I’m having the same problem. I need to output uncompressed Quicktime HD from Premiere. Have you found a solution. In my Premiere, Quicktime only has the DV format.

I think these converted DV files are 640X480. I found the solution for the Canvas distortion is to open the file in Quicktime, open Movie Properties, set the Scaled Size to 720X480 in the Video Track Visual Settings section, then Save the change, then Import into FCP. I appreciate your input. It made me look into it a little more.

It is DV fit to window. The material is DV converted from an older file captured at 640×480 on my older nonlinear using a Targa 2000 card and Premiere on a Nubus Mac. I’ve found that all other software shows the converted DV videofile format data to be DV with 720×480 pixels. But in Item Properties in FCP, it says Frame Size is 640×480 and pixel aspect is square (it’s not supposed to). Everything else handles as if it’s DV in realtime and renders out fine at 4:3, including still frames. So I can’t tell which pixel aspect these converted DV files actually are.
