Export changes sequence from 16:9 to 4:3

Editing Apple ProRes 422 with mts files converted to mp4. When I export sequence to mov or mp4, the aspect ratio changes from 16:9 to 4:3 and the picture compresses. I'm using Export>Quicktime Conversion. Is there a setting I can change to correct this?

Yes, I couldn't find a way to convert the .mts files to .mov and could only convert them to .mp4. Appreciate your answer but not completely understanding it. So are you saying I should convert my sequence using Export>Quicktime Converter and change the settings to ProRes, or are you saying I should convert the source files to ProRes somehow?

Exporting a sequence from Premiere Pro CC is taking hours

I am new again to Premiere after a 10 year hiatus. I have Premiere Pro CC and as exciting as it is to have the entire suite of products, I feel like resorting to iMovie after trying to export. I was initially getting acquainted with After Effects and solved my render times there after a little frustration, but this seems to be taking me down!
I am creating a "movie" that will be projected on a 4:3 aspect, 20'x15' screen. I created a sequence that's 4 minutes long and it's got a .mov that I rendered from After Effects at the beginning, then a bunch of still images that each last around 5 seconds with a cross dissolve in between each. In the middle there is another .mov from After Effects (bubble effects).
I created the sequence with settings of: Editing Mode - QuickTime DV NTSC, 29.97 fps.
When I try to export the sequence, I use QuickTime for the format; the preset is NTSC DV. This sets the video codec to DV25 NTSC. I've tried rendering with this codec and changing the codec to mpeg-4. I've also rendered with the quality set to as low as 65% with the mpeg-4 codec.
Each time, the "Estimted Time Remaining" just climbs and climbs. I've managed to get to 13% encoded and the time remaining is around an hour, but keeps climbing with each percent rendered.
I have a 27" iMac with 3.1 ghz Intel Core i5 processor, 4gb memory and running OS X 10.7.5
If anyone can help me with export settings or a way to decrease the time, I'd very much appreciate it. I have searched for this topic and each solution I found involves exporting for the web.

Changing sequence from 16:9 widescreen to anamorphic widescreen

I am working on a short video clip shot using 5D Mark II - 1080p. I am editing on FCP 7 and want to change my sequence from 16:9 to anamorphic widescreen without any distortion...anyway this can be done? All my raw files and transcoded file are 16:9.
Thanks
Sid

sure. fcp will automatically adjust this when you edit a clip into the sequence, so after changes the sequence settings, simply edit a source clip at the end of the sequence. Does it display correctly? If so, select the clip, copy, and then select all the other clips in the sequence, hit option-v (paste attributes) and make sure just basic motion and distort are checked. Should fix everything. Then delete that clip you added at the end of the sequence.
Oh yeah, probably a good idea to duplicate your sequence before doing this, in case you make a mistake (or if I've made a mistake - nah, that wouldn't happen).
good luck.

Exporting TGA sequences from FCP

I have been successfully exporting targa sequences with embedded Alpha's from FCP using QT conversion. However, the compression that is automatically put on this, (which is probably RLE or LZW?) is creating individual targas with different file sizes, ie, 128kb, 72kb etc etc.
When exporting from AE you have the option to turn off the RLE compression which results in consistent file sizes, (about 1.6mb for D1 Pal frames). Does anybody know if it is possible to turn the compression off when exporting from FCP?

Shane helped me out, I was expecting the video on the screen to show in high quality. he explained that that's not how it works, video to the screen is not of the quality you get in the final export.

Exporting DPX Sequence from Premiere Pro CS6

I edited a .mov premiere sequence from my 7D and 5D MK II in SpeedGrade by using the "send to adobe speedgrade" option. I exported the grade as a .dpx sequence and brought it back into premiere. Now when I try to export it in h.264 "for youtube hd 1920x1080 23.976", I get a huge loss in color range and blacks become so pixelated and I even lose a lot of darkness in the blacks. The grade no longer looks good. The preview monitor looks great in premiere but it does not match the final export. I need help with this one!

Export image sequence from AS flash file

Hello:
I am new to flash I am using flash professional 8 and
publishing at version 6 (although I can publish to any version for
this issue). I am using ActionScript 2.0 and am animating objects
using code instead of tweens. I need to export the animation out as
separate frames. I need the image sequence from the flash to use in
other applications and other uses. If anyone has any idea on how to
do this I'd appreciate knowing. I'd prefer to not have to buy more
software of course but if that is the case and it is the best way
let me know.
Thanks in advance.

The latest Flash CC 2014 release has an export to SVG option, which exports the current frame as SVG. There is no direct way to export the entire animation as SVG sequence though.

Exporting multiple sequences from Premiere with Match Sequence Settings...

