Final cut pro dvd fails to share

Over the past few months Final Cut Pro Share DVD fails most of the time. I tried restarting the program and my mac to no avail. I end up moving the video to my macbook and sharing the dvd on it. I am running OX 10.9.5 Final Cut Pro 10.1.3.

The error message seemed to indicate an encoding problem – apparently to DVD specs. See id you can verify this by choosing Output Device>Hard Drive in Settings in export dialog. If it fails, leave FCP open and go inside the library bundle and open up the Shared Items folder. If there is an m2v file and an AC3 file, drag them to the Desktop to save them from being deleted when FCP is closed down.
Let us know what you find out.

$10,000 Mac Pro won't read $1,500 Apple Final Cut Pro DVDs. Awesome.

Have tried rebooting, updating, etc. No luck. DVD Drive just rejects the disk(s).
What does $11,500 get you from Apple? A boat anchor. Piece of crap won't read brand new Apple FCP disks, so the 60gb, 8 hour install either won't start at all, or fails about 80% of the way through. Just great.
Thing is, I also own some Macbook Pros, and the new one does the same thing.

Final Cut Pro takes time to share/export a 40 minute video

I bought a brand new new Macbook Pro (4 GB RAM, i5, HD 500 GB (300 GB available) Mid 2012 model and it takes 3-4 hours to share/export a 40 minute video without any effects applied on the clips. I have another Macbook Pro, same model and same specs and it just takes an hour to render the same video/project which I think is reasonable time.
Video files are from my Canon 60d camera which are .mov files. I usually export my projects to H.264 Video and AAC. (Share>Master File)
I don't have any problem exporting/sharing a 3 minute video with effects applied on the clips on my macbook Pro where I'm having a problem with because it has the same export/share time with my other MBP. It takes 5 minutes to share/export a 3 minute video which I think is reasonable. The problem is why my new Macbook Pro takes time to share/export a project with a video duration of 30-40 minutes compared to my other Macbook Pro.
Thank you for your help!
Final Cut Pro version: 10.0.8
Macbook: OS X 10.9.2

If you have two MBPs with exactly the same specs (including GPU) – and you have comparable free space on both system drives –and comparable free space on any media drives – then verify that your perceptions of their exporting times are different by doing a test with identical projects media and export settings – and ith no other apps running. If you confirm that one is much faster than the other, I'd suspect the GPU. Also open Activity Monitor to see what's being reported – particularly to see whether there are differences in the way memory is being used.

Final cut pro -dvd pro

How do I transfer my final cut pro project into dvd pro to be exported?

i can't get the firewire output to the beta deck. have an ADVC-110 media converter. so the setup is firewire (4 or 6-pin, have tried both) video/audio output of the mac, into the canopus, then from the red/white/yellow outputs there is a stereo pair of RCA cables with XLR adapters going to a Beta SP deck. I've gotten other signals in and out of the decks and input/outputs on the canopus. problem has definitely been narrowed down to the mac, or final cut pro. i've set every setting i can find to apple firewire but still can't get it. any ideas?...

My final cut pro DVD making problem

Hi, for some unknown reason, my final cut has stopped making DVD files when I give it that instruction. The file it makes will not play without quick time and is no use in a DVD player. Any ideas on how I make it return to making a DVD friendly file.

It sounds like you may be making a disk image. (Output Device>Hard Drive). Is that what you're doing?

Final Cut Pro DVD export failure?

What does this mean?(com.apple.Compressor.CompressorKit.ErrorDomain error -1.)
Have had no previous problems exporting via FCP , sharing to DVD. To youtube ....... trying hard not to hate.

OS X 10.9.5 3.5GHz Intel Core i7, 16 GB 1333MHz DDR3
FCP 10.1.2
Have burned 3.5minute DVD no drama, earlier did 1hour plus DVD, no problem also.
Thanks

Final cut pro : Export failed - File too large

Hello
I'm trying to export a project in FCP 10.0.5.
It seems to work but when it reaches 45% the export stops and here's the message :
Export failed : file too large ...
Can anyone help me please?
Thank you,
Fred

The file size is about right but your sampling rate is wrong.
44.1 kHz is CD Audio standard. Digital video uses 48 kHz -you can use QuickTime Player to resample:
File > Export > Sound to AIFF. Click Options and then *Audio Settings* to change the sampling rate.

