Export Quicktime File for DVD for Composer

My Composer wants a quicktime file of my film. I know if I export it the way that I usually would for iDVD, the file will be too large to burn onto DVD. Any suggestions about what to do? If he doesn't need the full resolution, how can I change the size & res options before I export it?
Thanks!

Most composers want a frame-accurate, or at least a frame-referenced, piece of video. With your extreme compression, she might not get what she needs to do accurate syncing of the hero shot s with the hero music and effects stabs.
I'd ask her for more information and I'd also think about providing a copy of your film with a timecode overlay.

    First be sure login and password are OK. Sometimes the address starts wit "http://..." and sometime starts with "ftp://...". Try both normal FTP access and Scure FTP access (SFTP). At the end, contact the site's provider.

  • FCP Stops responding when exporting quicktime file still

    FCP Fresh install and FCP Still fails to export quicktime file, stops responding.
    I'm in the middle of a project, that really needs to be finished ASAP. Anyone out there have a solution to fix this problem, will be appreciated more than can be said.

    You know Lloyd, if this is a second thread about an old problem, you are really better off in the original thread. It allows us to follow along with the problem at hand, what has been suggested and what you have tried so far and the results.
    Just off the top of my head and without searching for the original thread (I'm too lazy today,) I'm guessing you might have a corrupted file or render file.
    Does it always stop at the same place? Where is your media stored? to where are you exporting? How much ram do you have?
    Here we go, starting all over again...

  • I need to export Quicktime files using the PhotoJPEG, MJPEG-A, or DV codec.  Is this possible in Final Cut Pro X?  In the options under export I don't see any of these available.

    I need to export Quicktime files using the PhotoJPEG, MJPEG-A, or DV codec.  Is this possible in Final Cut Pro X?  In the options under export I don't see any of these available.  I'm a newbie to this so any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I'm importing .MOV files from my Canon 5Dmk2 at 1080p.  So should I just export using a different codec and then use Compressor or MPEG Streamclip to convert to an MJPEG-A or PhotoJPEG codec?

  • PE7 and Exporting Quicktime Files for Streaming

    PE4 saves Quicktime (H.264) files with the header at the end, so trying to stream them as they download in a Flash player doesn't work (the entire file must download before it will play).
    Has anyone with PE7 had any luck streaming Quicktime files? I wish there was a way for me to ask an Adobe developer if they addressed this in PE7.

    You can definitely export chapter markers to a QuickTime movie. Whoever is playing it back needs QT Player 7.1 (I think) to be able to use chapters though.
    Make sure you select Chapter Markers in the FCP export dialog instead of All Markers. I have never tried it with a streaming file but go ahead, be a pioneer and tell us how it works out.

  • Problems viewing exported .mov file from Mac for viewing on PC

    I am working with a reporter who has a PC at home while I am editing a video for her using FCE 4.1 on a MacBook Pro, using HD footage from a Canon Vixia HF20 AVCHD camera. I burned a draft of the video we are working on for her to look at on her home PC, exporting the FCE project as a straight .mov file. But she could not view it on her PC even though she has viewed .mov files on her computer in the past (but this is the first time she has tried to look at .mov file exported from FCE on a Mac). What might the issue here be? Do I need to export the file in a different way? Might she have an older version of Windows Media Player or be unable to view certain versions of .mov files on her computer? Should I hand it off to her instead as an .mp4 file? Any help much appreciated.

    You'll need to copy the Apple HDV Codec to your MacBook. Since it won't be Intel native (unless you get FCP 5.1) you'll have to force QuickTime Player to run in Rosetta; it should be a setting in the Get Info window for QT Player. You should then be able to view the video (though I haven't tested this myself).
    Hope this helps.

  • Exporting .Mov files at 24fps for Final Cut Pro 5

    I work at an animation production house and we're trying to export .mov files from QT 7.1.2 at 24fps so they won't have to be rendered in a FCP project which is a 720p project with a frame size of 1280x720, we're experimenting with two codecs. We're using Motion Jpeg A and Photo Jpeg, selecting 24fps but for some reason they import into FCP 5 at 10fps. It's as though QT isn't outputting accurate 24fps .mov files. When I export .mov files from FCP they import back into FCP without having to be rendered. What's the difference between the ones exported from QT vs. the .mov files exported from FCP. We're using the exact same settings and files....? The reason we need to use QT to do this is because it needs to be a somewhat automated process (lots of stills to work with) and our PA's are working on Windows with QT only.

