[Mike Schrengohst] “Does FCP do real-time
at any level Uncompressed HD?? “
If you use the Apple or third Party uncompressed codecs, you get real time playback, some configurations will give you RT colour correction in 8 bit uncompressed.
We get round this by Offlining using the DVCPro HD codec which gives you loads of real time effects and multistream playback and is almost identical visually to uncompressed. Then when the edit is finished we recapture to uncompressed and render transitions and effects.
99% of the time the client doesn’t even spot the difference in quality!