If I individually select a sequence in Premiere and Export Media I have the option of checking Match Sequence Settings but with multiple sequences selected the option goes away. So I have to individually select the sequence, check the Match Sequence Settings box and add to the queue for every. darn. sequence. All I want is to export multiple sequences to Media Encoder with Match Sequence Settings (or add multiple sequences to the Media Encoder queue, same thing). Am I missing something? This seems like it would be used a lot...

For PC users, of which I am one, the Preview Render codec in the Sequence is usually MPEG so best to avoid it. If you can actually use ProRes, then it's understandable that you'd want to "Match Sequence" if possible.

Export image sequence from Flash

Hello,
I made an short animation in flash (Only about 3 seconds) and I am wondering if there is a way to export the animation as an image sequece. I could've sworn I've done it before but I can't find any information on how to do it. If anyone can give me information on if this is possible and if so how to do it I'de appreciate it. I am using Flash CS3, and I just need to get the animation exported as individual images.

yeah i get the idea of guide layers and how useful they are. just dont want all my rough layers visible when i export an image from flash.. my point being you never had to hide guide layers before publishing on old versions of flash which i think makes more sense.. why would you ever want to see a guide layer on a published image?? anyway, i discovered this only happens when using actionscript 3.0 but not 2.0 so, ive gone back to 2.0

Change Sequence from HD to NTSC after video build complete

Using Premiere Pro CS5 I inadvertently left the Sequence in HD format instead of changing back to NTSC. I complete the whole video (48 minutes) but when I exported it I found myself with a small resolution product about half the size it should be (400 MB instead of 800 MB). My question: Is it possible to go into the video and change something so that when I export the timeline it comes out suitable for the standard youtube video.
Thanks
patlandy

Thanks for responding Jeff,
The video comes from 18 individual movies from a cannon FS300 camera. Image size: 720 X 480, Frame Rate: 29:97, imported as .mod format and renamed to .ms2t so that Premiere Pro would recognize the clips. The videos total 131 minutes, after editing I have 31 clips on the timeline totalling 48 minutes.
When I started the project I just clicked through the sequence page, forgetting that I had just experimented with some wide angle GoPro video and had set the sequence for a previous video to HDV 1080p30. After importing and editing the 18 videos I exported the time line and discovered the size to be 49 minutes and only 340 MB. Previous exports (this is number 8 in a 9 part series) to DV-NTSC_Stardard 48Khz yielded a 40 minute video that was 948 MB.
I'm trying to determine if I have to re-edit the whole project or if there is any way to salvage the 31 clips as DV-NTSC.
How would I copy the HDV sequence (31 clips) to a new (Sequence 2) HD-NTSC sequence?
Thanks

Bridge Exports Changes Resolution from 300 to 72 dpi, resizing my image

I like to use Bridge (CS5) to export my photographs for printing, and frequently I will use the Export feature to resize the images (e.g., 5x7 vs full size), but every time I export it recharacterizes the images as 72 dpi, vs the 300 dpi I prefer.
Consistent with some of the previous postings (~2 yrs ago) I have seen on this topic the exported images are now "sized" much bigger (29"x20" for what should have been ~5"x7"), and hence expectantly I haven't lost any resolution, but it's aggrevating to have the dpi changed.
Can anyone tell me how to export without having the dpi changed?
And while I'm at it, can anyone confirm that I'm not loosing image resolution?
Thanks so much!!

