I know FCP does not play nice with Mpeg2 files. Does anyone have the proper specs to convert the Mpeg2 file and get good results. I need to convert files from my Sony NX5U both 4:3 and 16:9 footage.
I know I seen something here before. I'm just looking for exact setting details.

Thanks!

I can show you what the export screen should look like in MPEG Streamclip if you want to edit in FCP. But firstly can you tell me what resolution the footage has been shot at?

And if it is interlaced or not?

Standard definition resolution is as follows 720x480 60i for both 4:3 and 16:9.
Thanks in advance for any help.
