Can FCP 5 export mpg 2 video?

I don't see the setting in FCP 5 and the option in Compressor is greyed out.
Thanks,
Chas

Click the name of your source material in Compressor's Source Media column or click the "Click the pop-up to apply a setting" button in the Setting column.
I don't see a "Click the pop-up to apply a setting" button.
Also, the mpeg 2 file extention is .m2v. I need just .mpg.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Chas

  • Can FCP-X send interlaced SD-video to iDVD ?

    Hi all FCP-X users - Please enlighten me.
    Can FCP-X send interlaced SD-video to iDVD ?
    Or is it like iMovie'08 - 11 ?
    Yours archeological - Bengt W

    So this will result in NO Loss when exporting out to iDVD as with FinalCut previous versions and iMovie up to HD6.
    Nothing like iMovie'08 to 11 will occure ?
    Just to be sure and to be able to give proper answers at forum/a.
    Yours very thankful and admiring Bengt W

  • Can FCP X export .m4v directly?

    Can FCP X export .m4v directly without usig Compressor?

    Looks like .m4v to me.
    iPad is the same. Do not use the Mac & PC compatible option. That makes .mp4 for PC compatibility.

  • FCP Freezes When Exporting to Flash Video (FLV)

    Final Cut Pro 7.0.2 freezes when exporting to Flash Video (FLV). The resulting FLV file contains only a few seconds of the exported video. A 2009 Apple Support notice offers this re. FCP 6 and CS3 Flash Video Encoder...

    Final Cut Pro: May quit unexpectedly when exporting to Flash
    Last Modified: February 13, 2009
    Article: TS2593
    Symptoms
    Final Cut Pro may quit unexpectedly when you export using QuickTime Conversion if you choose Flash Video (FLV) from the Format menu.
    Products Affected
    Final Cut Pro 6.x, Adobe Creative Suite 3 Flash Video Encoder
    Resolution
    This can happen if you use the Adobe Creative Suite 3 Flash Video Encoder and Final Cut Pro together. This issue does not occur with the Flash Video Encoder in Adobe Creative Suite 4. To work around the issue:
    Choose File > Export > QuickTime Movie.
    Be sure to enable Make Movie Self-Contained.
    Open the exported movie in QuickTime Player.
    Export the movie to Flash from QuickTime Player.
    ===
    I just installed CS5, so I would think I shouldn't be bothered with an older, problematic Flash Video Encoder. I don't think I should have to convert an MOV file to an FLV file using QuickTime Reader or anything else. Why doesn't it export correctly out of FCPro 7.0.2?

    oh well.

  • How can I properly export video w/ bars to Rec709 (16-235 in 8-bit) from Premiere's RGB (0-255)?

    I have hit some real frustrations in working with Premiere to meet broadcast Rec709 standards for DVD & Blu-Ray. Avid Symphony works in a Rec709 space and clearly operates with its video signal from 16-235 (which matches IRE 7.5 to 100), but Premiere doesn't seem to have this understanding in its programming and engineering. Here are my issues:
    1) I can't manually enter in the digital values in the RGB Curve tool's points. Why would Premiere's engineers lock this basic feature out? It's in Photoshop.
    2) I can't properly export Premiere's color bars. In order to export to Rec709 standards, to get around issue #1, I hack into the RGB Curves preset XML file to lift the Master Curve's point 1 from 0 to 16 and set the final white point from 255 to 235. If I use Premiere's bars, on the waveform, I can see the sub-black values, but when I lift the blacks with the curves preset, it clips all sub-black values upon export. WHY?! To get around this problem, I import bars generated by a camera (for example, by a Sony EX-350, i.e. XDCAM footage). All of this wouldn't be an issue if there were an export function that specifies exporting to rec709's 16-235 values instead of 0-255, as Avid does.
    3) Particularly, the Waveform scope lies to me. The 7.5 IRE setup button does NOTHING for me, it's just a preview option that causes more confusion than clarity. Does Premiere map 0 out of 0-255 as 0 IRE or 7.5 IRE? I think it does the former and just uses that setup button to make you think that it's at 7.5. so if you do set it to 7.5, how then do you export it to match that option? Also, why can't the waveform scope have multiple options for the units - not just IRE, but also digital values (8-bit, 10-bit, linearized, etc.)?!
    4) Speaking of importing the bars and footage. To continue the example of the Sony EX-350 - it imports the bars automatically by putting the black values at 0 IRE, not 7.5 IRE.
    If Adobe wants industry professionals to take Premiere seriously, it needs to open up these options and clearly present what happens to tonal values in the image. It's very frustrating to figure out all of these problems and create cockamamy work-arounds.

