Exporting Slide Movies to Final Cut Pro - always become fuzzy?

I've recorded a voiceover to accompany a slideshow I've produced - but it became too hard to organize the timing of the voice over with each specific movement and fade of each element in each slide.
So I exported the slide as a full size, uncompressed quicktime movie for each slide - I then imported them into FinalCut so I could cut up and manipulate the timing of each element easier to the voiceover - however every time I drag one of the movies into the timeline it becomes blurry - clearly not the proper resolution.
Anyone have any advice on this? Or is there a better Mac program out there that makes it easier to sync title and graphic movements - to a voiceover?

thats not an option, re-recording and rushing the speaker to match every fade and point is just too time consuming.
i suppose this is a final cut issue? I export a FULL REZ, FULL QUALITY movie from Keynote, the the quality just drops significantly in Final Cut when its on the viewer or exported out.

  • How to export iphoto 'movie' to final cut pro

    I am a novice to iPhoto, but use Final Cut for movies. Is there a way to create a slideshow in iPhoto and then export that into a file suitable for importing into FCP?

    I know that a slideshow created in iPhoto and exported to QT will import into Final Cut Express. So I'm guessing you can do the same with FCP.
    If FCP likes other formats better to work with then what comes to mind is to take the iPhoto movie in QT Pro and save it to a format that FCP likes better than .mov files. Again, I'm only guessing here as I don't use my FCE much at all.

  • How to export a movie from Final Cut Pro X?

    Hi There,
    I've been away from FCP for a while using Premier but I have an FCPX project that I need to export a preview from.
    I've tried "Sharing" a YouTube movie but it wants an account so I tried using "Apple Devices 1080p". But I get no dialogue to save it and no feedback that anything is happening - nor do I know where FCPX actually saved it (assuming it exported it).
    I also tried adding a new sharing destination but none of the destination options make sense - rather I didn't see anything I wanted to share to (DVD, BluRay etc).
    I'm currently downloading the PDF manual but this seems like such a basic thing to want to do that I'm pretty sure I'm missing something simple - so thought I'd post here.
    Put simply, how do I export a preview file to my desktop?

    Or just export an H.264, which PC's can play back just fine, especially via the web.  I've never had issues with my clients.

    You can do H.264 direcly out of FCP X without going to compressor.  You'll need to purchase "Flip4Mac" to export WMV files, which I rarely have to use for my PC clients.  You can create a Bundle in your Share preferences to do it all in one operation, too.

  • How do I export a project from Final Cut Pro onto my desktop?

    How do I export a project from Final Cut Pro to my desktop as a movie?

    Can anyone please help me.. when I click on my timeline in my project library and try to export movie nothing happens! and when I  try to "share" to youtube I get an error message stating that it cannot be exported because it contains "no video"... The 4 minute music video that I've created with shots off my Canon T2i looks and plays great....If I uploaded the videos into Final Cut but did not save them on my desktop or anywhere else on the Mac would this be a reason to get this message? I have never experienced this before...the only option under "share" that works is "email"

    I have edited a movie in Final Cut Pro and the video has been smooth all the time.
    Now, when the one hour long movie is ready the video seem to paus every 5 sec (only for half a second). It does it all the way through the movies.
    What is wrong? All the sudden.

    We need info, info, info!
    What version of FCP X?
    Did you render? what are the project specs? do you use many compound clips? how much ram, hard drive space, how is the hard drive connected?
    It looks like your mac can't keep up. Maybe the bottleneck is the hard drive, or something else.
    Try exporting a master file and see if the video is ok.
    Also, keep Activity Monitor open and see how much memory pressure you've got.

  • Cannot export to Compressor from Final Cut Pro 5.1

    This message shows up "A file of this name already existed" when I export to Compressor from final Cut Pro 5.1

    I have almost the same problem. When I export a file directly from Final Cut Pro 5.1, the application crashes. Have you had any answer?
    Please reply.

  • I have an hd movie on final cut pro x; i want to create an sd disk of that movie. compressor created 2 files: dolby.... and mpeg2. How do I get these files burned to disc to create my sd movie?

