Export to Apple TV straight from Final Cut (QTP/Compressor)

In preperation for my Apple TV, I needed to know how I can "export to apple TV" from Final Cut Pro. I can import my 1080i HDV footage (from a Sony HC7) into iMovie, go to share, Quicktime, Expert Setting and simply click "Export to Apple TV" (which is obviously built into Quicktime now. But when I have the same footage in FCP and go to "Export"...I can't find "to Apple Tv" ANYWHERE! Not in "quicktime movie", "quicktime conversion" or "using compressor". Am I missing something? We can we not export to Apple TV with in FCP?
I've posted this in the Quicktime, FCP & Compressor boards incase it's another issue.
Thanks!

yes....absoultely.
here is my response from my same QT thread:
i know. i have that (QT 7.1.5)...and QTP. in my original post...i said i can do this in iMovie very easily (i explained the process)...but when i try to export from FCP..."export to Apple TV" is not an option.
if you have FCP...you might want to try. i know in theory you think you would...but unless you have FCP...you won't know. can someone post a confirmation that has FCP so people on here don't think i'm loony.
and if you have FCP and can do this...please explain how.
thanks!

Wish to save export setting of H.264 from Final Cut Pro

I am using the quicktime conversion pull-down menu in FCP to create H.264 or MPEG-4 files with certain settings for Vimeo. I wish to save my settings for export rather to avoid having to re-enter them next time. The most recent settings option is not sufficient for me as I have a couple different sets of settings. In the quicktime conversion menu I do not have the option to save my settings like I do in the export quicktime movie pulldown.
Is my solution using compressor? If so, do I then have to use APak to compress the audio?
Thank You.

You can build custom presets in Compressor and use those.
The procedure is quite straightforward and covered in the Compressor user manual.
do I then have to use APak to compress the audio
No, you can let Compressor handle the audio too.

Best Quality Export of Std Def Video from Final Cut Pro to AppleTV

I get beautiful results when exporting HDV content and AIC content from FCP to Apple TV but what is the best way to handle anamorphic SD content? I'm getting pillboxing (black bars on the side) when I do it directly from FCP's timeline. Of course I could open a QT file in QT Player Pro, change the aspect ratio to classic then do an export, but that creates one more level of unwanted compression.
Anyone?

Sure, export it as an uncompressed AVI or QT file.

Exporting 'flv' files from Final Cut Pro

Hi,
I was wondering if there was such a program that would export
'flv' files straight from Final Cut Pro time line for my mac. I
know that you can purchase Adobe Flash which enables this, however
I don't wish to buy the whole program. Is there a video encoder
program or something that you can purchase that will enable me to
export from FCP?

Not sure about FCP, tho I would expect the latest Final Cut
Studio to be able to do
it.
Anyway,
Quick Time Player can export MOV to FLV. Not sure whether
it's the regular player,
I'm having the PRO version for many years and this one allow
that kind of export.
You being a Mac user, I guess that's the easiest and cheapest
way to get FLV out of your
available tools.

Why does Compressor take so long to export a 10 minute video clip from Final Cut Pro?

I've been trying export a 10 minute clip from Final Cut Pro. so it can be used with DVD Studio Pro and burned. However, the rendering process has taken 12 hours! The clip I'm exporting has minimal effects, no music, and is in 1080i 30fps. Does anyone know what's going on or what I can do to speed up the process?

First: How are you exporting? Are you using the Share feature or Send to Compressor?
Second: You haven't said anything about your system configuration or really very much about your movie. What is its format… is it really 30fps or 29.97? Whatever it is, are the project settings identical to the clip properties, or were they changed?

How to export videos from Final cut?

I woud'l like to know what is the best way to export a video of 34min from Final Cut? after I'm gonna burn at Toast! and in Toast should I chose "dvd" or "video_TS"?
I tryed already export with "sequence quicktime" and DV PAL 48 kHz and burn with "DVD", but didn't work.
And export with "via le compression quicktime" in sequence quicktime, burn with "DVD and DivX" and didn't work too!
Can somebody help me?

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

Exporting from final cut 4 to shake 4.1

I want to export an uncompressed quicktime file from final cut but just how exactly do i name it so that shake knows what it's reading?
...Also, when I render in shake and export how do i keep it uncompressed so i dont lose quality?

I don't remember that FCP4 has a 'Send to Shake' so you're basically just going to have to export the clip like you normally would.
Shake reads in just about anything so naming the file shouldn't matter much.
Shake also exports out to just about any format you'd like so choose the one that best suits your needs (Uncompressed or whatever). You'll then have to import it back into FCP as its own clip.
In FCP 5.1+ (maybe 5.0 as well?) you'd have an option to send the clip to Shake. Then you'd mess around with it in Shake and render. Back to FCP you'd reconnect the media and off you go.

Why has exporting a film from Final Cut Express (FCE) HD (3.5) taking 30 times longer and file size increased by 30X?

