Thank you Michael!

Your input helped me a lot! The avi with the divx codec was causing some problems, but after converting the footage into a quicktime format and after matching fcp sequence settings this frame doubling hasn’t occurred anymore.
Apart from that I found out, that the camera is recording in progressive mode, so I set the field dominance to none. What happens if I work with different kinds of footage, meaning interlaced and progressive? How do I make them work together?
Then there is a strange size option on the camera, 720×400. Is thsi PAL, NTSC or none of those?

Appreciate your help!!!

On this camera you can select the frame rate you wanna record in, as well as the resolution. In terms of quality and size, the highest you can get is 720×480, you can select NTSC or PAL and frame rates can be fixed manually. I always chose btw 25 or 30 frames.
I haven’t converted the footage into anything, but instead I simply imported it to fcp. The application interprets it as 720×480, shows frame rate 25, but even with PAL preselected on the camera, it would show NTSC CCIR.. .
What conversion settings should I use in compressor to make efficient use of my footage without upsizing it?

Many thanks!

Thank you very much, Erik!
Sounds like a good combination, but after playing around with Keynote last night, I’m a bit worried about its ‘audio-abilities’ and usable file formats. It’s possible to use one audio track only without being able to really synchronize it with your image sequence. Of course, I see the possibility of using sequences created in ‘Motion’, but I wonder if the presentation-image quality will be really good, as Keynote accepts QuickTime format only, if I’m not mistaken. And as I don’t have any idea about the QuickTime quality of ‘Motion’ created files, maybe you can give me some more information about it, as I don’t wanna go for the wrong solution!

Thank you!
