Exporting HD video from FCE
Hi,
What would be the best process from the point of export (in what video format) to actually burning an HD DVD when exporting from FCE 4.0 without losing quality?
I have -
DVDSP 4.0
Compressor 2.0
IDVD 7.0
MacBook Pro Intel
CAn I export a Video captured and assembled in HD to a standard definition so it will fit on a normal >DVD?
Yes.
How to burn to a DVD with chapters etc?
You enter Chapter Markers into an FCE Timeline.
Try a search for details. Here's one;

You have to export the FCE Timeline using File >Export>QuickTime Movie.
If the Timeline is under 2 hours (single side, single layer DVD) it will work in iDVD with the correct settings entered in iDVD
iDVD also has to be configured to accept chapter markers.

Exporting HD video from FCE to iDVD
I'm finishing my first project with Final Cut Express and want to be sure I'm exporting my video correctly for iDVD.
I imported my NTSC 1080i video to FCE using the Apple Intermediate Codec 60-frame interlaced setting. Edited the video and it looks good.
I've rendered the video and mixed down the audio. I then exported a QuickTime reference .mov file and added that to my iDVD project.
When I look at the preview of the movie in iDVD I'm seeing a lot of interlacing lines. Ouch! Will this burn OK or am I in trouble? When I watch the reference movie on my computer it looks fine with no interlacing problem. I'll be making a test burn this evening but the suspense is killing me!
Every reference I've found says to do this just as I've done. Did I miss a step? Is there something else I should do for HD material? Should I use QuickTime Conversion in FCE to make a standard def 16x9 movie and use that for iDVD?
I've made lots of DVDs from HD material in iMovie and never had a problem.
Thanks for your help!Not sure about what settings to use, but wanted to remind you that iDVD has a Save As Disc Image option which creates a virtual DVD on your desktop. You can mount and play this on your Mac just like an actual DVD (using DVD Player). So it's a cheap and precise way of previewing your video in standard DVD format.
You'd Copy the disc image to actual media using Roxio Toast or Apple's Disk Utility. The only differences between the two videos would be the result of viewing on a different monitor/TV, or errors introduced during the copy/burn process (typically bad disks or bad quality disks).

Exporting HD Video From Final Cut Express HD
When attempting to export HD video from Final Cut Express using "uncompressed" setting, I notice that the output quality seems to be limited to "medium." If no compression is used, wouldn't that imply that the video quality should equal original footage?
All FCE Timelines are using the AIC (Apple Intermediate Codec) for HD stuff if you selected the correct Easy Setup before you started your Project.
If you export as a Quicktime Movie then you are getting exactly the same export quality as the Timeline.
The Quicktime Movie can be either Self-Contained or a Reference file. Reference Files are great because they use/reference you exisating captured files on your Scratch Disc, use less space and export fast.
However if you need to play the export somewhere other than your Mac your will require the file to be Self-Contained.
QuickTime Conversion does just that, Converts to whatever you select.

Exported my video from Elements 12 - format mp4 but Powerpoint does NOT recognise the video file. Why?
.wpl appears to be a Windows Media Player playlist. I can find no conversion software for that, and Windows Media Player is not available for Mac anymore.
If you can persuade him to download iTunes and create the playlist as mp3 in a iTunes playlist, or even just burn the base mp3 files to CD as a data disc, that's about the only solutions I can suggest. -
Can't export older videos from iPhoto
Hiya, I hope someone can help me out here.
My wife and I have a few years worth of videos that were taken on digital cameras and were imported into iPhoto. The videos from the past few years were taken on our iPhones, but the older videos were imported from our old digital camera. All of our videos play correctly within iPhoto. But I recently tried to export my videos from iPhoto, and the older videos do not play. They are very short - usually about 10K to 500K, and they are zero length. When you press play they just immediately skip to the end. It's almost like they are a photo. This happens in iMovie and when I try to play the video directly out of the finder.
Now, I did my homework on exporting and made sure to chose 'Original'. And all of the exported videos from the past three years (the iPhone videos) or so work just fine. So I don't think I messed up my iPhoto export somehow. Another interesting wrinkle is that I can choose 'locate in finder' for the older videos and find the movie that way and it plays just fine. These videos in the iPhoto library are also the correct size - 10M or so. So I suppose that if worst comes to worst I can just manually copy every single video. But I'd like for the export process to work.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
JustinIf you want to find all videos/movies very quickly in iPhoto create a Smart Album with the criteria: Photo is Movie.

