Audio won't follow in- point when exporting from Final Cut Pro

I am using Final cut Studio 2 on a Brand new mac pro which is connected to a an AJA IO pro box (not IO HD). If I set an in point on a time-line in Final Cut pro and send it to Compressor, only the video uses the in point. The audio starts from the beginning of the time-line. This is a huge annoyance and something I used all the time on my G5.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks in advance for your help.

Yea that worked. I was mostly trying to debug it for my client today, since they have the same system I do, minus the AJA and I have no problems sending to compressor with or without marks. Is this a "known" bug or is something with the AJA setup?

Files don't play smoothly when exporting from Final Cut Pro

Hello,
I have this strange problem that's haunting me for weeks (well months now)...
I've made some videos, shot with a HD-camera (Sony, HDV HDR-FX1E (PAL)), 1080i), and I want to export it to the apple TV.
The problem is that the videos on the appleTV dont't run smoothly, they don't really stutter, but they do have a problem, like they're missing a frame...
Now, I don't know what it is, but I tried everything.
I've tried all different settings in
- Compression, like progressive, deinterlacing, keeping the interlacing, changing it to lower field, changing the framerate to 24 fps (as I read somewhere in another post as that 25 fps would be the problem).
- MPEG Streamclip
- ffMPEG
- Visualhub
Well, I even tried it on a PC...
But all with the same result.
Then I tried it to convert the to DV (through the camera). But all with the same result.
So I thought it could be on my footage, but my originals are fine. When playing on my TV they play smoothly, even the edited ones.
When exporting the same edited files to DVD, the DVD plays fine without a hitch, but you can see a downgrade in quality...
The standard conversion settings where:
1280x720 (PAL) @ 25fps, 3 kbs (I started higher, but i downgraded), and then I tried all the above settings...
I also lowered the dimensions, but that didn't work either.
Then I dit a few tests with Handbrake and converted a (home-)DVD and, as to my surprise, I had the same problem!
BUT! The apple TV plays trailers and movies from the store without any problems...
TV is set to 1080i (Sony). But I also tried 720p, 576i, 576p, all with the same effect...
On the tv side... The files are not streamed. They are played directly from the hard disk.
Even though, streamed or directly, the problem stays the same...
I'm really desperate.
If there's anyone who could help, thanks in advance!
Kind regards,

Been trying something else in the meantime...
On a Plextor MediaX, the files play fine and perfect, either in MPEG2 HD (ts), or Xvid HD (avi), on the same TV as the appleTV.
I've encoded them through Xilisofts video-converter (PC) and ffmpeg (Mac).
But still no luck with appleTV and the h264 encodings... The stuttering there remains
Could anyone give me the right settings for PAL and HD? Can I use 25fps?
(Well, the usual settings in Compressor doesn't seem to work, so if anybody has some more advise?)
Or could there be something wrong with my appleTV?
My rentals play fine? I don't understand it...
Well, thanks for your time,
Regards,

Audio dropout when exporting from Final Cut Pro X

My video looks fine on the timeline, but when I try to export the audio drops out at the first edit. Anyone know why? I haven't had this problem on the previous videos I've cut on FCPX, and I haven't changed the settings on either importing or exporting, so I'm totally confused and frustrated!
Thanks!

Luckily I wasn't risking days of work.
Our in-laws were coming round yesterday and I suddenly remembered that I had promised them DVDs of our grandson.
So I desperately started editing a couple of hours before they were due and of course one problem after another cropped up, partly caused by one of the videos being shot on an AVCHD camera I had bought a fortnight ago together with one on my old HDV camera.
Anyway they went away with the DVDs albeit the AVCHD shot one had no dissolves!

"media server application expectly quit" when submitting from final cut pro

browsing through the list, it seems the problem couldn´t be solved so far.
doing some systematic testing, the following riddle shows up:
... when adding a QT ref movie (or movie) directly to the compressor batch list and submit to the cluster, everything runs fine.
... when exporting from final cut pro:
menu -> export -> using compressor ...
submitting in compressor using:
1) Cluster: this computer: everything keeps running fine.
2) Cluster: MylovelyCluster ....
the job fails with the message "Failed: HOST [clusternode_name.local] media server application unexpectedly quit"
since there is 5TB + of data to be compressed, copying files to the render nodes is not an option. all data is on a shared xraid, connected via giganet.
Any ideas, any hints appreciated !
regards,
p.s. Anybody running an XSAN having the same issues?
G5s, G4s, G3s, macminis, powerbooks Mac OS X (10.4.7) xraid

... well, the answer is in other topics.
showstopper explains it patently again and again ...
thanks from here.
shortly: when submitting from FCP, every node HAS to have FCP installed and MUST have access to the same relative file path (mounted shared volume). If the volume is not present, the render node will open the reconnect media dialogue and waits for user input.

Color differences when exporting from Final Cut

I have a big problem when exporting from Final cut to any file format. The colors and contrast looks fine in Final cut and on my external monitor but when exporting to, for example, H.264 I get a file that is "washed out". Colors are bleak and the over all feel is not what I expect. The funny thing is that if I import the exported file into Final cut it looks fine. What am I doing wrong? Can anyone help me out with this?

