Capturing HDV and Rendering Problem at DVinfo.net

Rickey Brillantes · September 2nd, 2008, 01:56 PM

I am using FCP 5.1.4 and a Sony FX1 Camcorder. Evidently I have screwed up some settings because now I run into a minor issue with being forced to render all video when clips are placed into a sequence.

Whenever I drag a captured clip into a sequence it requires rendering. I didn't used to have to do this so am wondering what settings I got screwed up along the way.

Perhaps your project and/or sequence settings do not match your footage? Can sometimes happen if your mixing DV and HDV together in Final Cut Pro.

Check here to see if your project/sequence settings match your footage:
1. Sequence > Settings
2. Final Cut Pro > Easy Setup
