I’m exporting to Animation to preserve alpha channel information and to stop recompression introduced by going back to theDV codec, to export to AE to do compositing work. Any reason I shouldn’t be.

Thankyou very much.
Don’t know why I couldn’t figure that out from the website. -
Again thankyou for the reply Graham. I can’t test this out know as im on another computer. But will try exporting using YUV and RGB codecs to see the difference (at a guess i would say that FCP is keeping the signal within a 16-235 range on export to animation RGB codec). However this contradicts what your saying in your article that FCP only affects still image import and export and not video rendering (import/export). But i’ll give it a go and report back.
Cheers

So thats how FCP works I did not know if i was doing anything wrong upon export using the animation codec.
Thanks I read that article however I noticed this

PS plaese don’t ask me to search the archives beacuse I have, and I still can’t seem to solve the issue.

Ah I see but what happens if your external drive goes down, do you have your project saves for fcp on a seperate drive to enable you to batch capture again. Thanks for the reply guys.

I realize it maybe also an FCP question, however I still do not fully understand converting between colour spaces hence the reson for me posting here.

Use isquint, quicktimes ipod video export is painfully slow or try one of a thousand other bits of freeware to do your encoding all are much faster than quicktime.