    You should post your inquiry at Final Cut Pro section for better support. Anyway, Final Cut Pro does not always recognize the frame rate correctly, depending on which application (and possibly which codec) you used to compress video. For example, Snapz Pro X and Adobe After Effects don't get along with Final Cut Pro in this respect. Furthermore, compressing video in H.264 will be a bad idea. So simply adjust the size of Canvas so that it won't cover the whole screen. In this way, you can even replay video on Canvas and even send it for final production.

  • FCP stops responding when exporting quicktime file

    When exporting a quicktime file FCP 5 stop responding about 50% to 60% into the file.
    Have all the latest updates:
    In the middle of setting up for a DVD.
    Total media lenght is 01:58:30
    Thats why I'm segmenting it in to chapters so each file is smaller, average 10:00 to 15:00 minutes each.

  • Burning exported quicktime file to cd

    Newbie here. After exporting different short (less than 3 minutes) files to quicktime (using a variety of settings) my quicktime file plays fine on my computer. I have even uploaded these files to Youtube with no problem.
    The problem is burning the quicktime file to a cd. I've tried different write speeds, but the file hangs or is so choppy it is not watchable. I am not able to view the quicktime file on my computer or any other.
    My computer is new (less than a month) so i tried burning a quicktime file exported from iMovie. That file plays fine. I wasn't sure if the problem was my cd drive.
    Is there something simple i am missing? I've read many parts of the manual and looked thru this forum and am not finding a solution.

    I was using a cd as the file was so small (ranging from 6mb to 600 mb - i've tried 2 dif files and converted them to quicktime multiple ways).
    I did use the "quicktime movie" option to export, (along with the conversion. The conversion options had more settings i could control for Youtube use which was suggested on another site.http://www.kenstone.net/fcphomepage/you_tube_reduxgary.html) The sole purpose is to upload to Youtube. I'm burning to a cd as i am just giving the file to the person i made the movie for so they can keep it and upload to Youtube. I have not tried putting the quicktime file onto a dvd, but didn't think that was not needed for a 10mb quicktime movie. I did make the movie self-contained, but it won't play on my computer either.

  • Export QuickTime file with new audio and maintain the file size and quality as the original.

    I shot some footage for a client yesterday and ran into an issue. To make a long story short I have QuickTime mov files shot with my Panasonic GH4 that have a buzzing sound in the audio track. I have clean audio from a recorder that can be sync'd. Is there a way for me to do this for the client and deliver them as the same QuickTime file but with the clean audio and keep the file size close to the original and not have quality loss in the image?
    If so I will probably put all of the spanned clips together from each interview and sync the audio before delivery. I am just not sure which codec will give the client the same quality footage compared to the originals and not have a massive difference in the overall file size. They did request that they be Quicktime MOV files though so that is a must.
    I don't see this as an option in the codecs in the export settings in PP, but is there a way to export as ProRes or another MAC native codec that will save them from having to convert it on their end? I am on a PC with Adobe CS5.5 so I am not too familiar with MACs, but from what I understand they would need to convert the files if I sent them straight out of the camera.
    I found some related search results for this but they pertained to "Best quality" for export. I am not sure how the varying options work but I don't want to create files that are considerably larger, just not less quality.
    If anyone has experience with this it would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Cole

    Here's the workflow: I imported the video footage into iMovie '08 and did my edits. Then I exported it (share) to my desktop with compression set @ 740 X 480. Then I used QuickTime Pro to fix the audio track. The file plays perfectly with both audio tracks working. It's a QuickTime file (.mov).
    I hope this jars any replies as to why the file when uploaded to my iWeb gallery drops the second audio track.
    Hmm,