    I have an hd movie on final cut pro x; i want to create an sd disk of that movie. compressor created 2 files: dolby.... and mpeg2. How do I get these files burned to disc to create my sd movie?

    These are elementary streams and they would be used by DVD authoring apps that use them for reasons like foreign language capability. Examples would be DVD Studio Pro, Adobe Encore, Toast.
    The most straightforward way to burn your DVD is either to use the Share feature in FCP or the Batch Template feature in Compressor.
    If you can find a boxed copy of iLife (try Amazon), it should have iDVD as part of the suite of apps. iDVD offers far more complete authoring capability than FCP or C4. iDVD  doesn't work with elementary streams; you'd just drag in your HD movie and you'd be good to go.
    Good lluck.

  • How do I import or export iLife music into Final Cut Pro 7. Thanks

    How do I import or export iLife music into Final Cut Pro 7? Thanks.

    Locate the .caf file you want to use in FCP in the Finder.  Normally, iLife sound files will be in Macintosh HD/Library/Audio/Apple Loops/Apple/iLife Sound Effects/(subfolder).
    Open the file on SoundTrack Pro, the go to File->Save a Copy As.  In the Save As window that will open, navigate to where you want to save the file, then near the bottom of that window, use the drop-down File Format menu to choose AIFF.  Set the bit depth to 16-Bit Integer and the Sampling Rate to 48000 hz.
    Import the resulting AIFF file into your FCP project.

  • When i try to play a movie in final cut pro it comes out black

    Open the movie in the QuickTime player and report exactly what it says in the movie inpstecor. It's probably not in a spce that FCP supports.

  • I made a movie in Final Cut Pro, it is about an hour long. Now that I am finished with the editing, I need to export it. However when I go to export ("Share", then "Export Using Compressor...") nothing happens.

    This movie is for a TV show, and this problem is very urgent. Help Please.

    I am having a similar problem.  I cannot export a 4 min. video of to imov or DVD, Youtube, ext. under Share.   Under imov. it takes about 3 hrs to finish then I get a message File Cannot Be Opened.  It leaves and imov icon  but when I select it, a message reads File May Be Damaged.  Under DVD it says The File Is To Large For Disk.
    If I need to reinstall Final Cut Pro X how do I go about doing that?
    Thanks

  • What compression to use when Exporting HD video from final cut pro PAL setting

    Hi there
    I'm trying to export my HD video from Final cut Pro so that I can edit it in DVD studio Pro. I initially exported it on H.264 setting however it then gives me the message 'NTSC assets cannot be imported into PAL projects' It was edited with PAL setting so I think it must be the conversion but i'm not sure which option to use.....been really struggling to get the 1 hour footage under 4.5gb without losing too much quality...
    Any advice greatly appreciated!
    thanks

    Just to add two suggestions.
    1) Consider putting your four movies on two disks.
    2) Bring your movies into Compressor and duplicate the stock DVD setting. In the Encoding pane of the Inspector, select a CBR and dial it back to around 6.2 to 6.5 Mbs. In Preview mark a small section and submit; you'll get 2 elementary streams, with m2v and AC3 extensions. Bring that into DVDSP and evaluate results. Adjust as necessary. (This is to avoid waiting out very long encodes and then having to start again from scratch if you get disappointing results.)

  • Import movie from final cut pro x in pinnacle studio ?

    today i make movies with pinnacle studio (windows)
    i have pc with blu ray burner in pc (built in)
    i would like to buy mac with final cut pro x
    is it possible to make movie (high definition) in finacl cut pro x and export to a format which can be imported in pinnacle studio (version 14) without loss of quality
    then i would like to burn blu ray on my pc with pinnacle studio
    so : make movie with mac and burn HD movie on pc ?

    It'd be easier to get Toast 11 Pro and author/burn Blu Ray on your Mac.
    BUT, that's extra money you may not want to spend.
    Pinnecle, does it import XML files?  Well, that may not work anyway.
    You'll have to export a QT movie in FCP X that Pinnacle will read.

  • 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.
