DVDSP - End Jump to Menu 1 and Chapters Markers from Final Cut Pro 5.0.4

I went to the Final Cut Forum and they sent me here:
Final Cut 5.0.4
DVD Studio Pro 4
I got to the point where I set the end jump back to Menu 1 for each of the two films listed with buttons on Menu 1 of my DVD.
One film has no chapter markers and the other has 4 chapters that I set up in Final Cut Pro, edited as Chapters and Saved for DVD Studio Pro when exporting the Quick Time. This functionality is great and very nice. At the end one does return to the (main menu) from both short films.
What I found, as stated in the manual, was the first chapter marker is automatically put in by DVD Studio Pro. On the film with 4 chapters by depressing the button on the remote one can skip ahead. When on reaches the 4th chapter one does not have a 5th marker for the end and one has to watch the 4th chapter to reach the end and then go back to the main menu. What I was trying to put in was a 5th chapter marker, or a marker at the end of each film where if one wanted to go back to the Main Menu before the film time had elapsed, one could hit the chapter ahead button and reach the end of the film, and be returned to the Main Menu.
When I put in end markers in DVD Studio Pro, the build stops stating there is a GOP boundry problem. After reading the manual I went back to end chapter markers in Final Cut, but these do not come through. I tried more than one second from the end of the movie but this does not seem to be the answer.
thanks in advance for your help.

Yes, the end marker is the solution, and it does need to be a certain distance from the end of the media. If placing markers in FCP, I put it 1:03 from the end. If you need to you can extend the FCP sequence, or even the track in DVDSP with a little black. In DVDSP, if I don't have an embedded end marker in my asset, I use the little "clicker" arrows next to the time fields in the marker inspector to move the marker two GOPs or "clicks" from the very end of the asset or track.
Hope this helps -

  • Export markers from Final Cut Pro X to DVD Studio Pro

    Hello,
    After finding out how to create chapters via markers in Final Cut Pro we wonder how to export these markers to DVD Studio Pro without having to create ourselves a .txt file and writing the names and the times of the markers in it to export it to DVD Studio Pro. Isn't there a way to make this happen automatically?
    Unfortunately the new version of Final Cut Pro doesn't have an export to Quick Time Player and this is why this kind of solution falls out and we really need to create the markers first in Final Cut Pro and not directly in DVD Studio.
    Is there a solution?
    Thank you.

    At present, you cannot add chapter markers in FCP X.
    If you send the project to Compressor, you can add chapter markers there, or you can add them in DVD SP.
    You can add the chapter markers in Compressor or DVD SP manually, or if you create a text file listing the exact timecode positions (from FCP X storyline) where you want the chapter markers to be (each on a new line) Compressor (or DVD SP) will automatically insert the markers when you point it to the text file.

  • Importing chapter markers from Final Cut Pro

    I usually set up my chapter markers and screen shots in FCP.
    If I share this to QuickTime or iTunes library, the chapter markers are present and work well.
    This was not always the case but since the latest update of FCP it works like a charm.
    However if I export it to COMPRESSOR (because it works faster) the markers are lost.
    I have successfully set channel markers in COMPRESSOR and that works, but my work flow seems to make more sense to set up the channels in FCP. (this is mostly because I often decide to do an edit change when I think about the marker...)
    COMPRESSOR gives me the option to load markers, but I don't know how to get them out of FCP.
    So...
    What do I need to do to export markers from FCP so they can be imported to COMPRESSOR.
    (before you ask, both FCP and COMPRESSOR are the latest post-Christmas, vastly improved versions.
    Thanks.

  • Export markers from final cut pro x to dvdsp as chapters

    FCP 7 supports exporting movie with markers which then can be chapters in DVDSP.
    Great.
    But how can I achieve the same end using FCP X, my editing tool of choice?

    DVDSP has an "import markers . . ." menu option.
    Does FCP X have an export markers feature?
    Might there be an .xml feature we can use?
    Can we expect this capability to arrive so I can create chapter markers in my FCP project and not have to repeat the chapter creation process as double work in DVDSP?

  • Importing markers from Final Cut Pro 7

    Hello
      I have markers set in FCP7 on a sequence. I want to export that sequence as a Quicktime and import it into AE. How can I import these markers into AE CS4 with my movie?
    Thanks
    -------------S

    Not at all. Sorry, this is beyond what AE is capable of. You may however have some luck exporting an FCP XML to Premiere, then import from there in AE. You will have to split at the markers, though. AE doesn't read PPro markers, either.

