CC is line 21 and it’s encoded allowing the viewer to decode at will. Sue, if I were you I’d seek your answers from the closed captioning house.

Thanks Thom. But can someone else weigh in on this?

Why does FCP 6 have settings for HDV 1080 p24 and p25, but not p30 (other than in Compressor – where I’ll probably use ProRes down the line when finished editing)?

Is HDV 1080i60 really the way for me to go (NTSC 29.97) without compromising quality or future of project?

When authored to DVD, will it still be progressive 30, or interlaced 60? (Does this even matter if I’m achieving a 30p look?!)

Thanks again!

Adam

Thanks for all your efforts, I really need to solve this mystery – and fast! I normally use the 3 way corrector and bring down the highlights, adjusting each clip individually. I was trying to save time on this project. So much for that.

To answer your questions, Bret, the filter checkbox IS selected in the current sequence, not just overall. And other filters, such as sepia, are rendering fine. Additionally, I’m processing whites as whites.

To reiterate the problem, the raw footage registers whites to the max, 107 on the histogram. When I bring this down with either the broadcast safe filter, or the color corrector 3 way – or using both together – such that the histogram and other scope readings read under 100 and the range check gives me a green checkmark, THEN RENDER, my whites shift back into the hot zone, now peaking at about 103-105.

I’ve trashed the prefs to no avail. I wish I could attach screenshots but seems the cow won’t allow that. PLEASE HELP, SOMEONE!

Thanks, SC

Nope. It’s checked and files are indeed being rendered.
