HDV export as QT ref movie is an incompatible format in DVDSP

Just in case anyone runs into this:
I have a 15 min. program edited HDV 1080i 60. Sequence setting is set to handle renders as ProRes 422. No prob so far, edits, plays fine. I export as a QT reference movie. Still ok. Try to import into DVDSP and I get an "unable to import, incompatible format" error. Huh? Ok, back to FCP. Now I export QT movie again, this time instead of using the default of >setting >current settings I try Apple ProRes 422 HQ 1080 60i 48Khz. Now it imports into DVDSP.
In FCP audio in the sequence setting is showing up as 32 bit floating point. (can't change this) Source audio is 16 bit integer. It's the only thing I can figure. Ideas?

ref movie both times. It took 2 hours to make the ref movie, I can't imagine how much time a self contained movie would take. I think it's taking so long because I'm using a modified template from Motion in several places.

Put silent audio in exported QT ref movie

I have a number of sequences that has no audio.
These sequences should be put on DVD, and I've understood that you need to have audio in your DVD Tracks, even if it's silent.
Now, what's the easiest way to achieve this?
Put audio slug on all sequences and then export as QT ref move, for later compression?
Or, can I somehow tell FCP to capture the audio, without actually capturing it? (The latter would be most convenient, then I don't have to create ref movies, but can use the footage file directly in my compression software).

I've understood that you need to have audio in your DVD Tracks, even if it's silent.
Where do you get that idea? Never heard of such a thing...

Uh...what are you trying to do? you are talking about completely different things here...capturing and exporting for DVD.

FCP quits when exporting ref movie or self contained

This one has be pulling my hair out. When I try to export an hour long project, FCP quits about half way in. Doesn't seem to matter if it is a ref movie or self contained. I get the unexpectedly quit window. I have no idea how to fix this. It is extremely frustrating. Any ideas?
Best.

Don't use an XDCAM sequence setting. Mixing that format with ANY OTHER FORMAT causes issues. I have had 3 jobs in the last 2 weeks that were HDV and XDCAM, and when they were in their native timeline settings, with other footage and graphics mixed in, I had HORRID times exporting and outputting. The solution? Changing the sequence compressor to ProRes, and rendering again. Then the projects exported fine.
So my rule #1 when dealing with HDV or XDCAM, is to edit in a ProRes sequence...all the time. No matter what. Dealing with GOP native, when you add other things like stills or other footage, is cause for nightmare issues. That GOP format is just too whacky to deal with.

Ref movie slow export, like it is rendering

I have assembled some 640x480 Animation Codec clips in a 640x480 Animation Codec sequence. The goal is to export to QuickTime so that I can compress (and resize to 720x480) in Compressor and then add to a DVD Studio Pro project.
Some clips needed some help with speed changes and transitions, so I rendered all of that. In fact I selected all of the options in Sequence -> Render All... to be sure the sequence get entirely rendered and when I press Option-R. Pressing Option-R flashes the progress bar on and off to suggest the sequence is all rendered, nothing more to do. The places where there was red render bars now slows bluish render bars. That means rendered, right?
Yet when I export a video-only QuickTime reference movie, the progress seems to slow as it gets to the parts of the timeline where the blue render bars are, like it is rendering during the export. Why would it do this if I rendered everything first? In fact to prove that something is going on during the export, the reference movie is clearly not just a reference movie, the movie that is created in the end is over 14GB in size.
Any suggestions for how to set up sequence in a case like this, export the reference movie quickly and into a small file size (like you'd expect a ref movie to be)?

Jerky Ref Movie QT Export

I have a sequence with the following settings under Sequence-> Settings:
1920x1080
HD-TF 1080i (19:9)
Pixel Aspect Ratio: Square
Field Dom: None
Editing Timebase: 29.97
QT Video Setting: Apple ProRes 422
I then Save as Ref Movie File->Quicktime Export: current settings
The ProRes files that I am editng play great in QT, and in the sequence, but when
I play the ref movie it is very jerky. Any convertion i try with Compressor is jerky as well,
but since the ref movie is jerky I would expect Compressor to do that same.
would like to be able to produce a ref movie that is not jerky.
Thank you for your help

Render for a ref. movie?

I exported my sequence, 10bit 422, as a reference movie. The odd thing that happens is when I drop it into the sequence, it says it needs to render?
It was exported as simply a QT movie, not self contained, using the Current settings.
The anomoly is, I took a simple 10 sec chunk to test first and that dropped back in fine no render needed. Why would the longer 16 minute section need a render when the two were done the exact same way?

CCE = CinemaCraft Encoder.
Of course I realise that exporting a ref movie is quicker than a self-contained movie.
I now understand that exporting to AVI with DV means re-compression of all frames, which you don't have to do if you export a QT movie with DV codec. (Not sure why, the AVI is just a container...)
I normally use DVDSP for authoring and BitVice for compressing, but CCE give a good result in about real-time. The BV takes about 10 times real-time to encode to MPEG-2.

