URGENT HELP Burning DVD from Final Cut Pro

I have a video due to buyers bye wednesday. If anyone knows how to take the movie I made and burn it to a DVD, please let me know as soon as you can. It wont let me export it to iDVD and when I try to "print to video" my camcorder only picks up the sound and not the video. I need help PLEASE!!!!!!!!! Thanks everyone. Zack

For exporting to iDVD, chose FILE>EXPORT>QUICKTIME MOVIE (not quicktime conversion). Select SELF CONTAINED and USE TIMELINE SETTINGS. Then import this file into iDVD and when you click BURN, it will compress it to the DVD format for you.
As for the Print to Video issue, look at the following list to see if it is one of these:
Shane's Stock Answer #8:
A simple path is mac > firewire > camera or deck > rca cables > tv
Then start up your camera and tv, then open fcp.
Then go View > External video > all frames
Video playback should be Apple firewire NTSC (If you are using an NTSC set)
Audio playback should be Audio follows Video
Techinially, this should send synched video to your TV
If for some reason you can't view your timeline on your external monitor, there are a few things to try:
1) Make sure that the camera/deck is connected and powered on BEFORE you open FCP.
2) In the Final Cut Pro menu select AUDIO/VIDEO Preferences and make sure your signal is being sent out thru Firewire DV.
3) Go to the menu and select VIEW>EXTERNAL>ALL FRAMES.
4) Click in the % box above the image and select FIT TO WINDOW.
5) Go to VIEW->refresh A/V devices
6) Make sure the Log & Capture window is closed
If you want it to play in both the canvas and the external monitor you need to go to the FINAL CUT PRO menu and select AUDIO/VIDIO settings and make sure MIRROR ON DESKTOP is selected under the PLAYBACK OUTPUT section

  • Is it possible to create DVD Templates with Motion for burning Blue Ray DVDs from Final Cut Pro X?

    Is it possible to create DVD Templates with Motion for burning Blue Ray DVDs from Final Cut Pro X?

    As far as I know, motion templates can only be used with DVD Studio Pro. FCP X only lets you add a background image to the DVD menu.

    I'm sure the pros will be along to ask what your settings are.  Although this may not be exactly helpful, I did find compressor to be much more robust for burning DVDs.  This could partially be because it includes a template to convert you movie into correct DVD format.  I was quite pleased with the outcome after multiple failed attempts using FCPX alone.

    There have been a lot of recent reports of difficulties sharing to DVD, but haven't been hearing about unreadable disks. Posibly there was an encoding error. Or it could have been bad media (blank disk).
    Does it play in your Mac?
    What brand of disks are you using?

  • Trouble burning DVD in Final Cut Pro X (stops at 66%)

    I have been trying to burn a DVD on Final Cut Pro 10.1.4, but I find that it always stops the burning process at 66%.  An error does not pop up; it just simply stops at the same place every time.  I have tried burning different projects of different lengths, I have tried updating Final Cut, I've restarted the computer, and multiple other things that I've seen others have said worked for them, but every time it always stops at 66%.  I have been able to burn about 6 or 7 DVDs successfully before this problem started happening, but now I can't get a single one to work. 
    I seen where some said that this was a common problem in Final Cut when FCP X will hand the job to Create Disc to actually start the burn process, but I don't know how to fix it.
    I've tried so many different processes to make it work; could someone please help!

    Thank you for the reply!  I've been trying to burn each disk without an image for the menu, but I actually even seen where someone had said just to go into it and add a small picture for the background and then delete it and then hit share and that might get it to work. I've tried doing that multiple times, and it hasn't made a difference.  It still stops at 66%.   I didn't know if there was anything else I could try that might fix it.

  • URGENT HELP, How do you burn a DVD from Final Cut Pro

    This is my first video and I have to have it done by Wednesday, but I dont know how to take the movie from final cut and import to DVD Studio Pro. If anyone can help please let me know as soon as you can. Thanks Zack

    Hi Zack
    There are several ways to do it. To keep it simple just export a self contained movie out of FCP then import this into DVDSP. It will do all the encoding in the background for you. The prefered way is to export out of your timeline to Compressor and use one of the DVD-mpeg-2 presets. The preset you use depends on the the length of your project, the quality of the video, etc. Once you get to understand mpegging a bit more you can create your own settings to suit yourself. If you have to be done by tomorrow just keep it simple and get it done - then you can play another day : )
    Good luck

  • I can't burn a normal dvd from final cut pro.Help would be much appreciated!

