Compressor in a Funk

Hello,
I'm exporting quick time self contained movie 24p from Canon HV20. Then I add file to compressor for pulldown removal and hit submit - nothing happens. No progress on the little grey progress bar what so ever. No matter how long I wait, nothing happens.
I haven't had any problems with compressor until I started storing my movies on my external hard drive ( G Raid2, 1TB ). Can somebody please pull me out of the mud. Everytime I think I've got it figured out I don't.
thank you all very much,
Trey

What are the pro alternatives to Compressor?

I've been compressing a lot of material recently, mostly shot on DVCPRO HD and edited on FCP. What's been happening is that some - but surprisingly not all dissolves - are breaking up into pixels or rather blocks of pixels. The problem, as I've recently found out, has been documented here so I won't waste anyone's time agonizing over it. I'll just say that using Compression Master, Sorenson Squeeze and bitVice produced artifacts free files right off the bat.
What's infuriating about the Compressor is that every time I try to test a short piece from the middle of the sequence, it compresses fine but then when the whole 20 min sequence is compressed the problem comes back.
I've tried CBR, closed GOP, IP structure etc as suggested in one of the posts and it did get rid of the pixelation but I'm still not happy with the results. The picture looks a bit soft and washed out. Shockingly comparable to a well compressed random, internet downloaded DivX file that I can play on the same player. Is it the Compressor, DVDSP or the true nature of the DVCPRO HD format showing its ugly face?
What are the professional MPEG encoders that could save me all that headache? I'd rather pay good money and finally get it done right than spend my time beta testing software that is clearly not ready for the prime time.

Never had problems whit Apple Mail. Till I updated to Maverick.
First problam was Gmail after updating to Mavericks, Apple mail went to download all my old mail's over 6800. Just delleted my Gmail account form the list to stop it.
Second issuu memory.
First dit not now what was te problem till I found out that Apple Maill took over al my memory. Try differened tip and trick of the Apple Forums. This one works the best. Other users had the same problem after Mavericks.
I restore my Accounts.plist form before the Maverick update.

Compressor 2 with FCP 5.1 workflow

I've been reading about using Compressor 2 with FCP 5.1 and have been a bit surprised by some of the following suggestions:
These are from Larry Jordan's website:
"Compressor 2 has problems with both motion estimation and 2-pass VBR. If you are using Compressor 2 make sure to select 1-pass VBR Better and set Motion Estimate to Better. Using Best settings creates very poor video.
There is a lot of talk on the Apple discussion site that 2 pass VBR gives artifacts, especially on transitions and is generally to be avoided.
To compress the file in Compressor, DON'T use "Export to Compressor" in FCP -- it doesn't work reliably. Instead, open Compressor, then drag the file into Compressor and adjust settings.
In their effort to tackle the problem of overshooting data-rates in C1, Apple seems to have ruined the quality of 2-pass VBR encoding to some degree. I've seen quite a few cases now where 2-pass VBR doesn't look as good as the simple 1-pass.
The new version of Compressor has technology in it that is not duplicated using QuickTime conversion.
I have never been comfortable with exporting using QuickTime Conversion. For one thing, it automatically down-samples your movie to 8-bit. For another, it will not be as good a quality as Sorenson Squeeze for the web, or Compressor for DVD. Third, Apple removed the MPEG-2 compression option with the release of QuickTime 7. Finally, the codecs it contains, while adequate for home use, are not up to professional standards either in terms of file size or image quality."
So, from what I gathered from Larry's website...
Use VBR 1 pass instead of VBR 2 pass for best quality
Use Motion Estimate Better instead of Best
Compressor offers better quality compression than Export>Quicktime Conversion
Don't use Export>For Compressor from FCP, instead export a FCP reference file from Export>Quicktime and use that in Compressor.
What do you think?
Thanks,
Richard

