FCP not exporting full Quicktime

Hi,
I am trying to export a quicktime and for some reason FCP will not export the full version, it claims to be done, but only exports 6 out of the 7 minutes. My markers are set appropriately. I've never seen this before, any suggestions?

What codec are you using for your export? What are your sequence settings? Try setting an in and an out for the last minute of your sequence and see if it will export. You might try copying the contents of your sequence to a new sequence to see if that makes a difference.

Keynote 08 will NOT export to Quicktime

I think it is ever since I installed Leopard or Keynote 08 that my Keynote recordings will not export to Quicktime. During 2007 I made many Quicktime movies using Keynote all of which exported successfully.
When I click on "Export" the function commences. The movie will then play in a Quicktime window with my voice over recording which I made in Keynote, but it will NOT save as a Quicktime movie that can be used elsewhere.
Does anyone have a workable answer to this issue.
Thanks

The other work around that I've found is to tell it "send to iDVD" but then quit iDVD when it pops that up. You'll end up with just the quicktime file it created.
What I noticed is that when a "quicktime export" plays in QT, it has a fps rate of like 7 or 8 or even 13 but the dynamic "playing fps" goes up to 30 during transitions and back to 0 when there isn't a transition. At least with the iDVD cheat you end up with 24 fps. That may work for some people, that is film rate, but I'm in need of NTSC DV 29.97. So I import it into Final Cut Express, and do an export conversion.
I don't use audio, so I don't know how that would work in this cheat, but since your voiceover (I'm guessing based on trying to put music to my slides) is one entire track, you can add that in FCE before that export and line it up there.
If anyone else has suggestions to get a 29.97 export correct with the "export to quicktime", I'd love to hear it. This cheat takes too long for my work.

Keynote 3.0.2 Will Not Export to Quicktime

I have a put together a Keynote presentation that uses a Quicktime movie on one of the slides. The presentation plays fine within Keynote, but when I try to export the presentation to Quicktime, the export stops and tells me there's not enough memory or there's something wrong with the file. The message comes up when the export procedure reaches the slide that contains the Quicktime movie. Is it possible to export a Keynote presentation to a Quicktime Movie if the presentation has a movie in it? That's like a movie inside a movie. I can't get it to export to QTime.

Will Not Export To Quicktime Error -1

Keynote has worked exporting to Quicktime perfectly in the past, but now says i don't have enough memory to export to Quicktime with an error or -1.
Just had plain text with me doing voiceover for about 20 minutes.
Have done it before with no problems.
I tried going to Library and removing the preferences for Keynote thinking maybe something got corrupted, but no dice.
Any help would be appreciated!

Was able to export after rebooting.

FCP not exporting or sharing

My son upgrade our mac 10.1.1 9 Mavericks a month ago and upgraded FCP X....and now I can't burn DVDs, export or share. The only thing i can do is export a file as a 'fcpxml' which won't open with anything but FCP X. Can someone please help me? Thanks!

So your copy of FCPX is version10.1?
Are the Share options unavailable or does it hang or crash when you export?

please help.

Press "c" to show it, and adjust it so it encompasses exactly the part you want to export.

Problems Exporting to Quicktime. Would you use Profcast?

