    I've been using RCX for a long time now, but I've noticed in the past day, my files, when viewed in QT, are dark and crushed. Can anyone give me a reason, and a solution?

    What codec are you exporting with? QT supports like 20. QT also has gamma issues which you may be running into. What happens if you play the file through VLC? Do you have a 10-bit display? Perhaps RCX shows you 10-bit, then you export to 8-bit. What if you export to a non-qt codec?

    Do you have the SPMTE setting checked in the export options?
