How to send ProRes FCP footage to iDVD and get a quality result

Hello,
I am editing on FCP5, for which I used a USB to transfer my ProRes footage. I want to use one of the themes in iDVD as a menu page for my final project, and understand that to do this I will have to export my FCP footage via QuickTime. I am worried about compromising the quality of my footage by doing this. My question is how can I then burn my final product, including the DVD menu, to disk and get the best quality result from my footage.
Thank you!

Have a feeling it's MPEG2. I've already spent time this week rendering another part of the movie using my old editing package (Pinnacle) and saving it as a .mov file to USB and it works on FCP without a hitch- Thankfully! I'm just gutted because I know MPEG is nowhere near as good quality as ProRes but I really don't know what else to do- This is literally my first week working on a Mac, let alone FCP!

  • How to send a string to CVI .c and get string return through TestStand sequence?

    Hi, I am using TestStand 3.1 and I have the StringConverter.c with CVI 8.0 with the function:
    char * string_concat_2 (char* str1,char* str2)
     char * str_ret;
     str_ret = calloc(200, sizeof(char*));
     str_ret = strcat (str_ret, str1);
     str_ret = strcat (str_ret, str2);
     return str_ret;
    I would like to use it  through Teststand, so I add a sequence using 'StringValueTest'. I Spectify Module CVI &  link to StringConverter.c and type in Function Name: char * string_concat_2 (char* str1,char* str2)
    1. How I define to send the string1 ("Hello") & string2 ("World") to the Module?
    2. How I define to string return ("HelloWorld" from the Module?
    Thanks

    Hi plit string,
    You will need to have a parameter passed by reference to return the
    string.  To do this, use a "C String Buffer" instead of a "C String
    (const)" parameter type.  There is documentation on this in TestStand
    Help.  Here is a quote from there:
    "When using string parameters, use the C String Buffer or Unicode
    String Buffer type if you want the function to be able to change the contents of
    the argument in TestStand. Use the C String or Unicode String type if the DLL
    function does not modify the argument. You can pass a literal string, a
    TestStand string property, or an expression that evaluates to a string as the
    value of a string parameter."

  • I am trying to send an iMovie project to iDVD and I keep getting the following error msg.  "Unable to prepare subject for publishing:  The project could not be prepared for publishing because an error occurred. (-43)"

    I am trying to send an iMovie project to iDVD and I keep getting the following error msg.  "Unable to prepare subject for publishing:  The project could not be prepared for publishing because an error occurred. (-43)"

    Check out this thread: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/1421870
    It may mean you either your Event or your Project. Have you moved any of the files in the Finder by any chance? That error may come up if you moved anything outside of iMovie. Do you get an error message when you choose Share>Export to iMovie (choose medium size) and save it to the Desktop? If you can export it to the desktop, you can pull that file into iDVD separately and still make it work.

  • How I can export files from CS5.5 to send for further editing in CS6 and no lose quality?

    how I can export files from CS5.5 to send for further editing in CS6 and no lose quality?

    If all you need for further editing is the contents of your Timeline,
    then you should follow Harm's sage advice.
    Lagarith Lossless Video Codec
    http://lags.leetcode.net/codec.html
    Ut Video Codec Suite
    http://www.videohelp.com/tools/Ut-Video-Codec-Suite
    But, if you will need all of your source media files to continue the edit,
    you should consider using the Project Manager.
    Trim or copy your project
    By using the Project Manager, you will be continuing the edit
    with the original media files and there will be no quality loss.
    Be aware that once you have edited the project in CS6,
    it will be problematic (but not impossible) to return to edit in CS5.5.

    I had the same problem after I gave my old iPad to my parents and tried to install Netflix. This is what you have to do:  Open iTunes on your computer, the one you sync your iPad to. Then go to iTunes Store and search for and download Netflix app. After you download it, if your iPad is set to download new purchases it may start downloading on your iPad. If so, tap and hold to delete the app (because it is trying to install the new version on the iPad) Next step, go to the App Store on your iPad and find Netflix and it should say install since you already purchased it on the computer. Tap to install, and it will say the version is not compatible, tap to download a previous version. Click that and it will install the older version!    One more thing, if and when you sync to your computer again it will say something like " Unable to install Netflix on your iPad" Just click the box to never remind you again, because it's trying to sync the newer Netflix app to your iPad, but it doesn't work so it displays the message. The old app will remain on the ipad. Hope this helps, good luck

  • How to make a commentary track in iDVD and iMovie 6

    Could someone please explain how to make a commentary track using iMovie6 and iDVD? I think I will be able to import the commentary track onto the second sound track in iMovie 6 with no problem. I just can't figure out how to make it an optional track in the final DVD.

    Yes, you can put the commentary track on the second sound track in 06. You can also attach a mic and make the commentary as a recording. I will caution that you will need to depress any original sounds associated with the film so that it does not sound like a garbled mess with both tracks competing. I imagine you know how to grab the volume level line in the audio track and nudge it lower or higher?
    I also don't see any other option than including two versions of the film on the DVD. Pretty simple fix if it will fit... I would export the plain film first before adding the other audio (or you can simply uncheck one of the audio tracks while exporting to mute it).

    I'm happy to see that your printer is working great and scanning properly. You say you renamed and saved the scans, but you are wondering how to send them via email/how to find them on your computer to send.

  • How to send group SMSes by using KvanttiSMS and JSP

    Hello again , I would want some help in implementing an SMS module that sends out a SMS message to a selected group of individuals from a database of several different groups .
    Now I have done a JSP GUI to allow the user to send a single SMS to one person .
    And my initial JSP codings for the Group SMS GUI were scrutinized and was said to be not functional by my lecturer .
    This is one of the technique that I know currently to send out an SMS :
    Connect to the database and get all the names of the groups .
    Using a while(column.next()) statement , the results will be placed into a drop down list in the JSP.
    The user selects the group from the drop down list and types the message as normal .
    The user presses the submit button and goes to the next JSP page (the 2nd JSP page sends out the SMS).
    The 2nd JSP page gets the group parameter and the message . Both parameters are placed into a string object.
    Using the string "group" object , another connection to the database is called .
    The database is called once again to retrieve handphone numbers that belong to groups that matches the string "group" object.
    using another while(column.next()) statement . The Sms terminal is called , initialized and used to send the message accordingly to the number of results .
    So is there any comment about this ? Please tell me what I should do if my method is wrong.

    I'm sorry ,
    actually the SQL statement uses the string "group" object to retrieve handphone numbers that belong to a person who is inside the same group as the string "group" object .