Using the new Keynote, which is promising, we recording a seminar that was 2 hours long. We wanted to distribute it via CD. We have tried to export it so many ways to Quicktime. We get the old "Your slideshow cannot be exported as a Quicktime movie. There's not enough disk space, or there was a problem with the file." Of course, disk pace is not a problem. We just found out that this is some sort of bug that the Apple community has been trying to figure out for years and has errupted again with this new Keynote version. We've tried the couple solutions posted elsewhere on the internet, and nicely summarized here: http://www.madebymark.com/madebymark/2006/04/keynote30expo.html
As with the author above, they haven't worked for us. And we don't have a stray "audio icon" that the author describes. Our Keynote presentation is very bare, with new fancy slide transitions or effects.
I'm thinking that Keynote cannot be trusted with audio presentations of over a few minutes. We recorded a nice four minute or so presentation and exported to Quicktime. It worked wonderfully. Has all the nice effects. When we tried a longer recording (10) minutes, all the sound and transitions were out of sync.
Our problem is that we record whole lecture and seminars. If Keynote has a glitch, we are then having to re-record. It's painful and expensive.
We were using Profcast, which allows us to import Keynote presentation and record the lectures. Now Profcast doesn't allow fancy transitions. It also doesn't (or did not) export to Quicktime. It exported to mp4 (I believe) which a Quicktime user could open. But the audio was perfectly timed with the slide pagination. And two other important benefits. The lecturer could easily start and stop the audio. If I'm not mistaken, that's not on option under Keynote. If you start the recording under Keynote, you're on until you finish. If you pause (I don't think there is a pause. I think you must exit) the recording, you end the recording. The final nice thing of Profcast (although I have not used it) is that you can export to GarageBand. At that point you can edit out extraneous material. I'm not sure what to do with it at that point. I don't think GarageBand allows you to export to quicktime. I think you can export to iTunes which is a type of QT. Assuming that one had to edit using GarageBand, that would require person to have iTunes to listen and watch the slide presentation, if I'm not mistaken. The other problem is that when you are using Profcast, as I remember (and I may be wrong on this), you lose all the nice transitions and effects. You still see the same slides with the same quality, but minus the effects.
ProfCast has proven a reliable workhorse, but without the effects. Quicktime is wonderful if you are not recording audio. If you are, nightmares ensue, and there seems little hope for an immediate solution.
Here are my questions. Beyond the few solutions for the Quicktime export problem, does anyone have any solutions? Any suggestions? We have a three hour presentation (it's huge) and are loathe to rerecord it.
Should we just stick with Profcast? Why or why not?
Oscar

Oscar I feel your pain !
We had similar problems from a recent seminar recording.
However I don't think it's length related. We recorded 15 presentations. 7 of which did not have slides. All those were fine with just our placeholder screen (25-ish minutes each)
Of the remaining 8 half exported finem, half crashed with the "disk full etc" error. All 8 presentations had slides imported from Powerpoint PC. Slide numbers ranged from 10 to 30. We could not determine a common denominator between the ones that crashed.
We tried removing transitions, deleting and re-inserting the original slides and a whole raft of other voodoo especially trying to hack the contents of the KN Package file in the hope of stumbling on to a fix ... to no avail.
This was a one-off live conference, no re-record possible. You don't want to hear this but we were forced to extract the audio and manually resynch All the presentations in Flash
You may have a better workflow, but you DO know you can control click the Keynote file, choose "Show Package Contents" and in there you will find all sorts of stuff including the .m4a audio file
This is a serious bug that render KN completely it's recording feature completely unusable.
But what has been most disappointing to me has been the absolute lack of any feedback from the stuff I have filed on this. Bug reports, Feature Enhancements, and the lack of comments from any of the Apple KN staff on this Apple KN board, does not speak well to the type of support for this product.
But here's the sting in the tail:
Having JUST completed the Flash workaround (at a cost of several thousand dollars in contracting) I just installed the KN 4.01 updater released today and all the files that would not export now do so just fine ! Grrrrrrrrrr.........

Export To Quicktime Movie (Reference or Self Contained) - GENERAL ERROR

Hi -
I recently had to re-install FCS2 due to problems with OSX.
Now, for some reason, when I want to export from FCP to get a QT reference movie, I get a general error message. All other options from FCP export seem to work, but NOT export to Quicktime Movie.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.
Chris

how so?
we can all do with a dummy's cheat sheet e.g. when making a master monitor the record device, not the computer.
So come on, what'd you do?

FCP project not the correct aspect ratio when exporting to Quicktime

Hello All;
I am trying to export a FCP project in its native resolution (1440 X 1080) to Quicktime but everytime I try, the aspect ratio is messed up and people look taller and thinner than they should.
The project is a resolution of 1440 X 1080 as determined by examining the sequence settings in FCP.
I configure quicktime (see below) to a resolution of 1440 X 1080.
So why isn't my Quicktime video the correct resolution when I play it with the IMac's Quicktime player ? I shrink the player to 1/2 size to fit it all on the screen.
My exact settings are below ...
Export - Using Quicktime Conversion
Format - Quicktime Movie
Video Settings - Compressor - MPEG-4
Quality - Best
Not sure if I changed the framerate - if I did, I probably changed it to 29.97
I didn't touch the other settings in the video settings - left them to default
I didn't change the filter settings - I left them at default
Size - 1440 X 1080 (The actual resolution of my source video)
I checked the box - preserve aspect ratio using letterbox (If applicable)
Other settings were left at default
Sound Settings - Format - AAC
Rate - 48 KHZ
Render Settings - Quality - Best
Target Bitrate - 128 KHZ (This was left at default - I did not change it)
Prepare for Internet Streaming - Fast Start checked (This was default - I did not change it)
All other settings not specifically mentioned were left at default.
Thanks. Tim