Well, different "experts" with slightly different views.
This from hanumang's response to Jerry Hofmann over in the FCP discussion forum:
FCP unrendered to Compressor 2?
hanumang, have you seen a quality difference using the compressor method?
Jerry
In my experience, yes, there is most definitely a difference in quality.
For sake of completeness, when it comes to exporting for DVDSP, this is how I'd break it down:
File > Export > Using Compressor on unrendered timelines in FCP. The best way to do things with FCP & Compressor - especially true if (as mentioned) you're working in some compressed format like DV and doing lots of filters, motion effect and compositing within FCP. In my experience, color correction comes out much cleaner on DV-sourced footage.
On a 1-10 scale, with 10 being the best that Compressor outputs, this method is a 10
File > Export > Using Compressor on rendered timelines in FCP. While inferior to #1, this tends to work better on high-motion footage that needs to be encoded at a low bit rate (which I'd consider 5 Mbps or lower) than #3 because of the frame-by-frame processing. Also, transitions tend to come out better (again, at lower bit rates).
I'd rate this method a 7 out of 10
File > Export > QuickTime Movie with DVD Studio Pro Markers, then import into Compressor 2. While this rates at the bottom, in many cases it's hard to distinguish the output from #2 & #3 unless you're encoding at a 5 Mbps or lower bit rate
I'd rate this a 6 out of 10
In terms of encoding times, if #3 is my baseline, #2 takes about 2-3x as long. #1 takes about 4-5x as long as #3 for me (depending on the level of complexity).

Creating a Disk Image from Compressor Fails

Hpefully some one can help me out here.
Here's whats going on and I've tried this on 2 different systems (iMac 24 inch OSX 10.9.4,Nvidia GeForce GT750M 1 GB, 3.1 Ghz i7 Processor 1 TB Fusion Drive, 16 gigs of ram & a iMac 27 Inch OSX 10.9.4 Nvidia GeForce GTX780M 4GB, 2.5 Quad-Core i7, 16 gigs of ram 1 TB Fusion Drive, both have the USB Super Drive from Apple connected to them)
Both are running Compressor 4.1.2. I'm trying to make a disk image from a Apple Pro Res 422 HQ Quicktime 29.97 DF (drop frame, NTSC) The file is big since it's HQ so it takes a while to compress. I'm using the Create DVD preset in compressor and choosing " When Done: Create DVD" then below that "Output Device: Hard Drive" Because I want to have a disk image for back up and future burning so I don't have to tie up any systems doing this again.
It get's the the very end where it has that disk burning icon come up on the dock and then a warning comes up saying that there was a "error making the disk" and then that's it. I want to be able to create a disk image. Old compressor (3.what ever) works great, takes a lot longer to compress things but at least I haven't run into this issue with it.
I've had my destination set to the internal drive's, external drives .... you name it I've tried to save it in different places. I've added a background picture, removed it, nothing seems to work ....
Please help and much appreciated if you can help me out here.
Cheers

Comparing video quality of AVCHD BluRay discs using Final Cut Pro Share vs Compressor

