Re: [FCP-L] OT Compressor Strip CC

Of course, my reply was all based on SD. I don't know how that might apply
to HD.

I was told by engineers at our local PBS station, that HD captioning doesn't
make it through the FCP process. But they are still on FCP 6 since many of
their systems are still PPC-based. Perhaps I misunderstood them. Or maybe
I'm not understanding you.
