Fcp 7 project through compressor 3.5 or share re: creating blu ray disc

Am I missing something but it seems you can't send a fcp project to compressor 3.5 via the "send to" option as there isn't any appropriate settings for blu ray, only HD DVD.
But you can through the share option. Is that the case or am I just getting too old for all this new high tech stuff??

Hi iamfrustrated
I'll have to tell you I don't have much experience with compressor, I've been using Episode to transcode my DVD files and Encore to author my DVD's and I am just getting started with burning Blu-ray. But I would think you could simply burn a Blu-ray disc image to your hard drive from within compressor and then even use toast if you want to turn make additional copies. Is that perceivable?

  • Adobe Premier Elements 12 - Exporting trimmed AVCHD files from the project timeline, to a separate folder for burning to Blu Ray disc with other software?

    Hi, can anyone help please.  This is the first time I have used this forum.
    I use Premier Elements 12, a PC, 64 Bit, Windows 7, high powered computer.
    Just started trimming AVCHD in this software.
    I would like to know if it is possible to export trimmed AVCHD files to a folder elsewhere (files which were originally imported into the project timeline), so that I can burn the trimmed AVCHD files (not in 'Project' form)  to Blu Ray disc (using another software which I know that works to burn video files to Blu Ray disc).

    Thanks for the update. Your progress sounds very good.
    Premiere Elements 11, 12, and 13 are similar. But, version 13 has significant feature removals and a new Elements Organizer.
    So, when viewing or reading tutorials, try to determine the version of the program being used for the tutorials. As I typically write
    principles tend to remain the same from version to version, but the features tend to move, change, or be discontinued from version
    to version. And, it is frustrating to be armed with principles when you cannot find a feature.

  • Best way to copy FCP-created Blu-ray Disc?

    Tried using FCP7 to burn another copy of a Blu-ray disc a week after I burned the first copy. But since I didn't want to wait 16 hours for FCP to encode the Blu-ray files again, I copied the files off the first Blu-ray Disc I'd burned onto my desktop. Then, I inserted a blank Blu-ray Disc into my external burner and copied the desktop files onto it.
    The new disc burned with those files ... but when I play it back in my Blu-ray player, there's no audio. Any ideas??

    Try making a disk image from your original disc, then burning from that.
    1. Insert your disc and launch Disk Utility.
    2. Select your optical drive in Disk Utility.
    3. Choose File > New > Disk Image from<disk name>.
    4. Choose DVD/CD Master, press OK, and wait.
    5. Select your new image on the left, then press Burn in the toolbar.
    Not sure if this process has changed for Blu-ray but I suspect not. The disk format for DVD and Blu-ray is UDF (not FAT32 or HFS+ which you get from a standard Finder burn).

  • Creating Blu ray disc using FCP

    I'm curious to know how people are creating a data file for a Blu Ray Disc that use FCP? i.e Toast w/ a third party burner.
    Thanks

    Will you be using Encore or Toast to encode the video file?
    In either you should start a video file exported as self contained current settings from FCP, and encode that to either h.264 blu ray mpeg2 HD in the settings of either Encore or Toast.
    What are your sequence settings in FCP?

  • Instructions: Create Blu-Ray disc in Compressor with Final Cut TImeline

    I searched mightily for simple instructions on how to do this. The Compressor help files are woefully inadequate in providing a simple walkthrough to do this. Burning a Blu-ray directly from Final Cut does not allow one to optimize the conversion like compressor does. So:
    1) Right click your chosen sequence in Final Cut
    2) Click "Share" The Share dialog box will come up.
    3) Choose "Blu-Ray" in the destination drop down in the top-left corner of the Share window (don't forget to choose the destination location of the files at the top of the dialog)
    4) Click "Send to Compressor" in the bottom-left corner
    Compressor will open and a job will automatically be created with Blu-ray video
    and Dolby ac3 audio. Set options and submit as usual in Compressor

    The send to compressor option occasionally creates problems. Most people would recommend exporting as a self-contained movie, then bringing that into compressor and using your workflow from there.

