FCPX Spatial Conform stretched only via Decklink Monitor

PostTue Sep 18, 2018 5:34 am

Hi

I'm working on R3D footage from a feature film. 8k Raw, editing in Red original proxies 2k, on FCPX. It's a 2.39 scope Project, filmed with non-anamorphic lens just regular lens. I just installed an external monitor setup:

MAC (Hackintosh) > Decklink Mini Monitor 4k > Decklink Converter (sdi to hdmi 6g) > LG OLED B755

In Davinci Resolve works perfectly, but in FCPX it's just not working. In Resolve it outputs as it should - 2.39 with black bars on top and bottom.

I did everything I was suppose to:
Project Settings were as before: 2048 x 858
All Spatial Conform set to FILL

In the FCPX Gui viewers everything is fine. But on the external LG, the image is stretched to occupy the whole frame.

The LG monitor has bad aspect custom controls that are worthless.

Decklink can set to whole Bunch of outputs, 4k dci, 2k dci, hd, etc... Virtually all of then. Nothing works. I set the project in FCPX to 1920x1080. Than created a letterbox on a top layer (Adjustment Layer). It is a strange way, once FCPX can output on it's guis the perfect aspect. If you guys now what is going on, please let me know.

I spent hours already trying to fix this.

Can anyone please help?

Thank you