    Hi.I am having great difficulty burning my final cut pro project to dvd.It is shot in HD and I have compressed it but when I burn a dvd it will not play in a normal/standalone dvd player.Could someone please tell me how to burn my project to dvd.Can HD film be burned to a normal dvd?The final cut pro file is only 1.3 GB.Any help/advice is much appreciated.Thank you.

    >Could you please tell me what the best settings to use when compressing to quicktime or if infact it has to be done at all?
    Matt has already told you twice; his first response (above) gave you step-by-step instruction.
    I'll spell it out for you again but with slightly more detail:
    1. In FCP, render the Sequence fully, then go to File->Export->QuickTime Movie.  (do NOT use "Using QuickTime Conversion).  In the export window, do NOT Recompress All Frames.  You can chose to make the movie self-contained or not.
    2. Use the resulting file in Compressor, where you will chose a DVD preset appropriate for your video's duration.  If needed, you can duplicate then modify any preset to better suit your needs.  Compressor will create two files; an MPEG-2 video file (.m2v) and a Dolby Digital audio file (.ac3).
    3.  Use the two files created by Compressor in DVD Studio Pro to author and burn a DVD.  Do NOT author an HD DVD as these will not play in DVD players.

  • Burning a DVD from Final Cut Pro X via Compressor - No audio?

    I have attempted to burn a DVD from a Final Cut Pro X project using Compressor, however the result was silent. 
    I used compressor because my FCPx project is in NTSC and my DVD is for air on Australian TV (PAL).
    Image seemed to burn OK however there is no audio.  Can anyone advise what I may have overlooked?
    This is the first time I have used Compressor, and I am fairly new to FCP X.
    thanks,
    Geoff

    Thanks Russ.  OK, I am now rendering again via Compressor 4, this time I have 2 files in one tab - 1) a MPEG-2 and 2) an AC3 file.  Seems to make sense.
    To burn the DVD immediately after, I added a 'Job Action' to 'Create DVD' after the render, and the dialog confuses me.  No problems with the 'Job Action' tab, but the "A/V Attributes" tab indicates the follwing:
    Type:  Final Cut Pro.app  (shouldn't this be a reference to the rendered file/s?)
    Video - showing the same dimensions of my FCPx Project file (NTSC  ..640 x 480)  instead of the MPEG-2 (Pal ...720 x 576).
    Audio - Properties show Linear PCM... 6 channels, etc... not the AC3 file.
    My question is, how do I create a DVD from the newly rendered files output from Compressor - is the Job Action the way to do it, and if so, how do I get it to reference the new files?
    Thanks,
    Geoff

  • Burning a DVD from Final Cut Pro X for DVD player

    I created my video in Final Cut Pro X 10.1. I then exported it by "Share" to "DVD" and burned it to a Sony VDV+R disc. I needed 6 copies. Some worked when I put it in the DVD player to show on our TV and others said "Can't read disc" even though I followed the same process. What am I doing wrong and how can I export a video to a DVD to show on TV via a projector or DVD player. I am on a MAC OS X (10.9.2)

    Ditto to Gary's comment.

  • Sync problem w/ DVD from Final Cut Pro X

    My project is a 2-hour play.  I improved the audio in ProTools then dragged it back into FCP.  I was able to get the improved audio to sync perfectly with the video (both are 48K), then mute the original audio.  I checked the whole 2-hour play for sync.  I burned a DVD, played it on my DVD player, and the audio gets ahead of the video around the 30 minute mark and keeps drifting.  Several DVD burns yield the same problem.  Any advice?