    Steve,
    Thanks for your reply! However, I hope you don't take my response the wrong way, but, with no meaning of disrespect to you personally, the notion that curves are the wrong tool for numeric adjustments extremely infuriates me and displays a real lack of understanding of why a colorist or cinematographer such as myself would want to use curves in the first place.
    First, any LUT generation program or coloring program, such as Apple Color, gives complete access to numerical control to give precise, repeatable changes that you cannot get with the drag of a mouse. Photoshop, Avid Symphony, etc. all have curves tools with the ability to manually enter points.
    Second, on a user level, there should be no wrong tool for numeric adjustments, especially curves - they are the most precise means to obtain a specific contrast response. Levels or RGB corrector will only give gamma, pedestal, and gain operations, but curves gives every possible shape of a contrast response in between. If I wanted to create a very specific S-curve, I must use the curves tool to do so.
    Third, the question at hand is not Premiere Pro's ability to process natively in Rec709 with signal from 16-235 - Premiere's native ability to process all types of video input is the sole reason why I've switched to it as a platform. 'Sub-black values are not necessarily clamped'?! How then can I export a TIFF, for example, of Premiere's bars, with the sub-black values left intact? How do I even access these sub-black values, when all footage clips below 0 IRE? The primary question is, how does Premiere handle and export these IRE values with respect to digital values, whether they are 8-bit, 10-bit, 12-bit, etc.?
    Adobe's video workflow lacks a concise, cohesive FAQ or explanation of its numerical signal chain. At least, I have missed it and can't find it anywhere. If I want to properly color grade footage with a proper final output in mind, I need to know my end goals to take the proper intermediary steps.

    The songs on my iPod Video 5th Gen now, were at one time on my computer, but have since been erased. Why can't I export the songs from my iPod back on to my computer? I have this same problem with my other devices (iPad 3rd Gen and iPod Nano 6th Gen). I am really frustrated now, because it seems as if I have to start all over again. This will be a royal pain in the butt! I don't understand why Apple makes this so hard and impossible to do this. Please help, anybody!!

  • Please help. When exporting a 720p video using Quicktime Conversion in FCP it saves some extra temporary files to my computer. The file is called ICMMultiPassStorage. This file gets so large that eventually the program and exporting process crashes.

    Please help. When exporting a 720p video using Quicktime Conversion in FCP it saves some extra temporary files to my computer. The temporary file it saves is called ICMMultiPassStorage. This file gets so large that eventually the program and exporting process crashes. I have been able to locate the file using GrandPerspective and close out of FCP to delete it. But when I try exporting the movie again it creates the ICMMultiPassStorage file again. I have made sure my scratch disks are set to my external hard drive so I know that isn't the issue. How do I fix this problem so these temporary files are not being stored on my internal hard drive instead of my external?Thanks!

    Try exporting the timeline "using current settings" via Make QuickTime Movie, then submit that clip to Compressor for the transcode. This should be faster and less painful.

  • Exporting 7 min. video from Aperture and received error.  How can I get the original back?

    I uploaded a video from my iphone 5 into Aperture and then I tried to export it to my desktop.  After I clicked on Export, it attempted to export for a while but then gave me an error message saying that 0 of 1 videos was exported and it couldn't export.  Now it shows the video in the album in Aperture, but it won't play and I can't do anything with it.  I have tried to recall the original but it says there is no original and it says there are no referenced files when I try to reference the files.  The clip also shows an arrow pointing to the right with a yellow triangle by it.  This is located in the bottom right of the image, right next to the video icon.  My concern is that I tried to export the original.  Any ideas on how I can fix this and get the video back?

    The clip also shows an arrow pointing to the right with a yellow triangle by it.  This is located in the bottom right of the image, right next to the video icon.
    Is that the badge you are seeing? Then Aperture has lost the connection to the original video file.
    Now it shows the video in the album in Aperture, but it won't play and I can't do anything with it.  I have tried to recall the original but it says there is no original and it says there are no referenced files when I try to reference the files. 
    You tried to reconenct and locate the referenced file? Then you probably imported the video as "Managed" and then the commands for referenced files do not work.
    Look directly into your Aperture library package, if the video is still there:
    Select the Aperture Library in the Finder and ctrl-click(or right click) it.
    Then select "Show Package Contents" from the pop-up.
    In the Finder window that opens scroll down to the "Masters" folder and open its subfolder "2013" and then go to the month and day, when you imported your video. Do you see your video there, or any imports at all?
    If you see the video in your library package, copy it to the Desktop, ad check, if you camn play it.
    What do you see?
    Regards

  • I can't import HD video from Samsung OIS Duo into FCP. However, I can see the video with QT. In FCP, I just see a red bad with a yellow triangle (warning). Can someone help me. The video are Full HD 1080/60i?

