    OMG….Can I just say THANK YOU!!! I have had this problem for a while and kept working on my laptop instead of my iMac and finally updated my iMac with FCP 3, but was still getting the same problem. I came across your problem and how you solved it and it totally worked for me too. I changed my color setting to NTSC, but it looked like any other one aside from what was defaultly there before worked! THANKS SO MUCH AGAIN!!!

  • Yea pretty much, but that’s why I was trying to figure out why I couldn’t play back HQ, but I could 444 when I tested it

  • You don’t need HQ for anything less than 2K footage. It seems that you and your dir/prod are both making the same mistake in assuming that standard ProRes is for SD material and HQ and 444 are for HD. Plain vanilla ProRes is what you need and it’s apparently the highest throughput your system and hard drives are capable to playing back without dropping frames.

    Thanks, yea I realize this, I was originally just going to do plain ProRes, but again, out of my hands. They want either HQ or higher

  • Post more about your system. OS, versions of FCP and QuickTime you’re running and on which machine/disk array?

    The transcoding is more so for sound sync, than the actual edit, so it is being done on a Macbook Pro Snow Leopard 10.6, FCP 7, QT

    Oh also, I ran a test through compressor, same settings, and it didn’t have that lag, but I want to use Streamclip because it’s faster and Compressor only allows a limited amount of clips to be done at once when I tried it
