EXPORT HDV PROJECT FOR CINEMA

I have created a project with HDV 180i50 setting and would like to export it as the highest possible quality because it is going to be put on 35mm film for cinema. I thougth it would be good to export as TGA file, but I don't seam to be able to get it widescreen. What do you think I should do? Thanks!

  • Exporting HDV project for use in Premiere

    Hello All,
    I have cut a new scene for a film previously edited on Premiere Pro 1.5.
    The new scene was put together on FCP 5.1 and whenever I export I am left with a file that my PC doesn't recognise.
    Does anybody have any thoughts on this?
    Many thanks,
    Paul

    the simplest fix for this is to put the scene back to tape and digitise it on the PC straight into premiere.

  • Exporting HD project for use in DVD SP

    Hi Guys,
    Very glad I found this forum as I am just out of ideas to get this working. Here is the situation:
    I have a project of a wedding in HDV, which contains 3 sequences with the following lengths:
    The Service = 45mins
    Photoshoot = 5mins
    Reception = 80mins
    I have decided I would like to have the Service + photoshoot on ONE DVD and the reception on ONE DVD. If possible? If not possible I will have the reception spread over two but i do not see the need.
    First of all I have a Powermac dual 1.8 which doesn't have a dual layer dvd burner, so to have a higher quality result and to be able to fit more on I have decided I probably best to get a Dual Layer burner to do this project.
    But before I do that, I need to work out what is the best settings for exporting this project out of FCP 5.1 to work on a SD DVD? Do I use compressor? If so which preset or what settings of my own? I have tried various things and I honestly get lost and my project in DVD SP is around 12GB. So i try exporting again with other ways in compressor and then the quality just looks terrible.
    The FCP project is all in HDV with apple intermediate codec so I would be exporting from that, but obviously only need the DVD in SD!
    If it helps converting the HD project to SD/DV I can do that with the sequence which I did try and then some more export experimenting but it looked really bad.
    Please help guys I am desperate and no idea on what to do here.
    I really appreciate your time, feel free to ask me anything to help you determine what I should do.
    Thank you so much.

  • Exporting final project for youtube (with high quality)

    hey guys,
    i have been trying to export videos and upload them onto youtube giving them a high quality look for some time now.
    the website recommends for the best quality:
    -mpeg 4
    -320X240
    -MP3 audio
    -30 fps
    there is even a video on it here:
    http://www.google.com/support/youtube/bin/answer.py?answer=55745&topic=10526
    i tried two different ways of exporting my project. i use fc express hd on a macbook pro...the first export was an mpeg 4 divx export. i used the 4 recomendations but it still came out pixilated. i then tried the regular mpeg 4 option in the export menu. this one had a different audio option. there was no mp3 listen and ACL audio or something like that,
    either way they both came out pixilated! this was only a 5 minute long video. i have seen plenty of videos on youtube that were 8 minutes long and crystal clear.
    there must be SOMETHING i should change in my exporting options! please help! its been like a year and a half now that ive been searching for clear youtube videos!
    thanks for your time,
    Mike

    hmm i tried there suggestions and unfortunatly it came out pixilated!
    i was excited to see the results too because that page given seemed like it would work...
    i double checked all of the settings and they matched up with what they suggested...
    does any body have any suggestions? thankyou!

  • Preparing a HDV project for a DVD

    I've finshed a 80 min HDV project in FCP.
    I also have compressor and DVD studio pro.
    What is the best way to just the project to DVD-r?

    Another question to add. I have edited a hd video that is about 30 minutes. When I export to Compressor, it takes FOREVER. I am on the second day of rendering, and it says that there is going to be about 3 more days. After reading a thread on here, I am not even sure that, even if I get it to a manageable file size to fit on the dvd, the dvd will even work in any dvd player. Any help?

  • Only sound, when I export HDV project with Quicktime

    I'm working with Final Cut Pro 5.0 (yes I know I have to upgrade) with material from HV 20.
    When I export my finished project with the export to Quicktime opt. I can't watch the movie in Quicktime player, Itunes, VLC or MPEG Streamclip, only in FCP. The Sound is there but know picture.
    since I do not yet have DVD Studio I know have a problem, since I cannot make a DVD out of it.
    Or can I? Why is there no picture? How can I do it the best?
    I also tried exporting it through compressor to H.264 and quicktime. That as well didn't work.
    Grateful for help!!!
    /David

    Make sure that you have the current HDV codec present in your /Library/Quicktime folder. If you don't have the codec you will sound but no picture. The codec is automatically installed when installing FCS--but interestingly I had to manually install it from the FCS install packages using Pacifist when I upgraded to Leopard (on my PPC machine, the Intel one was OK).
    Unfortunately Apple does not make the codecs available for download--which makes no sense. If you want to pass an HDV movie over to another machine you must manually install the Apple HDV Quicktime codec. I don't even know if Apple considers this some sort of violation of their License.