  • Burn dvd from Final cut

    I have upgraded to Quicktime Pro, and cannot export from Final Cut to QuickTime to burn a DVD on My G5, what am I missing

    Make sure you have registered your copy of QT Pro.
    Open QT then -
    Quicktime Player > Quicktime Preferences > Register
    Input your relevan SN and details.
    Also it might be worth giving your computer a restart if you haven't done so since upgrading to QT Pro.
    One thing I dont understand is that you should of automatically got QT Pro when you installed FCP.
    Once you have restarted - open your project in final cut and go -
    File > Export > Using Compressor
    (Again Compressor should have come with FCP Studio - What version of FCP are you on ??)
    Then in the "Settings" column select one of the DVD codecs relevant for your project that should appear near the top of the menu. Choose a destination and click submit. make sure you have selected your audio to be encoded as a dolby file aswell.
    Import the resulting mpegs into DVD Studio Pro and construct a DVD.

  • How do I achieve a high quality PAL SD DVD from Final Cut Pro?

    From a PMW-EX1 camera file edited in Final Cut Pro I am unable to produce a high quality PAL SD DVD using compressor and DVD Studio Pro (tried multiple combinations).
    Using Final cut pro and Magic iDVD I can achieve a high quality SD DVD with no changes in export.But am limited to the iDVD restrictions.
    From discussions it appears using compressor and DVD Studio pro it is not achievable, it is very frustrating that the Apple product you have to buy is not as efficient as the free one?
    If not possible then how do I access the encoded file from IDVD?
    My Final cut pro sequence settings:
    General - Aspect ratio: HDTV 1080i (16:9) 1920x1080, square and upper(Odd)
    Quicktime video settings compressor: xdcam ex 1080i50 (35 mb/s vbr)
    I

    iDVD does everything automatically for you. With DVDSP and Compressor, all steps must be done correctly. The trade off is that you achieve better quality using Compressor over iDVD.
    1. First thing to do is export your sequence as an uncompressed interlaced 25i 720 x 576 16x9 Anamorphic QT.
    2. Determine your optimal bitrate by using a bitrate calculator. Here's a good one. Remember you need to account for all video on the disc, including motion menus.
    http://www.videohelp.com/calc.htm
    3. Bring your down converted QT into Compressor and use the manual settings set your bitrate. Also encode out a Dolby digital AC3 file. These files take up less bandwidth than uncompressed audio. Also remember to match your upper fiiled dominate filed order as well in Compressor. This must be consistent throughout the export and encoding stages.
    4. bring your encoded video and audio files into DVDSP and author

  • Problem with picture in burned DVD from Final Cut Express quicktime file

    I use Final Cut Express HD to edit. On more than one occasion, I have exported a movie using quicktime conversion and then used iDVD to burn it to a DVD. Every time I do this, the DVD's picture is shaky, especially when there is fast motion. I have tried burning with both the best performance and best quality settings in iDVD and it doesn't make a difference. The same problem occured when I tried to use a friend's computer to do the same thing. We both have the new 20" iMacs. I am not sure if it is Final Cut or iDVD that is the problem, but quicktime files that are not from Final Cut Express are not a problem. I have a feeling it is a setting somewhere that needs to be changed. Thanks!

    Greetings.
    I've personally never used iDVD for any sort of DVD authoring, but the symptoms that you're describing are giving me the impression that there may be an issue with the MPEG 2 encode. Again, I don't know iDVD so you might be better off asking this question in the iDVD forum.

  • Burning a DVD from Final Cut Pro?

    Can anyone tell me how to import a Final cut movie into iDVD so I can burn a DVD. When I try it say's the files not compatible. I have to have this done by Wednesday, so I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks

    Hi Zachary,
    I have FCE, but my directions say:
    "To export a QuickTime movie for use in iDVD:
    1. Select a clip of sequence in the Browser or open a sequence in the Timeline.
    2. Make sure to clear all In and Out points in the Timeline by Control-clicking in the Timeline, then choosing Clear In and Out.
    3. Choose File>Export>QuickTime Movie."
    After you do this, save the QT movie. Close FC. Launch iDVD, Navigate to the Media tab, select Movies, find you FC QT movie and drag it into your DVD menu screen.
    Hope this is of help.
