Best settings to export with Quicktime to 1080i

I made my movie with iMovie.
Now I want to export it with the best HD quality.
I use +share - export with quicktime+ and then what are the best settings?
thank in advance.

It depends.
If you are burning a BluRay Disk, use Export using Quicktime to Apple Intermediate Codec.
This will produce a very large intermediate file, but you will not need it after burning your BluRay disk with Toast 9.
Details:
Share as Quictime...
Quicktime Movie
Compression Type: AIC
Frame Rate: Current
Compressor preset: Other. interlaced, top field first
If you want to play the file on your Mac, or on a Sony PS3, you will want to create a more compressed file.
Use
1) export from iMovie using Share using Quicktime...
2) select format MPEG-4
3) select options:
a) under file format select MP4 (not MP4 ISMA)
b) under video tab select H.264
data rate in of 18000 kbits/sec
image size---1920X1080HD
frame rate---select 29.97 (I am NTSC)
key frame---select either automatic or every 24 frames
video options---select "MAIN" profile and single pass encoding
under audio tab select default AAC-LC
under streaming tab select default "not enabled"

  • Best settings to export with least compression

    I am adding Denoiser to some clips in my project.  Best workflow is to add to raw footage, render out and bring back into project (to edit and render to final export).  I am working with AVCHD footage - 1920 x 1080 30 fps.
    What is the best setting to choose to export to with the understanding that I will bring the footage back into PPRO CS5 to edit and render for a second time?
    Thanks,
    Lisa

    Thank you Todd.  I went to your link and found myself a little bit lost.  I am looking for the "when you create a movie for an intermediate stage in a  post-production  workflow, it is usually losslessly compressed (or even  uncompressed). "
    Can you point me to a specific article or video on lossless settings for AME?  I found lots of information on your link, but not this. 
    Thanks so much,
    Lisa

  • Settings for exporting to quicktime

    May i know whats the best settings to export to quicktime, using manual advance settings?
    I realized there is a delay whenever i hit the "next button"
    also, whats the best settings for me to export to quicktime?

    Are you making your DVD with iDVD? If so you can just share to iDVD from the Share menu. Otherwise, here are the settings that I use. I'm not going to say they are the best settings, but I have had good luck with them.

  • Best way to export a quicktime for crisp/clear text

    I created a few 60 second text animations and they look perfect when viewing on my NTSC monitor but the text is fuzzy in the NTSC DV quicktimes I made. I exported them at DV resolution because I was originally told the final piece would be on DVD but it turns out they will be projected from a laptop. What are the best settings for exporting a quicktime for this purpose?
    -Jon

    When you created them, did you scale them using the "Scale" option under the Motion tab, or the "Size" option under the Control parameters? You should be using "Size".

  • Best settings to export for the web?

    Hey everyone,
    What do you think is the best setting to export video to web? I export now using quicktime and once in a while (I would like to use it more often since its much easier) compressor. So what is the best settings to export video to the web without having it get all blurry? I also use an XL2 so the video is good.

    JB
    but I'm concerned about whether H264 is accessible by an audience outside the Mac umbrella.
    They need QT7 installed.
    You can get Flip4Mac and add WMV export capabilities to QT. I'm sure that with a little of experimentation you'll get good results and the needed component isn't expensive.
    Hope that helps !

  • Which are the best settings for exporting comps before edditing in Premiere Pro

    Hello everyone!
    As the title says, which are the best settings for exporting comps from AE to Pr.Pro and then edit them?
    Let  me explain: I have two comps in AE (intro and outro) and want to export  them in Pr.Pro for edditing along with a fottage i shot.
    When i render them the size of the files are huge (30 sec= 7GB).
    Which  is the best method (and settings) i can export the intro and outro to a 'normal' file  size and then put them in Pr.Pro without loosing any quality??
    [Comp settings: HDTV 1080 29.97 (1920x1080)]
    AE and Premiere Pro both CS4

