I'm a bit confused in setting up FCP to work with 16:9 sd DVCpro50.
At the moment I'm just getting a small 16:9 image with large black boarders around it ?
I'm used to using my old xl2 and setting sequence by checking 16:9 anamorphic and changing compression to progressive + 16:9 aspect in sequence setting.

Also would i be right in thinking that on the HVX 'squeeze' is pana's way of saying 16:9. And if so why not just say 16:9 ??

If anybody has the correct pal sequence settings for working with DVCpro50 16:9 (squeeze) SD footage in final cut pro (studio) please clue me in cheers.

Many thanks

PS i'm loving this cam, was live capturing in 1080i last night straight into FCP. Gona get my steadicam out for a test fly today :O)
I actually think it's a very good looking cam now ?? perhaps cuz of all the money it's going to make me :Drogar-Evil(DBG):

There's an easy setup. And yes, use squeeze on the HVX.

What is the correct easy setup called ? I used the dvcpro setup but now have seen the dv50 option.
Is the dv50 dcpro50 ? I'l have a play around.
Cheers.

Turns out I just had to create a new sequence with correct settings.
