Thanks Dave. I give it a try.

Thanks for your advice. Is there a way to resize them in FCP or do I need to take them back into Photoshop?

I’ll check in to increasing my RAM as well.

Have a great day.

Pixel sizes vary but approximately 2000 x 3000 and approximately 6 MB. I don’t need to zoom in much.

I have 2 GB DDR SDRAM.

Should I make them smaller TIFFs?

I went into capture settings and changed the “limit capture now” box to 60 minutes. I think that should work?

[Ann Lukacs]

NEVER MIND. I FIGURED IT OUT.

That was it! I unchecked the anamorphic box and it got rid of the letterbox. However, in the viewer it looks like unsqueezed anamorphic and the “fit to window” comes up 104%. I unchecked the “show as sq. pixels” and it looks ok. Is this right?

Any idea how the anamorphic column got checked in the browser?

Thanks for your help.

[Ann Lukacs]

That did it. I guess FCP got as confused as I get sometimes. Thanks.

[Ann Lukacs]

That did it! Thanks.

I actually have two external hard drives on the computer. Forgot to mention those.

Here is where I think I messed up. The media is saved in a folder in the capture scratch on an external hard drive. The sequence and the PTVTmpfiles are being saved in a folder under Render File on the Media HD on the system.

What do I do?
