Hi
I have exported a movie as Dnx120 for a guy who, for reasons best known to himself, wants to edit on Avid. When I look at the movie in Quick Preview (by pressing the space bar in finder) the movie looks fine. When I open it in Quick Time player the guy in the interview looks as if he is sunburnt. Any idea if this means that the movie has something wrong with it or whether Dnx120 just plays back poorly in QT player ?
Thanks

How are you exporting the files as DNX120? Also, Avid Media Composer will read FCP 7 XML export, and ProRes files.

Hi Ben
I was using Export Movie > Quick Time Conversion (so basically Compressor). I have discovered the problem. There are 2 settings for converting the colour, either RGB or 709 (I think it was 709 but I am having a glass of wine on the deck at the moment and lack the drive to go plug up my drive). I originally had it on the default 709 colour setting but when I switched to RGB it came out looking just fine. Thanks for the tip about XML and Pro Res on Media Composer, I will have a sip of wine for you
