i have the same problem, but worse.
I CANNOT PUT ANY IMAGE IN THE TIMELINE WITHOUT FCP SCALING IT DOWN.
when i scale it back to 100% the picture gets ruined. The size of the image i am using is very high and when i put it in the timeline it gets scaled down at 21 %. I try to scale it up back to 100 % but it gets the quality destroyed..
in the preferences i have UNCHECKED “Auto scale clips to sequence size” but its like it doesn’t work… Also the auto conform sequence is set to “never”..
i just want to pan a gib image in the canvas. Is that too much to ask from a top selling editing software???!?!?!?!?
help me before i go nuts
