I’m still very virgin on this process, can you describe how you would set up a scenario to get a shot like this, a list of gear, equipment, etc, maybe the guerrilla filmmaker way of executing it, as well as the more studio expensive way?
Muchos gracias,

I’ve not yet relinked the old assets with the new assets, stills, when I do and re-link, and re-export, I’ll let you know. The file sizes went from 7MB to 1-1.5MB…

So, I’m in Photoshop, if I change the DPI from 300 to 72, this looks to be a good workaround. I’m unchecking “Resample Image”. It’s changing the dpi, but not the resolution, so looks like this should work ok.

But isn’t there a way to take the images into Photshop, and lower their quality or change their color space or something, so that it still maintains the resolution, but the files are not so huge? In other words, to avoid re-scaling and adding motion to the images, more of an asset refresh?

Can high-res stills cause this error? If there are quite a few still images? 4500×2500 sized stuff? Everything is rendering fine…

Noah,
Hey very quick, while I’ve got you graciously responding to this post, I’m shooting a wedding tomorrow with an old borrowed DVX-100 (1st edition), and I bought the high quality HDV/DV Professional grade Panasonic tape and all.. Do I shoot in 24p or 24pa? I’ll probably output letterbox to SD-DVD, yea, I know, this is an old topic. There’s no squeeze mode, so… I’ll cut in FCP 7.0.3, and don’t want it too “interlacie…” I’m ok with a 29.97 or a 23.98 time-line, it does not me as I just want the SD video to look decent upon ingest and output to SD-DVD.
Cheers,
Tom

Yea, out of about 10 of my media associates who have already downloaded it, everyone is saying that it’s missing this or that, and that they’d use it for personal use, but not for work or paid projects, so. I might just use Quick Looks for the next few months till I’m ready for fcpx and hopefully red giant has a solution or someone has developed a patch – just kidding! Maybe FCP 7.0.4 will be out in a few months by poular demand. They could have left the original build the same, but have given it that slick iMovie look, a little facelift, you but, oh well. I’ll watch the LJ 11 hours of training and maybe that will be good, to see how it works.
Thanks,
Tom

EXCAM VBR 35/MBPS is it showing that it is HDTV 1920x1080i, at 29.97fps, so if I change the frame-rate to 24fps, will that also make it pure 24fps, or will FCP do the convert back to 29.97 like it sometimes does? When 24fps, imports in to FCP, does FCP keep it at 24fps? And is it 1080i or 1080p, or can you do that inside the camera? Do you have to dial that in as well, whether it is 1080i or 1080p? Sorry for the added questions.
