each Track of video.

    For some reason it won’t open that way. I’ve got a setting or something wrong. What to do?

    THanks???

    double click it on the timeline and another timeline
    will open with the layers.

    I’m having the same problem. Are you using Photoshop CS3?

    I’ve searched through all relevant settings in FCP and CS3 and I still have no idea why it wont work. We never had this issue with CS2. Hopefully someone helps us out soon…

    I solved my problem this morning. Hopefully it will help you out. FCP does not accept 16bit video OR .psd files. I changed all of my .psd to 8bit, reconnected in FCP and they work just like we want them to.