  • TS1233 How do I get chapter markers for iDVD from Final Cut Pro X?

    It seems like a tremendous short-coming that Final Cut Pro X doesn't allow for chapter markers that can be used in iDVD or DVD Pro. Surely there is some way to get used-defined markers from Final Cut Pro X or at least re-define the Final Cut Pro X markers in the DVD authoring applications. Does anyone know how to do this?

    I have decided to say that my problem is solved by the work-a-rounds that have been submitted. I STILL don't like the fact tha Apple has decided that DVD's are a thing of the past and therefore (chapter) markers are of no use. That may be true is the publishing world of YouTube, Vimeo, etc. but it certainly NOT true for many of us advanced hobbyists that still like distribution on DVD's to our friends or a more localized (private) community -- especially to those who are not computer literate. If Apple wants to exclude us from their customer base, I suggest that base will become even smaller than their competitors who still have chapter markers in their products. I'll get off my soapbox now. . .

  • All of my titles, themes and generators seem to be completely missing from Final cut pro x. Do you know how to get them back?

    All of my titles, themes and generators seem to be completely missing from Final cut pro x. Do you know how to get them back?

    Do you mean that when you click the title browser, for example, nothing is there?
    Do you at least see several categories listed in the effects browser?
    First make sure that you have nothing typed into the search box (not even spaces).
    If you still see nothing, try this in order:
    1) Window->Revert to Original Layout
    2) Quit FCP X, delete preferences using Preference Manager (a free download from Digital Rebellion)
    3) Download FCS Remover, and use it to completely remove FCP X. This will NOT delete your content, just the application.
    4) Reinstall FCP X from the Mac App Store: log in with the same Apple ID that you used to buy FCP X, click on "Purchases", locate FCP X and click Install.

  • Opening log and capture shuts down final cut pro

    Hi, I am using final cut pro 5.1 and when I open my log and capture window, the final cut pro instantly shuts down. I just upgraded to 10.4.10. Would that be the problem?
    Also, now it doesn't pick up my deck connection via firewire to my sony dsr-11 pal deck.
    Everything was working fine before.
    any advice?

    Have you updated all the way to FCP 5.1.4? (or the latest version of 5.1)?
    Also, after a system update, trashing the FCP Prefs can usually help out any instability. FCP Rescue makes that nice and easy.

  • Converting VHS and other Analog into Final Cut Pro

    Hello,
    I've taken it upon myself to archive some old home videos of a deceased young cousin of mine. The video is on VHS and getting old and I want to put it on DVD for her parents, and then "Print to Video" on DV for a new master hard copy I can use for my personal archive.
    I bought a Canopus 300 converter, plugged it into my PowerMac G5 via FireWire, and I can now see the footage on my Mac.
    What I can't do, is seem to find it in my "Log and Capture" window for Final Cut Pro.
    Does anyone have any suggestions?
    I also thought about looping it to a DV camera and dubbing it, then having this footage with a new TimeCode and then capture it into Final Cut Pro.
    My first priority is getting this video preserved in the best quality video possible (it's already not so good to begin with).

    What I can't do, is seem to find it in my "Log and Capture" window for Final Cut Pro.Does anyone have any suggestions?
    You must set your capture settings to Non controllable device in order to capture from the converter and use Capture Now.
    I also thought about looping it to a DV camera and dubbing it, then having this footage with a new TimeCode and then capture it into Final Cut Pro.
    If your camera hace analog inputs you can do that. This way you'll have a safe copy of your footage. Using the first option, you can make some basics edits and corrections before transfering to the DV, what means cutting some "floo and sky" shoots !
    Hope that helps !

  • Motion Markers To Final Cut Pro

    Hi Ther Folks,
    I designed a composition in Motion, but, I have to do some edit in Final Cut. To help me out, I set some markers to remind me what goes where. I exported it as a .mov, using Compressor, but when I tried to import it in Final Cut, none of the markers were there!
    What am I doing wrong? Is there any how to get Motion markers inside Final Cut Pro?
    Thank You
    PS: Using the Final Cut Studio 2 Suite

    Markers in FCP will show up when sent to Motion (which is the typical workflow) but not the other way around. However, your markers will show up in the Quicktime movie you export, so you could use those as a reference.