    If you're rendering and exporting an intermediate video file to go from After Effects to any other piece of post-production software (such as Premiere Pro), you want to make sure that you're not losing any quality.
    Most compression methods, which make movies smaller, also lose some of the image data---i.e., quality. There are a few compression methods that don't lose any image data; these are "lossless" codecs. These lossless codecs do decrease the size of a video file, but they're nowhere near as effective at decreasing size as the lossy codecs are. But file size isn't important when you're doing post-production work. Big files are a fact of life in post-production.
    Examples of lossless codecs include the PNG codec and the Animation codec at the highest quality settings, both of which can be used in a QuickTime (.mov) container. I prefer the PNG codec; it's more efficient for photorealistic images, whereas Animation is more efficient for things like cartoons. There are lots of other lossless and nearly lossless codecs. A lot of people that do video editing like the Lagarith codec, but that is something that you'd have to go and get; it's not part of a standard CS5 or QuickTime installation.
    See these FAQ entries for information about compression and why file sizes are big for losslessly encoded files:
    "FAQ: Why is my output file huge...?"
    "FAQ: What is the best format for rendering and exporting from After Effects?"
    By the way, keep in mind that you don't always need to render and export an intermediate movie to go from After Effects to Premiere Pro. There are other ways to move data back and forth between these applications, including Dynamic Link. Which is best depends on the specific circumstance. See "Working with Premiere Pro and After Effects".

  • Best Settings for Exporting DVD Footage in a Movie File

    Hello,
    I've been trying to find the best settings for exporting DVD footage into a movie file from Adobe Premiere CS6.
    I recently have been using my Magnavox DVD recorder for recording VHS tapes that I made long ago for shows and various other things, and no matter what, my footage doesn't come out as it needs to be.
    Here's an example of what I did recently with my own settings:
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qFV4sT7rHGs
    I'm not expecting HD footage, I know these are tapes, but I'm playing the raw footage on my Xbox 360, and it looks better than this. I had to directly use the VOB files on the DVD for this, as trying to rip the files into an AVI or any other format with a DVD ripper didn't do anything, in fact it degraded the quality and made the audio not play in Premiere.
    So what would be some good settings for exporting a sequence with DVD footage that is from a VHS into a movie file, preferably one that wouldn't degrade the quality?
    Thanks!

    First, read Why not edit mpeg http://tangentsoft.net/video/mpeg/edit.html to get a general idea of why a VOB makes a very poor source file (which is a renamed MPG, with some other stuff like menu screens)
    Also, Read Bill Hunt on editing a VOB/MPG file http://forums.adobe.com/thread/464549
    Once you have a DVD compliant VOB on your timeline, and understanding that a standalone DVD recorder sometimes plays fast-n-loose with "compliance" per the DVD specification, about all you can do is export to standard or widescreen DV AVI and accept the fact that re-encoding an already compressed file is just not going to give great results

  • Error when exporting with Quicktime

    I'm having some problems exporting with Quicktime from iMove '08. Here are my settings:
    (The highlighted portion says 20,000 kbits/sec)
    I have exported using these settings before, but for some reason, it gives me error code -2002 when it finishes exporting now, and tells me that it can't export. Anyone know what error code -2002 is? I can't find it here or on Google. Exporting straight to m4v worked just fine.

    I'm exporting at those dimensions because that's just where I had it set (lol). I didn't even realize it was HD until just now, but like I said, I put the lowest possible data rate (32 kbits/sec) and the smallest dimensions possible (160x120) and it still didn't work.
    However, I had completely missed the fact that the audio wasn't being exported. I reset the audio settings and tried again on the smallest setting, and that worked. Thanks for your help!

    What version of Premiere Elements are you using on Mac?
    Export your Timeline content to a .mp4 file, using export settings which have been customized under the Advanced Button/Video Tab of the export's preset.
    See Publish+Share/Computer/AVCHD and .mp4 category. The exported file is then uploaded to YouTube at the YouTube web site.
    If you post the properties of your source video and project settings, I will suggest the settings for the Timeline content export to file saved to the computer
    hard drive for upload to YouTube at the YouTube web site.