Final cut pro fails to download from app store

Final cut pro X fails partway through downloading from app store. When I try to re initialize it immediately fails. Reboot creates the same result. I have 350gb available on this drive. It appears to consistently fail at around 2.2gb of download.

Solution is:
1) Close App Store.
2) Open terminal and run: open $TMPDIR../C/
3) Delete folder: "com.apple.appstore."
4) If FCP file exists in the applications folder - delete that too.
5) Launch App Store
6) Restart downloads.
This worked for me and others as well.

I just purchased Final Cut Pro X and I want to burn a dvd but the tabs do not see the option of SHARE. Is there something wrong with my Final Cut Pro X?

Final Cut Pro X share fails with QuickTime Error -50

Hello!
I'm facing a very annoying issue when trying to share my project from Final Cut Pro X. It used to work perfectly fine but now I'm getting consistently "QuickTime Error -50" after FCPX exported about 10% of my project. This can be reproduced with other project as well - one time I was able to export by restarting my machine but not anymore.
My configuration is a Mac Pro early 2008 with a ATI Radeon 5770. The only recent change I did to my config was to upgrade my old graphic cards to the Radeon 5770: do you think this can be the cause of this error?
Thanks for any help,
Jean

I am also expriencing the same error. Tried every solution listed so far:
1. Switch off background rendering. Trash render files. Don't render. Export.
2. copying the project within Final Cut Pro into another project
3. remove the following folder: Library > Application Support > ProApps > MIO > RADPlugins > XDCAMFormat.RADPlug
Nothing worked. I try to export to Vimeo, YouTube, and master. All error right at 9%
What's going on?

Comparing video quality of AVCHD BluRay discs using Final Cut Pro Share vs Compressor

Up front, I will admit to being a newbie when it comes to using Final Cut Studio 3 and would appreciate some feedback from the Apple forum experts.
I have spent a lot of time trying to determine how to achieve an optimum group of Compressor 3.5.2 settings so that the playback video quality of an AVCHD BluRay disc is equal to or better than one created by using the simpler auto settings of FCPro Share, version 7.0.2.
When using Compressor’s auto/default maximum settings, I experienced the same error message reported in:
Error MessageDuring Creation of Blu-ray Disc in FCP and Compressor 3.5
https://discussions.apple.com/message/12073794#12073794
I have since made some Compressor AVCHD Discs with smaller bit rate settings and compared video quality with a single FCP Share AVCHD disc. Both seem to be equal in providing a very good video when viewed on my new Panasonic DMP BDT 310 BluRay player. However, the Compressor AVCHD discs show some motion artifacts not present with the FCPro Share version, especially when scrolling text or when objects are moving through the field of view, and visible artifacts are seen from a stationary chain link fence and other lattice work in the background of the video sample.
My sample video used for the comparisons between Compressor and FCP Share discs is a 21 minute duration home movie, originally captured from a mini DV, Canon HV30 1080i camcorder using ProRes HQ encoding(1440x1080), and dragged into FC Pro 7.0.2 timeline where 10 chapter markers have been inserted.
To create an AVCHD disc using FCPro Share, Markers are used to set the IN and OUT points, Select IN to OUT from the timeline, pull down File Menu Share, Select Create BluRay from options in pop out Share pane, and designate output device along with picture files for Background, Logo, and Title options. When these are completed, click on Export. My 21-minute video required almost two hours for encoding including about 10 minutes for burning. This accomplished on an iMac 3.06 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo.
To prepare this same 21-minute video for use with Compressor, I again Select IN to Out from the FCPro timeline, but this time use File Export as a QuickTime Self Contained movie including Chapter markers. Then Open Compressor, choose Create BluRay from Template pane, right click on the down arrow in the Batch window and load the QT self contained movie file. From there I went to the Inspector window and tried various combinations of bit rate settings along with Frame Encoder options such as Better or Best motion parameter controls.
I have tried the following combinations of Bit rate settings along with varying Frame Encoder controls and burned an AVCHD disc for each example:
Example A
Compressor set to 6 Mbps Average and 8Mbps Maximum, Frame Encoder settings OFF. Approximately 4 hours to encode although the time remaining estimator indicated a larger value of ~7 hours; not an accurate estimator at all.
Example B
Compressor set to 6 Mbps Average and 8Mbps Maximum, Frame Encoder settings ON, using “Better (Linear Filter) and Better (Motionadaptive)” settings. Approximately 4 hours to encode, not the 13 hours that were estimated.
Conclusion: Comparing A & B Compressor versions, Disc B showed some improvements in reducing motion artifacts over Disc A.
Example C
Compressor set to 13 Mbps Average and 15 Mbps Maximum, Frame Encoder settings ON, using “Better (Linear Filter) and Better (Motion adaptive)” settings. Multipass checked. DeInterlace was checked. Unknown hours to encode; about 8 hours done overnight..
Conclusion: Disc C showed some minor improvements reducing motion artifacts over Disc B
Example D
Compressor Auto settings,i.e., 15 Mbps Average and 17 Mbps Maximum, Frame Encoder settings ON, using “Better (Linear Filter) and Better (Motion adaptive)” settings. Multipass checked. Approximately 12 hours to encode, done overnight. Inserted disc next morning after the overnight encoding was completed, and a few minutes later an error message pane appeared that the maximum bit rate had been exceeded. This message was consistent with the Apple posted thread referenced above. Unfortunately the long overnight encoding was wasted.
It seemed to me that the best Compressor settings for suppressing the motion artifacts were displayed by the disc burned in Example C, i.e., 13/15 Ave/Max Mbps with“Better” Motion settings in the Frame Encoder.
However, when this disc was compared to the AVCHD Disc burned using the FCPro Share, the latter still seemed much better. I do not know what the auto bit rate values are as set in FC Pro, but for me, the quality is quite good AND the motion artifacts are significantly reduced, especially evident with the scrolling text.
Sorry about this long post, but I thought the detail would be necessary for the experts, and maybe helpful to others trying to get started in this BluRay arena. Did I misuse Compressor? I think the sample video exported as a self contained QT movie was the right thing to do? Not sure where I went wrong.
Thanks in advance for Feedback and Recommendations. For now, I’m going to stay with the simpler process using Final Cut Pro Share function.
BoBo

