If anyone has edited Super 16mm on FCP, please lend me some help! I have FCP 5.0.4., Dual 1.8, G5 and I'm trying to cut together footage shot at 24P from a Super 16mm camera. The footage was transfered down to an external hard drive and converted into Quicktime files.

The footage is interlacing and I can't seem to find the corect mode to edit in. I've tried a 23.98, 29.97, & 30 sequence mode, but none work. I refuse to use the de-interlacing filter because it makes the footage look like CRAP! There must be another solution.

I need help quick, we need this video cut together yesterday! Any help is much appreciated!

thanks,

The easiest wa to get the Timeline correct for editing, is to look at a clip in the bin and match that to your sequence settings. The biggest to check for are Framerate, Compressor, Frame Size, and Anamoprhic.
