    Jupp – my footage is def 50i, and I was suprised that my project settings said 25p. So, after what you said earlier on – project settings should be changed to 25i, especially if I’m going for the dvd alternative.

    Ok – why is mirroring through apple tv better than hdmi cable? I will still play it from QT, or do you mean another player?

    With my other camera I shoot in 50i, (ok 25i) and fcpx interpret it as 25p (first clip on tl) The codec is avchd. Does this make sense at all, in your opinion?

    Great – I could do the dvd, without actually burning it to disc I guess. Just load it from file/open? Then I can keep the project as interlaced.

    That said – I think my 25p project is just fine for now.

    Sorry – I just read your post on my email, and did’nt see your link. Thanx (-:

  • Ok, thanx.
    And transcoding is just for the workflow? If the system handles my editing, I don’t have to transcode. It doesn’t influence the Finished result?

    Life is short, and I’m stuck in this. Ok, I’m slowly getting there. I guess the 25p is good enough. Is the best to share to dvd?

    Ok, one more question: maybe I should start new thread:
    I have a digital camera with footage shot in avchd, 50i. When I drop it on a project in fcpx, the project is 50p, Should I be happy ( I’m going to screen it the same way as I’ve mentioned)or should I change to 50i.

    Should I transcode? Uggggh – confused!

    I will just plug my mac to the tv, via hdmi. Probably I miss the point here.. Sorry about that. My prores alternative is as said crappy on my tv – I need to know how I can fix this. Is it because I play it from QT via hdmi to my tv? Should I use another player on my mac for better tv result? Should I do something with my project settings?

    Oh, gosh. I’m trying to get a grip… My main output will be tv. When I tested this I did it in QT. So for best performance on tv, directly from my mac, what is that?

    So, if I understand you right; when I share to dv, it will be one field only, if I don’t change to two fields. That’s why this option is ok on my tv. When sharing to prores I always get 2 fields, and that will be flickery on my tv.

    Thanx for helping me out; I hope you can guide me so I can get a good quality film on my tv from my mac. What player should I use, and what settings?

    Ok – I really don’t care about the preview. My problem is when exporting/sharing. I tried to make a master, with prores 422, and that came out crappy. I redid it with DV, and that came out fine. So, in a way I’m happy. Does this make sense, that prores is flickery, dv is not?

    When it comes to the blurry slow mo, I guess I have to fi it under retiming