  • Best settings for exporting from AE

    Hi,
    I am wondering what the best settings to export to from AE for editing in Premiere CS5.5. Previously I would digitize from tape and would export lossless .avi from AE but now I am using XDCAM EX 1080 50i sequence presets on Premiere and I wonder if I should amend the settings from AE or just keep them as lossless?
    As always thanks in advance!

    Keep it lossless.

    best quality then use high bitrate, small size use low bitrate.

    The "restore disk" is built into the Mac. See About Recovery.
    Need more specifics about what error messages you got while installing Adobe Flash.
    However, you can almost avoid Flash altogether by setting YouTube to play the HTML5 version instead.
    Click the Try something new! link at the bottom of the YouTube page.
    I don't know about the sound issue. Might be hardware as you think. Try other headphones to check.

  • What's the best settings to Export movie for smaller file sizes?

    Hi, I've been working on some helmet cam footage which was taken with Xvidmpeg4.avi and was advised to convert it to dvavi for editing in PrE, this created a huge file to work with, the original footage was 206mb and the finished edited dvavi file is now 1.56gb, what settings can I use to export the movie with a much smaller file size, but hopefully try to retain some quality, to upload to places like Vimeo? I thought I would try to export it in the same as the original footage Xvidmpeg4.avi thinking this might compress it again to something like the 206mb of the original and the original was good quality footage, but PrE just hangs up with a box stating 'Xvid Status (Not Responding)' and when I try to cancel that the whole thing crashes and closes? So when I go to File > Export > Movie, what would be the best settings in:
    General > File Type ?
    Video > Compressor
    lots of options under compressor if I select the file type as Microsoft AVI, so I'm guessing something under that would compress it to a smaller file size but what, I could spend all night trying different settings so hoping for some advice?
    Or, if I'm completely in the wrong place for the settings and should be doing something else please tell me?
    Thanks, Gav

    Thanks for the replies, but to me it's still confusing - simply because there are so many settings, if I go to Share/Personal Computer I'm then presented with a whole load of settings
    NTSC Flash Video
    MPEG
    DVAVI
    Windows Media
    QuickTime
    and under each of those is a lot more advanced settings?
    I'm guessing I wouldn't use flash or quicktime, so which of the others would I use and what are the advanced settings to use as I can't find anything that is .wmv or .mov
    What I've done with other videos that I've exported from PrE as dvavi is then to put it through Windows Movie Maker, Publish Movie, This Computer, then put the settings to Windows Media DVD Quality (PAL) (3.0 Mps) - this seemed to be the only setting that reduced the file size considerably but still had good quality, but it's still about twice the original file size?
    This all seems long winded to me, open original file, convert original file, output another file, then output the file again in something else which then results in loss of quality and a larger file than the original? I'm ending up with lots of files, was hoping just to edit in Premiere then export/publish that edited clip and that would be it, then upload to the net.
    Is it not possible to just edit my original footage and save it, just like you would with something like a word document, should I be using something else and not Premiere?
    Thanks.

  • Export to Quicktime HD 1080i fails from timeline in Premiere Pro CC

    I have AVCHD files in my timeline and need to export Quicktime HD 1080i for a client.  From the export settings, I choose Quicktime with the preset for HD 1080i and click on OK.  The dialog box export with the progression bar just hangs there.  Eventually, I force close Premiere Pro and Premiere Pro will not start again until I restart the computer.  What gives?

    Here is more information: I use Premiere PRo CC 7 and the taped based media in the bins are from a Canon HV30 taped based catured to PP directly in a MPEG format. I have already used some edits from this media as well as my captures from digital, which isnt causing any problems. When I mark the taped based media in the source window and attempt to drag it into the timeline the hand gets a circle and slash line on it and will not let me place it into the timeline. Yet I can still load my digital stuff into the timeline and edit normally. I need some footaghe from the tapes but cannot get it into the timeline from the source monitor even after updating, shutting down and reopening. No avail still when trying to drag the hand with the circle slash still exist not allowing it into the timeline. Previous footage on the timeline works no problem. This started yesterday.
