That’s a video standard format. That’s square pixel standard definition PAL. FCE doesn’t edit that. The only SD FCE handles is DV. Convert to QuickTime using the DV PAL codec and set options to 16:9. Edit in a DV PAL Anamorphic sequence.

Once you have made the subclip you cannot roll the edit to extend beyond the subclip without going through the process of removing the subclip limits, which will take you back to the original 45 minute clip.

Stop there. MPEG-4 does not edit in FCE natively. It should not be used. You should use MPEG Streamclip to transcode the media to QuickTime.
Subclipping should not really be thought of as an editing function, more an organizational function. You select large pieces that you want to work with. Do not try to cut it too tightly.

What format is the media? Shot in DV? It can easily be converted to subclips using DV Start/Stop Detect. Otherwise the more common way to work is to mark In and Out points and convert each into a subclip.

You can tell by the images that you put up that there’s a PAR problem.
You edit your material in FCP in widescreen HD. You make a 4:3 SD sequence in FCP. You place the edited HD sequence in the SD sequence. You render and export.

“that I convert to ProRes HQ 4:3 Letterbox 720×486 with QT 7”
How’d you do that? It looks like a pixel aspect ratio problem. Why aren’t you doing the whole thing in FCP?

You can use the match frame function F or reveal in in finder Shift-F to find where a clip in a sequence has come from. Is that what you mean?

The F key is match frame and brings up the clip in the browser. Cmd-Opt-F matches back to a new copy of the media. Shift-F shows the location of the clip in the browser. Control-click on the clip and you also have a Reveal in Finder function. Take your pick.
