Thanks for the info,
anyone else use color profiles?

[Martin Stacey]

yep, i get this too, with a mouse. and i know loads of others that have it too. it only seems to affect mac’s as far as i can tell.

[Martin Stacey]

yeah, cheers for the help anyway.

[Martin Stacey]

thanks, the timecode answer is the one most useful.

i can’t believe you can’t do that. final cut is making after fx look like it’s fully featured. which is a feat in itself!

[Martin Stacey]

I’m also rendering out of after fx. It seems a bit stupid to render HD when it’s being broadcast SD. what sort of workflow does anyone suggest?

so just to clarify:

i have 1080i dvcpro footage. i will be combining this footage with after fx renders.
delivery will be SD 720×576 anamorphic.

At the moment i was going to edit in HD then just export a SD version for delivery. Would it just be better for me to re-render everything at SD?

thanks

[Martin Stacey]

thanks!

[Martin Stacey]

nah, that selects the razor blade tool.

[Martin Stacey]

cheers!
it’s working now, i used the blackmagic 1080i 25hz one and it worked fine. is there any other settings i should be aware of?

[Martin Stacey]

right, i’ve installed the new decklink driver, and i have put it on the easy setup you mention and turned on down convertion but it still wont play out. i just get a still frame.

[Martin Stacey]

i’m using final cut 4.5 and it doesn’t have that easy set up.
and i also don’t have that option in the decklink prefs.

cheers for the help thou.
