Best export setting for HD Video

I am currently woriking with Final Cut Express HD and I am new to the whole HD experience. I would like to know what is the best exporting setting for FCE to be copied on DVD and viewed. I am currently working on a wedding project with a JVC Pro HD camera GY-HD110 720p. Any help will be appreciated. Thank You.

This is a question better asked in the FCE forum located at the link below:

  • What is the best export setting for video on blogger

    What is the best export setting for video from premeire to blogger.com or blogspot.com

    I have not been able to find the technical limits/specs for the site Blogger or blogspot.com. That is why I made the post here thinking some Adobe users may have experimented already and come up with good export settings for AVI DV video to a format optimized for Blogger.

  • Best export settings for HD video playback on computer?

    I have shot my video on 1080p witha DSLR and edited it in premiere pro. I exported the video in .mp4 format.
    Now i imported the video in after effects and added loads of animation. I want to export it to the best quality for playback ON COMPUTER ONLY. Which is the best export settings for this purpose.
    I rendered it in .avi and my 12 minute video had a size of 55GB after render and did not play smoothly in the computer.. PLEASE HELP WITH THE BEST SETTINGS for the above purpose.

    You messed up. You should NOT have rendered MP4 out of Premiere to use in AE. You're adding compression and quality loss in between stages. BAD video person!
    The easiest thing to do would be to import your Premiere project in AE. That way it can use the original footage too. If, for some reason, you can't do that, you should render a lossless file out of Premiere. Speaking of lossless files, that's what you rendered out of AE. This page explains your large AE file issue.
    Anyway, take that large file you render out of AE into the Adobe Media Encoder and render out your final compressed file. Either H.264 or WMV should work well for playback.

  • Best exporting setting for web

    What will be the best exporting setting from FILE>EXPORT> to share a HD projet on the web.
    Jean

    Convert it to h.264.
    Try this:
    File - Export - QT Conversion...
    Make sure QT movie is selected and where it says default... change it to Broadband High.
    Then go into the OPTIONS button and change the size to reflect the 16:9 aspect ratio...
    That will give you the quality you want I'm sure.
    As for # megs... well -- try a smaller SIZE option and then force it 2x or 1.5x from your web page.
    Good luck,

  • Best export settings for HD video to DVD

    hello, I now use premier pro cs5, from cs4 on my mac, love it, but I shoot with a cannon XL H1s HD video, my questiion is when viewing video from camera or on the screen in cs5, perfect hd picture, but when I export to DVD, i see in the media encoder if I choose mpeg2-DVD it goes output to 720x480, how do I export to dvd for the best HD seetings for DVD to get a HD playback on the DVD, now I see an OK video on the TV playback, but not the same as the original recording, can anyone help,, thanks in advance for any help.....

    I found (via a friend who is experienced in Pr & En) that it all comes down to the export/authoring settings.
    In Pr, my export settings needed to be adjusted as follows:
    Format: MPEG2-DVD
    Preset: PAL Progressive Widescreen High Quality
    Selected 'DVD' in the Basic Settings section of the
    Multiplexer tab (this creates a single mpeg file rather than a m2v file which has a separate video and audio file)
    Selected the highest possible quality (5) in the Basic Video Settings section of the Video tab, changed the TV Standard to PAL (to suit Australian TVs) and then
    Set the minimum/target/maximum bitrate settings to 8Mbps (when I set it at 9Mbps, the final file had too high a bitrate for DVD)
    In the Audio tab, I selected PCM as the audio type.
    I also ensured that the Use Maximum Render Quality checkbox was ticked at the bottom of the export settings window.
    Then I exported.
    Once encoding was complete I opened Encore, started a new project, selected DVD as the authoring mode and PAL as the Television Standard within the Basic settings for the new project. I then imported the final mpeg file as a timeline into Encore, set all the appropriate first play/title button/end play functions as necessary, then I opened the Edit Quality Presets window from the File menu and made the following settings;
    Format: MPEG2-DVD
    Presets: PAL DV High quality 8Mb CBR 1 Pass
    Basic Video Settings - Quality: set to maximum (5)
    Basic Video Settings - Field Order: None (Progressive)
    Basic Video Settings - Pixel Aspect Ratio: Widescreen 16:9
    Basic Video Settings - Bitrate Settings - Bitrate [Mbps]: set to maximum (9)
    Basic Audio Settings - Audio Format Settings: Audio Format: PCM
    click OK
    Then I authored the DVD and was quite pleased with the result. Still not quite to the quality I was hoping for (i.e. the quality of a DVD movie), but still a significant improvement on my initial attempts using default Pr & En settings.
    Hope it helps

  • Best export settings for SVHS video from Premiere Elements 12

    Hi
    when I view my SVHS video on screen via premiere elements 12 the quality looks very good. However, when I edit the video and save, the quality is quite poor.
    I need to know what is the best settings to save my video. Can anyone point me in the right direction. Thank you Tom

