[Craig Seeman] “Some people use plugins.”
They do. Not all of them using Continuum Complete. I don’t. The OP doesn’t mention Continuum Complete.

I mean in this thread. How do we go from asking if FCPX performance under Mojave to Boris Continuum Complete?

[Rob Postroz] “The camera I shot the footage on was a canon xl1.”
The XL1 had a “Frame Mode” that was, frankly, not the best way to film on that camera. It was a workaround “de-interlacing” in camera (as opposed to the DVX100 which would give you an actual 29.97 progressive) that caused a resolution loss of around 25%, which I’m sure you’re already aware. However, the footage is still interlaced, not actually progressive. It’s simply trying to emulate the look of progressive within interlaced (as kooky as that sounds).
[Rob Postroz]I recall many years ago when working in an older version of FCP that these lines would appear when editing this type of footage, but the solution just seemed to be to check a box in the viewer (like view in highest quality or something).
Have you tried doing this in FCPX? There are similar options. I would also render out a section and see if it still looks the same.

Where was Continuum Complete mentioned?

First of all, Rob, forget everything that has been suggested. To start with, what is the camera these clips were recorded with?

[Chris Wright] “You would think h.264 would have more visible macroblocking due to codec technology as prores uses wavelet encoding”
ProRes does not use wavelet encoding.

How large are your clips in the Original folder?

[ryan elder] “Okay thanks, but I tried that before, and they said that they cannot make real locations look near as good, cause I have no control. “
Then they weren’t actually set designers.
-
[ryan elder] “In that case, what do you do to get locations look good?”
Hire a set designer.

[Warren Eig] “I’ve shot at 1/60 and I don’t like the motion blur. It’s personal taste.”
I’m sure you think you don’t. $100 says you can’t tell the difference in a blind test. Care to put money on the line?
