Export Pal SD video -- H264 Master file

When EXORT PAL SD video (720x576) in the Master file H264, BitRate output is approximately 2.7 Mb / s
Everything is OK if the image is static and no zooms or panoramic Svenka, then losing image quality.
My question, if anyone knows how to increase the bitrate to a higher value (eg 5Mb / s).
  Why do you ask ... In one or another situation when the export to MOV you can not keep interlaced video, and I need it. In fact, all other options export videos in H264 mov true progressive video.

I'm not sure what I can say that will be helpful to you.
DV is what it is. The bit rate is what it is. Having created something in  DV (or DVC PRO) PAL or NTSC, you cannot increase the quality by raising the bit rate in another codec. If you export as h,264 at whatever bit rate and the problems are either eliminated when viewed on your computer or substantially reduced, it will be pretty conclusive that the problems are interlaced artifacts – because, as you have correctly noted, FCPX de-interlaces when H.264 is selected.
t may be helpful if you could post a screen shot of the type of image problem you are talking about.

  • Export Problems: "The share operation Master File has failed"

    When I try to export anything out of fcprx whatever the setting I get this "The share operation Master File has failed- The operation could not be completed because an error occurred when creating frame 1406 (error -1)"
    I have read that it a dodgy import but I did it correct this time?
    Any Idea how I can stop this?

  • My brand new 15'' retina macbook pro takes 10 hours to export a half hour video's master file! How can I fix this, what is wrong with you people?!

    I'm not applying any special effects or anything, and it doesn't matter what I export to, it just doesn't work! If I publish vid and audio, 10 hours, to go on webhosting, 10 hours. My media is optimized and everything, I don't get it. Also, when I send to compressor, and then send the job out, it just sits there in the share manager for days not doing anything. I spent over 3 grand upgrading my system, getting this dumb program, and had to sell my FCP7 monster Mac to get this "mobile studio." Don't get me wrong, I love FCPX, the feature set and everything is great, but exporting is a real pain. What do I do, where can I go for some real answers?!?!?!

    How much memory on your MBP?
    Also, are you using external drives for your media? You could get a huge traffic jam if you have your OSX, your apps, and your video Events all on the same drive.

  • How to export 1080 HD video to MPG4 file with chapters?

    Now that I have put a sequence together in FCE, how do I create a 1080HD MPG4 file that can be used on a PC, MAC or with the WD HD Media player (for those that know the latter).
    Thanks!

    That process will work, but won't give you HD video (as iDVD output is only SD). If you have FCE and Quicktime Pro, you could create what you are after.
    1) In FCE, use File->Export->Quicktime movie ... (and include all markers) -> File1
    2) In FCE, use File->Export->Using Quicktime Conversion ... -> File2
    3) Using Quicktime Pro open File1 and File2, extract the chapter track (text track) from File1 and then add it to File2.
    4) Using Quicktime Pro make the newly added text track in File2 the chapters for the video track. Save the result a self contained QT movie file.
    You will now have a a HD video file with chapters.

  • Export project in MOV H264 AC3

    Hi ... one question ... is possible export one project video in a file MOV h264 but with AC3 at 6 channel and not AAC at 6 channel? because home theater not support AAC but only AC3

    With Final Cut Pro X:
    Codec: H.264, AAC, Timecode
    I want export by FC Pro X one project in AC3 audio ... but the software will not let me choose the audio format ... only Quicktime AAC.

  • I am trying to export a video I have made in FCP 10.0.8 to Youtube or to a master file and I keep on getting an error -50, or "error exporting master file at frame 20074" Any ideas?

