Final Cut Pro X how do you convert HD NTSC to SD PAL DVD

Aloha,
I have edited a video and wanting to export to PAL SD DVD.  The video was shoot in NTSC HD and edited in the same format.  When I select share / DVD I do not see the option to select export to PAL.  I always export to SD DVD's but they default to NTSC so I never gave it much though until today....
Please advise and thanks!
Frederick

Aloha Tom,
Thanks for your feedback.  I will give it a try and see if the clients have any problems playing the DVD.  I have read a post that indicated PAL players can play NTSC DVD's, which is great!
I also wanted to be 100% sure that FCPX DOES NOT have the option to do this and you made it perfectly clear. 
Thank you,
Frederick

  • Final Cut Pro X - How do you display filenames in picture slideshow?

    I am trying to create a slideshow with about 400 pictures and would like the filenames to be displayed to help identify the individual etc.
    These include old pictures that were scanned etc.
    is there a plugin available or some hidden submenu that will allow you to apply to all pics in the slideshow?
    Regards
    Everett

    I don't think there is as I too would like that capability.
    A few years ago I made a compromise by numbering every photo automatically  using Piero Fiorani's free Counter Display plugin.
    I then printed several sheets of A4 with the numbers and details of all the photos. So anyone viewing the slides coul pause, note the number and read the info off the sheets.
    It only works as long as all the slides have the same duration.
    The instructions for modifying it for slides are found near the bottom of this page:-

  • Using final cut pro x how to fade to black

    with final cut pro x, how do you fade to black?

    So, at this point I feel compelled to throw out a few 'pearls of wisdom' for the self-taught beginners who use this forum;
    It IS a place to come for expert advice from a mix of enthusiasts and professionals, and yes, you can get problems solved here that you won't find answers to anywhere else (with the possible exception of Creative Cow). Some problems get answered better here than from Apple Support.
    This does not mean that you (the beginner) are absolved from a little study on your own. BROWSE the forum a little before you ask a question - you may even discover something that you didn't even know that you didn't know.
    Speaking of youtube; take a look at the Izzyvideo tutorial or some of the others posted there. Learn the basics, and then ask a question. If we are willing to take the time to answer questions, then you should (at least!) be willing to take the time to do a little research.
    If you don't have the time to learn the software, HIRE an editor.
    Don't PAY MORE than $15 for a bottle of wine.

  • All of my titles, themes and generators seem to be completely missing from Final cut pro x. Do you know how to get them back?

    All of my titles, themes and generators seem to be completely missing from Final cut pro x. Do you know how to get them back?

    Do you mean that when you click the title browser, for example, nothing is there?
    Do you at least see several categories listed in the effects browser?
    First make sure that you have nothing typed into the search box (not even spaces).
    If you still see nothing, try this in order:
    1) Window->Revert to Original Layout
    2) Quit FCP X, delete preferences using Preference Manager (a free download from Digital Rebellion)
    3) Download FCS Remover, and use it to completely remove FCP X. This will NOT delete your content, just the application.
    4) Reinstall FCP X from the Mac App Store: log in with the same Apple ID that you used to buy FCP X, click on "Purchases", locate FCP X and click Install.

  • Final Cut Pro x how to export OMF?

    Final Cut Pro x how to export OMF?

    As far as I understand, FCPX doesn't support OMF exports, unless something has changed recently. There are some workarounds that you can do, see this post. It looks a little cumbersome though. Hope that helps you further.

  • I have Final cut Pro HD sequence and I need to burn this on a DVD

    I have Final cut Pro HD sequence and I need to burn this on a DVD, my sequence lasts 1 hr and 33 minutes. What are my options? Is it better to export as a Quick Time movie or using the compressor? I'm new to the compressor just learning, please help.

    Select your sequence in the browser window, go to the File menu and choose Export Using Compressor.
    When compressor opens, choose the DVD best quality settings, 120 minutes.
    For audio and video both, choose both the m2v video and the AC3 audio. (Dolby Professional)
    Choose a destination for your files, and hit submit.
    When it's finished, import these files into your DVD SP project, and make your DVD.
    Be sure to choose the 16:9 anamorphic settings.

  • I downloaded Final cut pro x, how do i get hard copy disks?

    I recently downloaded Final Cut Pro X from the App store to my MacBook Pro (OS X-10.9.5). I need to move it and the projects to a different MBP in the office. Do I need the hardcopy disks in order to move the application? If so, how do I get them?

    you can redownload the application from the app store using the same ID you used to purchase it originally at no charge.

  • Final Cut Pro X: How to not get it to crash.

    Most times when I use Final Cut Pro X, sometimes it crashes and I have no idea how it is doing that. Can you please do something that can help me stop Final Cut Pro X from crashing?

    I found out that, according to digibudII, the maximum amount of RAM could be 6GB on my iMac. Even though the 8GB RAM was recommended to help Final Cut Pro X from not crashing, it would not work in my model.
    I did, however, find some Memory upgrades for the model:

  • My files from final cut pro trial aren't transferring to final cut pro x - how do I fix this?

    I had been making a video in the final cut pro trial and didn't realize my trial was going to run out as soon as it did that day. I downloaded final cut pro x and was planning on finishing up editing tonight, but none of my files from final cut pro trial transferred over to final cut pro x. Everywhere I have read online said they should transfer automatically, but that's not happening. Is there a fix?

    you're tried using the 'Open Library' command?

  • If i edit in final cut pro x, how can i create a dvd

    What is the best DVD creator to download to create DVDs  from movies edited in Final Cut Pro X?

    iDVD gets my top vote - it is no longer available from Apple, but still part of the retail iLife 09 or 11 versions available from online resellers. It offers customizable menus/themes which will give your creation a professional look. It encodes/authors and you can burn directly from it.
    Second is Roxio Toast (no customizable menus, but many other features and an excellent burn software).
    I've tried DVD creator and found it to be too simplistic. Then there is Burn (free) - it burns.
    I use iDVD to "create" and Toast to burn.

  • Final Cut Pro 5: How do i delete the preference files

    Wen trashing prefrences, out of Final Cut Pro Obj Cache and Final Cut Pro Prof Cache what one do i trash?

    Oddly enough, according to Apple's Knowledge Base article (for FCP 5), the answer is neither. <shrug> (this must be new for FCP 5)
    Once you're done with that, go ahead and download FCP Rescue - graciously hosted by Patrick Sheffield - so you don't have to get your hands dirty the next time you're forced to do this.
    edit: beaten to the punch by Mr. Sheffield!

  • I have final cut pro x, how can i copy my project to dvd

    i have final cut pro x on my i mac, i creat a video project and would like to copy to dvd. how can i do that. thanks haidar

    DVD should show as an option (destination) in the menu associated with Share.  To actually go to a DVD, there has to be a DVD burner connected to the Mac.

  • Final Cut Pro. How do I put three hours of footage on Idvd on one dvd?

    I tried to put three and a half hours of video onto IDVD but it would not except because it was to long. How do I fit all of this footage on one dvd? Thanks.

    ohhhh! I get to correct Shane (sort of)! In DVD-SP you can burn a dual layer disc (DVD-9). I don't have or use iDVD so I cannot say if it is dual layer capable.
    Another option would be to use a stand-alone DVD recorder. Many have an option to increase the record time up to 4 hours, but quality WILL go downhill fast.
