How to export FCP for broadcast station

I recently picked up a gig editing for the zoo here in the city. Unfortunately, I have never filmed/edited anything for t.v. How should I export the movie for the cable networks? Here are a few questions I have (I'm a rookie, please be patient with me):
1) Should I select make movie self-contained?
2) Should I export as "using quicktime" or "using quicktime conversion"?
3) How do I change the codec and frame rate if needed?
4) How would I transfer the movie file onto DVD after I am done?
Thanks, it is really apprecitated!

1.You should export a self contained movie using current settings -same as your Timeline codec and make the deliverables from that, using Compressor. Only the broadcaster can tell you what they need. Ask each and everyone of them that you will be delivering to for their spec sheet.
2. QuickTime Conversion will recompress the file, even if it is to the same codec as your Timeline.
3.Compressor. See 1.
4. You already have a copy of DVD Studio Pro. Learn to use it.

  • How to export 8 mono audio track Quick Times for broadcast stations?

    Hi, I work for a post house for Broadcast commercials. We are moving to a tapeless format for mastering and file delivery to stations and Extreme Reach.  Is it possible to use premiere to export a single file with 8 mono tracks to support a 5.1 mix (Channels 1-6) and a stereo mix (7-8). We need the file to contain all 8 tracks of audio as mono single tracks.

  • How to export DV to Broadcast QT???

    Hi
    How do you export a 720x480 DV clip to a 720x486 clip to a .MOV for broadcast purpose? I tried opening a new sequence with the right presets but the video stay small. Is it in the export?
    Thanks Guy

    You cannot resize the clip without loss of quality. Simply tell them you material is DV, not SD. Yes, you can paste it into a 720x486 timeline and export it, but your active video pixels will still be 720x 480.
    If they want it, they want it. If they're smart they'll take straight dv and do it themselves. I'd advise you to tell them that, then they have nobody to blame but themselves. Cash the check immediately.

  • How to export chart for publication?

    How to export a chart created in Numbers for publication (either as TIFF or JPEG or PDF)?
    Thanks

    Thank you for the response. In the meantime, I figured out the following. There is no way to just export the chart itself without exporting the whole spreadsheet including the chart.
    These are the steps I took to generate the chart in different formats.
    1. I first changed the View in Numbers to 'Layout'
    2. Moved the graph so that it was situated completely within a page all by itself.
    3. Exported the file as PDF.
    4. Opened file in Preview
    5. Used 'Rectangle' selection tool
    6. Used the tool to select the Chart/Graph
    7. Chose copy from Edit Menu
    8. Created new preview document by selecting 'New from Clipboard' under File menu
    9. Next chose Export
    10. Chose format for Export (JPEG, PNG, TIFF, etc) and Resolution requested by publisher of Journal.
    11. Saved!
    Cheers

  • How to export files for book's

    whats the best way to export files for a book? lets say I want to make an apple book using aperture with 60 pics in it from my son's recent black belt test. do I simply send the 60 best pics to apple in raw/master format and let them figure it out? or do I try to do image editing myself and send them jpegs? if I send them jpegs how do I strip out the Adobe rgb that my Nikon d70 seems to embed so the lab can do the color balancing?
    thanks for any help. great camera. great software. total amateur dad photographer and I really want to get these particular pics right!

    To get the pictures in the Aperture-produced book really looking good, you should plan on printing a test book. Then based on the test book you can adjust your images to add saturation or contrast or whatever you need to get them looking right. Remember, any book you order online is printed by a CMYK printer, which has a specific and kind of limited color space. It's hard to predict what changes will happen in the conversion to CMYK, so the best thing is use the first book printing as a test, not as something you expect to look really great.

  • How to export FCP to Flash Video?

    I am trying prepare videos from FCP for the internet. They website is flash, so the videos need to be in the correct format. I downloaded ffMPEGx, which has an option to convert to a flash video file, but the results are TERRIBLE. Can this be done within Compressor or Final Cut Pro?

    You can export a web H.264 then change the extension to .flv

  • How to Export HDV for Blu-Ray?

    When editing in DV mode, I would export an avi and a wav file, use Tmpgenc to convert the avi to an m2v file, then import the m2v and wav files into Tmpgenc DVD Author 16 to build a menu and burn a DVD. How do I burn a Blu-Ray disc after editing HDV? What are the steps? (I have a Blu-Ray burner and Blu-Ray discs.) I downloaded Tmpgenc Authoring Works 4 Trial, but it wouldn't recognize an m2v file that I made using Adobe Encoder. I can't use Encore because something screwed up upon installation and now it refuses to install it again. All I get are error messages.

