I need to transfr a project from final cut pro 6

I need to transfr a project from final cut pro 6 to an editor with final cut pro 5.
will they have the problem of not being able to open the file? any suggestions out there?

Welcome to the forum!
FCP project files are NOT backward compatible with older versions. But you can export an XML file of your FCP 6 project, then use the XML file to build a new project in FCP 5. Check the manual for details.

How do I export a project from Final Cut Pro onto my desktop?

How do I export a project from Final Cut Pro to my desktop as a movie?

Can anyone please help me.. when I click on my timeline in my project library and try to export movie nothing happens! and when I try to "share" to youtube I get an error message stating that it cannot be exported because it contains "no video"... The 4 minute music video that I've created with shots off my Canon T2i looks and plays great....If I uploaded the videos into Final Cut but did not save them on my desktop or anywhere else on the Mac would this be a reason to get this message? I have never experienced this before...the only option under "share" that works is "email"

Export project from final cut pro to Avid

What are my options to create a workflow that implies doing my last trims on Avid (Adrenaline and Nitris?)
My idea is to create almost ended videos on Final cut Pro 5 by myself and expend a last day or two on an Avid Nitris to do the final touches, mixing audio and output the stuff...
the videos are industrial video and small budget commercials that requires more effects that Final Cut can offer me...
THANKS IN ADVANCE

First off, you'll need PRO EXPORT FCP>AVID from www.automaticduck.com.
Then you'll need to recapture all the footage used in the sequence into the Avid, since FCP and Avid capture media differently.

Moving Project from Final Cut Pro X Trial to full program

Im currently running a trial copy of FCP X and will likely buy it. Once I've purchased a copy from the app store, does it recognise the trial version and make that a full version or is it a seperate app (as I suspect).
If its the second one as Im guessing it will be, is there an easy way to transfer a project from the trial version into the main app.
Apologies if this sounds like a dumb question, but I need to know the answer

Sorry I've found an answer to this on another post, I did try and search for it but it only appeared when this one was posted!
Can't find a way to delete this, but thanks in advance if you were about to help.

How to send a project from Final Cut Pro X, to adobe Audition

Anyone familiar with exporting a project or just audio from FCPX to Adobe Audition?

Thanx for your reaction. I want to edit Final Cut soundtracks in Adobe Audition and import them back again in FCPX.
I found out a good workaround.
First export the project as roles in separate files.
You can import these files in Audition; edit them etc.
Simple as that and no extra costs.

I am not able to export a certain project from Final Cut Pro X.

I have never had this problem before. It is only on this certain project. The Share menu will not let me select anything. I even deselected the render background option and it did nothing. Should I just start over?

I had a similar thing happen to me using 10.0.3. Even though I'd been working on the project, when it came to export the menu was all grayed out, as though nothing was selected for export.
I got around it by going back to the project browser, clicking it, opening it again in the timeline and making sure I'd selected a clip from the project.... then it would let me export.
It's never happened since I upgraded to 10.0.4 and I have no clue what I was doing wrong before.... sorry it's no help, but try everything else before starting again (unless it's short and easy!!)

Can I export a project from Final Cut Pro X to FCE?

Hello All,
I have the most current version of FCE and I am about to purchase FCPX. It looks like FCPX won't export to tape so that is why I want to export it to FCE and then to tape. Can this be done?
Thanks,
Mike

You can export a QuickTime Movie from FCPX. Take to movie to FCE and print to video from there.

Exporting From Final Cut Pro 5.0

Hello,
I need to export my work from Final Cut Pro 5.0 to a Quicktime Movie with the following settings -
Compression: H.264
Frame Rate: 15fps
Bit Rate: 200k
Is this posible without loosing the quality of the video footage? The footage was capture from a MiniDV tape.

Is this posible without loosing the quality of the video footage? The footage was capture from a MiniDV tape.
If you want full resolution 640 x 480 then 200Kbps isn't going to look very good. As a guide you can note that Apple is using about 600Kbps to encode the iTunes video content and that has a resolution of only 320 x 240. However, since you're only using a frame rate of 15fps you should be able to produce good looking content at just over 1Mbps for 640 x 480.
Of course, it does depend upon the nature of your source video (the subject). Simple "talking head" shots could go lower, while rapid action material might need considerably more than 1Mbps (along with a higher frame rate).