Can anyone tell me how to export without having the dpi changed?
Can't find any other settings to change and just having tested it I can confirm that it sets ppi (it is pixels per inch -ppi- for a digital file which is made from pixels and dots per inch -dpi- from the ink dots of a print ) to 72.
And while I'm at it, can anyone confirm that I'm not loosing image resolution?
You already stated yourself that you did not loose pixels, therefor the size of the files stays the same. It is just a mater of figures. 300 ppi means a larger concentration per inch and 72 pixels per inch means a smaller concentration of pixels per inch. Given the same amount of pixels for both settings this means a smaller image dimension for 300 ppi and a larger image dimension for the 72 ppi.
300 ppi is some 'magic' number from printed press, but it really depends on the need of the job related printing machine. If you have a small image and need to look closely it should have a larger concentration per inch to reflect its sharpness.
However theoretically you would almost have the same visible quality when printed on 72 at billboard sizes. That's because you always have a large distance between your eyes and the bill board. If you look closely you will see the dots (because the billboard is a product of ink dots…) but of course it is not meant to study at that close range.
The same is for judging sharpness on your computer. Ideally you do so at 100 % for correct judgement at real size pixels. But in reality there will be almost no situation you will study a print at that same distance
Any thoughts on why these would be different? And am I fretting over things unncessarily?
Only guesses, the use a different algorithm or calculation scheme, in my case I tried a Canon Raw (converted to DNG) without any ACR settings then the basics applied and found that Bridge export jpeg 11 creates larger files then using PS.
But there are some other concerns I have and that certainly would make me fretting in use of export module:
First of all I almost never use it, merely in this cases for testing, because using the menu tools give a shortcut to Photoshop / Batch and inhere I have created several dedicated resizing and resaving actions that also places the files in preset folders.
But with this small test I found out that
a: it changes ppi to 72 ppi, not a very big deal but I did not asked for it nor did I wanted it.
b: it converts my Adobe RGB color space to sRGB and I certainly did not want that without my explicit wish for this conversion, so this is more then a bit worrying to my concern.
c: it seems to apply a sharpness that I certainly did not want to happen without my knowledge, and this rules the use of the export module out completely.
Since I only tried a DNG file without settings or retouch/developing in Photoshop the jpeg generated by PS was not very sharp. This makes sense to me because I have set my basic ACR to apply sharpening only to preview. There are a lot of different sharpening theories around but I use one in PS itself. So I was a bit shocked to learn that the export module did all those for me unwanted and not adjustable settings putting me completely out of control…
So if you want to have full control about things happening under the hood yourself just start creating actions in PS, it is very easy to record an action and even more easier to play it. Instead of every time dragging files to export module and always recheck the image options (it seems to reset itself always to jpeg quality 8 on my system) only select the files you want to resize and choose menu tool / Photoshop Batch and select the wanted action. hit OK and your almost done, PS does the rest.
The great thing of the latest PS CS6 action pallet is the extension with a so called 'insert conditional' that let's you create an 'if - then else' action for both landscape and portrait resizing actions so you don't need the 'constrain to fit' or 'fit image' option. Just once create an action for both resizing dimensions and then create a new action with insert conditional. choose If image is landscape play action…. / else play action….
It is really a very productive way. I have a lot of actions (organized in sets for better overview) and even one that creates 4 different sizes in 4 different folders using 1 go in Bridge

Export svg sequence from Flash into Edge?

Hey there,
I'm really struggling to get a animation out of Flash into Edge as a frame by frame SVG sequence.
I've tried the Flash2SVG extension in multiple Flash versions and it doesn't work.
At the moment I'm doing this...
from Flash CS6 export FXG
import into Illustrator CS6
save as SVG
import in Edge
which is very time consuming and sometimes stuffs up positioning of elements in each frame.
Anyone got a solution?
Thanks in advance.

The latest Flash CC 2014 release has an export to SVG option, which exports the current frame as SVG. There is no direct way to export the entire animation as SVG sequence though.

What are the exact steps to export a sequence from FCE 4 to idvd.

New to mac/FCE, I have attempted to export sequence to quick time movie then save onto desktop. Then I just dragged the quick time movie from desktop into idvd. This worked, but is there a better way. Thanks - Chad

That's the way you do it. If you making the DVD right away and have finished work on the project you can export a reference movie, not self-contained, smaller and quicker.

Exporting Final Sequence from FCP....

Hello all:
I am trying to export a wedding video out of FCP 4.5 and am having audio problems. It seems fine for he first 30-40 seconds and then the audio breaks up for about 5 seconds and then drops out altogether. The Video doesn't appear to have any problems. When I go back and reopen the project in FCP it plays back fine audio and video. I am exporting the final sequence (collection of nested smaller sequences) as a self-contained quicktime movie, NTSC 720x480 DV, both audio and video. It's 1hr, and 40 min project, (Lots of LONG winded toasts), shot on DV and normal wedding music aiff format. What am I missing, or doing wrong?
Sincerely,
Frustrated...

I remember having to do a mixdown in each of my nests when dealing with this issue in 4.5.
You can also do an end-run around FCP's mis-management of the audio renders by manually throwing away the audio render files for the project in the finder and re-opening the project.
You might also try using the Advanced Format Conversion in Compressor, as that should ignore any pre-rendered material from your sequence.
Also, I have seen this problem when combining 44.1k audio (from a music CD) and 48k audio (from digital video) in the same 48k sequence. You might find it helps in the long run to re-export the CD audio as 48k and replace the music in your sequences.
Hope this helps -

Using FCP server to batch export multiple sequences from a FCP file

Hi... I am researching to see if FCP Server will be useful for our work flow.
We are creating multiple sequences in one FCP project file, and I want to be able to drop that .fcp project file into a folder and have a "watch and respond" action on the folder that takes all the sequences in that project file and applies a compressor preset to each sequence inside the project file without me having to open the file and select all sequences and batch them through compressor manually.
If this is possible then FCPS is going to save us a lot of man hours... does anyone know from experience if this is possible? I know you can take a QT file and do this, but I am not sure if you can do this with a project file!
Thank you
Barry

We work with FCP projects that have 7 - 10 sequences. When the day is done we do a quick export current settings and drag them into the production that contains the fcp project. W also flag them "ready for review" and "send to the web app". Works great for me and costs about 2 minutes. Just about the time it takes to put on your coat and say goodbye to everybody in our little editshop.
