When I edit progressively shot video (30fps) in FCP, I set up a 29.97 project, but in sequence settings do I then set it to "none" under fields? When I drop one of these clips on the timeline, the new Auto set up feature in FCP6 sets the project to 29.97 and "Upper Fields" first since that is how it is on the tape and captured to hard drive. It looks Ok, but it's not a progressive timeline right? However, if I set the sequence settings to "none" the video doesn't look smooth, it's full of small jagged edges, it may be the way my KONA card sends the signal to the monitor. I'm not sure? Then how do I output a file? Do I set it to render with fields or without? Since the fields are essentially duplicates...does it matter?
I've looked through the manual but it seems unclear about this Steve. Does your book address it? If so that is good to know! I'd LOVE to find a concise, clear answer to this. As would others by the sounds of it!