  • Share FCPX with Blu-ray  USB3 LaCie writer boot error

    Hi
    I've been around the bush and back looking at how to burn a blu-ray movie to a disc from FCPX and a slim Blu-ray LaCie drive.  I was able to burn a 5 minute movie from FCPX without any trouble but as soon as I try and burn something larger (like an 11gig movie) 1080 HD I get up in the morning to find an error referring to boot directory or something with a boot in it. Sorry can't be more secific than that.  It's costing me everytime it goes wrong. 
    I logged a job with LaCie and they said any disc is compaitble so i'm wondering whether there is an issue with Final Cut Pro X ?  Thank you for any assistance. 
    Mike

    OK, I have FCPX. I burned DVDs etc all fine. I then burn a Blu-ray.  Initially I tried to save to hard drive and burn from there but that didn't work.  Seeing FCPX can burn directly to optical device (LaCie) I tried that (share menu in FCP) I got a boot error message that I didn't take a note of.  Today I tried again after I checked a few things out.  I put in my BD-R disc into the device.  FCPX says it is "finishing create blu-ray disc: burning Blu-ray"
    at 85% it then said Insert Disc, i did this and it is hanging. 
    I have been able to burn a 5 mintue Blu-ray sucessfully but as soon as I get to a 55 minute movie I have been unsuccessful.  Layers are automatic.  speed is automatic, it's a brand new mac running OS X 10.8.2    The guy I bought the discs from reccomends Roxio but why should I buy new software when FCPX says it burns.

  • Error MessageDuring Creation of Blu-ray Disc in FCP and Compressor 3.5

    Yesterday I spent more than 7 hours trying to create and burn a Blu-ray disc (actually an AVCHD disc on DVD-5 media) in both FCP 7 and Compressor 3.5. In every case, disc creation would go to completion of the encoding of the video and audio files, but when I was asked to insert a disk, I would do so and the disc would spin for about 30 seconds and then I would get the following error message: "There was an error burning your disc. The bit rate exceeded the maximum allowable." This message cannot be a correct description of the problem because I used the Blu-ray template that Apple provides in FCP 7 and Compressor 3.5 to create my disc. This template limits the bit rate to a maximum of 15 mbs and my video was only 15 minutes in length.
    Additional information as follows: I am using an Early 2008 Mac Pro 8-core. I have Final Cut Studio 3 installed with all of the latest updates. I am running Snow Leopard 10.6.4 (latest updates all installed),and I have experienced no other problems with FCP 7 or Compressor 3.5. My Mac Pro's internal superdrive is functioning fine, and in fact, I eventually took my FCP7 project and rendered it to a QT reference movie and used that in Adobe's Encore CS5 to burn and AVCHD disc using the same internal DVD burner on my Mac Pro and it worked perfectly.
    I am seeking any suggestions for how to address the problem (whatever it is) that gives this error message. Would you recommend a reinstall of the applications in Final Cut Studio 3? Other suggestions? Has anyone seen this error message when trying to burn Blu-ray or AVCHD discs from FCP 7 or Compressor 3.5?
    Thank you in advance for your help.
    Tom

    Guys,
    I am deeply appreciative of all of the suggestions and help received on this issue. I apologize for not responding sooner, but i have been looking at the problem described in this thread from numerous perspectives.
    Jeremy, you may well have hit upon the solution, and I am trying your suggestion now. I did not realize that when you selected the Blu-ray template and directed it to a DVD burner that would make an AVCHD that you could alter the bit rate settings. I looked at the default bit rate that Apple sets when you select this template and I found that it allowed a maximum of slightly over 17 MBs and an average of 15 MBs. That is too high for an AVCHD disk, and thus the error message that I am getting may well be correct and not in error as I previously thought.
    I have found that I prepared Blu-ray AVCHD disk as recently as late April with no problems so I don't know why I have not run into this problem of too high a bit rate before, but I had not. It may be that I used a Custom Present that I prepared and set my own bit rate for those disks.
    In any case, I am trying a run now where I have set the bit rate to a maximum of 15 and an average of 13. We shall see if that still produces the error message. I shall post my results when I know them.
    Again, thanks to all of you for your fine help.

  • Ripple Training Video says I can "Share" (export) to Blu-Ray (PS3)