    Having used FCExpress for a while I decided to give FC Pro X a trial, I created my first video with it, exported to youtube and it worked fine.  I am now trying to export my second video to youtube and I get an error -50 which means absolutely nothing.  Not being defeated that easy I tried exporting to a mster file using the H.264 codec and I get an error "exporting master file at frame 20074" - again another useless error.  It takes at least 10 minutes to get to this error after the rendering has started, it gets about 12% in.  Any ideas where to start - I am seriously at the point of giving up with Final Cut Pro X simply on the basis of it being more trouble than its worth - I am just glad I did not pay for it yet...
    Any help would be much appreciated.
    Gerry

    Hi Russ,
    Thanks for your response. I am not an experienced user of FC or other video editing software but if its that hit and miss I think I will go to the trouble of finding some better software - I have a busy enough life as is, I don;t want to get into second guessing what a software problem might be!
    I have just successfully exported my video to a master file using one of the Apple codec options so it looks like it could be to do with the H.264 codec.  I am wondering if Apples Compressor software would solve this problem - the only way to try this it to buy it, there is not trial for the compressor app.  Any ideas?
    Thanks

  • Export as a master file FOR Youtube?

    I want to export my videos for uploading to Youtube, however at the moment the file size is enormous (we're talking 6gb for a 4 minute video), which of course takes forever to upload.
    I want to export it as a master file, rather than exporting it directly to youtube within FCPX, because I want to have an actual copy of the file on my computer, as well as the fact that I've been having some trouble with the youtube sign in through FCPX, so basically I've just been export in as a Master File with all the default settings for 1080p.
    Anyway, what settings should I use to get a good quality video that isn't so enormous that it takes ages to upload?
    Sorry, I'm pretty new to this, and kind of teaching myself as I go along.
    When uploading to Youtube, it suggests uploading a different format for faster processing/uploading...
    So I clicked the link to the help centre where it talked about how to encode the video. But I'm still trying to learn all this, so I'm not sure if this is something I need to do when i first start the Project, or if there are settings I should change when I export it as a Master File, or if there is something I've just missed altogether.
    I'll include screen shots of Youtube's recommendations.
    Any help or advice would be hugely appreciated Thankyou!

    My suggestion: keep it simple.
    The simplest way is to export a master file AND also export to youtube. There is nothing preventing you from making several exports of the same material!
    (As it happens, you can also do this "double export" in one fell swoop, using destination bundles - but, again, keep it simple; you can learn that later).
    Anyway, you certainly don't need Compressor. Compressor is only useful if you need something specific that FCP X can't directly provide - but that usually means an experienced user who knows his/her way around the arcane compression options - in other words, complex stuff.
    If you don't want to use FCP X to export directly to youtube: just export a Master File, but instead of the default (which is ProRes, and, as Karsten explained and you acutely felt, produces massive files), choose H264. Then upload via the youtube site.

  • Looking for some help with an error message when exporting master file. I'm stuck and would even pay to get this sorted out!

    Hey guys, I'm really in a bind here and need some urgent help tonite. I would even be willing to pay for some actual help and not some vague information that i may not be able to understand if we could do something via skype or some other way that would be much quicker than a message board. Of course I have to have the project done by tomorow . so I'm new to fcpx, but have succesfully exported 2 other projects. I've also ran into this predicament before (error message not allowing me complete export) and have been able to solve that by converting the files i imported off my camera (canon g20) to a different file type (prores).
    so where I'm at now: i have a 13 min short, all shot on my canon g20, imported and converted to prores422 with the brorsoft video converter with all the shots in a single event in fcpx. i'm using fcpx version 10.0.08. I have one main video track in my timeline that is completely full of very fast edits. (all quick 2-5 second clips, sped up shots in 2x, 4x, or 8x, tons of transitions, titles, and a little fx. theres 2 audio tracks, one is narration/speech and the other is an ongoing music track that constantly ducks everytime the subject speaks (tons of ducks/edits). Have you seen mtv cribs? Well i filmed an EXACT replica. So If you've seen one of those episodes, its literally the same exact same thing. I have all of my work completed, everything has been fully rendered, and i have it exactly as I want it.
    I'm including all this information in case it may help. my successful projects ive exported in the past were rather simple, and this one is very complex and full of edits. here is what it looks like in the timeline:
    Ive tried exporting the master file using almost all the different ways with no luck. My primary objective is to get it on youtube by any means by tommorow for a showing to a potential buyer (long story) and so I've been told using the h.264 is the best format for that. This, along with the other methods give me the same error message:
    It think it gives this error message when i reach 24% everytime during export.
    So first of all, what is that error message? Do i need to be concerned about the specifics of it, or is there something major that I'm missing? Like i said, i dont care how, but I need to get this video up on youtube tonite for an important viewing tomorrow. Conceptually, I think if i can figure this one out I shouldnt have any more trouble in the future doing something so basic, yet critical, such as exporting my 40+ hours of work for someone to see.
    anyway, I apologize in advance for my lack of knowledge with this software, and for my extremely long winded question which will probably have the opposite effect for me as most wont want to take the time to read all this, BUT i figured if i was as thorough as possible it might help actually getting a concrete answer, instead of a "read the manual, exporting is on page 37." or "use the share button on the right of the timeline then just click export master file and it will work everytime."
    Cheers everybody, and thank you. Like i said if someone is up, and willing to talk via skype, phone, messanger or any other method that works for you I would be totally down and will compensate you generously for your time. thanks again.
    Taphabit

