When using certain video formats, output using the Digital Cinema Desktop feature appears distorted, with tints of pink, blue, or green.

Products Affected

Final Cut Pro

This can happen in Final Cut Pro HD (4.5) when using OfflineRT at a quality higher than 35%, or MJPEG formats with third-party video cards.

If you're using Apple's OfflineRT format, the solution is to set the quality to 35% in the General tab of the Sequence Settings window.

This document will be updated as more information becomes available.
