As topic

I buy a new Mac Pro and install FCP 7. During editing, I found some abnormal in canvas window and the preview cannot show the correct colour. All video preview is in high contrast. I have no ideas on it. And I don't have this situation before with the OSX.

Is that any problem or setting I have to apply? And my FCP7 is installed in new mac pro with OS X EI Capitan version 10.11.

Please help.

Thanks

Go to FCP System Settings > Playback Control and set the Gamma correction to Approximate.

One more question.

I sent a sequence to compressor, and set 422HQ with 5.1 wav export. After finishing setting and destination, I press submit. I can enter the name, change the priority and the cluster, but I can't press the final "submit".

Why? Any process i miss?

Compressor 3.5 is not supported in El Cap.

Qmaster functionality was eliminated in Yosemite, in believe.

You need to purchase Compressor 4.2 from the Mac App store, or an application like Sorenson Squeeze.

Further question,

How can i set the default compressor when I choose "send to compressor"?

Now I got compressor 3,5, compressor 4.2

The easiest way is uninstall the compressor 3.5? or any setting I can make
