Q: Editing a QT file in FCP 7
I have just shot some test pieces on a JVC GYHM 200. sequences were captured as QT files at 1920x1080, 50p. Previously I have been editing all my footage as NTSC standard def. (Just moved from US to UK hence the change)
The test pieces can import into FCP 7 OK, but stutter badly when I try to play them. I am sure that this is a settings issue in FCP 7, but there are so many options I cannot determine what setting I can use. Can someone please advise - thanks
I am using a very old (2008) mac book pro running Yosemite 10.10.4 with 4Gb of RAM. It may be I am just asking too much of the old boy. I am in the process of getting a new Imac, but would like to understand if this is a settings or hardware issue.
