Export mpeg2 in Final Cut Expree

Maybe this topic has been covered, but I cannot find a clear answer to my problem. I have been searching the net for almost an hour! :P
I have Final Cut Express 4.0.1, QT7 pro with the Mpeg component. Mpeg Streamclip, and any number of open source programs.
I just need to export an mpeg2 video from final cut express, simple.
And before people start asking why... it for a solid state video player that requires MPEG2 or MPEG1

Hello, and welcome to the Final Cut Express forum.
Unfortunately, it is not possible to export MPEG2 or MPEG1 from FCE.
You might try ffmpegx. It's aging but people have reported it working fine in Snow Leopard (10.6.x)

  • Export MPEG2 from Final Cut, HDV  for use it on PC platform

    My client needs to upload the videos in a PC network, he asked me to deliver the final videos on MPEG 2. I have tried to export by using compressor but the clips come out without sound. How can I have the videos with sound and in MPEG 2?
    Or is there any other format that I can export on, so the videos can run on a PC? I tried WMP from Quicktime but it only exports up to 30 seconds. Do I have to buy a Flip4mac to be able to export a longer file ? and if so which version of Flip4mac is advisable?
    Please help me. Thanks.

    I noted that by doing WMP videos the files are way smaller in size, which is very good for me because I have to FTP 20 videos of 2 min. each to my client. Is WMP the same quality or equivalent to MPEG 2?
    I assume you mean WMV files?
    Yes, WMVs can be superior to MPEG2 files, but it's all about the choices you make when you encode encoding them. It's also possible to get very acceptable WMVs at very small file sizes, again depending on your content and your encoding expertise.
    Flip4Mac's documentation will take you through the steps and the choices. Pay attention to the details and test, test test.
    I've found that Windows users are always happier with WMVs, as there are never any compatibility issues - and the last thing I need when the deadline is getting closer is troubleshooting my client's windows installations.
    Best of luck.

  • Is it possible to export video from Final Cut X to DSR-PD175 mini DV camera

    Hi,
    Recently i buy on 27inch iMac with Final Cut Pro X installed.

    Now i am abel to capture my video from DSR-PD175 mini DV camera to FCP X.
    How can i export video from Final Cut X to DSR-PD175 mini DV camera?
    Please advise....
    Thanks & Regds

    II'm afraid not.
    Not digitally anyway. Maybe by going to a monitor that has analoh AV output to the camera.
    Probably Premiere. Or old FCP7.

  • Exporting files from Final Cut Pro in Snow Leopard

    I am using Final Cut Studio 2. I recently upgraded to Snow Leopard. Before the upgrade when I would export files from Final Cut the dialog box would automatically go to the last used folder location. Now, each time it goes to the system hard drive. Is there a way to fix this?
    Thanks

    Fix what?
    Just choose the correct folder to which to export.

  • Can't Export Video from Final Cut Pro

    After updated to OS Maverick, I can no longer export video from Final Cut Pro.
    It pops up "The operation couldn’t be completed. (com.apple.Compressor.CompressorKit.ErrorDomain error -1.)"
    ANYONE CAN HELP??

    10.0.2, I think this is where the problem is.
    I will update to the latest (10.0.9) and update this thread to see if this will resolve my problem.

  • Command to Export project as Final Cut Pro XML from jsx script

    Hi All,
    Can somebody get me the command to export the project as final cut pro xml from jsx script.
    I was using the extension builder script earlier for cs6 panel development, so we were using pjct.exportFinalCutProXML("pathname");
    Now I am working for panel in Premiere CC so working on HTML 5 panel and qe dom scripting(.jsx).
    In some jsx examples i got there is script to export sequence as final cut pro xml but cannot get the code for project export.
    project.activeSequence.exportAsFinalCutProXML(entire_out_path);
    Also please let me know if there are any kind of reference available about all the functions and properties in the pe dom scripting for premiere pro cc.
    I am using premiere pro cc 7.1, windows 7, Eclipse Kepler.
    Thanks in advance,
    Anoop NR

    When you reimport the exported project XML to FCP, do you get the full project or just the single bin/sequence? If you get the full project then it sounds like you need Premiere help, not FCP help ... have you tried asking on the Adobe forums? If you only get the single bin/sequence then it seems you might have inadvertently selected those prior to creating the project export. Try making sure that your FCP Browser window is active and that you have not selected anything within that window prior to using the File > Export > XML command. If that still causes issue then you might try using an earlier FCP XML version.
    Hope it helps

  • Why they ask me get a compressor from App Store to export video from final cut since I use mavericks

  • OMF won't export out of final cut pro.

