Hi Michael, yeah i know the 5D doesnt shoot Pro Res, i think the shooter im working with is a bit of an a-hole. I was meant to receive a drive of Pro Res 422 clips for the edit, instead i received one 32GB file of all the clips combined, squashed to 4:3. I did what jeff suggested though and now the footage looks right (16:9)

I have 5 shooters material to work with. all shot at 1920 x 1080 on either 5Ds & 60Ds and one GoPro. Can you advise what the best sequence settings should be?

Thanks for the help guys.

Hey Mike,

Im actually using an MP3, so maybe thats my first problem.
Beyond that though its as if FCP isnt locating the media at all. I noticed that my drive doesnt appear in my finder – only on the desktop.

Possible crappy drive issues? Im using a 500GB Verbatim USB2 drive.

Im starting to think it’s a combination of a) mp3, b) crappy drive c) sequence settings….

its seems a few people i’ve spoken to have a problem where every time you open a project the files all immediately un-render.

anyone else got ideas?

cheers,
A.