    I'm successfully exporting HD video from Final Cut Pro 7.0 to MP4 H.264 for streaming on PS3. As you know, this workflow locks up Final Cut Pro until it's done. Then I serve the video using PS3 Media Server.
    I'd prefer to use Compressor to handle this in the background - and with more processor utilization - but I have had no luck getting my PS3 to see the file when it's complete.
    The issue seems to be that Compressor creates mutually exclusive *.264 video as well as an .ac3 audio files which the PS3 does not recognize - nor does Quicktime, MPEG Streamclip, or anything else I've tried.
    Of particular interest is the tutorial listed in the link:
    http://www.rippletraining.com/provideoapps.html
    Click the last Final Cut Pro video "Output to Blu-Ray"
    He mentions his client would like to watch on their PS3 and conveniently skips over how to do that.
    Am I missing a step?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi. Thank you for taking time to reply.
    Watch the tutorial to see what I mean. Have you tried to create a file for Blu-Ray /PS3 using the "Share..." option in FCP and get it to work?
    What the guy says in the tutorial is "My producers would like to watch this HD show before it's broadcast....since my producers want to watch their episode on their Playstation 3's, let's choose Blu-Ray." Then he goes on a slight tangent and talks about making a Blu-Ray Disc. Each option appears to basically create the h264 and AC3 files. He doesn't mention muxing the two files. That's where I got mixed up. I've figured it out.
    I don't have to use Medialink. I own it but "PS3 Media Server" functionality blows it out of the water. You might like to try it out.

  • If there ever was a NEW update for iMovie, will iMovie have the ability to burn projects onto a Blu-Ray disc so that customers don't have to pay for additional software like Final Cut Pro or Roxio Toast Titanium/Pro?

    It would be helpful for those who are familier with iMovie to use Blu-Ray discs for burning and playing back their iMovie projects in HD. However, iMovie '11 doesn't have that special feature yet. I hear that 'Final Cut Pro X,' 'Roxio Toast 11 Titanium' and 'Roxio Toast 11 Pro' can copy projects like iMovie onto Blu-Ray, but it would take long periods of time to do that. Professional software, like FCP X and Toast, can be pricey.
    I'm hoping that iMovie '11 will burn projects onto Blu-Ray, but will that ever come true?

    Will iBlu-Ray be an upgrade? OR and update of iDVD?
    If it's an upgrade, then that means you'd still pay for it from the Mac App Store. I wish it would only cost between $20-40.
    If it's a free update of iDVD, but with the new name, that would be better than to go out and pay for things!!!
    However, external Blu-ray recorders would still be required if you were going to burn an iMovie project onto a blu-ray disc.
    Is there a way to put in a request for 'iBlu-Ray?'

  • Is it possible to write 2 different project on one blu ray disc?

    I have about 23 Gb project of stills photos and still cameras video clips. But I also have some additional footage on hd from an hd  video camera.
    My blu ray disc are all 50 gb and I wonder if I could  add a second project to the disc and how to go about it, as well as if it is possible how I'll create menu/s to get it working.
    I posed the question in quite a few places but it does not return any relevant answer.
    I have not worked with blu ray before but since the writers are much cheaper it became affordable for me and I got an external usb Samsung writer.
    Window 7 recognises it but Encore (CS 4) does not -  anyway I found out it's probably better to use the "folder" option than the disc. I have created a rewritable BD using the image (iso) option with "imgburn". and although it stopped at 75% I was surprised that the BD plays with the complete project and no problem! (my rewritable is only 25Gb) so I can't experiment with with these particular projects.)     Thank you

    My try does not seem so lucky
    I added to my earlier succesful BR project 2 more time lines. On one I had video clips from several still cameras (2 panasonic and one Nikon) and on the other timeline, my .mts clips from my hd Everio video cam.
    The Encore projects was previewing well and did not return any error (pre building).
    I output the encoding to a folder and followed the imgburn well detailled instruction to burn to a folder,  i found them on the net and they were very well explained and my burning went exactly through the same steps explained.
    so the procedure progressed over a few hours (it showed the size of 25.5 GB) When it was complete the disk was ejected with a message that it could not be shut again and this happens with slim external drives or Laptops. 
    I'm not sure what is going on now, but when I put the disk in my entertainment player It asked me If I want copy or format the disk and it won't play.
    As this is the second time it happens I put it back in my BR writer, and like the first time It's going threw (I think), a "miscompares" check.
    Now it's through 40% and not showing any error, but i seem to remember that I clicked "Yes" to ignore "miscompare"
    So I don't really know what is going on, this is almost like 15 hours the process has been on (including the retry).
    The BD-RE (50gb DL) is the same colour as the new one I have not idea if anything is written on it.
    My first successful project was only animated stills with sound track added to it and burnt onto a rewritable 25 gb BR.
    Well any help will be welcome:)

  • Workflow asked: 70min hd project (PAL 1080i50)to blue ray disc with toast 11

    i tried to render a final cut Pro HD project (PAL 1080i50) into a blue ray disc with toast 11.
    At the end camera pans juddered in a fast rhythm
    My steps are:
    build a HD timeline in FCP
    export timeline to a quicktime movie
    load the quicktime movie in Toast 11
    toast dit convert the qtm-file again
    and burned the blue ray with the result described above.
    Thanks for answers