after exporting a video from imovie, to quicktime, the audio has been duplicated. How can I fix this?
iMovie works best with uncompressed audio. If your track is MP3 or AAC, you may get better results by converting your track to the AIFF format and then using that in iMovie.
You can do this in iTunes. Go to iTunes/Preferences and click the General button. On the General page, click the Import Settings button. Choose IMPORT USING: AIFF ENCODER.
(note: remember what you changed it from so you can change it back later, before you import another CD)
Now, in iTunes, select your track. Then click FILE/CREATE NEW VERSION/AIFF VERSION. -

How do I export a video from After Effects CC to an iPhone? I'm using a PC.
How do I export a video from After Effects CC to an iPhone? I'm using a PC.
Short answer, there is no simple "export to iPhone", but if you just want to have a movie that you can watch on you iPhone, just send yourself an attachment via email (other than .avi) and save it to your phone.
You can also use dropbox as an option.
With an app, you could mount your iPhone as an external drive. (check out iExplorer)
Also: check AME for h264 variations before you send it to yourself. There are presets for iPhone compression. -
Hi people!
We've recently got FCE in work and we are trying to export to flash files but it tells us we don't have the relevant license. Does anyone know what this means? I've scoured the manual and there's nothing about exporting to Flash ( at least I've not found it!)
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks
MattI've only just brought FCE myself but I think that the feature is possibly only available in Final Cut Studio.
I need to save in flash format myself and with a little searching found VisualHub, it is available from the 'Downloads' page on the apple site. From reading the spiel it will convert the file that is created from FCE to any number of formats including .flv
Not sure if it works yet since while I've downloaded the program I haven't actually got a video to try it on right now.
Hope this helps and I'd certainly like to know how you get on since I need to convert to flash myself.
If I'm wrong about the feature only being available in Final Cut Studio I'm sure someone who is more experienced with FCE can point you in the right direction. -
Exporting to Quicktime from FCE
Here's hoping one of the more experienced members of this forum can guide me with answers to two questions please.
I shoot and edit 16:9 SD (as opposed to HD) and I have Quicktime Pro. My films are about 3 minutes long.
When I Export as Quicktime, the file is quite large, the quality seems good, but the format switches to 4:3 with the images all tall and thin.
** Is there a way I can export to Quicktime and preserve the 16:9 format?*
When I Export as Quicktime Conversion, I can preserve the 16:9 format. But the file is smaller and even the highest settings are not particularly good quality. Sometimes this is OK if I want to upload it to Vimeo or similar site, but it takes me two steps to get this 16:9 into a 4:3 ratio. (There is an option to switch to 4:3 by letterboxing, cropping or fit within frame - but this doesn't work in one pass from the FCE project). I have to export it as a 16:9 Quicktime Movie, open this in Quicktime Pro, and then re-export it in the 4:3 format using either letterboxing or cropping etc.
** Is there a way I can go from FCE to a letterboxed 4:3 file which is small enough to upload yet still looks good.*
Phew - long question. I hope it makes sense. After many years working with Avid I'm just entering the Final Cut world.
thanks
Simon

1) Open your exported Quicktime movie in QuickTime Pro.
2) Go to Window/Show Movie Properties.
3) Click on "Video Track", then "Visual Settings."
4) Deselect "Preserve Aspect Ratio". In the "Scaled Size" box, type in a width of "853" pixels for NTSC or 1024 for PAL. Leave the height at 480.
