    Sorry Alex,

    “changing your compressor from HDV to ProRes”

    … means, rendering/exporting from my HDV 720p, 23,98 sequence using ProRes HQ? taking everything to a ProRes HQ sequence and render/export from there? or setting something in Compressor?

    Thanks again, guys!

    Thanks guys for the help.

    I think that there were probably problems with my system since after troubleshooting my FCP texts look ok.

    Related to my PS text, I´m still reading…

    If I get to fix it, I will post the solution here.

    Hi Omar – sorry, what I said about compressor settings may have been misleading. I’m not talking about Compressor (the software) I’m talking about your actual sequence compressor/render settings. Go to Sequence>Settings (or press CMD+0) and under ‘Compressor’ change it from HDV to ProRes (personally I don’t use ProRes HQ as I don’t see enough difference in quality to justify the higher file sizes, but it’s up to you.)

    [Omar Estrada] “… means, rendering/exporting from my HDV 720p, 23,98 sequence using ProRes HQ”
    CORRECT.

    Thanks Alex!

    I´m following the advices to test the quality after exporting… I´ve been trying weird walkarounds as I love the “alternative logic” of the great editors out there, like trying vector objects and stuff, but I still don´t get a significant improvement.

    So, that´s maybe the quality that it is.

    Thanks again, everybody!

    Well guys!

    Once I was able to process all the information I found about how to improve graphics in our FCP projects, I solved the problem.

    Thanks a lot