    TD
    I have some questions to ask and some suggestions to make for your consideration after you have concluded your discussions with SG.
    1. Am I assuming correctly that you used a firewire connection for your ADVC-55 capture? And, if so, what did you capture into - Premiere Elements 12 Capture Windows to give you DV AVI Type 2? In the gspot readout (to the left of the dialog), what does it say about the Container.
    2. Assuming that you have DV AVI Type 2 (4:3) files saved to your computer hard drive, have you tried
    For DVD-VIDEO PAL Standard Format on DVD disc
    a. Open Premiere Elements 12 new project to Expert workspace, File Menu/New/Project and Change Settings....Change project preset to PAL DV Standard....before leaving that area, making sure you have a check mark next to "Force Selected Project Setting on This Project".
    b. Then back in the Premiere Elements 12 workspace, Add Media/Files and Folders/Project Assets from where you drag you DV AVI to the Timeline.
    c. After edits and maybe menu application,
    Publish+Share/Disc/DVD burn to disc
    check mark next to "Fit Content to Available Space"
    Preset = PAL Dolby DVD
    Before hitting Burn in the burn dialog, note what the readings are in the burn dialog for Space Required and Bitrate. If the Bitrate is 8.00 Mbps at that point, that is good. More on that later.
    For Export To File (AVCHD.mp4)
    If you want to export, your Timeline to a file saved to the computer hard drive, please consider
    Publish+Share
    Computer
    AVCHD
    MP4 - PAL DV Standard
    If your details are other than that which I assumed, please let us know.
    We will be watching for further discussions and results.
    Thank you.

  • Best export option for music video?

    Hello,
    I'm trying to get a music video that my friends' band made in the suitable format (to get it transferred to betamax and handed over to local television stations). The video was actually made in Flash and exported to uncompressed quicktime video. The problem we encountered is that the guys who handle the transfer to betamax couldn't play the file on their windows pcs (not even in quicktime for windows).
    So, my question to you guys is; which format should I export the uncompressed video to in quicktime, keeping in mind that I want maximum quality (preferably no loss at all) and compatibility on a windows machine.
    Help greatly appreciated; we're on a deadline .
    Thanks in advance,
    Pieter-Jan Beelaerts

    Open it in iTunes and export it in DV to a DV tape camera and give the tape to the station. Or buy Flip4mac , the $49 or $99 version and export it to Windows Media.
    Or open in MPEG Streamclip and export to DV, and provide it on a DVD if it is short enough (DV is 13GB per recorded hour).
    If they want a tape, then export to DV and then open that in iMovie, and export to tape.
    Any TV station wil be OK with DV, they must get viewer submissions up the hoop.
    I would worry about quality degradation as well.

  • Best export setting for video taken with an iPhone 4?

    Whats the best way to do it and keep all the quality? Any presets i could have?

    These work perfectly for the IPhone 3 so i do not see any reason why the should not give the same result in 4.
    Just copied them from CS5.

  • What is the best export setting for burning a dvd?

    I am trying to export my senior thesis to a DVD, I've never burnt a DVD before and am using Adobe Premiere cs6. 
    I used a Canon7D 24fps to film and want the best quality of video and audio possible. 
    ALSO, after I've exported it, are there any other steps I need to take before burning it to a DVD?
    Please help!

    The best quality will be using an x264 encoder in CQ mode to create a Blu-ray.
    Next best is exporting using an H.264 Blu-ray preset for creating a Blu-ray.
    After that, exporting a lossless file for MPEG 2 conversion using the free HC Encoder using CQ mode, which will end up on a DVD.
    Last in the quality lineup, export using an MPEG2-DVD preset, changing the Min, Target and Max bitrates to 5, 7 and 9 respectively.
    Avoid Dynamic Link.

  • Best export setting for iMovie photo slide show for use on Mac or PC

    I've searched, no clear answer.... Simply trying to determine the best settings in iMovie 11 to export slideshow (no video, just stills using jpegs) that will ultimately be used primarily for viewing on a computer screen..either Mac or PC. Goal is highest quality..don't care about size.
    Am I even asking this question right?
    thanks!

    The presets are all h.264. They are pretty good. However, if you know what you are doing, you may get better results using export to QuickTime. It is not likely to look any better, but you may be able to get a smaller file size that looks about the same.

  • Best export settings for online video

    Hi there,
    Im looking for some advice on the best way of exporting a sequence, keeping very high quality of the sequence, but not taking an age to upload them.
    i have tried various settings but i seem to be having problems with either the file size being two big or the quality of my titles and logos in the video are grainy and low quality.
    please advise as soon as possible!
    Thank you!