Command to Export project as Final Cut Pro XML from jsx script

Hi All,
Can somebody get me the command to export the project as final cut pro xml from jsx script.
I was using the extension builder script earlier for cs6 panel development, so we were using pjct.exportFinalCutProXML("pathname");
Now I am working for panel in Premiere CC so working on HTML 5 panel and qe dom scripting(.jsx).
In some jsx examples i got there is script to export sequence as final cut pro xml but cannot get the code for project export.
project.activeSequence.exportAsFinalCutProXML(entire_out_path);
Also please let me know if there are any kind of reference available about all the functions and properties in the pe dom scripting for premiere pro cc.
I am using premiere pro cc 7.1, windows 7, Eclipse Kepler.
Thanks in advance,
Anoop NR

When you reimport the exported project XML to FCP, do you get the full project or just the single bin/sequence? If you get the full project then it sounds like you need Premiere help, not FCP help ... have you tried asking on the Adobe forums? If you only get the single bin/sequence then it seems you might have inadvertently selected those prior to creating the project export. Try making sure that your FCP Browser window is active and that you have not selected anything within that window prior to using the File > Export > XML command. If that still causes issue then you might try using an earlier FCP XML version.
Hope it helps

I've recently messed up my Mac OS X Lion by deleting Aperture, but I need to get my data out of the computer. And by the way, I've got an important project in Final Cut Pro X. Is there any way I can back it up (including fxs and positions of the clip) ?

Hello everyone
I've recently messed up my Mac OS X Lion by deleting Aperture, but I need to get my data out of the computer. I've tried to repair it using DU, but it said I needed to backup all my data and reinstall the OS. How do I backup my data to an external drive?
And by the way, I've got an important project in Final Cut Pro X. Is there any way I can back it up (including fxs and positions of the clip) ?
Hope you guys can help me!

You need to back up 2 folders, Final Cut Events and Final Cut Projects which by default are located on your Movies Folder. You can always check by clicking on a clip inside Fianl Cut X and selecting Show in Finder in the contextual menu for the selected clip.

Best setting for hd project from final cut

i'm ready to export an HD project from final cut. i want to use compressor to export it and then to import it on DVD Studio Pro and burn it on DVD. what setting should i use when exporting it using compressor?

If you plan to deliver on DVD, use the DVD preset in Compressor that comes closest to matching your program's duration. If you plan to add menus or other extras, take that ito account when determining which preset to use.
Keep in mind that DVD is a STANDARD DEFINITION format only so your HD footage will be scaled down to fit 720x480 (640x480 square pixels). You can make an HD DVD, but that is an obsolete format and will not play in any regular DVD player.

Burning a video from Final Cut Pro using iDVD

When I export and save my video from Final Cut Pro to a folder (export->Using Quick Time Conversion). When I do that there are several different videos that are saved in my folder (ie-Kelly Michelle; Kelly Michelle-av1; Kelly Michelle-av2; Kelly Michelle-av3; Kelly Michelle-av4; Kelly Michelle-av5).
iDVD is the program I need to use, I do not have any other programs. Therefore, I import the file to iDVD and once everything is ready in iDVD I try to burn the dvd. However, in the last stages of burning a window pops up and says that "an error was found during the burning process". It does not tell me what kind of an error it is. Does anyone have any advice or a step by step process that I need to do in order to burn my dvd successfully.

The simplest way to prepare a video for iDVD is to *Export/Quicktime Movie* (NOT Using Quicktime Conversion), select Current Settings, Audio and Video and, depending on your needs, other 2 options:
o- +Make Movie Self-Contained+ is preferred to have an independent movie (you can move the exported file, you can continue editing your FCP project before burning the exported version, etc.) but requires more disk space and more time for exporting.
o- +Chapter Markers+ (NOT All Chapters) must be selected if you created Chapter Markers in FCP (markers in the timeline, not the clip, and clicked the Add Chapter Marker button in the marker dialog).
The resulting .mov file (whether self-contained or reference) may be easily imported to iDVD.

Importing imovie project into Final Cut Pro

Hello I need help getting my HD imovie project into final cut pro. I recored the project in 24p and it's already imported into imovie. What is the best way to get it into Final Cut Pro so that I can edit it further without sacrificing the quality.
Another problem is that I have heard that imovie compresses the video and totally ruins the quality. Is this true? And is this reversible in any way? I have already recorded over all the clips for this project on my camcorder. How screwed am I?
-Michael

First thing to do is find your original clips that you captured in IMovie. I don't have much experience in IMovie, but see if you can select a clip and control click and choose reveal in finder. If that works, open one of these clips in quicktime player and hit command-i and let us know the format of the clip.
Kind of doubt you'll be able to actually import your project into fcp, but you should be able to recreate it in fcp without too much difficulty.
Let us know what camera you shot and captured from. That may be of some help.
Hopefully someone with more experience in IMovie will speak up, but hopefully this will get us started.
