You can’t preserve them, but Compressor can add an scc file.

And you put that shot in a 25p timeline and it plays back slow, right?
If you speed it up 480% it doesn’t look normal?

What frame rate does the footage display in FCPX in the browser?

Mono to dual mono you mean? You’d need two channels for dual mono, but you have one channel, right?

[Leonore Verster] “The producers want the subtitles centered, but when two people are speaking, they want the format as per the screen grab. “
I don’t see why this would be a problem. Follow Bouke’s advice.
There are other tools available as well.

Have you tried SendtoX?
The formatting will not transfer but the text and timing should transfer as long as you use the ”Lower Third” filter and not the Boris Title3D filter in fcp7.
The text in Title 3D filters does not make it in to the xml out of fcp7.

Interlaced video is a legacy transmission and delivery format that is, and this is an over simplification, made up of lines of video. Computer monitors typicallyndont dips play interlaced video accurately.
The audio is cutting out probably because everything isn’t matching up in terms of frame rates and playback, or your hard drive can’t keep up.
There are a lot of variables to narrow down. The first thing I would do is make sure your footage and timeline frame rates and formats match to see if that helps. From there you can make more decisions like editing in a progressive Project and deinterlacjng the video if needed (FCPX can do this easily).

[Ryan Neuman] “If my timeline settings were 30fps and I shot in 30fps wouldn’t that solve the issue?”
Not if you’re shooting interlaced. You could shoot 30p if the camera allows it.
[Ryan Neuman] “What kind of cable would make my work flow faster if I stick with operating off an external hard drive?”
Is this a single drive or raid?

It looks to me like your footage and project frame rates don’t match.
I imagine you are shooting some sort of 24p with pulldown added, and you should be editing in a 29.97i timeline. If possible, you should try and shoot in actual 24p, to work in an entirely progressive format with progressive timelines. You would have to check to see if your camera is capable of 24p.
This may explain some of the slowdown you are seeing.
As far as import, AVCHD is simply a very unfriendly and processor intensive format. Using something like EditReady (https://www.divergentmedia.com/editready) to unwrap or even Transcode the footage before import may help you.
What kind of USB drive do you have connected? Is it a RAID? USB3?

Oops, sorry, Dave. I missed that part.
Yes, a Compressor purchase would be necessary to tweak settings, otherwise you’re stuck with default.
Hope you’re well, sir! 🙂