  • Error message when trying to export audio file to DVD

    I recorded an interview on a portable voice recorder and transferred the data into Garage Band by connection of a cable connected to the headphone of the device to the speaker input in the Mac. Garage Band took the audio file. It is 1.5 GB. I did some minor editing and wanted to save the file onto a DVD. When I selected "share" to export song to the DVD, an error message came up stating that the file was over 2 GB, which it wasn't. The file was then broken in two and one part was "shared", but the same error message came up. I took the computer to the Apple store for the Genus to help me with, but he had the same problem. The only way that he was able to save the audio file to a DVD was to select the file and place the file on a blank DVD. However, it can only be listened on a computer with Garage Band. I intend to use my voice recorder again to interview people. How can I input the audio file in the Mac and have it saved on a DVD to be played on multiple devices?

  • Why does Adobe Media Encoder fail to export Quicktime Files?

    I'm using Adobe Media Encoder CC 2014 on a Windows 7 Pro 64 bit PC.
    While exporting the Quicktime variant of H.264 for ATSC television broadcast files, Adobe Media Encoder fails.  Non-Quicktime H.264's render correctly, but some television stations require quicktime.
    Troubleshooting reveals the problem only occurs when attempting to make a 1920x1080 H.264 QuickTime file.
    Using the same original file (1920x1080), Adobe Media Encoder WILL export a 720x480/486 H.264 MOV file.
    More interesting still, it will ALSO export at 1280x720.
    Testing this information to it's limits, I found that the cutoff for a successful render is between a frame size of 1610x906 and 1609x905.
    Useless, random sizes, I know... but that's the breaking point for Adobe Media Encoder CS6 (6.0.3.1 to be precise) and H.264 Quicktime files.

    I'm trying to make a file with the extension ".MOV" using AME's "HD 1080i 29.97, H.264, AAC 48kHz" preset.  AME fails every time with the following message:
    "Encoding Failed
    Export Error
    Error compiling movie.
    Unknown error."
    Any other file extension (MP4, M4V, etc.) renders fine.  The issue seems only to happen when attempting to make an MOV file.  It doesn't seem to matter whether I use AME's built-in preset, or customize my own render settings--the problem always happens with any MOV larger than the size I mentioned above.
    All of this used to work just fine on the same machine 2 years back with Adobe CS5, previous version of windows and QuicTime.  I've been all through the Adobe and Windows possibilities, so I'm grabbing at straws here with QuickTime maybe having something to do with it.
    Interesting.
    Would you happen to know if Adobe has made any changes to its manner of muxing long-address MPEG-4 AVC data to the MOV file container? Since the MP4 and M4V files encode properly, have you tried opening these files in a media player and simply using the "Save As..." option to move the date to an MOV file container without transcoding audio or video data? I.e., is there any obvious relationship between the size of the MOV file encode (less than/greater than 4 GB) as a function of the resolution "break point" previously discovered?

  • Exported quicktime files have video & audio out of sync

    I am using FCP with a Sony HVR-Z1E. All seems ok in my edit etc but if I try to export my edit to a quicktime file using the quicktime conversion option the audio and video are out of sync on quicktime. If I export using quick time movie option, all is fine as this file is played back by FCP. I have tried different settings but I cant get the audio to be in sync with the video. My settings are HDV 1080i50 on my 15" Macbook Pro
    Thanks for any help

    You can open your "quicktime movie" (not qt conversion) in quicktime player. Simply control click on the file in the finder and choose open with... Try that and let us know if the file is in synch.

  • Trouble writing large Quicktime file to DVD

    I'm having trouble writing a large (2.4G) Quicktime mov. file to DVD. If I burn it as a video it comes out fine, but when I try to write it as a file the end product is jerky and staggered and can't be easily transferred to another computer. I'm wondering if it has anything to do with the size of the file and if there is another way of transferring this file uncompressed, short of carrying my hard drive across town.

    The trouble is caused by the speed (data rate) that can be achieved when playing from DVD media via QuickTime Player.
    If you burn the DVD as a "data file" you should then copy it (temporarily) to the HD of the viewing machine. Drag the file from the DVD to the Desktop on the viewing machine and then open it with a double click.
    When you "burn" it as DVD media you are actually converting the file to MPEG-2 format and the DVD Player can handle these lower data rates.
    Does this make sense to you?
