Thank you SO much both of you, much appreciated. I won’t be so paranoid about the “Hide original clips” tick box in the future.

HELPS – you can say that again! Wow, I just watched their video for Face Indexing and that looks just perfect for me. Certainly it’ll be INFINITELY faster and easier than my current clumsy approach going through MANY hours of video. MANGE TAK for the suggestion Mads (my wife comes from southern Sweden so we often pass through CPH).

Oh yes, the flicker filter could be interesting, thanks. Actually I made a very short extract for the client of that particular dramatic moment in the show (with some colour matching done) and he didn’t mention what I had noticed so I might get away with it as it stands. All the same, I’ll try that filter!

Actually I wasn’t considering making the 1080 footage go to a bigger frame, perhaps I didn’t explain my situation clearly. And yes, it is Multicam project, as mentioned, but my concern is for the exported project where this difference between the cameras is sort of noticeable – but not too bad. What I was hoping is that someone might be able to suggest a Compressor setting (or some other utility) that would make the codecs and frame sizes closer to each other or maybe even the same before I reassemble the Multicam project and edit. As far as my inexperienced eye can see, the differences between the two video files are frame size and codec? It’s quite possible that I’m asking for the impossible as although I’m very much at ease with FCP, I’ve never noticed this rippling effect on the footage from my action camera before which is possibly due to the unique lighting situation? So, anyone got some Compressor settings suggestions…?

Thanks for the idea Devrim and I’ll get back onto it tomorrow as it’s way past my bedtime now. 🙂

Hello Devrim – thanks for your concerns but having had this explained, swapped between the options and generally messed around I’m pretty happy with the behaviour.
I’m not happy with the inconsistencies in FCP behaviour surrounding the use of the Ken Burns effect on video clips but that is for another thread on another day 😉 One day I’ll take the time to write it up.

I hoped there would be a way – many thanks Doug!

Thanks for that Eric. Actually, it’s turning out to be pretty impressive. I was videoing a local amateur production with a variety of different (but almost similar) camcorders all over the hall and quite a lot of the time it’s giving good results! Amazing!

If only there was such a simple command to work on kids at bedtime…. 😉
