Thank you very much for your prompt reply. I am looking at the file now that I made into an individual QuickTime movie as you suggested. The same shots look as blocky as all hell. I haven’t compressed the file yet because I’ve gone back to a previous saved version of the fcp timeline that I made just before rendering. All the shots are perfect. I’m finding that immediately after clicking  sequence> render all before exporting is when these particular shots loose their quality. Interestingly the bulk of them that are not working were shot in slow motion. Or had a speed reduction made on them in fcp. Another one of the ‘blocky’ shots was cropped from a mid to a cu frame. There are one or two quick cutaways that were shot on a 5d  as well. Is the fcp render te cause of this as well do you think? Should I follow your instructions but apply them to the fcp timeline that has not yet been rendered? Forgive me bit I am relatively new to this.Â
Regards
 Rory.  Â

I trashed the prefs and now when I start FCP up it asks for me to chose my setup again. which would be the best option to check? this is the first time i’ve ever used this type of camera before. I’m assuming i would check one of the XD cam 1080p options? i’ve already tried checking each one to see if that is what the prob is but it seems to have no effect. Could it be that this problem occurs because i’m taking footage from FCP 6 over to FCP 7?

Ps. how do I trash the preferences?

Hi there,
I’ve tried what you have suggested and we found that the image showed up red but will still go blank when played. We also realized that the XD cam transfer package that had been downloaded was an out of date one. I got the new one working but have no idea what to do next. I re-checked the RGB drop down and now when I put it on blue or green it shows up in black and white but when played goes blank again. I’m starting to panic.
