[Paul Turlick] "I have left FCP setup in HD. The only thing I changed was the Video Playback to 525. If I don't do that the card keeps reverting back to 1080."
Ok, you don't have the card set up correctly.
Again, LEAVE Final Cut Pro set up in 1080i HD. DO NOT change that.
Click on the Kona Control Panel.
Click on the Control Tab
Primary should be set to 1080i
Secondary should be set to 525.
Click on the output tab you want to downconvert.
Select Secondary 525.
Now go back to Final Cut Pro.
This is the correct way to use the Control Panel. NEVER use Final Cut Pro to do any sort of conversions. You leave that set up in the Primary format.
