Can compressor output a 720x480 FCP Apple ProRes422 to MPEG2 with sqr. PAR?

I am trying to get compressor to encode a 720x480 FCP export that is AppleProRes422, and I would like to know if it's possible to get compressor to encode it to an MPEG-2 with SQUARE pixels... This option is grayed out, and that's all I am after. I know why I am getting my MPEG-2 to playback 640x480, however I need it to play back at 720x480 for a specific playback device. Any help here would be great! Thanks...
Or,
Can anyone help me find the best way to mux an M2V and an AC3, AIFF, or WAV?
I Have already tried MPEG Streamclip, and I can only get an MPEG-2 with MP2 audio, but the audio level drops quite a bit. I'd like to avoid that.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Pretty sure that if you take your file and pop it in to Compressor using the DVD setting with NTSC setting it encodes to to 720x480, as the vision you are supplying it is from the same pixel dimensions without distortion, it will play back on your specific device without distortion. The distortion settings are relevant to your source material and the standard playback device.
So the Pixel Aspect is used by the play back device to display the vision correctly.
I just tried it and it works, it all is dependant on your playback device displaying the pixels as square, in my test I could see that MPEG Streamclip and VLC had the file as 720x480 though they displayed it as 4x3.

Can we output a 'fixed-layout' (Apple's variety), Enhanced EPUB?

This is (of course), not a true 'EPUB', but instead Apple's bastardization of the format to allow 'enhanced' illustrated books to be sold in their bookstore.
But InDesign can produce some terrific interactive output for regular 'flowing' EPUBS for iBookstore/iPads like the work Terry White has demo'd.
Between the use of Articles for maintaining formatting, and the overlay panel I have to imagine one could produce a nice title with IND that would adhere to Apple's standard, but I've found no reference to it.
Any help or direction would be greatly appreciated.
best,
B.

Thanks for the reply Bob. Yeah, I think I'm confused. As I read about DPS it seems I'm not alone in being confused. Part service, part software, expensive, yet touted to the entire digital publishing communit as if it were an option for all, budget notwithstanding.
So to clear things up, here's what I thought/think/hope... and maybe someone can illuminate where I'm right/wrong/close...
On the topic of using InDesign for (Apple's Variety) of EPUB creation specifically for the iBookstore:
     - I can create an EUB layout in Indesign, with full page (bleed), images, and add text frames on top of the background.
     - I can embed fonts (as long as I have the rights), into the doc.
     - This type of layout will not be reflowable, but is zoomable.
     - (I though) I could include simple HTML5 animation for elements such as a buttun to trigger 'Read Along' type function. Maybe simple object translation
        or opacity changes.
     - To make this work as a 'Fixed Layout' I would need to utilize the techniques offered in Liz Castro's miniguide on FIxed Layout on the extracted EPUB
        once it was generated by INDe.
     - At this point hopefully... it would pass muster for upload via itunes Producer.
On the topic of DPS: (these are more questions than understandings. But clearly I've missed a few salient points)
     - DPS is not for creating Illustrated books, 'fixed layout books' or picture books (EPUBs), that I can then upload and sell though my own iTunes
       Developer account.
     - DPS seems to be for larger publishing concerns (aka companies with plenty of $$$), that are creating digital magazines. I'm not sure how the final
       product is accessed. if it is a EPUB file or if the product is sold through DPS.
I'm sure there is more that I'm leaving out, but hopefullly some helpful input on these notions will help others and myself wrangle the task of producing iBookstore ready product with Indesign and potentially, DPS.
thanks,
B.

My iTunes library is on a PC, includes items purchases from Apple but a lot that are not. Can I sync the entire library (Apple purchases and others) with my iPAD and how?

My itunes library is on my PC. It has Apple purchased and other music. Can I sync everything with my iPAD and how? I'm having difficulties getting the "non-Apple" music sync'd.

You should be able to sync them from your computer's iTunes to your iPad and/or iPhone. Connect your iPad or iPhone to your computer and select it on the left-hand sidebar of your computer's iTunes (you can enable the sidebar via control-S on a PC), and then use the Music tab on the right-hand side of the iTunes to select and sync the music that you want in the iPad/iPhone's Music app

How can I output a digital value (0 or 1) directly with a VI on the RTSI-bus?

The Device is a PCI-MIO-16XE10.
Thanks.

The RTSI bus is designed for sharing timing and control signals between boards. By timing and control we mean clock signals, digital triggers, etc. RTSI is not meant to pass I/O signals, even digital I/O signals. Thus, it is not possible to connect one of the digital I/O lines on your board to a RTSI line. A way to accomplish what you would like to do might be to toggle GPCTR0's Output and connect that signal to the RTSI bus. You would do this by configuring the counter to perform event counting and counting down from a specified number of pulses on the source pin and configuring the counter's output to toggle on terminal count. You could also configure the counter to perform pulse train generation or single pulse generation. To connect the output to the RTSI bus, yo
u will need to call the Route Signal VI from the DAQ Calibration & Configuration Function Pallette with Signal Name set to RTSIn and Signal Source set to GPCTR0 Output.

