it is funny how people response to serious questions. You are all WRONG! My FCP is having the same issues since TODAY! I was writing on the wrong keyboard and must have triggered something in FCP 6. Suddenly, the out-point is NOT where the playhead sits atm (which indeed is and should be normal behaviour) but one frame to the right. For all of you who are to ignorant to understand:

….|O…
….|….
….|….

Legend:
| = playhead
O = outpoint

Before I hit some stupid shortcut, it was like this:
….O…..
….|…..
….|…..

See, how the outpoint is created just where the playhead resides? So please, if someone would tell an experienced, three years user of FCP, how I could undo this stupid shortcut …