  • Exporting imovie project for windows pc

    Hi-
    I created a project using imovie and exported it so I could put it on a website. It looks great on my mac but it won't play on a windows pc. I exported it by choosing "Export: to Quicktime" and "Formats:Web". It saved it as a .mov file and also created several large DV Movie files. The DV Movie files would take forever to upload to the webhosting site server but the .mov file took a few seconds. What am I doing wrong? Help! Thanks.
    15" laptop G4   Mac OS X (10.4.6)  

    Hello-
    I'm using imovie 3.0.3 The mov file is 44kb. When you call it up on a pc, it says it needs the "fade in" file and goes on to say it needs all the clip files and other fades I put in. I did see that on the older project I did a couple of years ago for the same website, the clip and fade files that were uploaded were "kb" in size, not the original "mb" sizes. There was a way to export it so the file sizes were smaller and it played on both a mac and pc...but I can't remember. Would exporting it as a "self-contained" movie do the trick? The self-contained movie I created is 1.1 GB. It will take quite a while to upload...but I wonder if that would work?

  • Aperture cannot export multiple projects for original files

    i want to export projects (original files) to time capsule folder for sharing
    i can only go into the individual projects, select all, then export to my desire location
    but i cannot select multiple projects and do it at once, as i have 100+ projects
    it will be a nightmare if i go projects by projects

    Tks for the reply , the reason I wrote (original) means I want each project name will be a directory name
    That is what the Export settings in my screenshot should give you, if you select the images from several projects at once and export using "File > Export > Originals".
    Only you have to select the images inside the projects, not the projects in "Projects" view. Move the projects to a containing folder and select all images in the folder, or select all photos in the "Photos" view.

  • Best way to export iMovie project for editing

    I am creating an iMovie project in iMovie 09 with a friend. I have part of the movie and he has the other part (basically I have put together a lot of the video and some transitions, and he is going to put in some music he created and add a couple of other cool things). I have created my part of the movie and I would like to send the project to him so that he can add his part to finish the movie. I am not sure what the best method is to save my iMovie project so that I can sent it to him. I don't want to export it to something he can't work with on his end.
    I am thinking that if I save the project as a QuickTime movie it will allow him to open open the file in iMovie and then he can add his stuff. I was also thinking about ways of exporting to mp4 format as I know this is a format that iMovie likes, and he could open this up in iMovie. I wasn't sure, though, how to make sure I save the movie project as a mp4.
    Do you all have any thoughts or suggestions on this?
    Thanks,
    Tim

    I don't think I have the answer, but if you don't mind I'm going to drop into your discussion because I have a similar issue and am interested in any solution someone may give you. I have a couple of iMovie project files because, like you, I have two people working seperately, and I just want to combine them as a single project.
    I was able to move both projects to one computer by moving the iMovie projects to an external hard drive and then opening them both up from the same computer. That solution probably doesn't solve your issue, though.

  • Advice on exporting PPCS3 HDV Project to file for WD TV player

    I would like to maintain HD quality through the Export process to create a file that will be played on a Western Digital TV HD Media Player.  I have tried a multiple of export settings without success.  My goal is to play back using the WD TV player with the file stored on a USB drive...file size is not an issue.
    I capture the HDV footage from a Canon HV30 camcorder into PremProCS3
    I use the Project Settings preset = HDV, HDV 1080i30 (60i)
    I have stabbed around with Export, Movie... as well as with the Adobe Media Encoder and can't find the magic
    When I capture/edit in iMovie09 on a MacBookPro, I can easily export to a .m4v which plays back in great HD quality on my 46" TV via the WD TV player.  But I can't seem to find the right preset or custom setting within Premiere Pro to get the job done.  I greatly prefer the PP editing environment and want to stick with it.
    The attached jpg file is a scan from the WD TV User Manual...supported video formats.
    Thanks, in advance.

    Hey, I'm glad I found you guys.  This problem has been messing up my workflow for over a year.  Maybe you can help:
    I'm shooting HDV with Sony HD1000, capturing with HDV split, editing in Premiere.  (So far, so good)  Problem is, exporting from premiere (HDV 60i project) produces "squashed" and letter-boxed video, and my graphics and titles are "mis-aligned" with the video.  It's like premiere scales down my video files, letter-boxes them, but leaves graphics untouched, which of course throws everything off.  My only work around is to edit in an NTSC project, and scale down every single video clip myself, which yields lots of rendering.  I thought I solved the problem, by importing the entire premiere project into after effects.  Export worked great, no loss of quality, but after effects doesn't recognize premiere time-remapping, titles or wipe transitions (and has issues with .m2t audio)!
    I've tried every form of exporting from an hdv project  (adobe media encoder, straight to encore).  ALWAYS squashes and letter-boxes the video files, while leaving the graphics/titles as is (now appearing larger than they did in the program monitor and less crisp.)
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.  I love premiere for standard dv, I just can't get around this obstacle with HDV...

