Best Quality Export of Std Def Video from Final Cut Pro to AppleTV

I get beautiful results when exporting HDV content and AIC content from FCP to Apple TV but what is the best way to handle anamorphic SD content? I'm getting pillboxing (black bars on the side) when I do it directly from FCP's timeline. Of course I could open a QT file in QT Player Pro, change the aspect ratio to classic then do an export, but that creates one more level of unwanted compression.
Anyone?

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

  • 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.

  • What compression to use when Exporting HD video from final cut pro PAL setting

    Hi there
    I'm trying to export my HD video from Final cut Pro so that I can edit it in DVD studio Pro. I initially exported it on H.264 setting however it then gives me the message 'NTSC assets cannot be imported into PAL projects' It was edited with PAL setting so I think it must be the conversion but i'm not sure which option to use.....been really struggling to get the 1 hour footage under 4.5gb without losing too much quality...
    Any advice greatly appreciated!
    thanks

    Just to add two suggestions.
    1) Consider putting your four movies on two disks.
    2) Bring your movies into Compressor and duplicate the stock DVD setting. In the Encoding pane of the Inspector, select a CBR and dial it back to around 6.2 to 6.5 Mbs. In Preview mark a small section and submit; you'll get 2 elementary streams, with m2v and AC3 extensions. Bring that into DVDSP and evaluate results. Adjust as necessary. (This is to avoid waiting out very long encodes and then having to start again from scratch if you get disappointing results.)

  • Can't Export Video from Final Cut Pro

    After updated to OS Maverick, I can no longer export video from Final Cut Pro.
    It pops up "The operation couldn’t be completed. (com.apple.Compressor.CompressorKit.ErrorDomain error -1.)"
    ANYONE CAN HELP??

    10.0.2, I think this is where the problem is.
    I will update to the latest (10.0.9) and update this thread to see if this will resolve my problem.

  • I can't export my video from final cut pro.

    I'm having trouble exporting anything from final cut pro x because there isn't any share button that I was use to before. It pretty much seems like there are no options seeing as they have simplified it to the point where there are no longer any options. Anyways here is a screen shot of my final cut hopefully someone will be able to help me.

    The Share menu changed in 10.0.6, and is now customizable from the Preferences of FCPX:
    You find the Share menu to the far right in the toolbar, as dastoelk wrote.
    (The screenshoots he posted is missing here, so here you go again)

  • Can't Export Any Videos From Final Cut Pro X?

    Hello all-
    I just downloaded FInal Cut Pro X today, and as I tried exporting my first video to YouTube, I found I had no luck. I am able to select the option to export to YouTube, enter in my account details, edit the video preferences, but when I click submit nothing happens. The little export box just disappears. This happens for every single one of my share options.
    Anyone have any ideas on how to fix this? I'm a little peeved that I just spent 300 dollars on a software that doesn't even let me export the video.
    Thanks much,
    Megan

    Did you open the background task window?

  • I can't export video from final cut pro trial

    I'm currently using final cut pro trial.
    i have finished a project, and tried to export the video.
    There's not "share" on tool bar, but there' one under "file" toolbar.
    To share, i have to add destination, but I can't add any destination

    The Share button is in your image. It's the last button in the toolbar and it appears active in your screen shot.

  • Can I import a video from Final Cut Pro

    I'm doing a :45 sec. video clip in Final Cut and Kinemac for a local church. They want pre-recorded backround music that fades out at the end. Can I import this video into GB for the music..
    Thanks.
    NN

    What do you mean by "this video"? The FCP file? No, but any rendered version: Show the video track in GB and pull the video over.
    The question is: Why would you want to do this? If it's just about fading out the music, as you write, FCP will happily do that for you.

  • I keep getting wavey video from Final Cut Pro X. Help!

    Hey everyone. I've got a problem that is driving me crazy. Recently, every video I've finished making would come out wavey (during a camera pan or when someone moves, etc., there will be waves). I have been using the default/recommended settings of ApplePro Res 422, 48khz, etc. and my videos are 30p. I haven't noticed it happening while I am editing, only when I hit the "Share" button to finalize the video. A small symbol with a triangle with waves around it appears next to the video name in the project bar.
    I am using the latest Macbook Pro 2011 (which came out in March or April). I have 8gb memory and 500gb so I know I have the necessary requirements. Does this have to do with the settings or is this another problem? Please help this is driving me nuts! 
    (Another quick question. All the titles are working fine except for "Knockout". When I apply it nothing happens at all. How do I fix this?) Thank you.

    SSign in to the App Store using the Apple ID that was used to purchase the software.

  • Wish to save export setting of H.264 from Final Cut Pro

    I am using the quicktime conversion pull-down menu in FCP to create H.264 or MPEG-4 files with certain settings for Vimeo. I wish to save my settings for export rather to avoid having to re-enter them next time. The most recent settings option is not sufficient for me as I have a couple different sets of settings. In the quicktime conversion menu I do not have the option to save my settings like I do in the export quicktime movie pulldown.
    Is my solution using compressor? If so, do I then have to use APak to compress the audio?
    Thank You.

    You can build custom presets in Compressor and use those.
    The procedure is quite straightforward and covered in the Compressor user manual.
    do I then have to use APak to compress the audio
    No, you can let Compressor handle the audio too.

  • Why does Compressor take so long to export a 10 minute video clip from Final Cut Pro?

    I've been trying export a 10 minute clip from Final Cut Pro. so it can be used with DVD Studio Pro and burned. However, the rendering process has taken 12 hours! The clip I'm exporting has minimal effects, no music, and is in 1080i 30fps. Does anyone know what's going on or what I can do to speed up the process?

    First: How are you exporting? Are you using the Share feature or  Send to Compressor?
    Second: You haven't said anything about your system configuration or really very much about your movie. What is its format… is it really 30fps or 29.97? Whatever it is, are the project settings identical to the clip properties, or were they changed?