    Please examine my workflow. Perhaps you quickly find out any error:
    footage: PAL 1080i50 field order : lower field
    70 minutes sequence: the same options
    exported timeline into a Quicktime Movie - same option
    loaded the resulting QTM into Toast 11
    Tost started to rerender during 2 hours and burned blue ray disc
    at last
    medium: verbatim double layer blue-ray disc
    Player: tested on two Philips blue ray players
    Result
    on tv-screen (hd flat screen philips) camera pans judder in a regular rhythm, perhaps twice in a second: the actor seems making little jumps when he walks silently from the right to the left or vice versa.
    earlyer we tried to burn a blue ray disc directly from FCP 7.0.3 by using the option "send to blue ray"
    The result was the same.

  • Cant get anything to render from FCP X through Compressor

    Everything I send from FCP to Compressor gives the error 2045 after rendering.
    Can anyone help?

    You're using Compressor 4 right?
    I think there was and issue with the FX Factory plugin.  You can look in Library/Plugins.  If you see it just remove it and try again.
    You can also try exporting from FCPX to ProRes and manually running the ProRes file through compressor.  See if you get the same error.
    I think 2045 is just a generic compressor failed code.  Unless someone know what it means.

  • No Chapter markers in share - DVD or blu ray?????

    Hi there,
    Latest version of Lion and FCX.
    I burned my 1st blu ray for a client last night (wuhoo!). It looks great.  Outstanding actually.  Used a Matrox CompressHD card to compress the H.264.
    But I noticed no chapter markers present.
    Thinking it was the matrox card, I did some investigation.
    Turns out that chapter markers are 'apparently', NOT transferred during the share feature??!??!  It doesn't matter what I use for compression - markers simply don't transfer from FCX to Compressor 4!?!?!
    Maybe I did something wrong - I'm just learning FCX after using FCP for years.
    I had to re-create the chapters in Compressor 4.
    Is that the way to have chapter markers carry across?
    If so, that is simply one of the most asinine decisions about this product.  Forget all the hassles about not importing previous projects etc.. as that is a different issue, but discontinuing one of the most basic features from the previous product is just ridiculous.
    Can anyone confirm the chapter marker workflow?  Again, it could be me doing something wrong, but I have a funny (and SAD!) feeling I'm not...
    Cheers,
    Keebler

    No, you're not doing something wrong, chapter markers are a glaring omission from FCP X but apparently, Apple sees no future in DVD or even Blu Ray, so we're stuck with using Compressor or some other application to add chapter markers.
    Fortunately, this is very simple if you list the timecode (each on separate lines in a text file) where you want the chapter markers to be - Compressor will import them and the markers appear automatically.
    I agree with you though - it's pretty lame.

  • New project to DVD works fine, but sharing to a Blu ray fails, with a error message "video rendering error 60."  What is that and how do I fix it?

    getting an error message "video rendering error 60" when burning a new final cut pro project to Blu ray.  Burning to regular DVD works fine.  I have burned many other projects successfully to blu ray.  What is this message and how do I fix it?

    If this same timeline can be exported to other file formats and can be shared successfully to DVD, possibly it's the longer render time in the Blu Ray processing that is the problem. In the Finder in Applications, right click Final Cut Pro dot app, choose Get Info and verify that Prevent App Nap is checked. If it isn't, check it and try again.

  • Encore 5.1 on OS 10.5.8 burns Blu-ray discs but crashes on DVD build of same project

    I've spent a few weeks creating a dual-layered Blu-ray Disc with 20 menus and 44 timelines ranging in length from 9 seconds to 18 minutes.
    The end product will be a dual pack containing both the replicated Blu-ray Disc and DVD.
    I pre-transcoded both the BD and DVD and linked the assets appropriately. The Blu-ray Disc builds correctly and seems to not have any issues.
    When I try to output to DVD Encore crashes almost immediately. I've also tried to save just a DVD image and it crashes in the same place.
    I don't really want to recreate this entire program in DVDSP but that is my plan.
    Any other ideas would be appreciated.
    Thanks!

    So I fixed the issue by deleting all the ac3 and m4v (including the linked m2v) files out of the timlines ans replacing with the orginal Self-Contained Reference Movies from FCP7. Then I let Encore transcode and build overnight, presto in the morning one working DVD.
    Now I just need to transcode again for Blu-ray or revert to a backup...