    I can't import my HD videos (MP4) from my Samsung OIS Duo into FCP.
    However, I can see the video with QuickTime.
    In FCP, I just see a red box with a yellow triangle at the center(warning). Can someone help me. The video are Full HD 1080/60i.
    I also try converting from MP4 to DV. Cannot import the .DV either.
    Can someone help me?

    Could it be the case that you have "proxy media" selected in the preferences (under Final Cut Pro -> Preferences, click on "Playback" and see which is selected, proxy or optimized), BUT you are not creating proxy media when importing?
    If that is the case, either
      - switch to "original/optimized media",
    or
      - create the proxy media (control-click the clip(s) in the event browser, choose "Transcode media" e check the box for "create proxy media").

  • Can you send/export a still frame from an FCP sequence?

    Can you send/export a still frame from FCP as a picture to the desktop? Doesn't matter if it is a .jpeg, .tiff, . bitmap

    serach the forum for any of the hundreds of posts detailing this process -
    my personal favorite is shift-N, apple-9, type name, drag to bin, batch export.
    The best thing about the batch export queue is you can set up a batch with the file format and destination folder and then keep adding new clips/stills to export.
    Hope this helps -

    Re AppleMan 1958 excellent user tip: How can I import a homemade DVD into iMovie for editing? -
    I've followed instructions with success until  "You can then FILE/EXPORT USING QUICKTIME and choose Apple Intermediate Codec as your video codec. "  How do I do that?
    I installed MGEG Streamclip 193b8 and used their utility to install quicktimempeg2 and got a message stating it was successfully installed.  (I'm on latest Maverick 10.9.2 on iMac)  Then I dragged the VIDEO_TS file from my home DVD into the streamclip app.  It asked which of 4 files to use, and I selected the first one.  Streamclip played the video with the sound.  so far so good. but now I cannot figure how to use quicktime player 10.3 to export this vob file out of streamclip.

    Thank you for your quick reply and for clearing up my confusion.  I'm exporting the first section now.  I choose the smallest size, 3x4 but I'd prefer to go higher as this DVD was originally a VHS home movie.  I'm wondering if after three conversions (VHS,->DVD->MPEG) the resolution will be so poor as to not support a larger size frame?  If it can, what size should I select when I export?

    Are you running the 9.0.1 Update of the program and on what computer operating system is it running?
    Is your video card/graphics card driver up to date according to the manufacturer of the card?
    Is your computer optimized, including maintenance of pile ups of preview files, conformed audio files, and conformed video files?
    Do you have the latest version of QuickTime installed on your computer with Premiere Elements 9.0/9.0.1?
    What are your project settings and what are the properties of your source media? When you say that "used to be able to export...." is that on the same computer, same brand/model/settings for the camera recording the video now in use, same Premiere Elements 9.0/9.0.1?
    Where player are you using for the playback of these exports?
    Please give us more details on the size of the projects (then and now) as well as details of the customized export settings in your Share/Computer/ route. Premiere Elements 9.0/9.0.1 is only a 32 bit application running in 32 bit or 64 bit system. Not sure if computer resources might be taxed more so now than before.

  • FCP cant export any video

    Hi,
    I have been dealing with editing a feature film for some months now. I've been able to easily export the sequence until now. I have tried a few things. I exported a self-contained quicktime movie, I used compressor in FCP to export it that way and none work. I even erased my hard drive, and installed all the software again. With no luck. I use to have an aja kona LSe card connected to an external monitor, but that stopped working about a week ago. When the problems started happening. I am trying to play with that and see if I can get it to work again, but no luck. When the project is open now FCP in general has become very slow. My settings now for FCP are the standard DV-NTSC anamorphic set-up. Any help would be much appreciated thanks.

    You likely have some media that's corrupt and that is what is stopping the export. The LHe card is another thing altogether.... you might call AJA about that. Try moving your media to another folder on the same hard drive, then open the project and reconnect the media files a few at a time until you see a crash or warning, or something that lets you know that the media needs recapturing. If this fails to fix you up, I'd suggest a clean erase and install of OS X, then FCS on top of that on a fresh startup disk. If you've not done this in a while, it's likely time anyway to do it.

  • Can I export both the Video and Audio from Soundtrack Pro? or just audio?

    I opened a video in STP and added some effects to the audio. But I do not see any video export options??? Can I only export the audio??? How do I add the New audio to the final video???

    Thanks for that Soundaround. I tried to use the encoder option as well, down to an .mp4 file, but the video did not play properly. The source material is HD 1080i .mov and the frame rate was default, set to 100% of original.
    Do you know Why this is? I also tried the same conversion in cocktail and got the same results. Can I only compress down to an HD .mp4? I want to retain normal sync and smooth playback?
