FCP export settings ratio gone wild please help.
Any edit i decide to export turns out like this:
shaped in a black box.
i understand that the 16:9 ratio has the letterbox, but why the left and right side lines?
For picture example, see here:
https://discussions.apple.com/message/15653584#15653584
I cant change it, it's getting annoying, something has happened and I dont know how to change it back.
I have tried changing the settings during the expor save config,
i have tried easy setup settings,
settings for FCP - but the exported video always comes out in a box now.
i have tried them all, and set them to really weird things,
i have messed it up and I dont know what to do......
is there a way to change FCP settings back to default?
Erase a FCP cache?
I dont know, please help.

Final Cut Pro rule number one: The Sequence settings must match the characteristics of your source footage.
You can't just drop any old video into a particular setup and expect it to work.

Not an idiot. A twerp, maybe.

This is what we are trying to explain. It's complicated stuff, this video business.
Once, I bought a camera. The salesman offered me a copy of some Windows editing software for free. I don't remember what it was called, but it said "Be your own director!" on the box in ComicSans font. I lost my temper and now sit in prison as a result, which is why I can't do FaceTime with you. Also, I am only allowed one phone call per month and my mother misses me.
Yes. I am an FCP wizard.

Hello everyone, im using iphone 4, my problem is that i cant update my iphone from 5.0.1 to 5.1.1 while using software update in settings on my iphone please help......
Downgrading to a previous version of iOS is not supported.
Sounds like your iPhone was hacked/modified/jailbroken to work
with wireless carrier other than the one it was purchased from. The
update has relocked it to the original carrier. Contact the original
carrier to see if they offer unlocking and if you qualify - only the
carrier to which the iPhone is locked can unlock it.
What does it say when you look at Settings=>General=>Carrier?
Be advised that the previous modifications to change from original carrier
to your local Carrier may have rendered the iPhone unable to be
officially unlocked. -
Windows 7 Screen Resolution not changing at all when I try to change settings. I ve lost my ToolBar on internet for settings ( deletion of cache) Please help me to reset screen. The screen seems to have slipped or moved to the right. Only icons on left of
screen showing. I Need to regain The right side of the scree
I have tried everything I know to sort this out. Thankyou you in advance. Katy Nanna xHi,
When you set your monitor to a screen resolution that it won't support, the screen will go black for a few seconds while the monitor reverts back to the original resolution.
Regarding screen resolution, we may follow the below two articles to change it:
Change your screen resolution
Getting the best display on your monitor
Follow the steps below:
1. Open Screen Resolution by clicking the Start button, clicking
Control Panel, and then, under Appearance and Personalization, clicking Adjust screen resolution.
2.Click the drop-down list next to Resolution. Check for the resolution marked (recommended). This is your LCD monitor's native resolution—usually the highest resolution your monitor can support.
And if the monitor is LCD monitor, The monitor's manufacturer or reseller should also be able to tell you the native resolution for your LCD monitor. Or we may check the monitor's manual to adjust.

I have been edited a project for weeks. Today, a few minutes after opening the project to work on it again, my computer shut down abnormally. The timeline disappeared. All the media is still in the project but my edited timeline is gone. Please help!
You have 10.6 on that machine, I suggest you stick with it for performance, third party hardware and software reasons as long as possible.
Consider 10.8 (not 10.7) when it's released, because 10.7 and 10.8 will require a new investment in software and newer third party hardware as it requires newer drivers the old machines won't have. (forced upgrade because of software, really nice of them)

