Hi Dave.
I am working on a project that requires bringing parts of a FCP sequence to AE 6.5 and then back to FCP. I’ve been editing in ProRes 422 HQ the whole time, so I didn’t need to duplicate the sequence in order to export a self-contained movie. I was able to open the parts of the FCP sequence I needed on AE and work on them. And when I export from AE, the result seems ok (except it’s a bit more contrasted, dunno why).

However, when I’m working on AE, everytime I click and drag the Current Time Indicator or the nodes of a mask (and the entire mask), the video in the Comp window appears all weird (see images bellow), and I can’t see very well what I’m doing with my masks.

-sorry for the crappy snapshots, still haven’t figured out how to take a screen shot on a Mac

Do you know why this happens? Is there a way to correct it? Should I worry about my output videos if I’m having this problem during the editing process in AE?

Btw, this doesn’t happen when I open in AE a file that has another codec, like for instance MOV H.264.
