[Manuela Corbari] "I wonder if the footage in my FCP sequence is at the highest maximum quality."

No. It isn't in the highest maximum quality. DV is good for offline editing, but isn't considered an online codec. I would suggest re-digitizing your Digibeta footage as ProRes or Uncompressed SD.

Your miniDV footage isn't going to get any better than DV, so you can just keep it how it is. Your HDV footage would probably work out best if you downconverted it to SD and captured it as ProRes. Or you could just down convert the HDV footage using Compressor or something like that.