Up front, I will admit to being a newbie when it comes to using Final Cut Studio 3 and would appreciate some feedback from the Apple forum experts.
I have spent a lot of time trying to determine how to achieve an optimum group of Compressor 3.5.2 settings so that the playback video quality of an AVCHD BluRay disc is equal to or better than one created by using the simpler auto settings of FCPro Share, version 7.0.2.
When using Compressor’s auto/default maximum settings, I experienced the same error message reported in:
Error MessageDuring Creation of Blu-ray Disc in FCP and Compressor 3.5
https://discussions.apple.com/message/12073794#12073794
I have since made some Compressor AVCHD Discs with smaller bit rate settings and compared video quality with a single FCP Share AVCHD disc. Both seem to be equal in providing a very good video when viewed on my new Panasonic DMP BDT 310 BluRay player. However, the Compressor AVCHD discs show some motion artifacts not present with the FCPro Share version, especially when scrolling text or when objects are moving through the field of view, and visible artifacts are seen from a stationary chain link fence and other lattice work in the background of the video sample.
My sample video used for the comparisons between Compressor and FCP Share discs is a 21 minute duration home movie, originally captured from a mini DV, Canon HV30 1080i camcorder using ProRes HQ encoding(1440x1080), and dragged into FC Pro 7.0.2 timeline where 10 chapter markers have been inserted.
To create an AVCHD disc using FCPro Share, Markers are used to set the IN and OUT points, Select IN to OUT from the timeline, pull down File Menu Share, Select Create BluRay from options in pop out Share pane, and designate output device along with picture files for Background, Logo, and Title options. When these are completed, click on Export. My 21-minute video required almost two hours for encoding including about 10 minutes for burning. This accomplished on an iMac 3.06 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo.
To prepare this same 21-minute video for use with Compressor, I again Select IN to Out from the FCPro timeline, but this time use File Export as a QuickTime Self Contained movie including Chapter markers. Then Open Compressor, choose Create BluRay from Template pane, right click on the down arrow in the Batch window and load the QT self contained movie file. From there I went to the Inspector window and tried various combinations of bit rate settings along with Frame Encoder options such as Better or Best motion parameter controls.
I have tried the following combinations of Bit rate settings along with varying Frame Encoder controls and burned an AVCHD disc for each example:
Example A
Compressor set to 6 Mbps Average and 8Mbps Maximum, Frame Encoder settings OFF. Approximately 4 hours to encode although the time remaining estimator indicated a larger value of ~7 hours; not an accurate estimator at all.
Example B
Compressor set to 6 Mbps Average and 8Mbps Maximum, Frame Encoder settings ON, using “Better (Linear Filter) and Better (Motionadaptive)” settings. Approximately 4 hours to encode, not the 13 hours that were estimated.
Conclusion: Comparing A & B Compressor versions, Disc B showed some improvements in reducing motion artifacts over Disc A.
Example C
Compressor set to 13 Mbps Average and 15 Mbps Maximum, Frame Encoder settings ON, using “Better (Linear Filter) and Better (Motion adaptive)” settings. Multipass checked. DeInterlace was checked. Unknown hours to encode; about 8 hours done overnight..
Conclusion: Disc C showed some minor improvements reducing motion artifacts over Disc B
Example D
Compressor Auto settings,i.e., 15 Mbps Average and 17 Mbps Maximum, Frame Encoder settings ON, using “Better (Linear Filter) and Better (Motion adaptive)” settings. Multipass checked. Approximately 12 hours to encode, done overnight. Inserted disc next morning after the overnight encoding was completed, and a few minutes later an error message pane appeared that the maximum bit rate had been exceeded. This message was consistent with the Apple posted thread referenced above. Unfortunately the long overnight encoding was wasted.
It seemed to me that the best Compressor settings for suppressing the motion artifacts were displayed by the disc burned in Example C, i.e., 13/15 Ave/Max Mbps with“Better” Motion settings in the Frame Encoder.
However, when this disc was compared to the AVCHD Disc burned using the FCPro Share, the latter still seemed much better. I do not know what the auto bit rate values are as set in FC Pro, but for me, the quality is quite good AND the motion artifacts are significantly reduced, especially evident with the scrolling text.
Sorry about this long post, but I thought the detail would be necessary for the experts, and maybe helpful to others trying to get started in this BluRay arena. Did I misuse Compressor? I think the sample video exported as a self contained QT movie was the right thing to do? Not sure where I went wrong.
Thanks in advance for Feedback and Recommendations. For now, I’m going to stay with the simpler process using Final Cut Pro Share function.
BoBo

Thank You, Brad, for responding; glad to hear I'm not the only one having similar Compressor issues.
You may have hit on something. Perhaps Compressor's use of H.264 encoding was the reason for my motion artifacts? And perhaps Final Cut Pro Share retains the 1440x1080 quality as it burns the AVCHD BluRay disc?
I had Toast 10 for less than 30 days a couple of years ago, and was lucky to get a refund.
What version of Toast do you have? Wondering if new Toast 11 has improved previous bugs, especially upgrading its Chapter text, pictures, music. I would go back to Toast if it came close to mirroring DVD Studio Pro, or even iDVD capabilities.
Thanks,
BoBo

New Mac Pro 2.66 Ghz Nehalem Quad and FCP and Compressor

When something goes well for a change it deserves its rightful place in the posts of this discussion forum. I just completed my hook-up and an initial test on my new Nehalem quad Mac Pro, and I must say that once in a while things do work out.
1. The noise level is non-existant. I literally had to check to make sure that the unit was on. This in comparision to my G5 which sounds like the SST on take off. I might now actually hear the audio on my video monitor.
2. The speed is INCREDIBLE! Prior to shutdown, I ran a test by sending an hour's worth of mixed XDCAM EX/HDV footage to Compressor on my G5. At the highest quality 2 hour setting for DVD encoding (double pass) it took the G5 12.5 hours to encode. Running the same clip through the same version of Compressor in the Mac Pro took approximately 45 minutes. This roughly translates into a 16.5X increase in speed over my dual 2.5 Ghz processor G5. I'M SOLD! And for now, the Honeymoon continues.
The only drawback (besides the price) is that I had to buy a $100 adapter/power supply to enable my old 25" Cinema screen run on the new video card.
Thanks

