LOL not as "HD"


HD = the resolution of the video, not the quality.

It's probably how you're exporting it. Also, it could be how you're converting it to use it in FCP. Explains what you did for those two things.

yea thats what i noticed.. i export it using quick time conversion to H.264
key frame every 30 frames
restrict to 1800 kbits per second
resize it to 1920x1080
check deinterlace video .. thats about it

Im guessing your footage isn't interlaced, so decheck that, even though it doesn't do anything.


You probably should shoot for 3k-5k on kbps and keyframe should be "auto"
