    Sounds like your fields might be reversed. Take a look in your video effects bin and see if you have an effect that will allow you to swap the fields around. Not sure if FCP ships with a filter that will do this,, off the top of my head i think Joe’s Filters has one,, Nattress might, I think there are a few others.

    before playing with field shifting/swaping you should check your sequence settings.. do they match the video? and was your video captured properly for DVPal? how was your footage captured? what is your sequence setting? Is the horizontal lines visible on you computer screen? or only the CRT you are monitoring with?

    simply shooting a mini-dv camera shouldn’t give you the lines you are describing,,

    [rafalaos] ” I exported a XML 4.0 file but FC couldn’t open it. When I tried the XML 3.0, great everything was there.

    I tried the same a month or so ago,, but only ver. XML 2 and/or 1 would work for me.. going from 6 to 5.14.

    check your capture settings,,

    your sure you shot SD (DV)?

    try DEVICE CONTROL: FireWire NTSC (***not basic)
    CAPTURE/INPUT: DV NTSC 48 KHz

    The first time I shot on a varicam I found the service menu… wasnt burried too deep,, and the joker who had the camera before me found it too and switched it to 60hrtz (amongst other things) and I had to switch it back before shooting.

    Not as easy as the average sony service menu or the 900’s,, but having no manual or previous usage of it, it took me only a couple minutes to open it up.

  • from compressor for client review I like the web download H.264 800kbps preset. file size is approx. 295.31 MB/hour and maintains full frame rate. If full frame rate isn’t a concern and dropping down to 15 frames a second is OK, the H.264 300kbps preset is nice at approx. 96.68 MB/hour. I’d stay away from this though if you have a lot of flashy cuts and fast transitions.
