smoking! Thanks for the help.
are you still in LA? I was there until about 2 years ago.

no plugins that I am aware of. just final cut 7 by itself.
I’m newer to editing so I’m still trying to wrap my head around codecs and how they work. In this particular project I was given a DVD which I ripped using MPEG streamclip.(I later realized I should have just grabbed the video files off the DVD rather than ripping it) I’ve been known at times to mix codecs a bit on accident.
In this particular case I thought I had set the footage codec to DVCPro and I think the sequence was set to DV NTSC 48khz. I later went back and changed the footage to ProRes422 because Final Cut was wigging out a bit and running very slow. It ran faster but I was still getting the black and white effect in the canvas.
In some other cases the footage has been in H264 all giving me the same black and white effect. I should clarify that this happens for regular footage too and not just green screen footage.
I hope all that made sense. I could really use your help. By the way, I think I know you… -
well, that is a great question. I’m newer to editing so I’m still trying to wrap my head around codecs and how they work.
