Do you have to wait for FCPX to Render 100% before sending to Compresssor?

Do you have to wait for FCPX to Render 100% before sending to Compresssor?
I don't quite understand how the process works. Is FCPX rendering the footage for me to see in the viewer or is it rendering the final output as well? I had always assumed compressor did the final rendering.
Thank you.

Your timeline needs to be rendered prior to compressor being able to encode your vision.
There are two processes here
1. Rendering, creating an effect, movement or some other piece of vision that requires rendering to provide playback at 100% of the project/time line specifications.
2. Encoding, converting your project/timeline from the editing codec, to a format suitable for delivery, eg, ProRes 422, to a web/DVD/iPhone friendly codec, eg h.264, mpg2 etc.
hope this helps.
Tony

    Do I have to wait for a movie rental to completely download before I watch it?

    It can take the card up to 24 hours to activate after the point of purchase, but if its past 24 hours from when you bought it, the card must not have been activated properly at the register, which is the sole responsibility of the retailer. 

  • How to create a FCPX Project Template so you don't have to wait for titles to render each time?

    Hi there
    I'm currently creating 3-4 minute video clips that all look pretty much the same, just with different video and audio really.
    I have a title at the beginning, video and audio throughout (with a couple of cross dissolve transitions) and 2 titles permanently over the video.
    The video changes per video, the audio changes per video, the title at the beginning changes per video, but the two titles over the video do not need to ever change.
    Is it possible to create some kind of Project Template where I just replace the video/audio clip and the rest pretty much stays the same?
    The problem I'm having is that its taking forever to render the two titles over the video each time.
    Is there anyway to get around it having to render the two titles over the video each time as they dont ever change? (Well the length of them does, but not the text itself)
    Thanks

    • a new, faster Mac
    • more RAM
    • purchase of Compressor, and use its 'virtual render-farm'-feature aka full-use of all cores of your Mac
    • even more Ram
    • clever 'distribution' of source files and project files onto fast (7200rpm/ fw800) external harddrives instead of one single intHDD for OS&working files
    • a lil' more Ram

  • How do i get my ipod touch to download more than one app at a time, can i make it toware i dont have to wait for one app to download before it starts downloading another,

    my ipod will only download one app at a time and runs extremely slow. i was wondering if there is some way that i can make it download more than one app at a time and how can i make the app start downloading again after i have left my wi-fi zone and then went back in. im really confused.

    Download everything on your computer in iTunes, then sync your iPod to iTunes.
    You should be syncing (backing up) to iTunes and your photo app regurally, anyway.

  • When loading video or tv shows it is taking as long as 14 hours plus - if I leave the loading screen it doesn't continue to load? So you have to wait without leaving the screen for 14 hours?

    When loading video or tv shows it is taking as long as 14 hours plus - if I leave the loading screen it doesn't continue to load? So you have to wait without leaving the screen for 14 hours? Unfortunately - I've been reading that this lengthy download problem is quite common - although I thought I saw where someone had loaded videos the day before and then had them to watch later. So, my first rental - I downloaded it overnight - then we go to watch it tonight and it proceeds to start loading again...saying it will be ready in 14 hours and 21 minutes!!! Am I doing something wrong here? If anyone has advice - I would greatly appreciate it. This is the first apple product that I am disappointed with

  • It is ridiculous that you do not have an email to customer service.  I have been waiting for an hour to chat, but it is never available.  this makes me not want to be a verizon customer.

    Think about it...
    The reason they won't use email is so they can "stretch the truth" and get away with it.  They can tell you anything you want to hear over the phone and deny it all later.  In these forums, posts can magically disappear.
    With email, they are caught between a rock and a hard place, so it will never happen.  Things said in email are much harder to go back on.

  • [Help]Playing MP3 files with Juk have to wait for 1 hr to hear voice

    I am not sure how long should wait, but difinately longer than 10min. If you are playing a playlist, you have to wait a long time for next song...
    Observations:
    1. You can hear voice after all, that means the hardware and codec is working properly.
    2. You can play the mp3 file with smplayer without difficulty. that means the filesystem/storage hardware should'nt be problematic.
    3. When waiting for playing songs, the CPU usage of Juk is remaining on about 3%. I believe it is a reasonable value and does not indicating any problem of the program.
    Have anybody here got this problem before? Help!

    in case your phonon backend is gstreamer, change it to xine. that's what is recommended by amarok devs.

  • Is it possible to upgrade to lion or do I have to wait for mountain lion?

    Is it possible to  still upgrade to Lion or do I have to wait for Mountain Lion later in July?  I currently have Snow Leopard and upgraded RAM to 4GB on an older iMac Core Duo in order to use iCloud features in Lion.  Also, I'm wanting to upgrade iMovie and iPhoto, but I'm having difficulty finding a download link that will let me do it online without going through the App Store, and it says I need to be running 10.7.  I feel like I'm in an "obsolete" double bind until I upgrade to Mountain Lion and it isn't possible yet.  I'm wanting to use iMovie 8 or higher in order to download AVCHD video.  I just bought a new camera that shoots AVCHD and I can't download any HD video,  nor can I find any of my old video which used to be on iPhoto and would open w/ Quick Time.  User friendly Mac is no longer so intuitive.

    Yes, you can purchase Lion as well as iPhoto and iMovie from the App Store. But before you can do that you must update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 by installing the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 update. Then you can sign into the App Store with your Apple ID and password, locate the items you want, purchase them, and download them to your computer.

  • When watching a rented movie, it just stops and we have to wait for it to reload

    When watching a rented movie, the movie pauses and we have to wait for it to reload.  is there anything that we can do to stop this?

    This is likely caused by your network.
    What is your connection speed? www.speedtest.net
    6mbps is required for the best experience on HD (you can change to SD in the settings)
    If on wifi try ethernet and www.istumbler.net to check interference
    Make sure you're using the ISPs DNS

  • I just downloaded the latest software OS X on my mac book pro, now whenever I start my computer I have to wait for windows mac to open up.  The open at login is not even checked.  How can I stop this from happening?

    I have a Mac Book Pro and downloaded the latest software OS X.  Now whenever I start my computer, I have to wait for Windows Mac to do its thing.  I checked and the "open at login" option is not checked.  How can I turn this feature off?  It's driving me nuts!!

    All fixed Barry.  When I went to restart my computer, the question was right there.  Do you want to open Windows when opening.  NOPE!!
    I tried it a few times and thank goodness it worked.  Thank you for your help today.

  • So... how long do we have to wait for a RAW update for the Nikon D600 camera?

    So... how long do we have to wait for a RAW update for the Nikon D600 camera?

    Adobe releases Camera Raw every 3 or 4 months. The D600 itself was launched only about 1 week ago. I'm sure its not included in ACR 7.2 RC yet. Nikon J1 is included though. I guess you're gona have to wait for it. Maybe 7.2 final release will have it or 7.3 should. Adobe employees/ product team will not commit to a time for Camera Raw releases.
    However, you can use the software Nikon would've given you to convert your images as TIFF and import them into Lightroom/ Photoshop if you're in a hurry. It would be nice if your camera supports DNG conversion out of the box! This way, you wont need a Camera Raw from Adobe.
    Anyway, you could file a 'Feature Request' to Adobe here: https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform
    Good luck.
