Good help, thanks…I’ll try using the Apple 90 min DVD preset and see what we get…

Appreciate your thoughts – with Frame Control ON the Text looks good, with it off they look terrible…but you’re right re: deinterlacing…can’t find a way to turn that off if Frame C is ON…

Ah, didn’t know I should render out of Motion…does that make them QT files, then just bring those into FCP?

Actually Smooth cam did a terrible (and very lengthy) job on the tests I ran, MOTION did much better re: smoothing out the wobbles…I simply right click on the clip in the FCP timeline, send to MOTION, it opens just that clip with its proper length then I save and it appears in FCP timeline…but maybe I should make them movs first, yes?

Thanks for the help…yeah the odd size is I guess the 16 x 9 bit, I bring it into Compressor using the SD DVD 720 x 480, then it makes it into that odd size.

Maybe your thought on HD tape would work best…

Frame Controls off coupled with a lighter blue really helps, thanks guys

So are you saying just make my timeline HDV, not Pro Res, set the render to Pro Res and it’ll look good?

Slight update: I also have a few 1280x x720 and XDcam shots in the timeline…should I still set seq to HDV or keep Pro Res?