QT brightens the image. Dunno why...perhaps so that it ensures that every monitor can see it?
Here is an example:
But I don't know why that is.

Can files be exported from Final Cut Pro X trial?

It doesn't seem to work on mine, when I go to command: the export button is in grey, whereas all the others (import; customize) are black and can be actionned. Is this a restriction in the trial version or is there a way to activate export?
Thanks

How to play an HD movie exported from Final Cut Pro?

How to play an HD movie exported from Final Cut Pro? on a mac?
Most FCP users export them in a high-effeciency distribution/delivery compression format (e,g,, H.264/AAC) targeted for a particular application and/or device. For example, you could export using H.264/AAC at full display resolution for playback in the QT Player at an appropriate data rate if your platform and display can handle the output. TV would limid the video to 960x540 at 30/29.97 fps and normal AAC audio to 160 kbps at 48.0 KHz. Files exported for display an the Internet would be restricted by the bandwidth being targeted. Etc, etc, etc. Unless the file will only be played on your own platform, what you do not want to do is use an FCP only compression format which would limit viewers to those recipients have the same FCP codecs installed.

How to Free up Disk Space to export from Final Cut Pro to QuickTime?

I am using Final Cut Pro on a Mac OX10. When I try to export a Final Cut Pro project to QuickTime I get a message saying that I do not have enough disk space available. How do I free up additional disk space? (I am a little confused because I have already deleted more disk space than I am current trying to use)
Powerbook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.7)
Mac OS X (10.4.7)
Mac OS X (10.4.7)

Might try restarting the computer, just to refresh the system's memory... be sure you empty the trash too... the new space won't show up until you do.

Best video format to export from final cut pro to encore

hi, i'm using final cut pro and no matter what format i export my video in, be it quicktime, mpeg2 or avi, there's still a slight degradation of picture quality when i import it into encore. mpeg2 by far suffers the least. but is there a best video format i can export from final cut to adobe so dat there's minimal loss in quality?

Sure, export it as an uncompressed AVI or QT file.

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).

FLV Export From Final Cut Pro

Hi Folks,
I've been reading and reading and just want to know what is
the right way to go about exporting video from a third party
application like Final Cut Pro. Yes, the easy way is to
Export>quicktime conversion and go from there. If this is the
best way then great, But i'm wondering if exporting as a lossless
quicktime codec such as the Video codec or the Anitmation codec
would be a better choice then go to the flash video encoder with
the lossless file. I heard that exporting straight out of FCP could
be bad as the video needs to be deinterlaced before the flv stage.
If this is the case, what are the best settings when
exporting a lossless quicktime file? There are about 6 setting s
that need to be set and I haven't a clue what would be the right
settings.
If exporting from final cut straight to flv, are you folks
dropping the frame rate to 15 fps(cutting your frames in half). Is
this working better for you?
Well thanks for all your help, I keep on testing short clips
and can't seem to find a any certain configuration that i really
like.
hanks so much for all your help.
todd

Todd ..
We do quite a bit of video / flv work.
Our editing software is VEGAS so unfortunately we can't
render directly to flv .. but avi->flv via Sorenson Squeeze.
If Final Cut allows rendering directly to flv, my
recommedation would be to use that functionallity. Caveats .. if
the encoder can 1. deinterlace i.e. progressive scan. 2. reduce
your framerate from 29. to 15. 3. gives you the ability to control
# of key frames.
The logic being .. use the fewest number of encoding methods
to get from source to output to maintain best quality.

Problem exporting from final cut pro to compressor

Hi,
I'm trying to export to compressor from Final cut pro, but every time i do so, I keep getting the same error message 'Selection contains no media' but it does. It will export to Quicktime fine. I'm only trying to export to compressor so I can save it as an mp2 file.
I'm using FCP V5.0.4
Compressor V2.0.1
Mac OS X V10.4.8
Also on previous versions of FC I could output to Mp2 and it would include the chaper markers, my last sucessfull project, it did not.
Any help would be greatfully recieved.

Exporting from Final Cut Pro

Hi I have shot a show that ran for 2 hours. I have edited and now just need to know how I should export it and what format so it can fit on a dvd. I will be using iDVD 5 for the menus, and I am under the impression iDVD 5 doesnt support mpeg 2 files. So i need another way to export from Final Cut and then put it in iDVD 5 then onto a dvd.

I'm afraid I've mis-stated some information, and I apologize.
First, you would need to select 'best QUALITY' for anything over 60 minutes.
Generally iDVD5 should successfully create a 90 minute DVD. It is supposed to be able to create up to 2hours of content, but that would include all media creation items, including movie file(s), motion menus, drop zones, music...etc.
I had come across a link that discussed creating longer DVDs in iDVD, but it works with iMovie and is not totally relevant to this forum.
Again I apologize, but if it interests you, here is the link...