    Yes, fixing an installation is a pain but it will help you in the long run.  You're asking for an aspirin to take away the pain of a broken leg.  Fix the leg.
    My thought would be that even if you try to work a blu-ray with some other program, your system problems will cause it to have the same problem.
    Try a simple uninstall of Adobe products, get and run the CS4 clean script, run whatever disk checking program you have on the system, do whatever maintainence is appropriate and then reinstall the Adobe apps, run the updaters and hopefully you'll be good to go.
    It's a pain, but it will likely be worth it.

  • How to export 2048x858 for DCP

    Just wondering if it is possible to export DPX's from Speedgrade at the DCP Scope required size of 2048 x 858 there doesn't seem to be an option in the Outputs. Some of the files in the timeline are 2048 x 858 openexr's and others are 4.5k R3d's. I'm aiming to have the whole timeline exported as 1 dpx sequence with all frames at 2048 x 858. Any suggestions on how to do this?
    ** Ok after some messing around I found a solution, (I'm working on a Mac 10.7.3 ) I opened the App package and navigated to contents/macos/settings/rendersizes.fcps opened this in Textwrangler and duplicated one of the 2k settings and modified it to the size I needed , works perfectly.
    Message was edited by: BenK1934

    Hey Ben,
    another, more comfortable method would be adding a Pan and Scan layer and type into the Crop area 'H2048 : H858'

  • How to export song for a pro tools user

    how do i export an audio instrument track for a pro tools user? i have a song with audio track and audio instruments and i was wondering if there was a way i could export the audio instruments seperately
    iMAC G5 isight   Mac OS X (10.4.6)   M-audio keystation 49, m-audio firewire 4-10, logic pro 7, yamaha monitors

    this is very easy now in logic. look in file -> export and there are a range of options.
    export region as audio file, and export tracks as audio files. if you do this (as opposed to OMF which is really only best for audio) then it is worth making sure that the regions start at the same point. it might be worth checking to see if exporting tracks as audio files will do this automatically for you - i have not used the feature.
    once the tracks have been exported (and incidentally they will print all the plug-in processing you have applied to them in the channel-strips) then simply import them into PT and start working. obviously they should all start at the same position.

  • Exporting FCP for DVD Studio Pro

    I have finished my movie in FCP and now want to export to DVD Studio Pro. The movie is 13 min. long. What is the best way to do this? Also I want it to be in widescreen format for HDTV.

    Is the video currently 16:9, or is it 16:9 within a 4:3 sequence? What I do when I make a DVD is just export a Quicktime Movie, and that will be a multi GB file usually and then bring that into DVDSP. DVDSP will do all the encoding as far as what format to go into. BUT, someone will most definitely come on here and tell you to export using compressor and have it do the encoding. EVERYBODY has their own way of doing it, those are just two.
    Good luck,

  • How to Export Repository for standalone environments?

    Hi All,
    Can someone help me understand if it is possible to run export repository command and export out certain repositories in case of a stand alone environment?
    Thanks,
    Mathew

    It's not possible to run utility commands like exportRepository, startSQLRepository without ATG installation directory.
    If ATG is installed on the machine where code is deployed, U can use them.
    Otherwise, U can use dyn/admin to export repository data.
    Steps:
    Go to repository component path location. i.e- http://domainname:port/dyn/admin/nucleus/atg/commerce/catalog/ProductCatalog
    Execute <export-items/> command in text area, it will export all items for that repository along with dependencies.
    If u need to export specific item-descriptor use <export-item item-descriptor=""/>
    Regards,
    Nitin.

    How does this system look?
    Any Suggestions
    This system will be used for Standard Definition editing with the move to HD early next year.
    Is the GTX580 w/ 3GB of memory a good choice?
    This will be used for commercial production. It is replacing an Avid Mediacomposer/Adobe Premiere 7 system.
    Output will primarily be via firewire to Sony DSR decks.