Export DVCPROHD 720p Under 500MB - Please Help Me! :(
Hey guys,
Im new to this community but I have a question that has been killing me all night. I have done export after export after export and still, to no avail have i ended at a solution.
Here is the deal:
I have exported several movies from Final Cut Pro and uploaded them to Vimeo.com in HD and everything has been fine, smooth, and effortless for the most part. When I choose the option File > Export > Quicktime Movie it usually takes under 2 minutes, and creates a self contained movie on my desktop. Problem is this file is 2GB and sometimes wont play on other peoples computers, or macs. Possibly something to do with a final cut setting, not sure.
But here is my problem, I usually go File > Export > Export using quicktime Conversion. I leave the settings as they are, never touch them and just save it to the desktop. It finishes a few minutes later and I have my file, 1280 X 720 resolution, H.264 and there is another codec that reads DVCPROHD 720p. I recently exported an interview I shot the EXACT same way without changing anything accept it seems to be missing this DVCPROHD 720p codec when I check out the file settings..
If i open up the other videos that worked, the settings are pretty m3.06 Ghz uch exactly the same, but they have the "DVCPROHD 720p" codec thing. All the exports I have tried in the last 5 hours don't.. Unless its a 2GB file. The first movies I made were easily as long as my interview and not nearly as big in size.
Im stuck. I have no idea what I'm doing wrong or how to include this codec, or how to export this so its under 500 mb with the dvcprohd thing.
Please help? If anyone actually understood that..A file uses only one codec, never two. So your files are either DVCPROHD or h264
(or somthing else), but not both.
What codec is your FCP sequence (select the sequence and type command-0)?
DVCPROHD is a better quality codec, might take less time to encode
(depending on your FCP sequence settting) and is medium sized.
h264 is a very high-quality codec for web-delivery, takes a LONG time to encode,
and results in small files.
Export > Quicktime Movie (using currrent settings, and self-contained)
will use the same codec as your sequence. This is the fastest export.
Export > Export using quicktime Conversion will permit you to make a
lot of choices (and maybe a lot of mistakes). It defaults to h264. -
FCP export settings for import in iMovie '08
Q: What QT/ Compressor export settings do I need to use in FCP in order to be able to import the MOV file in iLife '08?
The reason for using iLife '08 is solely for sharing the movie to dotMac.
(if you know alternatives bypassing iMovie '08 ... be my guest).
Background:
I create my footage with a Sony HDR-HC7.
I capture the footage on my Macs (G5 and MBP) via FCP.
I edit my sequence in FCP using the HDV sequence presets
I output using FCP export to Quicktime. MOV file has HDV properties.
Funny: the captured MOV file with HDV properties can be read by iMovie '08 , the edited sequence with exactly the same HDV properties can not be read by iMovie '08 .
I tried a Compressor conversion to:
- Apple preset iTV --> no import
- Apple preset iPod video --> no import
- Apple preset m2v and m4v --> both no import
- Apple preset mp4 --> no import
iLife help mentiones that it accepts DV, mp4 and some MOV formats.
Q: what is the list of "some"
Please help.
CoenQ: What QT/ Compressor export settings do I need to use in FCP in order to be able to import the MOV file in iLife '08?
Don't have FCP v5/6 but with older FCP/FCE usually use AIC for crossover in MOV file container.
iLife help mentiones that it accepts DV, mp4 and some MOV formats.
Q: what is the list of "some"
I have personally used DV, AIC, MJPEG, MPEG4, H.264 and i believe Photo-JPEG with which another individual indicated he was having problems. As to audio for these files, usually use DV, Linear PCM ("Big Endian" Integer), AAC, or even uncompressed. Avoid Apple Animation and Apple Video compression formats which will import/edit but will not correctly export. However, be advised that there are some caveats. E.g., a "Large or Full" slideshow export from iPhoto places the MPEG4/AAC data in an MOV file container which iMovie '08 will not import. However, if you use the MPEG Streamclip "Save As..." File menu option to save the same data in an MP4 file container. Therefore, would say that some problems here may be associated with iMovie '08 "pre-scanning" of files and possible minor bugs in proper error trapping on compression formats vs file containers. -
I am trying to export my enhanced podcast through garageband. I have all the current updates. I am on my MacBookPro 10.6.8 2.3GHz with 8GB ram. My enhanced podcast (podcast with pictures) is about 80 mins long and I have tried exporting with everything from the lowest settings to the highest always with the same result. I have tried deleting GB preferences. I have tried repairing permissions to no avail.
I hit export to disk or send to itunes.
I select some AAC format I want (optimized for spoken podcast).
It slowly builds the mix, normalizes, and creates chapters (yeah, it goes through the creating chapters bar to completion)
Then it goes all candystripe on the creating chapters bar once it fills up and will hang forever (hung for 8 hours....pretty much sounds like 'forever' in my book).
Please help...I have my podcast sitting there waiting to be used....I have tried exporting smaller chunks (by moving the end of file bar) but that doesn't work either. Is there a way to just send the pictures and the picture start times over to imovie and work with it there? I'd much rather work with the tools that imovie has but man that program is just a PITA to use when you want to run through 100+ pictures for variable durations (whereas it's easy to just drag and drop with garageband as you do playback).
The file only has one stereo audio track!Hi notmatthew, I have exactly the same problem as you. I am trying to export a podcast about iPod X Anniversary so I need to publish it next sunday.
It's midnight in Spain but tomorrow I will tray something I read in other post:
w4b3l said:
Problem solved.
I deleted the chapters one by one, exporting it each time, until it worked. i then replaced the image (which was a .jpg and i converted to .png) with that chapter and now it works.
Could you try it? -

