How do I export from Compressor 4 to iDVD with chapter markers?

I get that Final Cut Pro X does not create chapter markers.
I send it to Compressor 4 to do this.
Ok, so far, so good.
How do I export this so that I can then author the DVD to include a menu page, etc?
Do I do this in iDVD?  If so, what format, as I see that iDVD does not import MPEG-2.

Don't use the DVD preset in Compressor. Use an MPEG4 format or maybe even AppleTV preset.
This Apple Support Article might help a little.

  • Exporting From FCE to IDVD With Chapters How long

    Exporting From FCE to IDVD With Chapters How long will the DVD hold??? if i have an hour and 40 minutes of HD footage all cut together with FCE and has been saved as a movie file, how many hours will IDVD let me burn to it?
    if i run over the allowed amount will it say i need to drop quality, i am editing loads at the moment and dont want to get to the end and it come up with an error message. also will idvd include the chapter markers if i export with them?

    Sure, no problem.
    1. Go to Project > Project Info in iDVD.
    2. Make sure "DVD Type" is set to a single-layer DVD.
    3. Under "Encoding," choose "Best Performance." Is the arrow solidly in the green portion of the quality bar? If so, go ahead and burn your disc.
    4. If not, choose "High Quality." Again, go ahead and burn your disc if the arrow is solidly in the green.
    3. If the arrow still isn't in the green, select Professional Quality. If the arrow's in the green, burn your disc. If not, you'll have to delete some of the menus (scene selection, etc.) or menu content and check again. You should be able to burn up to 2 hours if you don't have a lot of other menu content.

  • Exporting video in 16:9 with chapter markers in fcp

    I have been triyng to export a video in 16:9 with chapter markers but when opened with idvd I can only get either the format or the chapters by using two diferent procedures. Is there any way I can have it in the right format and with the chapter markers? If not, is there any other program, lets say dvd studio pro, that can do it. How should I export them?
    Thank you all for your help.

    Its SD, I found a way to export it so it would understand anamorphic but them I dont have the chapter marks.
    I will try the other forum, thank you.

  • How do I export from imovieHD to idvd without  themes?

    Hi there. I am still trying to get to grips with imovie, being a relative newcomer to Apple. I have arranged my video footage as I want it in imovie, and now want to burn the DVD, however I just want to keep it as plain footage, ie without the themes and music that you get when you send it to iDVD. I know I am probably being really thick but I can't work out how to do this! Many thanks, Ruth

  • How do I export from IMovie when "not enough room in Heap Zone" error code appears?   How can I correct,  what to Do.."export movie" insteand of Media browser or IDVD?  Finalize movie?  I want to burn it to DVD!

    How do I export from IMovie to Wondershare Creator to Make DVD and share hour long movie when I am unable to "publish" movie on Media Browser of IDVD because the error code "not enough room in heap Zone/ " appears and function is aborted. 
    I shortened the movie, that is no cure...Correcting date info on clips does not pertain.  Why would Apple throw roadblocks in your way without solving problems they create?
    A techie made an appointment on the phone and was totally incapable of addressing the problem.
    What is a heap zone????

    Instead of Share to Media Browser, what happens if you try Share Menu > Export Movie... (choose Large size) and save it to the Desktop?
    If that fails try Share Menu > Export using QuickTime...
    Then pick Movie to QuickTime Movie, then click on Options... which is just to the right of Export
    Under the Video section click on Settings...
    Then in the pulldown menu at the top, titled Compression Type: Choose Apple Intermediate Codec. Then click OK. And click OK again, and save it to the desktop. Once the .mov file is created, you can import that into iDVD and most likely it will work in Wondershare Creator if you prefer to use that instead.

  • What format to export from FCP for iDVD?

    I am having trouble coming from FCP to iDVD. Material was shot HDV on a Sony Z5 and I downconverted to DV to edit on FCP. I make a Quick Time Movie of the edit (as DV PAL) but the pans are all juddery. How should I export from FCP to stop the juddering on pans?

    BTW, this is the mother of all FAQs here Sadly the FAQ section of the forum decribes just the problem, not any solutions. And searching the forums doesn't always work either.

  • Quick Question (re:exporting from iMovie into iDVD)

    Hello everyone!
    I just have a quick question for you all... (I want to see if this is normal - I'm on a deadline and this is kind of freaking me out)
    So, we have a 20 minute or so video in iDVD. It plays fine, etc etc. The goal is to burn it to a DVD.
    I used the "Export -> to iDVD" function in iMovie, which launched iDVD.
    But here is the weird thing: nothing comes up in iDVD. It doesn't make a new file, doesn't give me anything... it is just open, waiting for me to create a new project to work with.
    YET, if I look in the Activity Monitor, I do see that EncoderServer (using 123% CPU) and ThumbnailServer (both iDVD processes) are running.... but shouldn't iDVD have told me it is working or that it is dealing with data?
    This is very un-"apple". I totally would have expected a progress bar of some sort in iDVD telling me it is working or something.... or is something wrong and I should try to export it in a different way?
    (I guess the underlying question is: when you export from iMovie to iDVD, does iDVD normally give you any 'heads-up' that it is working? how long does it normally take to open the project in iDVD?)

