Q: incorrect sequence settings in FCE
Hi Folks,
I have shot HDV footage at 25fps and notice that when I start a new sequence the item properties are:
Vid Rate 25 fps Frame Size 1440x1080 Compressor Apple Intermediate Compressor Pixel Aspect HD 1440x1080
Field Dominance (Upper (odd)
I have checked the item properties of the ingested video and it is showing that the Field Dominance is None.
Why the difference in the sequence settings? How do I change the sequence settings so that it is
showing Field Dominance None?
(My Easy Setup is Format HD Rate All rates Use HDV AIC 1080i50)
Any advice much appreciated. Regards,

You have chosen and interlaced Easy Setup - that is what the "i" is in 1080i50.
Not sure what version of FCE you are using but try creating a new, empty sequence.
Drag one of your source clips to the (empty) timeline you just created. You should be asked if you want the Sequence settings changed to match your source properties.
Say Yes.
You should be good to go.
If this does not work post back.