Converting a FCP sequence to Windows Media File - please help!
Hi fellow mac users, please help if you can would mean the world to me! I'm trying to export an edited sequence (32mins in length) from FCP 5 using Quicktime conversion to a Windows Media File. Although I'm able to launch the process successfully, it just seems to convert the very first minute or two and not the entire thing! I'm not well versed in these technical issues, so have no clue how to figure this out. I've even tried in vain to compress the sequence first, import into FCP and then try to export as WM but no luck. My boss is away and client is pushing and I'm stressing!
So if you can help, that would be fantastic!
many thanks in advance.Cleaner and Sorenson are huge and complex transcoders. You just need time and a credit card to download and then lots of time to experiment and figure out the quirks of each application. You do not have this time. Telestream offers a competitor called Episode. it's cool.
Get the full version of telestream's flip4Mac (if it was installed properly you can do this with a click on the system prerf panel for flip4mac). You will need a credit card. Be prepared for a very long transcode to WMP, even on a big Macintosh. I don't think you have the time for any of this nonsense.

Tried to restore Toshiba Satellite L300D to factory settings... PLEASE HELP.
MODEL NO: PSLC8C-04401R
Hi guys,
I tried to reset my laptop to factory settings and a whole mess followed. My laptop did not come with recovery discs, and I'm in the process of getting a Vista installation and recovery discs now.
So long story short, I was trying to reset the laptop (which was working perfectly fine) so I could transfer files over from another laptop, which I have on an external hard drive.
After I tried to perform the reset (holding 0 on startup and following the prompts), I got this error right before it finished:
10-FC12-045D click OK to restart.
I click okay, and Vista is gone, everything is gone and I can't get out of BIOS. I tried connecting the external harddrive and booting from that, nothing. Booting from a CD, nothing. Booting from the HDD does nothing. It was working fine before I tried to reset to factory.
Right now on the screen its giving me prompts to insert the Windows installation disc and restart my computer, but I'm already assuming this will do nothing.
Please help, I'm out of ideas. This laptop is meant to be for my mother and I feel bad that I killed it.
-T
EDIT: I just tried the Vista installation disc, and the computer isn't doing anything. It's still giving me the Boot Manager menu telling me to insert the installation disc and restart.
EDIT 2: I started over, tried to run the Vista Recovery CD, and I'm getting this error in BIOS:
Phoenix Phlash16 Error
Could not find BCP DMI block in BIOS ROM file image
PRESS ANY KEY TO CONTINUEHi! I can not find your model number, which can be found on the bottom of your lap top. I think I'm understanding you. You wanted a fresh start of Vista, so you tried to restore back to factory. That failed and now every thing is gone?? I have no clue what happened to the restore process. If it was fine before you tried to restore to factory, I would suggest ordering the Toshiba recovery media and start over. I don't know Vista, but I'm betting you had the option to make your own recovery media. I can only guess that the hidden recovery partition was corrupt. That can happen. I'm assuming you are ordering the recovery media from Toshiba. There may be better replies latter. I have been told I give bad advise, so wait for better replies.
Dokie!