    Hi Matt!
    when you export from iMovie to iDVD, does iDVD normally give you any 'heads-up' that it is working? how long does it normally take to open the project in iDVD?)
    Yes, and it's instant.
    What you should see is iDVD opening and asking you to create a new project, It will suggest naming it the same as the iMovie project.
    There are reports that exporting from Imovie to iDVD can produce problems. What I do is save the iMovie project and close iMovie. Open iDVD, create the new DVD project, then go the File menu in iDVD, scroll down to Import, and in the side menu select Video. This open your Movie Folder, wherein resides your iMovie project. Select it and it imports into iDVD in a flash.
    Remember: iMovie projects go in the Movies Folder, iDVD projects go in the Documents folder. Change that, and they get very confused and unhappy.

  • Exporting from compressor to FCPX

    Is there a way to export from Compressor directly to FCPX? I am trying to figure out how to best use my nMP.  At the moment I am playing with the best way to import 4K  mpeg-4 video from my gopro camera.
    russ

    Video is a new technology for me. I started my project building a 15 year video library of a apprenticeship process. So my focus is not in a less that 3hr video.
    The nMP and TB changed the focus from a video library to a video data base.  As I was just using FCPX to edit videos   thinking of it as a library instead of a database, I really did not care about system design and work flow.  When started playing with multiple databases on a TB2 drive, the focus of the project changed to building a video database.
    I have five years of raw natural horse videos, there is no movie to be made, but when I want a video of an action or event, I need to be able to search for it.  For the data base function I need optimized videos in my libraries so I can skim through the raw footage.
    I am experimenting with 4K video seeing how I can import raw 4k video into my FCPX database as efficient as possible.  One experiment was to use compressor and render the video into 422 using cluster function of compressor. It looks like the camera transfer rate is too slow to matter. Compressor has not been stable enough for me to really test and understand it. That is probably my issue. Yesterday, I was testing monitor/tb drive combinations to see which combinations were more efficient.
    Now I am trying to figure out the most efficient way to import my Video from my GoPro camera. If I shoot 8 hours of 4k video, importing from a flash reader with compressor cluster technology and the batch system  might be more efficient.
    I am just sorting though my options.

  • How do I export from Imovie to Xilisoft?

    How do I export from Imovie to Xilisoft?

    Actually I did. And yes, I know that iDVD is no longer part of iLife.
    I could only guess as earlier iLife versions did include iDVD (I ahve it). If you had an iLife install DVD, you would be able to install it; as you didn't share what model/year your MBP was, it could have been included.
    My iMovie version is 9.0.9 and this is a screenshot of the options under "Share" in the File menu:
    You can export (different options available) to your desktop as a .mov and then import into a burn software (that will author/encode/"finalize" it so it can play in any DVD player). I'd never heard of Xilisoft, but that is not a burn software; iDVD is (still available as part of the retail iLife disks from online resellers), or Roxio Toast (excellent), or Burn (free) or google for others.

  • Audio drops when movie exported from iMovie into iDVD

    Hi there,
    I am a problem which I can't seem to fix.
    I have created a 7 minute long slideshow in imovie with MP3 files from iTtunes embedded. The video and audio are fine when exported as a MOV file (and within iMovie itself). But when exported into iDVD for burning, the audio drops out completely after 3 and a half minutes.
    I've tried updating iMovie, iDVD etc., deleting encoded assets as it says to do here: http://support.apple.com/kb/TA24043?viewlocale=en_US
    to no avail.
    Does anyone have any tips? My friend's wedding is on Saturday!
    Thanks so much.
    RR

    Hi
    A. I do not use "Share to iDVD" - BUT "Share to Media Browser" and as Large (not HD or other res.) - Works much better.
    B. When did it hang ?
    a. On Export from iMovie to iDVD
    b. When DVD is played on DVD-Player
    If last one - then
    • What brand of DVD did You use (Yes it matters)
    • What type of DVD
    • Free Space on Start-Up hard disk - How much
    • Burn speed - did You set down this - I do to x2 or x4

  • How do I export from PDF to PPT so that shapes created in Illustrator are editable

    How do I export from PDF to PPT so that shapes created in Illustrator are editable, not just text on top of them? I used the Acrobat XL Pro technique described here (http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/pdf-to-powerpoint-pptx-converter.html), to export a graphic I had created in Illustrator and saved as an Adobe PDF file, but shapes are not editable and are fuzzy too. Is there a way to export a complete Illustrator graphic to PowerPoint?

    Thanks Bill. Of course I realize I can insert an Illustrator drawing into a PPT without making it a PDF first. What I’m trying to do is insert a drawing from Illustrator that is still editable in PPT (a client request). Using the Acrobat XL Pro capability shown in this video <http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/pdf-to-powerpoint-pptx-converter.html> , only the text is editable in PPT, not shapes created in Illustrator.
