It’s been a problem since upgrading to 5.0… plus every update since then.

Save, Quit, restart FCP. Sometimes closing the timeline and re-opening it will also work. It’s some random bug that happens to us often.

thanks!!!!! exactly what I was looking for,

FCP 4.5 always looked terrible with a widescreen filter. assuming you didn’t do any DVE moves, setting your fields to none gave you the crispest letterbox edges.

try Sequence Settings -> Fields = none,
-
System Prefs – > Decklink -> Black video output to deck in Capture = on

I get it from older media… works totally fine… so i wouldn’t sweat it.

Thanks for catching that typo.

Ha ha, I didn’t realize it would start a mini flame war.
HDV is alright for what it is. Some cameras look better than other, and for corporate stuff it’s just fine.
I hate HDV in post for how unwiedly it is. As a format for editing I’d rather stangle myself. Have it converted to something like DVPRO-HD or even DV anamorphic for offline editing. Personally I would look into the Varicam if you can afford it.
We’re rigged for D5, HDCAM, and DVCPRO-HD here, which plays very well with all our other pro gear. Just recently I got some footage shot on Canon XL-H1 in 25F mode – which looks pretty good – but I don’t even want to start ranting about how f’ing difficult it was to get into FCP in any sort of useful editing format….

Are you producing shows or just post-producing??? IMHO, HDV is a piece of wotheless junk in post-production 🙂 I much prefer DVPRO-HD.
