I’m with Kai on this, open FCP and click your timeline then hold shift + z (this should fit your timeline to the screen, then screen cap the timeline (hold down shift, command and 4 all at the same time and don’t let go) your cursor will turn into a cross hair, just drag a box around the timeline and boom done, no photoshop needed 🙂

have you tried changing the name within compressor? Just add the number 1 to the end of the name and the mark should go away…

NTSC uses rectangular pixels instead of the square pixels used on computers. so it turns out that 720×480 (rectangular tv pixels) equals 640×480 (square computer pixels.)
Always stay in 720×480 when dealing with ntsc dv video. If you want to output for playback on computer ONLY, resize to 640×480 (otherwise it may look stretched) – but then wont be optimized for tv either.
hope that helps, but by looking at your settings you should be good to go for export (especially if you accepted the resize and fit pop up in FCP.)

Maurice, agreed…always good to have backups. I don’t understand what you mean when you say ” does not matter how you rack them as long as you don’t rely on them”…who has hard drives that they don’t rely on?…and if they don’t rely on them (even a little), why do they have them?
Bob, thanks for the Hitachi recommendation, I was thinking about setting up a hot swap system and i think i will look into these drives. I’m still not sure why you have such a hatred for Lacie drives. Regardless of why you don’t like them, they haven’t failed me yet. And since “all drives fail” eventually, I’ll just buy more CHEAP lacie drives to back each other up…that way I can go buy beer with my extra money!! (not into the coke, weed thing) lol
and for anyone curious the drives have been working great mounted vertical 🙂

I bought my lacie drives over 4.5 years ago, no problems. But since you don’t seem to like them, could you recommend something that would be more reliable? I am not partial to any particular brand of drives, as long as I can hook up an esata cable to them and they don’t die I am happy. -I am looking to purchase more drives.