    Exporting a 93min 1920x1080 HD timeline to OMF
    5 second handles tried 2 second handles as well.
    OMF won't export out of final cut pro. Get error message there is a 2 gb limit.
    Final cut 6.0.6
    Have deadline. Didn't see it on any forum. Help!! Thanks!!

    Seems like a weird thing to not be able to do since it's called final cut PRO...
    Bagging on Final Cut Pro for OMF? HA! OMF has been around LONG BEFORE FCP was introduced. It isn't an FCP issue...OMF technology is VERY old. Over 20 years I believe. I used it on Avid...and it always had a 20GB limit.
    You cannot deliver 1 track via OMF. You can ask the audio person. I know that Avid now allows you to export an AAF...but FCP doesn't do AAF. For embedded audio I think that OMF is the only way. SO you have to work within the limitations of that format.

  • How to up the DPI on exported images from Final Cut

    Is there a way to export stills from Final Cut that are 300 DPI, I think they are exporting at 72 DPI? 
    Catherine

    DPI is a measure of density of pixels. It tells us nothing about the printed size of the image (width in inches x height in inches)
    A 1200 x 900 image @ 300 dpi yields a 4" x 3" image when printed.
    That same size (in pixels) image printed at 100 dpi will yield a 12" x 9" print.
    The number of picture elements (pixels) is exactly the same between the two prints but the one in 100dpi image are 3x larger - which will yield a softer image when viewed from the same distance as the 4"x3" 300dpi image.
    However, if you view the 300dpi 4"x3" print from 2' away and view the 100dpi 12"x9" print from 6' away - they will appear the same.
    Discussions of finding meaning in DPI is difficult without knowing how the final will be viewed.
    fwiw - I've made poster size prints at 75 dpi that looked just fine when viewed from 10-12'.

  • Quicktime Export Components in Final Cut Server

    Our company has purchased a number of Elgato h264 encoders and we're loving them. They reduce our h264 compression times on average from 15-20 mins down to 2-3 mins. It usually compresses our videos faster than real time. Which as a news organization is great for us. These encoders work great on all our Macbook Pros & Mac Pro systems. I've now installed one onto our final cut server and set up a custom compressor setting. Under the 'encoder' tab the file format had to be set to "Quicktime Export Components" instead of "Quicktime Movie" to use the Elgato. And it works great when I send a single file threw compressor. BUT I can't get this custom preset to show up or work inside Final Cut Server. I have other custom settings that do show up and work (but they are all "Quicktime Movie" file formats). I've rebooted multiple times and looked under multiple Responses transcode settings, but the new one I've created to use the Elgato never shows up.
    Is it possible to use Quicktime Export Components in Final Cut Server?
    I couldn't find any mention of this in the FCS admin manual or any other posts in the forums regarding this.

    I have seen on MediaSilo.com a tip to get Elgato H.264 working with Compressor, but I can't seem to be able to find it. Basically, the trick was to create a duplicate setting in Compressor that Final Cut Server is able to read ( not as Quicktime Export Component), associate it with a Final Cut Server's compression setting and later reassign that setting in Compressor to Elgato.
    I will keep diggin' for this tip, it was actually a screen recording.

    my sequence is in Final Cut yet. The problem is, is an art work and every time I have to show somewhere, is diferents DVD players, so I tryed to play the one (exported by quicktime) in a dvd player quite old and actually worked but very bad, with errors! So, I trying to find a way more universal!! that I can play anywhere! Should I export by "compresseur" and Mpeg2 something like this, or "compresseur quitktime" and .avi??
    thanks

  • What file type to export vid from final cut to studio pro

    Beginner here, the question I have is what is the best file format to export from final cut to studio pro so that I will play in a decent to good quality on a DVD that I make in studio pro. Thanks.

    For my FCS projects, I export DV_NTSC "anamorphic" (I use 16:9 format) to a "reference" movie: that is quite fast after all rendering is completed and the resulting file is pretty small. The only disadvantage to "reference" I've found is that you must keep all those FCS file around since those are what is referenced by the export.
    I export like that instead of exporting to compressor because for me, exporting directly to compressor is very slow; on my G5 Quad, my compression step is about 1:1 with real time.
    You can take those .mov files into DVDSP and let it do the compression using your defaults. I prefer to use Compressor directly so I can set the compression, Dolby, etc. parameters. Compress to mpeg2 and AC3 (Dolby Digital) and if you are just in stereo, just keep it in stereo, check the "no surround encoding" and make sure the highest audio level in either channel is -3db (or the compressor setting let you reduce the level by 3db). That prevents a downmix to mono (like on a cheap TV) from clipping (-3db + -3db = 0db. (zero plus zero = +3db and is clipping).
