Sorry for posting twice. I got a page that said that there was an error, so I re-posted it.

What would be the set up?
AES DB-25 out of the Multibridge to a 6 to 8 channel D/A to a Martin Sound Multimax to the Speakers?

Check out Decklink’s Framelink. If you have a Blackmagic it gets installed on your system when you download the driver for 5. I was able to create a quicktime out of a DXP sequence and imported it to FCP 5. Works great! 2k playback in FCP, that’s another story.

I added to that combo the anti-aliasing and that helped but made everything a little blurry.

I agree. This should be a complete redo, but the client wants the best out of what we got. I’m going to clip the hell out of this thing and pray that it doesn’t get rejected.

I already tried, it won’t work. The problem is that I have two elements that weren’t properly corrected before they were mix together. Now I don’t have the original elements and I can’t correct one without ruining the other.

The graphic designer is long gone and the graphics are way to many to re-do in a proper timeframe. But I agree 100% that is their responsability!
I tried setting the levels manually but it looks like the range of the animation is way bigger than the film’s live action range (from black to white) and when I have the animation’s black at 0 mV the live actions is milky and way too bright.

I did read the post, but it wasn’t quite what I was looking for. I tried everyhting I could in terms of color correcting and video levels. But this problem is beyond that. I have some motion graphics that are already composed with live action that are all over the place and no matter how much I desaturate it and try to bring the levels down, it seems like FCP filters can’t affect certain levels that are way outside of a normal range. I can clip luma over 700 mV or below 0 mV, but the problems are the chroma undershoots. No matter what I do I still have spikes under 0 mV on the 601.
I wish there was a filter that can hard clip chroma undershoots.

Do you have Norton System Works or Virex installed?
If yes, get rid of it! I had the same problem and as soon as I uninstalled Norton I was able to do Capture Now to external drives again.
Good luck,

Thanks, I didn’t know that. Now I found a workaround. I made a nested clip and applied that filter. It’s not as good as having it display in the timeline, but at least now I know the size of my reels in feet & frames!