Mac Pro 1,1 (all Mac Pro models come with Xeon).
What matters is cleaning the X1900 of dust and from clogging intake and exhaust - every three months.
Run Apple Hardware Test from your OEM DVD.
Install SmcFanControl 2.x and keep the fans rpm to 800-900 instead of 499-599 base as minimum at least.
Monitor temperatures with Hardware Monitor or similar.
Have you been looking to see in System Profile: Memory if there are any errors?
Normally, clone backup update weekly and running Disk Warrior at the same time should be done to spot disk directory and file system problems before they get worse. Or any time your system freezes.
Freeze... and what you have 90% of the time is a corrupt directory and other errors.
At which time you may need to restore if you can't fix the problem. And don't rely on only Apple DU First Aid to find and repairs any and all errors.
For Snow Leopard maybe a flashed ATI 4870 to replace the X1900.
You may need to start over from scratch to get things stable once you find what is happening, and work with a test system until then with some trial and error. Format/initialize and clean install of 10.6.x for the OEM 10.4.7+.
At nearly 4 yrs now since it came out, not sure if you have plans for a new one.

When sending job from Final Cut Pro to Compressor using local QCluster

When sending job from Final Cut Pro to Compressor by way of Share and using the local QCluster, the audio renders, but the video errors out saying something along the lines of Can not locate file.
If I use 'This Computer' it works fine.
What gives?
Fresh install of OS and FCS.
Thanks!

I'm just learning the intricacies of Compressor and Qmaster myself, but I have learned that when you use Qmaster you can not share directly from FCP. You must export a Quicktime movie (reference movie seems to be fine) and input that to Compressor. This is only an issue when using Qmaster, as you've seen.

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?

Compressor 4 will not open and I cannot purchase an update

Compressor will not open on my computer because " you cannot use Compressor with this version of OS X." I am using OS 10.9.4. I cannot find a software update for Compressor but the App store offers a recent version to buy. When I attempt to buy it, it is says that I "already have a copy installed. Choose Software Update from the Apple Menu to check for available update." It does not appear as a software update. I am at a loss for a solution.

So the App Store "sees" your copy of Compressor on your system. However, I don't know why you would also get the "cannot use" error. AFAIK, all versions going back to Compressor 3 should work.
I would download an app called FCS Remover and use it to trash the app and related files.
Then download and install a fresh copy.

Can't Open Many Programs - Possibly due to Lack of a Tiff Compressor

I hope I'm posting this in the right place...
First, thanks for taking the time to read this.
Ok, down to business. A couple weeks ago I went to open the Halo Demo for Mac I had installed on my computer. After I chose to play in full screen mode, a large white screen displayed with the words: "Quicktime and a TIFF(LZW) Compressor are needed to view this picture." It then hangs there for a second or two and quits. I tried reinstalling the demo and opening it back up, but to no avail. I also had installed Macromedia Flash and Fireworks MX 2004 and Flash 8. They would appear in the dock after I tried opening them, hang there, and then would quit. I had to uninstall the Macromedia programs and the Halo Demo anyways because they were taking up space on my computer. I later found out about something that I wanted to do in Macromedia Dreamweaver, so I took my Studio MX 2004 CD plopped in my drive and reinstalled the entire suite onto an external hard drive formatted as Mac OS Journaled. The same thing happens with all adobe products installed on my computer (and with a few other programs); they either display the screen that says I need Quicktime (which I have installed) and a TIFF Compressor to display the image, or they just hang in the dock for a second and close. I opened the Console, tried opening dreamweaver, and the following log was displayed in the Console window:
dyld: NSAddImage() error
dyld: no suitable image found. Did find:
/System/Library/Printers/Libraries/libConverter.dylib: mach-o, but wrong architecture /System/Library/Printers/Libraries/libConverter.dylib
I'm not sure what that means, as I'm just starting to learn about advanced computing skills and such, but I noticed that it said that a suitable image wasn't found. I thought this sounded similar to the error message I was getting before. Be sure to note, though, that before I reinstalled the Halo Demo and Studio MX 2004 the first time, they did work. I think the problems arose at around the same time. I'm not sure what's going on, so I'd like to know if anyone has any answers or solutions to my problems. Any help would be appreciated.

Does anyone know the answer to my question? And is LZW the default Mac OS Tiff decompressor?

Regarding Compressor 3

Regarding Compressor 3: When I submit a FCP 6 file I get message:"Unable to submit queue. Please restart your computer or verify Comp. installation is correct". No changes to system in last 3 yrs. Any ideas?

According to your signature you're running Lion and so presumably you had to install FCS 2 fairly recently. How did you do that innstall?