I don't have much of an answer for you, but to test try not checking the preserve aspect ratio. Rather than reexport the entire 1 hour just export 10 seconds so that you can trouble shoot different things.
Hope that helps a bit,
Eric

General error in FCP re: rendering and export after Quicktime 7.5.5 update

Hi
My FCP 6.0.4 rendering and export to Compressor no longer works after an update to Quicktime 7.5.5.
Rendering fails after a few seconds "General Error!" pops up. Exporting to Compressor, after setting it compressing, Compressor after a few seconds fails. (audio is processed) My current work around is exporting a sequence using Quicktime conversion (time consuming) and then opening in Compressor.
I've done the usual, deleting prefs, new sequences and projects, even saving movs in different codecs.
(been using H.264)
My sequences are all custom sizes but tests using presets also fail.
Any ideas anyone?
And I was so happy the Quicktime upgrade could play sequence movs recorded months earlier that until now I couldn't play properly due to previous Quicktime upgrades!
Apple gives with one hand and takes with the other....

Hi There,
Thanks for your reply on this.
Well basically since I'm using content already in the H.254 codec (eg: a trailer off the internet, or the downsizing of HD footage) i'm just exporting to a codec that didn't have to be rendered and gave quality results. I used motion jpeg B as an export codec because it was quick (although HD space hungry) with no drop in quality. The resulting exports could be imported into a custom sequence (720 x 405) as square pixel aspect ratio files. Overlapping the canvas with other windows (eg: viewer) meant I could play a clip (with dropped frames) but not have to render it. I selected the H.264 codec as the sequence codec because I've found other codecs introduce darkening or lightening or blurring or other undesirable artefacts when exported to Compressor. H.264 used in the sequence settings exported through Compressor would give resulting m2v's as sharp and contrast accurate as the source file.
That was until the recent 7.5.5 Quicktime update where attempts to do the same things I did before result in "General Error!" coming up after a few seconds of play or rendering.
Traditional DV codecs are "blurry" in my opinion, especially when coping with web content or conversion of HD downloads.
If you can suggest an editing codec that works best with FCP that is quick, doesn't introduce blurring or general degrading of the image I'd be happy to try it out. I typically downsize HD content from the web for DVD playback, so it's usually in a H.264 codec already. So i would need a codec for export from Quicktime that would work best with a codec in FCP. That doesn't alter picture quality when compressed to m2v in Compressor.
Thanks!

HDV and FCP Export to Quicktime Movie

Hi.
Should I be able to "Export to Quicktime" a 90-minute FCP timeline and expect no hiccups? I keep trying and my Quicktime file has an occasional slight jump from one frame to another when I view it. This happens about once every 2-3 minutes.
Is the file too large to play back (13gig)? Do I not have a powerful enough computer or graphics card?
My goal is to play the movie using DVI-out to a theatre's DVI-in, so the film can be viewed in the best quality possible. I was hoping to output to a Quicktime, dump it to my MacBook and play it using the DVI-out.
Any thoughts or suggestions?
Specs:
~ MacPro Dual-Core Intel Xeon 2.66 GHz, 1 GB Ram
~ NVIDIA GeForce 7300 GT graphics card
~ Timeline: 720p at 24fps HDV native video
~ Outputting to Quicktime Uncompressed
~ MacBook: 2.16 GHz, 1 GB Ram
~ MacBook Video Card: Intel GMA 950 graphics processor with 64MB of DDR2 SDRAM shared with main memory4

Choose file/export/QuickTime Movie, and check on the "make self contained" option. Turn off the "recompress all frames" option. This is the best export there is for any source media format HDV or not... Might try exporting just a bit, and see if this movie will play back ok on a MacBook first though using the DVI out to another monitor... Don't change formats. Making it any other format will cause quality loss, or create a file so large that the macbook won't play it... I'd also suggest you put it on a fw drive to play back from the MacBook.
If it were me though, I'd not trust the Macbook to play it back OK... just not enough horsepower IMHO.