Thank You, Brad, for responding; glad to hear I'm not the only one having similar Compressor issues.
You may have hit on something. Perhaps Compressor's use of H.264 encoding was the reason for my motion artifacts? And perhaps Final Cut Pro Share retains the 1440x1080 quality as it burns the AVCHD BluRay disc?
I had Toast 10 for less than 30 days a couple of years ago, and was lucky to get a refund.
What version of Toast do you have? Wondering if new Toast 11 has improved previous bugs, especially upgrading its Chapter text, pictures, music. I would go back to Toast if it came close to mirroring DVD Studio Pro, or even iDVD capabilities.
Thanks,
BoBo

Burning a DVD from Final Cut Pro X for DVD player

I created my video in Final Cut Pro X 10.1. I then exported it by "Share" to "DVD" and burned it to a Sony VDV+R disc. I needed 6 copies. Some worked when I put it in the DVD player to show on our TV and others said "Can't read disc" even though I followed the same process. What am I doing wrong and how can I export a video to a DVD to show on TV via a projector or DVD player. I am on a MAC OS X (10.9.2)

Ditto to Gary's comment.

Is out of sync audio because of Final Cut Pro X or DVD-R 8x?

Hi, I tried burning a 2 hour DVD straight from Final Cut Pro X (with it's featured menu). I used an Imation DVD-R 8x, and the burn went through successfully. However, the footage turned out pixelated and I noticed about halfway through that the audio was getting out of sync. I went back to check my sequence in FCPX to make sure I hadn't made a mistake and everything is alright. Was this an issue with the DVD I was using, or with FCPX's DVD exporting?

In FCPX, Share>DVD>Settings>Output Device>Hard Drive. That will make a disk image.
If you have iDVD, great choice. Just Share>Master File, and brong that into iDVD. The iDVD app will do the encoding and give you a disk image option as well.

Final Cut Pro exports very low quality video to DVD

I tried exporting a timeline to a DVD from Final Cut Pro X 10.0.3 today. Every clip in the timeline was 1080x1920, but the DVD export menu insisted (without offering an option to change settings) that Final Cut export at 720x480. The Blu-Ray menu offers 1080x1920 exporting, though. Is there any way to get the app to export to DVDs at 1080x1920?

Yes, you can create an AVCHD Disc which is basically Blu-ray quality on a cheapo standard DVD.
Select Share>Blu-ray and in the window that opens make sure the Output Device is your DVD burner, not the hard drive.
Note that you will only get about 35 minutes at the highest quality.
If your video is longer the data rate will be reduced but should still produce good quality hi-def up to an hour or so.
You must play the DVD in a Blu-ray player. It will not work in a normal DVD player.