Compressor stalls at 0:00:01 or 0:00:00 remaining

I'm using FCP 7.0.2 and sending a minute-long edit to compressor 3.5.2. I use the mpeg 2 program stream setting and everything seems to go fine until the 'remaining' countdown gets to :01 or :00.
From that point it just, well, sits there. For hours if I let it. There's no error message as such, but when I quit the background process and check the file destination it leaves an unreadable file that is huge. On the last try, after about twenty minutes of doing nothing, the file was 44gigs, the largest I've seen was over a hundred gigs so it seems like it's continuously writing even as it seems stuck.
I've had this setup for at least eight months and have output files this way successfully until now. Anyone have any ideas?

I have a solution!
What I did was cut and past the clips into a new sequence in FCP and then resent it to Compressor. That seems to have solved everything. Clearly the error was being generated in FCP rather than Compressor.
Thanks to NLEdit for trying to help, it's appreciated!

Error trying to open source media - Compressor 1.2.1

I have a problem with a movie that have been sent to me. I seem unable to add it to a batch in Compressor or in Final Cut Pro 4.5 HD for the that matter.I'm using QuickTime 7.0.3 adn Mac OS X 10.4.3
When ever I had it to Compressor I get this error:
"Alert: Error trying to open source media file"
http://www.saruken.com/temp/Compressor-Error.jpg
And when I import it into Final Cut I get this error:
"File Error: 1 file(s) recognized, 0 access denied, 1 unknown."
http://www.saruken.com/temp/FCP-error.jpg
The settings for the offending movie are:
Format: H.264, 640x480, Millions, AAC, Stereo (L R), 22.050kHz
FPS: 29.97
Data Rate: 90 kbytes/sec
Key Frame: Every 300 Frames
The only difference between my test, which works fine, and this file is the frame rate (mine is at 25fps) and the number of audio channels (my test was in mono).
The file I was sent was encoded in Compressor, not sure which one - but I think it might be version 2.
The strange thing is it opens in QuickTime fine. I've tried exporting from QuickTime Pro as another h.264 with mono sound with no joy. I've tried saving a reference of the movie to see if that works, again no joy.
The only way I can get Compressor to accept the file is by transcoding it to another codec, like Soreson 3. Then FCP and Compressor are happy.
What I can't work out is why the h.264 file I made is fine (and any file I still make as well), and the one I was sent is not. I'm also having the same problem with an h.264 file I downloaded from Apple QuickTime Trailers, and an another I found on the web.
Updates that have been done recently incase they might have caused the problem are 10.4.3 and installing Motion 2 Trail (since removed), which wanted to update Pro Application Support (this might be the problem?).
Any help greatly apprieated
Hami

I just tried the offending movie file on my Powerbook, it has never seen Motion 2 or those Pro Application Support updates - and it gets the same error.
Very odd indeed - any ideas?
thanks in advance

Compressor 2 not working in FCP 5

I'm having a problem with Compressor 2 and FCP 5.
For the past several months, I had FCP 5 and Compressor 2 working on
my 800ghz G4 Titanium powerbook. No problems.
However, I needed to go back to FCP 4.5 for compatibility issues with other
machines at work.
Long story short, I couldn't get 4.5's compressor working, and when I Reloaded FCP 5 again, compressor is just whited out when I try to export
from the timeline. Even when I try to load the compressor program by itself, it won't open,
although it shows up in the applications.
I've removed preferences and plists, but nothing is helping.
Any input would be appreciated.

How did you know I had DVDSP2 on my system?
I didn't.
Is the problem I related somehow linked to DVDSP2 being there?
I don't know. However, a good place to start is to de-install anything that is related to Compressor and this note from Apple is the only official document that lists all of the Compressor related files. True, it's for Compressor 1.X, but Compressor 2 is similar and this should give you a start on cleaning up your system.

"Motion and Compressor Will Not Open Because Of A Problem"?

Last week I installed FCS 3 on my iMac and everything appeared to work OK.
However, as my iMac had been cluttered with rubbish for 2 years I erased the Hard Drive and reinstalled OSX 10.6.3 together with all FCS 3.
I have only used FCP and STP since then but today I discovered that Motion and Compressor "will not open because of a problem".
Here are the reports where it appears that in both cases the "Dyld Error Message", whatever that is, reports that "Library not loaded etc. etc."
Incidentally there are mentions of 14 and 18 crashes since last reports. This is ridiculous as I have only just tried to open them 3 or 4 times in the last 5 minutes . . . . and the computer OS and apps are all freshly installed.

As I was installing Motion from a backup disk image, I thought maybe the .dmg was corrupt, so after deleting again I put the original DVD in and reinstalled.
However, it still won't open and the crash report seems a little different:-
