[walter biscardi] "What? 1080p material should be in a 1080p timeline and then you let the IoXT covert that to 720p on output. No wonder the footage looks so bad, FCP does horribly crappy conversions and that's what you have going on right now. FCP is converting that footage in the timeline instead of the IoXT."
Walter,
Let me explain! I use 1080p in a 720p timeline so I can simulate focal length changes in the edit. It is a technique that has worked very well for me. I find that FCPX scales beautifully. The good news is that I just tried setting the ioXT to output directly to 1080Psf 23.98 and it works beautifully from both the 720p timeline and the 1080p raw footage in the event library. I'm a happy man! Thanks for your input.
