Apple - Discussions - Quality Issues with Compressor 2.0.1: " Posts: 1 Has anyone had any contact with Apple engineers about the problems folks are having with macro-blocking artifacts with Compressor since 2.x appeared?

Is Apple aware of this serious step-back in reliability and quality?

We too are experiencing this and it is very troublesome. Really takes the fun out of doing this type of work.

I would like hear from those who have never had the problem or who had the problem and resolved without reverting to older versions.

I think the one common factor among those experiencing the problem is that we are all working in DV25 (NTSC or PAL).

Final Cut Pro: How to Calibrate Serial Timecode

Final Cut Pro: How to Calibrate Serial Timecode: "Unless you're capturing a DV or HD video format via FireWire, the timecode and audio/video signals are received separately by Final Cut Pro. Timecode is captured via the serial device control cable (using RS- 422 format in most cases), while audio/video is captured via the cable connected to the video capture interface (composite, S-video, component, or SDI). Because the signals are separate, they can possibly arrive at different times, causing the wrong timecode number to be recorded onto captured video frames."
