Hi all,
I'm using FCP on my iMac for some video editing.
When I play back in final cut, everything plays fine, there is no skipping, everything is on track, every syncs up and works fine.

When I'm done, and I render all my video, and I go to convert, using quicktime conversion, my video always skips.

I have been converting to h.246 or .avi. The end result always has skips in it. Visable ones.

Am I using the wrong format to convert? Is it my computer?

I am using two different cameras, with footage from both. But I capture both in the same way. I'm using an HD one, and a non hd one.

Thanks.

Hmm, never heard of this before. Your video plays back fine in the timeline? When you export it make sure and check your average frame rate. There could be a preference changing it when you export.