  • Exporting HDV to SD for iDVD

    Have been using the "Send to Compressor" in FCP 7 for HDV export to Blu Ray. But have a wedding project shot in 1080i that I want to use one of the iDVD menus. Project is 2 hours and 18 minutes so exporting to two discs isn't an issue. Disc 1 is one hour and 9 minutes. Have exported using QT self contained with current settings. Read Ken Stone's tutorial re HDV to SD but that is for use in Studio Pro. When encoding in iDVD, have tried both Best Performance and Professional. Issue is that quick motion is a bit mushy and any horizontal lines (railings etc) have the 'ribbon' effect. Threw a de-interlace filter on the entire timeline and it seemed to help a bit. But the Blu Ray version is spectacular with the SD version disappointing (not as good as shooting earlier projects with mini DV camcorders).
    Any suggestions?

    Denis
    I'm using compressor 3.5 for my HDV projects. But if I send it to compressor via fcp 7, no iDVD menus. If I do the suggested Ken Stone route (Pro rez HQ vs mpeg 2), I still can't import it into iDVD . . . correct?

  • Problems with exporting my first HDV project

    Hello everybody
    When I want to export my 30 min HDV project it takes forever around 10-15 hours. When I finally got a self-contained quicktime movie file exported. It does not play in anything but FCP. Why is it so slow and how can I make it go faster?
    I have a Macbook 1, 83 ghz 1 gb ram and FCP 5.0 the video is compressed to HDV1080i50.
    Rendering is finished.
    Thanksful for help
    /David

    Without wanting to spell it out to you, yes, as the other guys have correctly interpreted, the article highlights the fact that HDV is processor/RAM intensive, and it seems to me that your system just hasn't got the grunt to make HDV a fluid format to work in... One of the main hassles is the re-conforming of the GOP structure (HDV is an mpeg2 type format) when exporting HDV sequences, which is why many people capture/transcode to a full i-frame format to avoid GOP structures all together.
    Without meaning to seem rude or brush off your original enquiry, there is loads of information on the forum about pro's/cons of HDV... a simple search will help you out.

  • Is there a way to export an HDV project out to tape (FX1) after Export?

    I know I can import HDV footage from the FX1 into FCP5, perform edits and then "Print to Tape" (FX1), but is there a particular format I need to export to, to be able to created a file for import into a new Project for "Print to Tape"?
    In other words how do I export an edited HDV File back to tape frm within FCP5?

    I import footage from 2 diff tapes (Cam Angles) of a Cooking show taping.
    I edited the clips together and added titling
    I then exported the Project out (Current Settings) to a single file
    I open that file in After Effects to add Motion Graphics
    I export that back out in the HDV format
    Now I want to export that file to tape by importing into FCP5 HDV project and doing a "Print to Tape" command. But when I do this I get serious frame drop outs.
    I hope that made my situation a little clearer.

  • Upconverting DV for an HDV project

    Hiya,
    I have been putting together a large project based on HDV footage.
    I have a small amount of footage filmed on a PD-170 in 16:9 mode, delivered to me captured onto hard drive as DV.
    Is it possible to process this so that I can use it in my HDV project without rendering and resizing all the time?
    TIA
    Miller.

    You'll want to start a new hdv proj - drop your dv into the tl - resize it then export out as HDV to use in the hdv project.
    Think I'd opt for an fcp render then use a ref movie in the proj - if that doesn't work or proves to be problematic then you'll have to export out a hdv movie file to use.
    Do it once and get it as good as you can.

  • Appropriate "master" format for HDV projects

    If you have a typical HDV project in Premiere and you'd like to give your client a "high quality master" of the finished project, for them to recode at their leisure, what's the most appropriate output CODEC to use, where file size isn't an issue (very short projects like TVC's, or longer projects delivering on hard drive)?
    Matthew P

    This will probably get moved over to the appropriate forum, since this isn't about CS5, but...
    Lagarith or Ut Video Codec
    Since you're using CS3, you need the 32-bit version of either of those.
    For uncompressed, your options would be Microsoft AVI with None as the codec, or QuickTime with None as the codec. Both are playable (well, they can be opened, but realtime playback may not be feasible) on either a PC or Mac.
    I would not suggest Animation for live video; it's better used for (surprise) animation or any type of motion graphics that has large, even fields of color, and not the various gradations usually associated with live video.
    Pixel aspect ratio and frame size will vary based on the end application, but my typical course of action is to export with square pixels at whatever dimensions are full raster for the particular format you're using--for example, 1920x1080 or 1280x720. Anamorphic aspect ratios (like HDV 1080i) are usually fine, however; it just involves the end recipient realizing that the aspect ratio needs to be properly interpreted.