QT7 : export from mp4 to mov = white screen

hi
i have a MP4 video fil created with Premiere Pro CS ; i can read it into Quictime Pro 7.5.5
in QT i try to export it to a MOV file ; it takes only a few seconds, but the result is sound but white screen !
i need to send this MOV file to someone and i don't want to ask him to add plugin to his quicktime, it's too complicated
any idea ... ?
thanks

Exporting Custom Resolution Quicktime Movie with Custom Pixel Aspect Ratio

I want to export some 16x9 sequences (and others) at different resolutions with different pixel aspect ratios.
I have tried exporting as a Quicktime movie, but I get a codec error (with my required H.264 & AAC audio).
I have tried exporting using Quicktime conversion, but there is nowhere to enter a custom pixel aspect ratio (if they added that as an option in “preserve aspect ratio”, that would be nice).
I have tried exporting using Compressor, but it doesn't seem to accept my setting of pixel aspect ratio (HDV 1080i 16:9)—at least when I play back the video it is not using wide pixels.
Thanks for any suggestions.
G5

I would like to have arbitrary control of the pixel frame size on export as well as arbitrary control of the pixel aspect ratio. However, in this case I specificially want to export some video in a 4:3 pixel arrangement (such as 360x270) but have its display be 16:9 via non-square (i.e. 4:3) pixel aspect ratio.
In that sense, yes, I want to have something play back at 16:9, but at least some of my attempts to export video are squished at 4:3.
While it may be possible to adjust the display in the Quicktime Player, the AVC video syntax as specified by ISO and MPEG standards bodies allow the specification of the pixel aspect ratio (actually sample aspect ratio in the standard) within the bitstream, and when it is there, the latest versions of Quicktime will (from my experience) render the video with the correct aspect ratio.

Error while determining ref.mov.type for WM via Table 156S: 647/ / / /L/ /

Guyz,
Firstly despite the plant+storage location + warehouse no. assignments are done , my replenishment delivery (delivery for stock transport order between plants under same company code) is not picking up storage location and warehouse no and thus stopping me from doing picking and PGI (post goods issue).
However in VL02N when i'm trying to change storage location for line item, i'm getting following weird error
*Error while determining ref.mov.type for WM via Table 156S: 647/ / / /L/ /*
I found a SAP Note(133223) regarding this error and VL02 transaction but that note was specific to older versions. I'm on ECC 6.0
Any suggestions please ?
Thanks

Warehouse managment has its own movement types, most identical to inventory management movement types.
These WM movement types are determined via reference movement types.
the error you have just looks like your customizing is not complete.
IMG > LE > WM > Interfaces > IM > define movement types.

How do I export FCP movie to a WMV format (Windows Media Player friendly)?

I am puzzled. How can I export FCP movie to a WMV format or Windows Media Player friendly?
Thanks in advance.

You need a third party app to do this... AVI is the only format that you can export from FCP that's windows media friendly... WMF's can be exported with flip4mac... http://www.flip4mac.com Probably the best of the apps...

Ref.mov.type for WM

I am getting an error message 'Error while determining ref.mov.type for WM via Table 156S: 101/ / / /B/X/ ' while creating inbound delivery. Is anyone acquainted with such an issue? Can you please advice?
I have checked all the config for movement type definations. Everything looks ok. Please let me know if there is a fix.
Thanks!

Hi Avi,
I think, you didn't get me ...
In the above configuration what I explained, all you need to do is just adding the ref mvt type the one that is missing...it must be currently blank because of which the error what you posted is appearing. All that you need to do is just add the ref mvt type for the line as explained....
Remaining checkboxes, indicators etc....you are not even expected to be able to change....
What it means? for mvt type 101 of IM, when a material related transaction GR posting happens, for the material type used for setting up the material, in the plant of your concern, when there is no value and qty update is active in material type config, and which is not of special stock related posting, but referencing B - Purchase Order, of Transfer Type ie, stock transfer PO, the corresponding Ref Mvt type required to process further in WM, is missing in IM mvt type assignment (T156)...

Error messag -'Error while determining ref.mov.type for WM via Table 156S:'

Hi Guys,
I am currently facing some issues with respect to the deliver creation.
The scenario is somthing like this.
I have assigned a FOC Item category to an Consignment Issue order type.
The system is able to determine the Item category successfully.
However when the delivery is created it throws an error message
'Error while determining ref.mov.type for WM via Table 156S: 903/X/X/W/L/X/'
Not sure why this occurs.
All the settings seem to be set.
If any one of you can help me out it would be great.
Thanks.
Regards,
Pandi

Dear Pandiraj
The standard process is that consignment issue order should be created with reference to Proforma invoice. Having said that I dont understand why you have assigned a FOC item category to issue order. Not sure, whether this will work. Also I feel that you should explain in detail the process for which you are configuring this.
thanks

TS4163 Every time I try to export my movie into a Windows Format from compressor it shrinks the movie to 27 seconds.WHY? HELP

Every time I try to export my movie into a Windows Format from compressor it shrinks the movie to 27 seconds.WHY? HELP

Probably because you have the free version of Flip4MAc from Telestream that limits exported files to 30 seconds or so. There ae several paid versions – depending on your requirements
Good luck.
