[Jonathan Fowler] "Can I arrange things to print to video from my laptop, using the HVX as a deck? "

I would recommend first exporting your 720p sequence to QuickTime with "current settings". Then, make a new 4:3 DV sequence (making sure your frame rate is the same as your source), import the 720p Quicktime file, drop it into your DV sequence and make sure FCP does not conform the sequence to fit the clip.

You may have to scale the 720p clip down to fit in the DV frame and you'll probably want to enable 2:3:2:3 pulldown on that sequence (which can be found in the RT tab in the upper left corner of the sequence window, if you've made your sequence 24fps). Then just render and print to tape.

Hope that helps.
