Is it possible to export chapters into video files or final cut?

Hello,
I was wondering if it is possibly to export chapters from DVDSP of I would have to rework the chapters again when I edit. Bascially I have chapters, but they all end with a cutoff transition, I've decided to re-edit the 4 hrs of footage on final cut, but was hoping there was an easier way to have the chapters already there. Hopefully this makes sense...
Can Final Cut edit .m2v files?

No, I don't think that you can carry chapters from DVDSP into FCP. I may be wrong. You can however, do the opposite, carry chapter markers from FCP into DVDSP.
Yes, FCP can edit MPEG2.
Good luck.

How do i export a single jpeg frame from a video file in final cut x

how do i export a single jpeg frame from a video file in final cut x

You can also use the 3 finger method of COMMAND+SHIFT+4, then drag across what you want to copy from the image. That will show up on your desktop, which then you can edit using Photoshop, if you want too.
You can then change the file format from a PNG to either a .JPG or TIFF or even a Photoshop image.
Make sure, you have stopped the playback, to what you want to save as a still.
Either method works, to make a still image from video.

Can't open a video file after Final cut export

Very strange issue which getting me nuts.
I've FCP 7 on Lion.
I'm finishing a project and export it as it is on an external hard drive for back up.
I've got a .MOV file.
After that I'm making an other folder and export all the working file from FCP.
End of the story.
Later I want to open the Quic time video file... and then I've got an error message telling me that QT is looking for data of the video file "xyz-FIN-0000000e"
There is only a STOP button.
If I press it I've got a new error message telling me :
The file "xyz-FIN-0000000e" can't be found. Without it the video can't be play correctly"
(I'm translating the message from my french system)
So I can find sometimes the files is asking from the other folder (the FCP back up files) and then it open it...).
But WHY does the video file needs reference files ?
It was an export and I ask the exporter to make a self movie...
Realy I don't understand what's wrong.
Any cue ?
Thanks !
Jean do

Is this a Final Cut Pro .mov file. If it is it would open with FCP. Are you sure you saved with "self contained" checked. I seem to remember someone with a problem like this.
I think in the future you need to open your exported self contained FCP.mov files with quicktime Player and change the "open with" to quicktime player.

Can I move video files from Final Cut Pro to iMovie?

I've used iMovie forever, and I just bought Final Cut Pro. I uploaded video for a new movie into FCP, but I have an urgent need to get this movie done and don't have time to learn Final Cut Pro to do it. Can I move my video files from FCP over to iMovie 10.0.6? Or do I need to reload the raw video to iMovie?

No you will have to import your clips again into iMovie 10. Projects can only be transferred from iMovie 10 to FCPX and not the other way.

Can't open Sony PXW-X70 (.mxf) video files for Final Cut Pro X or iMovie, please help!

Hi there--
Just got the Sony PXW-X70 and I can't seem to open the .mxf or even successfully transcode the video files into something that can be read on the mac. (Running 10.9.5)
I downloaded Brorsoft Video Converter for Mac and the Ackrock Video Converters and neither of them work. They just are able to import the audio but not the video portion.
Very frustrated here, any advice? Thanks!

The clips from the X70 are not XAVC-S, but XAVC (sometimes called XAVC-L) and the plugin from Sony linked above is not compatible with them. I also don't recommend those sketchy third party conversion options. Still, as of mid-December, the best options for getting Sony X70 XAVC clips into FCPX are:
1. Use the free Sony Catalyst Browse to convert them (one at a time, although you can queue up multiple files without waiting for the previous one to finish)
2. Use the $200 Sony Catalyst Prepare software
3. Shoot AVCHD until there is a solution from Sony - supposedly Sony is at work on a plugin for FCPX to allow native ingest/editing of these clips. I've read that it should arrive very soon, but we'll see.
I'm using option 1 - $200 is ridiculous, and I didn't buy a camera with 10-bit 4:2:2 and a strong codec to shoot in AVCHD
If it's any consolation, Avid and even Sony Vegas will not import them either.

Editing a .mov / H.264 video file in Final Cut Express 4

I'm running FCE 4.0.1.
I was given a video file that is an interview with my father. The file has an extension of .mov, and it also has H.264 in the filename. The file contains a single uninterrupted interview that is over 2 hours long. There is lots of deadtime in the interview, and the interviewer was not mic'd, so you can barely hear the questions that are being asked. I want to use FCE4 to delete the deadtime and boost the audio whenever the interviewer speaks. I can "open" the file in FCE4 and view the contents in the viewer, but when I create a sequence and try to replay it, the canvas contains a big blue screen that says "unrendered."
I tried to research this issue on the forums before posting this topic, but I think I'm more confused now than when I started. Do I need to convert the .mov file to a DV format? Something else? Can I do the conversion in QuickTime?
Thanks in advance for your help.
jm

What's the frame resolution of the media? What's the frame rate? You can use MPEG Streamclip or the QuickTime Pro player to convert.
Curious where this came from and how it go to be QuickTime in H.264. This isn't the original. It would be better to go back to that if you can.