    boom! that advice was correct and worked. i was able to export the full project as a quicktime movie and it can be uploaded to youtube.
    NOTE, theres is definately quite a few noticeable audio glitches/lags/pops that werent there before doing this. I believe, and will test to make sure, that having a project such as this one needs to render before exporting. I'm not sure if the advice requires the project to be unrendered before exporting for a specific reason, because if it will export fine after rendering the project that's the way to go. like i said the edited version i have in my timeline plays back perfectly but this exported version has quite a few noticeable audio glitches (a few video glitches too). I'm going to retry doing the first few steps of your advice, but then at the end render, then export and compare the results...
    OK, so this leads to a big question, Is this something that is standard for everyone when trying to export? If its not, what causes this error?
    is there any way of preemptively avoiding it in future projects?
    thanks again, and hopefully this information will help others as exporting seem to be one of the biggest problems in fcpx. any word on a new patch or firmware update?

  • Why, when exporting as master file from FCX, I have problem with sync

    I edited all audio of a short movie in protools, bounced a stereo file, imported it in final cut and shared the master file at prores 422, from there through compressor I have created 2  files (mpeg 2 and ac3) and burnt a  dvd but seems always to be out of sync , why?
    fortunately  i still have dvd studio pro that allow me to "nudge" the  audio to fix the problem, but all this is quite time consuming. 
    any advice?

    I have fixed some issue about audio and video, created a new project with correct sample rate, imported the master video at same frame rate, and in pt bounced  a new track of audio, so  no orange bar, everything fine in FCX,AUDIO AND VIDEO PERFECTLY IN SYNC.  i exported a master file at best current setting and in compressor have created a dvd setup hi quality, 2 pass vbr encoding mode etc
    and.. imported the m2v file and ac3 in DVD STUDIO PRO, and on time line i hear out of sync, now i don't know if the problem happen during the encoding in compressor or is dvd studio pro.

  • Exporting The Master File, AVI Uncompressed.

    Hello Everyone.
    I want to know what Is the best Export Setting to Export my 1920 by 1080, 30 fps,  Edited Version movie, so I can have a File that Is not Lossless.
    from there I can always Export to other settings such as You Tube, or even D.V.D.
    My concern Is to have the best possible File, I have Plenty of Disk Space so It is ok for me To save them In My Hard Drive.
    I use the MPEG2- HD 1080i 29.97.  
    Also I have a choice of using  the: Match Source High bitrate.
    My friend told me,  the best Export setting for the Master file Is:  AVI ( Uncompressed) with the Quality Slider to 100 percent, and check the Use Maximum Render Quality  box Checked. Then you have nothing to worry about, and later you can export that to what ever version you like.
    Please let me know, which one Is correct.
    Once Again Thank you very much.

