I am editing a XDCAM HD project on FCP 5.1 with a dual 2.5ghz G5 Mac.
Enabling Digital Cinema Desktop Preview plays full frame rate and full screen on my 1600x1200 2nd display.
I prefer to monitor on a Sony CRT PAL studio monitor that I am used to so I now enable video playback using the Apple Firewire PAL setting.
The output I get is single frame, despite being set to all frames. Also the aspect ratio is wrong, it is more squashed closer to cinema 2.35:1
Is anyone editing HD material on FCP and managing to get an SD downconversion via firewire? without need for a Kona card?
Many thanks in advance