Iphone 4 video files on final cut express

Does anyone know it takes 4x as long to render and work with iPhone 4 video footage?
I am editing HD video (using a Panasonic AVCHD format) which works fine - however, whenever I add some occasional footage from my iPhone 4 the render/work times become immense.

MPEG Streamclip is what most people use: http://www.squared5.com/svideo/mpeg-streamclip-mac.html

Converting a video file for Final Cut

I am having trouble figuring out how to convert an existing mpeg or ripping a non copyright DVD so that the resulting file can be played back in Final Cut without any rendering needed. Many conversion apps will output to DV or MOV, but when I bring them in, they need to be rendered before playing. What do I need to do use, and what settings, to make the file play perfectly in Final Cut, without the need to render at all?
Thanks.

The tutorial was really clear and good. Here's the link to it for others who may want it directly. http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2059475&tstart=0
It deals with converting VOB, but it's the same deal no matter what you are converting. My only question is he was using PAL, so for NTSC, I used Apple DV/DVCPRO - NTSC. It worked, but just want to be sure that his is correct.
I'll never understand what the difference is between a DV file and an MOV file for this purpose. I read somewhere else that DV should be avoided and that MOV is better, but that's not what Nick is saying. Any thoughts?

How do i export a single video file that also contains ac3 audio

Hi Guys,
Is it possible to export a single video file that also contains ac3 5.1 surround audio?
I can create seperate audio and video files ok, but not a single file?
Please help...
Regards
Andy

You won't be able to do this with just FCPX by itself. You should be able to use Compressor to do this, or you can use Quicktime Pro to create a single .mov file from the separate video/audio files exported from FCPX.
If you use Compressor, you can save the preset and make it available inside FCPX for future use.

I shot video on a Panasonic P2 and I'm trying to import the MXF files to Final Cut Pro but when I try to import, the only thing that imports is a blurry image of each clip. There's no audio and no video...how can I import MXF files into Final Cut Pro?

at the end, you say "import preferences", which program are you describing?
So im safer using footage that is remotely being pulled from iphoto...
vs
using footage that is imported into FCP from imovie?
Is there anything i can do in fcp to make this footage more reliable or safer or more stable as i pull remotely from iphoto?
All the footage, and all the libraries to all programs, or on a new pegasus 12tb raid 5 setup fyi.

Please help me I do not show icon "next " if you want to export "share " a video file

But I have a problem does not appear Icon " next " if you want to export "share " a video file
I experimented with the trial version before to buy the full version

There is no trial version of Motion 5.
What exact "Share" option are you selecting to use?

When I move high quality clips into my timeline in Final Cut Express HD, they look and export low quality. I have tried converting the clips and de-interlacing them, but they always look the same, What is the problem? Thanks so much.

You should check that the Project settings match the clip settings before editing them to the Timeline.
Only newly created Projects will change not existing ones by adjusting the Project settings.
If, for example, you have a Project set to NTSC DV you can only end up in trouble if the clips are PAL 1920 x 1080i.

Why does Compressor take so long to export a 10 minute video clip from Final Cut Pro?

I've been trying export a 10 minute clip from Final Cut Pro. so it can be used with DVD Studio Pro and burned. However, the rendering process has taken 12 hours! The clip I'm exporting has minimal effects, no music, and is in 1080i 30fps. Does anyone know what's going on or what I can do to speed up the process?

First: How are you exporting? Are you using the Share feature or Send to Compressor?
Second: You haven't said anything about your system configuration or really very much about your movie. What is its format… is it really 30fps or 29.97? Whatever it is, are the project settings identical to the clip properties, or were they changed?

New iPod Touch-want to load videos created using Final Cut Studio

I'm unable to transfer movies I create on my Mac into the iPod Touch. I'm assuming all transfers to the iPod need to go through iTunes - is this correct?
I created a video in Final Cut Pro, then compressed two versions of podcasts in Compressor.
H.264 for iPod video and iPhone 320x320(QVGA)
H.264 for iPod video and iPhone 640x640(QVGA)
I then dragged them into iTunes library, thinking they would go into the Podcast folder, but instead they went to the Movie folder.
I synced to the iPod, and they fail to transfer/load. I then selected "Create iPod or iPhone Version" from the iTunes "Advanced" menu in case there was some file issue, but was unsuccessful in dragging it to the Podcast folder.
Does the iPod Touch sync up to all iTune's folders, or, is it limited to what's in the Podcast folder?
Is there a utility that exists to verify the video files are of the correct format.
Are there other steps I am missing?

For anyone else in the same situation - videos created in Final Cut Pro and compressed using either of the Compressor settings will create podcasts that can be synced up and play on the iPod Touch,
The problem was the "Sync Movies" setting - it was disabled. The challenge was finding the settings, and wouldn't have been an issue prior to release of version 3.0 software upgrade notice.
The "Sync" settings were where I first looked, from within iTunes, but as I said, the device settings were being hidden by an "Apple commercial" for the version 3.0 software upgrade - once I clicked on "Remind Me Later" I was able to see the 8 tabbed configuration screen. I guess marketing trumps usability.

Is it possible to export chapters into video files or final cut?