Can't export to quicktime v10 from FCP 5

I have recently loaded FCP 5 (Not Studio) onto a G5 iMac.
When I try and export to quicktime it only exports the first
18 seconds or so. My FCP 5 worked fine on my iMac G-4 with Quicktime 7.6 but it doesn't export on my G-5 using Quicktime 10.
It will export using quicktime conversion, but then I cannot get my chapter markers.
Any and all help appreciated.
Michael the Hunter

Thanks for the response.
On my G4 I am using 10.04.11 and it works just fine with my FCP 5. The G 5 that I am having trouble with FCP 5 is Snow Leopard. I figured that the Snow Leopard OS was probably the problem along with Quicktime 10. And you have confirmed that.
Looks like I will have to purchase a newer version of FCP for the G 5 and use my FCP 5 on my old G 4. Thank you apple.
Thanks for your input.

Can not export to a quicktime movie

So, I've spent the past two weeks putting this wedding video together on final cut express HD 3.5.1 and I'm all set to burn it to a DVD. I figured the easiest way to do this would be through iDVD. iDVD recommends that, while in FCE, I choose the "Export to quicktime movie" command to create a quicktime file that I can then drag and drop to iDVD. Sounds easy enough, but I simply can not export my project to QT in FCE. Every time I attempt to do so, one of two things happens: 1) after about a second of "writing audio and video" it quits w. the following error message: "file error: unknown file" or 2) the entire project is "written," but the created QT file will not open up and does not give a helpful explanation as to why.
By no means am I married to iDVD or QT if anybody has any other suggestions as to how I can feasibly get my FCE project somehow burned onto a DVD. But if anybody has any suggestions w/ or w/o exporting to QT, please please please help me as soon as you can. This is my sister's wedding video and she and her husband will be moving to colorado next week! I really need to get this to her before then.
My scratch disk is an external HD - USB-HDD (FAT32) Processor: 2 GHz Intel Core Duo, Memory: 2GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM

I have to plead ignorance regarding the firewire "drive" that you're referring to. My USB-HD is connected with a firewire cable. I'm not familiar with the distinction between this type of connection and a "firewire drive."
You might be interested to know I was able to successfully export a ten-minute DVD clip (with multiple tracks and rendered video) excerpted from my final cut project and subsequently burn it to a DVD. It didn't look like it had exported successfully, because it was still a .fcp file. I simply changed it to a .mov and changed the default opener from FCE to Quicktime and "voila" I had a quicktime movie. Too bad I can't get the same thing to work for the two-hour project.
Nonetheless, the fact that I was able to get the clip on a DVD gives me confidence that somehow, some way I can convert my whole project to a quicktime file. It's my hope that someone will read this forum and burst forth with a fresh, imaginative approach keeping in mind I'm not about to run out and spend two hundred bucks on a third hard drive I don't need.
Thanks for your suggestions. Please keep them coming if you have any other ideas.

Need quick solution! QT Movie export from FCP not right, client breathing down neck...

I am working on a project in FCP 6.0.6. The footage is ProRes, 1920 X 1080, and runs about 50 minutes. Some graphics but minimal. Plays back great in timeline. I export a QuickTime Movie (reference movie) but when I play it in Compressor, the video suddenly jumps ahead about five seconds at the 36:00 mark. The audio continues as normal, but now, of course, audio and video are five seconds out of synch. Made multiple attempts to export from FCP, but I keep getting the same result.
I have a feeling this may be a QuickTime compatability issue, but I can't compress for Web or DVD until I figure this out. Not finding anything in discussions at Apple or Web.
Other pertinents:
24-inch iMac, 2.4 GHZ
4 GB RAM
OS 10.7.5
Assistance appreciated.

Thanks for your comment, Michael, but I actually solved the issue last night. Shane had asked earlier about whether I had any H.264 clips, and I did not. But last night I remembered that when I first created the sequence, I had dragged in an H.264 clip before I converted them all to ProRes. So I realized that although my clips were all ProRes, the sequence itself might still be set for H.264. Checked settings, and sure enough, compression was on H.264. Changed it to ProRes, re-rendered, and I'm rolling again. Thanks, Shane, for planting the seed on that one.