    Hi, Thanks,
    It has a lot of magic bullet, and misfire vignette throughout, also snow using trap code particular in after effects, (the outdoor shots are imported after effects aep) also some speed change in places and a number of adjustment layers with various effects (blurs etc). So I guess pretty 'effect heavy'
    But the exported video looks absolutely beautiful from a quality point of view on my pc, and I assumed once exported these effects are completely embedded in the file and so have no bearing if you we're to re encode it (maybe I'm wrong)
    Bizarrely, I've checked it again this morning, and it looks much better!? Maybe YouTube takes a while to finish final encoding or something, but offers a lower res preview until complete?
    Also having done some reading, I think maybe 720p is a better option rather than 1080 as this is ultimately what youtube encodes to (as far as I'm aware)
    Really disappointed to have such an 'HD' video on my pc and pixelated video on YouTube!
    I've seen some absolutely beautiful videos on YouTube over the years ( from a quality point of view) so it must be possible!
    Thanks so much for your help, ill upload an example shortly

  • Advice of best export setting for HD

    Hello.  I am editing with CS4 and did my first HD project.  Project setup was fine, used Sony XDcam EX native MP4 footage that was shot HQ 1440x1080i.  Didn't show red render line in PRemiere so I believe the new sequence settings are correct (XDcam HD, 1080i (60i), 1440x1080, HD anamorphic 1.333, 29.97).   In Premiere the footage looks supberb, I just had to interpret footage as HD 1080 anamorphic in the Premiere bin so it displayed to the right aspect ratio.
    When I export with Media Encoder I find it looks compressed (softer) and on pans is blurs a bit with what looks like scan lines.  Motion stabilizer was shot off when I shot, so thats not the issue.  How do I get my HD project to encode to mpg2 and still retain the HD qualities.  I've tried so many setting combinations in Encoder. Here's an example:
    HDTV 1080p 29.97
    NTSC
    quality 5
    1440x1080
    29.97fps
    none (progressive)
    wide 16:9 (1.333)
    profile: main
    level: high
    bitrate: min. 8.33, target 15, max 18.5
    160 MB file size (sample 1 min 30 second clip)
    What is the recommended bit rate that most people can play back on their computers / DVD player?  Is it just not possible to get the quality unless you go BlueRay? What am I doing wrong?  Is encoder improved in CS5?
    Or should I be recommending a different playback format to clients?
    I'm lost and can't find the answers.  Thanks,
    Christine Z

    Christine,
                    You are getting very mixed up here or at least the language of your post is confusing.
    Regardless of what flavour of HD you shoot and edit in, compressing for SD DVD involves resizing and effectively 'downrezzing' your footage so it will never look as good as HD. In PAL land where I live SD DVD is 720*576, NTSC is I believe 720*480. So to compress something to watch on a DVD player you want to be using those dimensions to begin with - there is probably a DVD preset that does that.
    If, instead, you are talking about delivering to the client as some other file such as H.264, Flash or WMV then I would still down rez just to make it playback better - a 1440*1080 WMV wont play nicely on most PCs.
    The settings you state below, by the way, look more like those you'd use for HD DVD or Blu-Ray.
    In terms of using the Media Encoder in CS4, if it's any consolation, I've never got a decent HD to SD conversion out of it.
    Finally the quality of DVD or other file playback can vary enormously depending on the monitor so check it on a couple of others and if it's a DVD, try it on a TV.
    Maybe post exactly what you're trying to achieve and I'm sure others will chip in.

  • Best compression setting for SD video on iWeb 09 for instant start

    I've posted a website that has video clips on it and the video's play fine, but take about 2 to 3 minutes to load. No one wants to wait that long to watch a video. 3 of the video's are 2 minutes long and the 4th video is 7 minutes long. Is there a different setting in compressor that will keep decent video quality and allow the video to start playing as soon as possible. The current size is only half size and it still is taking a while to load. Thanks for your help.

  • Best export setting for Final Edit Master with AVCHD

    Hey Guys,
    I have been editing AVCHD footage shot from the Panasonic TM700 cam, footage shot in 1080p 60p.  After I have finished my edits and I want to render out a MASTER film that I can use in multiple fronts if I need, what is the best setting to render out to?
    I have a friend in the compression biz, and he tells me to render out to mpeg2 main concepts codec at 50Mbps setting, your thoughts?  In this setting I cannot render out at 59.94, only 29.97 or 30.  What should I do?
    Chris

    The best Master will be something lossless, something that doesn't degrade the image any further.  That leaves out all MPEG options.
    You can go Uncompressed, or install the free Lagarith or UT codecs on your system.  They're lossless codecs, so they will compress it to make a smaller file than full Uncompressed, but without any loss of quality.
    From there, you can use that to transcode to any other format you like.

  • Best Export Setting for TV 1080 with constant FPS

    1080 23.976fps  DSLR footage
    Coming from Final Cut Pro,  I would export a ProRes 1080 mov file for my TV.  This would give me a high quality playback.
    I have experimented with several export options in PP 6 and noticed choppy playback on my TV.  Upon closer inspection, the FPS appears to be changing with each frame. 
    What settings do I need for a constant 24fps with a high bitrate ?        

    4 Hours later, I am still waiting on the export of a 10 minute HD timeline.   The clips all have Magic Bullet on them but that's about all.    There must be a quicker workflow for this ?  
    My Final Cut workflow was the following...
    Export a 5-10 minute ProRes HD Sequence takes about 5 minutes!   I then open theProRes mov file and convert to H264 with a smaller dimension. I use quicktime player to make this conversion.  This takes me no more than 1 hour.   Total export and conversion with Apple's Final Cut averages about 1 hour and 20 minutes.