Erin

Can Compressor be a replacement for iDVD?

As you may know, Apple has (temporarily?) discontinued iDVD.
So, Can Compressor replace iDVD? Could one use iMovie 06 with compressor?
I've had a few friends switch to Windows for their new computer purposes because they claim that Apple had no way to burn a video DVD. I'm trying to keep these people in the Apple camp.

Sorry to say there doesn't seem to be anything temporary about Apple's attitude toward DVDs. The only (relatively) bright spot I see is that one can still buy the boxed edition of iLIfe, which includes iDVD. But I haven't seen anything that suggests they'll continue to develop either iDVD or DVDSP.
Also hard to imagine they'll build real authoring capabilities to Compressor; they genuinely seem philosophically opposed to the physical disk concept. For example, in the new version of Compressor, they eliminated nearly all the DVD presets that were in 3.5. Of course, it's still possible to make your own custom preset and/or to burn a simple DVD (or Blu-Ray) directly from Compressor (or FCX).
Perhaps more third party solutions (other than Toast and Encore) will surface in time.

How can i find out which apple ids are associated with my ipad

When I sync my iPad I get the message that some songs cannot be updated because only 5 Apple IDs can be associated with an iPad. I am aware of three that we use in my family - mine and my two sons. How can I find out what other Apple IDs are associated with my iPad?

Can i get an answer on Apple/Apogee xpress port problem

Can someone answer the question about Apple having a issue with the new designed xpress port? Is there a fix being worked on ? can someone answer this question or direct me to someone that can answer this question? Apogee has no result? Anyone?

Is there something that leads you to believe Apple isn't using an industry-standard ExpressCard 34 port? Or that the ExpressCard 34 port in the unibody MBPs isn't exactly like the ones in earlier MBPs? If so, please tell us what the evidence is.
You are, as Dave has suggested, talking about a highly specialized piece of hardware (the Apogee unit) that is probably used by far less than 1/10 of 1% of all unibody MBP owners. The chances that any randomly selected Apple tech support rep will ever have talked about an Apogee unit with anyone are very close to zero.
Does Apogee have user forums? If so, that's where you're most likely to find other people who use both Apogee products and Macs. A small percentage of those users may have unibody MBPs and be in a position to help you determine whether there's a problem with your machine, a problem with the Apogee product, or a problem with Apple's implementation of the ExpressCard 34 standard.
In the meantime, take your MBP to an Apple Store genius bar and ask them to test your ExpressCard slot with any ExpressCard devices that they have on hand. If your slot works OK with other devices, at least you'll have eliminated a defective slot as a possible cause of your troubles. Then try creating a new user account on your computer and see whether the Apogee device works properly when you're logged into the new account. If it does, you'll know there is something in the configuration of your everyday user account that's preventing the Apogee unit from working. If it doesn't work in the new user account, you'll know there is something in either the hardware or the basic OS installation that isn't compatible with the Apogee unit. In the latter case, I recommend installing an absolutely stock OS from your original MBP installer discs onto a bootable external hard drive, starting the MBP up from that drive, and then seeing whether the Apogee unit works properly.
...I'm not the only person with this problem most people have sold there Apogee mobile Symphony system already because of not working and I'm the edge to do the same.
If any of these people have done any controlled testing or orderly troubleshooting of the kind I've suggested above, they should be able to advise you of the results. If they've all thrown their hands up and sold their Apogee units without having done any orderly troubleshooting, they won't have anything useful or credible to tell you or Apogee, and talking to them will be a waste of time. You need to work with people who are trying to track down the problem systematically. If no one at Apogee seems to be trying to do that, and the problem has been genuinely proven to be widespread (not just limited to a few instances), then getting rid of the Apogee box is probably a good idea: its makers aren't supporting it as they should.

Aren't FCPX and Compressor supposed to be able to export Apple ProRes 422 LT? I just bought FCPX and Compressor and there seems to be no way to transcode HDV clips to Apple ProRes422 LT. Before buying I read LACUG tutorial by R Taylor that says it can.

Tom is right. Codecs are shared software system-wide ("Core Video"). If you cannot find the option with any software (such as MPEG Streamclip), you won't find it in Compressor or FCPX either. The Quicktime ProRes codecs is part of the FCP menu > "Download Additional Content" you need to make after install FCPX (or Compressor.) These "pro video" codecs are part of all "ProApp" licenses for video related software from Apple (QT7Pro, Motion, Compressor, Final Cut, etc....) [you can also download them here: http://support.apple.com/kb/dl1396]
Most articles/tutorials you read by "long time" users are apt to assume the reader has been working with pro-video on Macs since the days of disk installs (like they have). In those days, the installation of those codecs wasn't even really an option (well, it was if you did a custom install - but who *didn't* install all available codecs??), it was automatically installed with the main software. Since the "App Store" venue... things have changed somewhat.