    ...so I can have a File that Is not Lossless.
    I'm confused.
    Surely you meant you want a lossless file for archive.
    Here are a few recommended free codecs.  I prefer Ut for archives.
    All of these are better choices than using .avi Uncompressed.

  • EXPORT FEATURE IPHOTO-Video Files in "Event" are exported as an empty file!!!

    Ok...this is devastating! Lets say you have selected an event containing 10 photos and 2 videos...you then choose to export the entire event via FILE>Export...
    When you are prompt to choose the file types, location, and quality you make your desired choices and off you go...at first glance in the newly created folder that you have designated on another drive or folder 10 photos and 2 videos show up....PLAY the videos and they are 1 second long instead of their original length...
    If you hand't played the video you would assume that everything worked perfectly and you could then then delete the event and master files from your computer to acquire more space, but this would essentially cause you to loose the true video in its entirety and could be devastating!
    I think this feature needs revision!

    Download and use  Find Any File  to search for the file name and extension of the video.  FAF can search areas that Spotlight can't like invisible folders and packages.
    You may find several items with the same name so check their size.  Note where the larger file resides.

  • Error 108 when exporting in Master file

    My project is a 2-hours multicam edit. And I have this error 108 when I go to the Final Cut Pro X share menu and select "Master files" (Fichier Master" en français).
    After a certain period of time, an alert will appear with this number.
    What I don't get is why it's working when exporting with the other entries from this Share Menu !
    Ps : I saw that this question was replied quite a time ago, but the given solutions don't work for me.

    When I use the export menu, it is said Video Codec : Source is Apple ProRes 422

    As you might know this problem is known but never found any help. some say it's a bug...

  • Extremely long Master File Sharing/Export times (MP4)

    I, too, it seems, am having extremely long Sharing times with my FCP X project(s).  It's a one hour, 50 minute HD video.   Nothing fancy, just a couple talking heads comprised of 7  .mov files and appx. 65 graphics and black generators as B-Roll.  When I share it to a Master File as an MP4 video it takes nearly 36 hours to complete.
    The Transcoding takes more than 8 hours before it gets to the export phase.  I have "Create Optimized Media" and "Create Proxy Media"checked in the FCP X Prefs and have Background Rendering switched off, FWIW.
    I have a 13" MacBook Pro (mid 2012) 8GB RAM, 1TB HD and running 10.9.2.  I don't know if it makes a difference but I have Perian and Flip4Mac installed.
    Activity Monitor shows that I'm using 6.34GB physical memory and 10.5GB Virtual Memory.  The Memory Pressure graph is green.  Activity Monitor shows these processes: a kernel task of 750MB, FCP using 600MB and ProTranscoder Tool using 286MB.
    I've shared copies of this same video to YouTube and it took about just as long but it shared successfully.
    I was just wondering if there was any way to cut down on the rendering time - which, based on what I've seen in the discussions may not really be possible on a 2-hour video.  I will have another video in a week or so to finish and it's the same length.  Also, I may have a couple more projects in the future (if the client likes these) that will be similar.  My goal is to not have to wait days for a project export/share to be complete.  Worse, as was the case today, I decided to add one more 5-second graphic and had to re-do the entire Transcode/Export process.
    I looked into getting Compressor but that doesn't seem really necessary or beneficial in my case and, based on the reviews, can actually add even MORE time to the process, it seems.
    Thanks for any suggestions or pointers.  I'll continue to look through the discussions for info.