    While there are may recommendations that can be done. There is no one "best" solution. It all depends on budget, and needs. I can only tell you why I chose certain components.
    I took the Asus Rampage III for several reasons. I had to have sufficient PCIe slots of the appropriate lanes and physical spacing between them to accommodate 4 cards (One x16, one x8, and two x4). You have to account for the fact that the x16 GTX580 graphics card is double wide. In some cases, it's triple wide, but not the PNY GTX580 water cooled I chose. Another reason I chose it was because of it's ability to overclock. While most motherboards these days can overclock, the Rampage series has more options to fine tune. CPU wise, I'm getting a 990x CPU, because of it's unlocked multiplier, along with a closed-loop Anteck Kuhler 920 water cooling system. This CPU along with the Rampage III, will provide me with a wider spectrum of choices to achieve the fastest stable system I can get. In general, Asus brand has a good reputation, and the Rampage III has been around for some time and has proven itself to a stable and a good performer.
    Why overclock? I don't plan to break any speed limits. Nor do I plan to push the limits of stability either. But there is a middle ground that can allow me to get faster computing, while keeping stability, in a well cooled environment. For me stability is very important. And I know it's possible to have a stable overclocked system that can last for years. Why overclock at all? Productivity! While a 990x 3.4GHz is very fast; 4.0 or 4.2GHz is faster. Most functionalities of an editing workstation (other then MPE) is CPU cenric. And while most modern apps are multithreaded, not all are optimized to use multicore. So the raw speed of a single core is still advantageous. Imagine 6 cores running faster on optimized applications like CS5.5.
    If you intend to run lots of disks, a RAID card is highly recommended. Especially if your using a parity RAID like level 5. LSI makes good controllers. Areca also makes good controlers. The difference with LSI and Areca, and why a lot of people here choose Areca over other brands, is because of RAID3. RAID3 works beautifully in single user mode with very large files. Perfect for video editing. RAID5 will certainly work, but is better geared towards multiple users accessing large quantities of small data. Also, RAID5 from a motherboard's on-board RAID controller has CPU overhead. Having a card will remove that overhead. And RAID cards are more efficient then any on-board controllers. Finally, it helps to get a controller with more cache. While 512MB is good, more is better.

  • How to export movie for web?

    I am trying to upload a movie I made on iMovie to my website, but the .m4v does not work on anything but my mac. Is there some way I can convert the .m4v to an .mpeg?
    TIA,
    Dana

    I am trying to upload a movie I made on iMovie to my website, but the .m4v does not work on anything but my mac. Is there some way I can convert the .m4v to an .mpeg?
    There are many ways but it would help to know what flavor of .MPEG file you are targeting. Normally I would assume you are referring to an MPEG-2 video with MPEG-1, layer 2 (MP2) audio. The easiest to use application would probably be Visual Hub if you can find a copy. (Support dropped and possibly will return as an open source project called "FilmRedux.") iVCD, MPEG2 Works, and FFmpegX would be alternative dedicated converters. If you have iDVD or Toast, these burning application can also produce other flavors (MPEG2/AIFF or MPEG2/AC3 multiplexed files) which can be then be modified by MPEG Streamclip to an MPEG2/MP2 file secondarily.
    NOTE: The same four dedicated applications mentioned, as well as, Toast can also be used to create multiplexed MPEG-1 (.MPG) files if that was really what you really wanted.

  • Export MXF with multiple audio channels for broadcast

    Hi,
    I work at a broadcast company as an editor. We always used FCP with the free sony xdcam plugin to export. This plugin seems to be one of the rare ways to export an MXF with 4 audio channels. I don't know exactly why we need to export it for broadcasting with 4 audio channels, but we do.
    Since our workload has grown enormously the last few months and it will only become more we are optimizing our workflow. We also work with a lot of different endboards in After Effects and we made a nice template to work with. And since AE and Premiere can make a dynamic link we are considering changing from FCP to Premiere.
    Now comes the question!: The only obstacle we could not find an answer to is exporting it with 4 audio channels as an MXF from Premiere CS5. Will there be some development on this level regarding CS6?
    A solution to this should save us a lot of time!
    Any help will be highly appreciated!
    I also attached an example for the usual MXF files we export

    I have the same problem. I have a project with multiple audio channels and I want to export them as individual channels in a MXF-file.
    Method:
    When I created a new sequence I choose "Multichannel" from the "Tracks" page. When I export the MXF OP1a, I choose 8 channels from the "Audio" page. None of the channels are muted.
    Result:
    The rendered file contains 8 channels, but only the first two channels contains any audio (main left + right), the rest of the channels are empty. Channel 1 and 2 contains the audio from all channels, but I want the channels to be seperated in the same way as they are layered in Premiere.
    I don't understand your answer to wleoni75's question. Could you please help me further?