Exporting a 75 minute film from Final Cut Express (FCE) HD(3.5) through Quick Time Movie is now taking over an hour instead of the 2minutes it used to take. The FCEMovie file is now 14 GB instead of the 1 GB it used to be. In both cases Self Contained was notchecked when exporting. I havetried trashing the Preference file to no avail. There was a message when opening the FCE project that 140render files were offline. Ichecked the box to forget them and also did a Render All Both and Render Only Mixdownbefore exporting. I had thisproblem a few days ago and solved it by reinstalling FCE. However after two days the problem hascome back. As far as I know I didnot change anything in FCE or the system when the export times and file sizeincreased.

I think you are correct about the longer version being a self-contained movie except that I did not check that option when exporting. However, I have opened another project of the same size and that one can be exported in the usual time, the problem must reside with the particular project. A clue is that to regain some disk space I deleted the render folder for several projects including the one I am having trouble with. Also when iI opened that project I got a message that files were disconnected and I think they were render files. I did re-render before exporting and that is when the file length increased by a factor of 13, even though it was not supposed to be self-contained. FCE is working OK with other projects when I export them. I am still puzzled.

Burning a video from Final Cut Pro using iDVD

When I export and save my video from Final Cut Pro to a folder (export->Using Quick Time Conversion). When I do that there are several different videos that are saved in my folder (ie-Kelly Michelle; Kelly Michelle-av1; Kelly Michelle-av2; Kelly Michelle-av3; Kelly Michelle-av4; Kelly Michelle-av5).
iDVD is the program I need to use, I do not have any other programs. Therefore, I import the file to iDVD and once everything is ready in iDVD I try to burn the dvd. However, in the last stages of burning a window pops up and says that "an error was found during the burning process". It does not tell me what kind of an error it is. Does anyone have any advice or a step by step process that I need to do in order to burn my dvd successfully.

The simplest way to prepare a video for iDVD is to *Export/Quicktime Movie* (NOT Using Quicktime Conversion), select Current Settings, Audio and Video and, depending on your needs, other 2 options:
o- +Make Movie Self-Contained+ is preferred to have an independent movie (you can move the exported file, you can continue editing your FCP project before burning the exported version, etc.) but requires more disk space and more time for exporting.
o- +Chapter Markers+ (NOT All Chapters) must be selected if you created Chapter Markers in FCP (markers in the timeline, not the clip, and clicked the Add Chapter Marker button in the marker dialog).
The resulting .mov file (whether self-contained or reference) may be easily imported to iDVD.

Multilingual DVD directly from Final Cut?

I will be making a DVD for a video prodution for tourists. The video has several titles. Both the visuals and the soundtrack must be available in several languages (probably ay least 4). Can this be done straight from Final Cut? or should I use another program to make the DVD? And do I simply make a QuickTime of each language version and then use direct access markers in the DVD menu to jump to each language version?
Thank you for enlightenment!

DVD Studio Pro. It came with your copy of Final Cut Studio.
You need the movie once and an audio track for each language.
Each button on the menu links to the movie and the appropriate audio track.
The DVD Studio Pro manual explains the procedure in detail. Open it up and get to know the software.

Exporting AVCHD to mp4 from final cut for uploading to youtube (apple prores, .MOV, h264, x264, handbrake)

Hello everybody,
I Edit 1920x1080 AVCHD in Final Cut 7. Working with apple prores to export video to mp4 and then upload it to youtube. The goal is obviously the least quality loss in the process and to get a file as light as possible. Which of these three options is correct?
1. Export to mp4 from Final Cut (using quicktime conversion): h264 codec and bitrate 8000 kbps.
2. Export to .MOV from Final Cut (using quicktime conversion): h264 codec. Then, use handbrake (mp4 / x264 ).
3. Export apple prores sequence to. MOV from Final Cut (using quicktime movie). Then, use handbrake program (mp4 / X264 codec)
thanks a lot!

One friend told me dont choose none of the three options...
Told me about exporting a reference movie from timeline and then take the reference file into compressor.
I finally took the reference file and took him to compressor. I installed x264 and got one .mov very heavy, so I had to use the handbrake to get less weight and get mp4.
I did the same operation in streamclip and got a mp4 file (x264) with same size than .mov (compressor). So in both cases, if I want the less size I have to go on 2 steps (first compressor or streamclip and then handbrake ..)
any more suggestions? :-)

Exporting movie from final cut express4 direct to apple tv

How can I export my completed movie from final cut express 4 to apple tv? This will be my first attempt. I have looked at the forum but cannot find a solution. I am fairly new to computing, (oap)!

Welcome to the  Discussion Forums.
The easiest method would be to export using Quicktime conversion and select the 'movie to Apple tv' option from the resultant dialogue box.

Exporting HD video clips from Final Cut Pro in a format readable from IPad

There are many ways to convert mp4 formatted videos into a file that can be sent to IPad via Itune and be read by IPad. However, my problem is that my videos are in a format 16 x 9 and the IPad screen is near 4 x 3 format and the pictures of my videos are squeezed horizontally.
Which application could help me creating a letter box stype with black bands on top and bottom of the IPad screen so that I can have my 16 x 9 dimension of the picture kept correctly?

Whatever your output from Final Cut, if you open in Quicktime and export or share and select Apple TV (iPad), your video shouldl be exported in a format playable on iPad.

Probably Premiere. Or old FCP7.