    Since I just downloaded the trial version and started this project I'm still learning as I go. At this point, I may actually end up having to purchase FCP (which I actually REALLY like - except for the hideous export times).  I used the OLD Final Cut Pro a good many years ago on a G-4 Quicksilver so this is somewhat of a re-learning experience. 
    When I began the project I'm trying to finish (now that I recall) I actually exported it from iMovie to FCP.  That's when I needed help using the generators because I needed to cover the 16:9 video while using a 4:3 graphic.  I began using this current version of FCP without initially setting or changing any preferences.  So, I believe the Optimize was already toggled.  I wasn't sure abut the proxy but you cleared that up for me.  Thanks!  I just made sure those two were toggled for this latest share/export because of something I read about maximizing (which I'm doing a lot of these days!).
    The second program's .mov files I shot and began editing were imported directly into FCP and, again, I don't recall that I toggled the Optimize option.  I know I was sure to copy both programs' files to their project and not keep them in place (avoiding potential file issues).  I also exported that second, similar, video at one point (probably because of the issues with the first program) and it, too, took a comparable amount of time to export.  It is an hour and fifteen munutes long.
    Since my MBP is new, I got the (what I assumed to be)was the maximum RAM. I've since learned you can (expensively) actually upgrade it to 16GB.  I'll opt for a SSD first, tho ;-)
    When I get a chance after I'm finished with this current export ( which occur tomorrow sometime :-/ ) I'll try the Pro Res export and then try the MPEG Streamclip (which I have and use frequently) option.
    I'm using a new Toshiba Canvio 3.0 Plus external 1.5TB (non-Thunderbolt) drive formatted Extended/Journaled/GUID partition to store my project and actually did quit FCP and restarted the MBP prior to beginning this export with no browsers running.
    And, fwiw, at 6:30pm EST the project is 44% of the way through the Transcoding process.
    Thanks for your help and time.

  • Error message when attempting to export master file?

    I am running Mavericks and have FCP 10.1
    When I try to export a master file, I keep receiving the error message "The share operation master file has failed.  An error occurred when creating frame ..... (error -1)."
    I've turned off background rendering, I've tried copy and pasting entire timeline into a new project, and I've tried deleting project and event rendering files.

  • Good evening. When I try to rename a master file or export a master file, it only allows 9 spaces for my new name, even though Aperature 3 allows many more spaces than that for version names. This creates a lot of problems and headaches for me.

    Good evening. When I try to rename a master file or export a master file, Aperature 3 only recognizes the first 9 spaces for raw .NEF files, even though it easily uses twice that many spaces for version names. I have a system in place that works really well for me, wherein by changing the file name I can recognize what's important to me just by glancing at the file name, no matter what system it is in, I do not have to open or mouse over anything to know what the file is. My files also arrange themselves in order no matter what file system they are in. Can someone please tell me if there is a setting, or something I am doing wrong, that prevents me from using a longer Master file name. I can't be the only person who would like to have his Master File names correspond to the name that appears in the Aperature library, and would like to use at least 16 spaces (numbers, letters, etc.)

    Hi Frank,
    As you suggested, I am attaching several screen shots. In the first one you can see how I set up my preset. I used "Custom Name" and "Counter" with a dot between the two drag ins, followed by "D90". I also have a dot to seperate the 8 digits in the Custom Name and make it easier to read.
    I then click "OK" which takes us to the second screen shot. Here you can see that in the Example File Name everything looks perfect, and you can see I have clicked on "Apply to Master Files".
    In the third screen shot you can see that the version in my library did in fact change correctly. With the "mouse over" pop up screen you can see, however, that the Master File name was changed  to "1933.1017.NEF". It failed to carry the "12D90" and if I go to where my masters are stored that is exactly what the name was changed to.
    In the fourth screen shot I attempt to export the master. You can see how my "Version Name" is set up.
    And finally on the 5th screen shot you see in the File Name Example the name "1933.1017.NEF" once again, which when I export the master is exactly how the name will appear. Since I will export more than one file at a time , a (1) and  a (2)  etc., will appear at the end of the names because all the files are being given the same "1933.1017.NEF" name.
    I hope this reply does a better job of clarifying my problem. I am anxious to see if this is something I simply misunderstood, or if I am simply doing something wrong.
    Thanks,