How do I adjust bitrate when outputting from AE -Apple ProRes422?

Hi -
I'm delivering a 30 second spot to Comcast.
Their spec sheet names Apple ProRes422 for compression - and I found that with no problem in AE (5.5).
They also request interlace/bottom first - which I also found in the settings.
Lastly (in an ftp spec sheet) they require bitrate between 10 and 15 Mbs - this I cannot find in AE output module. In fact, it seems that if I use Apple ProRes422, then the bitrate is not selectable. If I use H264 I can adjust the bitrate.
How can I adjust the bitrate to meet their specs? Does ProRes422 equal the correct, requested bitrate by default?
TIA your input.
jl

I rendered out a version with Apple ProRes422 Proxy and the quality was extremely low... So last night, out of frustration... endered out an H264 version, and uploaded it.... If the output doesn't pass muster I'm sure I'll hear about it. Stay tuned.
You'll probably hear about it. These folks apparently want the ProRes 422 codec, not the H.264 codec. You have to understand that ProRes codecs come in a variety of flavors. In decreasing order of quality they are:
ProRes 4444
ProRes HQ
ProRes 422
ProRes LT
Prores Proxy
If the H.264 file slips through, write back. We'll stay tuned.

FCP to Compressor (can I still work in FCP will export is happening)?

This may be a dumb question. Usually I export from FCP to a master ProRes, THEN bring the ProRes into Compressor to make various formats. And I know I can continue working in FCP while this is happening.
I want to short circuit that process on this job, go straight out of FCP to Compressor. Which works fine. I'm wondering, once I've started the batch process in Compressor, can I be working with FCP while it is exporting THROUGH Compressor?
Or am I going to crash the whole process?
All ears,
Ben

Please excuse typo in question:
FCP to Compressor (can I still work in FCP WHILE export is happening)?
S'cuse me.

Exporting in Compressor VS. exporting in FCP

Hey guys,
I've noticed that when I send a sequence for exporting through compressor it normally takes almost as 10 times longer for it to export compared to when I export directly in FCP. Why is it doing that and what can I do to make compressor export as fast as FCP or at least faster than how it is right now? I installed 8GB or ram on my iMac because I thought that would help but I guess not.
Thanks

Exporting using the Export QuickTime Movie command creates a clip using the settings selected and the render files generated by FCP. From a fully rendered timeline, even a self-contained movie can be output rather quickly.
Exporting using the Export Using Compressor command causes FCP to disregard the render files and re-render every frame in the timeline using the source footage and all applicable effects and filters. This can under some circumstances create a higher quality clip for Compressor to work with. The downside is that it takes a great deal of time and does not support all third-party filters. Another issue is that high quality .mov file is output for "insurance", so if Compressor fails or if you need to create another version of the timeline, you have to go back to the timeline and export again.
Many editors use a workflow that includes an Export QuickTime Movie to create the "insurance" clip, then load it to Compressor for whatever versions if the clip are needed (for example, MPEG-2 for DVD and H.264 for web distribution.) I have no data, but most editors feel that this workflow is substantially faster and involves less risk. The final upside is that FCP is not tied up for extended periods doing the export.

How can I open FCP 7 projects in FCPX with Yosemite?

I can no longer get FCP7 to open than thus cannot export an XML file from FCP 7 to then use the 7 to X app. Is there any other way to open old projects in FCPX? I uninstalled 7 and now cannot re-install it either, so much for THAT solving the issue!

Unless you know someone with FCP7 who can open your project (they don't need the project media to do this) and make an XML for you to convert via 7 to X, then your best bet is to get FCP7 reinstalled on your computer.
First, read this:
Final Cut Pro X, Motion 5, Compressor 4: Installation best practices - Apple Support
Look for the topic "Installing Final Cut Studio (2009) applications when Final Cut Pro X, Motion 5, or Compressor 4 from the Mac App Store are already installed", about 3/4 of the way down the page.
If the FCS discs won't let you re-install FCP7 (it is grayed out as an option) because it thinks FCP7 is already installed, then download FCS Remover from Digital Rebellion (free) to remove the legacy traces of the installation -

