Will exporting from FCP w/o compressor with the correct mpeg-2 settings still keep me from needing to compress in DVDSP? I know this is a dumb question but I’m still learning DVDSP.

Thanks! I read the pdf, but I’m still a little confused…. will it give each system deck control?

When I have to adjust position and screen size, I get everything in the general area I need it for the rough cuts, and then go back and even out all the number before my big final render. I do have a question though, when using LiveType or motion (to import later into FCP 5.0.2) do I need to keep those numbers even in LiveType or Motion? This is why I ask: When working in those programs, I get my text or graphics right where I want them, so that I’m not moving the clips position/scale in FCP. So since I’m not adjusting anything in FCP, I should be alright, right?

Thanks for the suggestion!!! We had tried that one too, though. The other editor actually went to the apple support pages and found out that there’s a bug with cmd-z undo and ripple delete. Somehow it corrupts the sequence. Here’s the link: https://discussions.info.apple.com/webx?14@@.68b9545e/8 It may also have something to do with how our drives are formatted. For a good reference on that go here: https://www.kenstone.net/fcp_homepage/good_apps_gone_bad.html

The good news is that we’ve been able to continue editing without ripple delete, and we were able to get an extension on a deadline (wow, how often does hat happen!?)

I hope no one else has had to go through this, but if you have, I hope the above links help.

Cheers,
Stone
