Hi Jeremy, thanks for your reply.

The video that’s causing a problem is 1080i; the timeline I’m using to finish is 720p, so that may well be the problem. Both are 29.97.

I tried the de-interlace filter in FCP [Effects > Video Filter > Video > De-interlace ] and didn’t notice a significant improvement.

I’ll try fields kit and see how it goes. Thanks again.

Hi, I’m watching this with interest as we have a similar issue with a client that I’m working with onsite.

We received some Quicktime Files that were captured as -Apple ProRes 422, 1920 x 1080, Millions, 29.97fps-

They were late additions to a Final Cut project that is -1280×720, Square, No Dominance, 29.97, Animation-

All of the previous footage, when exported from FCP, looked fine; the new footage that I’d placed in the timeline had a stuttering effect on any pan motion. I was exporting to H.264, 1280×720.

Changing the original timeline to Apple Pro Res 422 (HQ) seemed to help some, as did changing my original timeline from Animation to Apple Pro Res 422 (HQ).

But the stutter is still noticeable in at least a couple of clips.

I was wondering if you’d have any idea how to get rid of the stuttering, or if it could be an anomaly of the capture. Is it something I’m doing?

Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks.