FILM OUTPUT FINAL crashes FCP

After two 31 hour sessions outputting my final 2hours movie, it has crashed with only two hours left.
So I have a sequence which is my final movie of 2hours. Im exporting quicktime with Uncompressed 10bit NTSC. vs choosing the dv compression, I was trying to get an uncompressed final to have as final. Can someone please check my crash log and tell me what would be causing this? Im at wits end trying to fiqure out why in the last two hours it would crash. I starting exporting snippets from the last part to see if I can find the area where its crashing. Does Final Cut export from begaining to end or does it export backwards?
To clarify I choose Export as quicktime, instead of using current settings Im choosing Uncompressed 10bit NTSC just to get the highest resolution. I guess I could try the current settings but I fear there is a resolution loss. If anyone can look over my crash file and or give me some support for exporting a 2hour film, my final goal is to encode as Mpeg2 for DVD. So would love some support

Rather than export the entire two hours, try exporting into segments. This has worked for me in what sounds like the same situation.
For example:
1. In your Timeline window mark an In at the beginning and an Out one frame before the tenth minute (if you're using drop frame time code at a 30 fps base, this would be 1:09:59;29).
2. Chose File > Export > QuickTime Movie; Current Settings, Make movie Self-Contained.
If this works, continue to the next step.
3. In your Timeline window, mark an In at the first frame of the tenth minute and an Out at the frame before the twentieth minute.
4. Chose File > Export > QuickTime Movie; Current Settings, Make movie Self-Contained.
If this works, repeat in ten minute segments until you have enough segments to complete the duration of your Timeline.
You might be able to export in fifteen or twenty minute segments rather than every ten minutes. Or, you might have to try five minute segments.
As you export, name the files such that the order is obvious (like "segment 01", "segment 02", etc.).
Once you have each segment, turn them into either a referencing movie or a self-contained movie (recommended in this case) which can then serve as your edited master. I'd import them into a new project file to do this.
This should work if it's just something going on within FCP. However, there is always the chance that it's a source file that isn't getting in the way with editing but is getting in the way with exporting. With the approach outlined above, you'll be able to isolate where it is in your Timeline if that's the case.
Another thing worth mentioning is that I dealt with this same issue from FCP 4.5, 5 and 6 for a documentary project (www.thehoopinglife.com, if you have time to check it out). Exporting a 90 minute cut always had to be done in segments until upgrading to version FCP 7.
"Current Settings" is the way to go. DV-NTSC will hold up well enough.
Plan B: if your Sequence will play from start to finish in the Timeline (and that's a big "IF"), you could record to a DV deck or camcorder and then recapture that.

If I imported proxy media to edit in fcpx, can I export a hight resolution (apple pro res 422 (hq)) version of the project ?

If I imported proxy media to edit in fcpx, can I export a hight resolution (apple pro res 422 (hq)) version of the project ?

OK, let me re-answer here. You HAVE to have either original or optimized media, you can not have Proxy only media, when using FCPX's inport options. You will switch between which FCPX is using; in 10.1 via the Canvas menu option called "Media", or in 10.0.9 and earily via the Preference's "Playback" settings.
When set to Proxy, FCPX only references that medai, which is 1/4 resolution, and not full quality. When set to Original Or Optimized, you'll get full resolution output, as FCPX is not referencing those files.
The only way to have Proxy only media is to convert it in Compressor and then import that. And that would just be a huge mistake.

How can I output up to 7 tracks simultaneously?

Hello esteemed GB community.
I have to create a little effect for an upcoming party. For this I need to output the following:
- at least 4 separate audio channels (stereo front and stereo rear)
- one mono combination of these four tracks (to drive a Light organ gizmo - makes the light flicker with the audio)
- and finally one separate track on which I will put pulses to trigger a relay for a fog machine.
Setting up these tracks in GB should be fairly straigth forward (although my GB experience is very limited I've done a fair amount of audio mixing in FCP - which I imagine is similar) but my question is, how can I output all these tracks so I can feed them to their respective recipients? This means to two stereo setups for audio (or would it be easier to do 5.1 Dolby - $$$ ?) and then to the light organ and to the relay trigger for the fogger.
I did a search for multitrack but most answers I found dealt mainly with input, not output. I imagine this will require some kinid of an external box, right?
Budget for this box is very limited, hopefully less than $200. Quality does not have to be very high although a good bass response will be important for the effect.
Thank you very much for any help.

Thanks for your help, HT. Would Logic be a better choice than ProTools LE for this? (I know next to nothing about them I must confess...)
I was just thinking, in the worst case scenario, I could just create the 6 audio tracks in GB, then output three stereo mp3 files (stereo front, stereo rear, 2 control tracks), dump each on a separate cheap mp3 player and get a controller that can remote start all of them at the same time...
Does anyone know of such a cheap mp3 player that can be remote started via a wire connection to a relay? Is there another forum that deals with this kind of issue?
Thanks again.
Bo

Can compressor output a 720x480 FCP Apple ProRes422 to MPEG2 with sqr. PAR?
