Hello guys. I worked untill today with my Nikon D7100 recording at 720p .
Now, they demand 1080i50. (Sometimes it's called 25i) .
Everytime i import what i recorded with 1080i50 in Final Cut Pro, it moves a bit jerky and a bit blurred. U know why ? Please help me. thanks.
Final Cut Pro X, OS X Mavericks (10.9.5)
The image is too small to observe detail.
It appears that there is fairly large blockiness about the image?
Cause may well be putting the image through a number of cycles that change it's original form. Compress/recompress.

I m just importing them from my computer. When i play it on Quick Player it's at its best quality. When I import it in final cut i see that blockiness u are sayin about. When i play it looks like a streamign online with a bad connection, lol. Pleaes help me:(
how ow did it get to your computer? Did you make it in your computer?
sorry i don t understand. if you are askin me from where i have the files, i copied them from the card that was in the camera when i recorded.
LLook in the Info inspector to see what FCP says this media is. The QuickTime player says it 1920x1080 at 50fps. That's not 1080i. There may be something wrong on a camera setting or the camera isn't shooting it right. You might have to try converting the media. It's also possible that old version of FCP didn't handle this media correctly. I can't remember what the Nikon support was like. Can you post a small clip on a site somewhere that the original media can be downloaded?
I am sending u a video ! When i paly it with QuickTime player i see it very good , as it best ( it s not the best focused timing at the begining of the video but it doesn't matter, the problem is that "blockiness" in final cut.
I can send u an email with the video cause i can t put the link here 😟
link this and u got the link of a video.
No blockiness here, either in QT or FCP X.
Click the Project icon to show the Project properties.
Post a screen shot.
Should look something like this:

in QT i don t have neither. But when i play it in FCP it does that.... have u seen the image?: (
thanks for helping by the way guys:(
Only now I realize that you are still using an old version 10.0.?.
I don't think you mentioned which one, or which OS version either. This may help explain the problem.
FCP X is at version 10.1.4; 10.1 was a major update that changed media management very significantly, and required Mavericks (10.9).
10.1.4 works extremely well in Yosemite (10.10), and I suppose in Mavericks as well (though I can't test that).
The only reason I can think of to still be running 10.0.* is if you can't run at least Mavericks on your mac. 10.1.* is vastly superior, IMHO, to the previous versions.
You are using an older version of FCP X, what is the exact version?
What is the OS you are using?
Maybe an issue here??
FYI: Do not update to the latest version of FCP X before understanding the changes.
What the screen shots show is you are using Progressive clips in an interlaced Project.
That's the only thing I can think of.
Alter the Project Properties to reflect the properties of the clips.

I m now downloading Yosemite last update . I clicked about my mac and software update. I will post after the update if there is any problem. @Alhcroma: i recorded as interlaced ( 1080 50i) and my project is still interlaced. I m using a NIKON d7100 with crop 1.5x. In order to use interlaced i had to add +1.3 crop . So i m sure i used 1050 50i in recording.. :-s
Like Alchroma said, be careful with that update.
The version you are using is NOT compatible with Yosemite, and you need to understand the conceptual changes involved in moving from 10.0.* to 10.1*.
Well worth the update, but not trivial.
