QT Web Movie from FCP looks and Plays Choppy!

Hi guys,
I finished a 4 miniute music video in FCP3. It was shot on Canon XL2 with 24p, 16:9. My "QT web movie looks and plays very choppy".
Here are my steps and settings:
FCP>File>Export>quicktime.
Video settings:
. Video Compression Codec= Sorenson Video3
. Compression Quality= Medium
. Motion Frames Per Second= 15fps
. Keyframes Every= 300 frames
. Bitrate: 90 kbits/sec
Sound Settings:
. Audio Compressor= IMA 4:1
. Rate= 32.000 KHz
. Size= 16 bit
. Use= Mono
Please Help!
Thanks,
ZIA

Sounds like a field or interlacing issue, Zia.
Maybe you had interlaced checked when it should have been progressive on export.
Or maybe the other way round - hard to see from where I sit.
Any of the fcp stuff done in Motion ? - 'coz sometimes motion does not get things right and you have to manually tell it what it needs to know.
Cntrl/Right click a clip >Reveal Source (I think its called).

  • How to take 16:9 HD Movie from QuickTime player and play 4:3 letterbox

    We have a movie created in Final Cut Pro in HDV, so it is 16x9 and it plays just fine having been exported as a QuickTime movie.
    The idea is to distribute it to some people that have 4:3 SD televisions, so we want to make a DVD that will play in those TV's but will not cut off the sides or distort the picture - in other words, to letterbox it.
    I tried creating a 4:3 project in iDVD, and dragging the quicktime movie in. It seemed to be letterboxed in the preview window, but when I burned the disc, not only was it not letterboxed, but it cut off the sides of the picture. Even playing it on a 16:9 TV had the sides cut off.
    Can someone suggest how to accomplish this?

    The original movie was exported from Final Cut Pro into QuickTime so it was 1920x1080 using the HDV 1080i60 codec. This resulted in a QuickTime movie file. After reading your reply I opened this .mov file in QuickTime player and exported it using the DV codec (best quality, 16x9, progressive). Under "Size" in the dialog, there was an option to "Preserve Aspect Ratio Using.." and I selected "letterbox".
    This produced what looks like a DV 853x480 file that looks letterboxed. I opened a new iDVD project, selected 4:3 as the ratio (since this will be viewed on a 4x3 Tv; that is the idea of making sure it is letterboxed) and imported the new file. It came out 4x3 stretched. So I guess I did something wrong.
    What should I do differently?

    There is no resolution needed, as this is not a problem.
    I am saying not the device, but the Apple ID is what needs to be the same, unless the movie is rented.
    If the movie is rented, it can only reside on one device at a time.  But from your error message above, I don't think that is your situation.
    Your error message suggests a different Apple ID purchased the movie.  If you want to see it, you must use your computer's iTunes, go to Store > Authorize This Account in the iTunes menu on your computer, and have that purchaser sign in with their Apple ID and password, then sync your iPad to that computer.

  • Is it possible to remove a video from a window and play it separately?

    I'm trying to watch a live stream from a website. Unfortunately all the other information on the website is useless to me. Is there a way that I could remove the video player from the browser and play it on its own? If not, is there a way that I can make the video larger without sending the video into full screen? I disable the other boxes from showing on screen, but still the video is too small.
    Please note that the stream is completely legal and paid for.

    Okay, that's what I figured. I had zoomed in on the browser before, but I was just curious if there was a more elegant way to enlarge the player. Thanik you for your help!
    Maybe this is something Adobe can look into (popping the player out). It'd be very useful for those of us in the corporate world who need to watch the news or tickers without having to be stuck on the browser. Yes tabs are available, but then it obscures the video. A stay on top tool option would be useful as well.

  • Exported Movie from FCP 7 to Quicktime. Audio is only bad on ONE COMPUTER with ONE HEADPHONES, why?

    Exported the movie from FCP 7 into a Quicktime video, one problem.
    Have three computers...the audio sounds great on all of them when using headphones #1 (http://www.amazon.com/iHome-LifeTalks-Basic-Headset-Black/dp/B001QXDMVE/ref=sr_1 _8?ie=UTF8&qid=1407521145&sr=8-8&keywords=ihome+headset). Audio also sounds great coming out of two stereo systems.
    But with headphones #2, a cheap pair of "Skull candy" headphones, the audio sounds great on computers 1 and 2, but when I listen to my video on computer 3, there is heavy static and backround noise, like a radio station that is out of tune. Everything else I listen to on computer 3 with headphones 2 sounds totally normal.
    How is such a thing possible?
    What steps can I take to "fix the audio"? I already "normalized the audio" (All audio was: .WAV files, recorded with a zoom H2 recorder). Could this be a hardware issue of some kind? This computer is an AspireX1430 bought 2 years ago, with whatever sound card it came with. I'd hate to put my video online only to find out later that for certain viewers the audio won't plan on their system.
    Thoughts? Thank you!

    Thanks!
    Yeah it is crazy to me that everything with this headphones and computer sounds normal, except for my one video!  Other youtube videos even sound good!
    Sent the video to our marketing department it will be mass emailed to 5000 customers shortly
    I feel confident enough...the video sounds great on 4/5 computers at least and probably a lot more!!!!

  • FCP X deleted about 2/3 of events to a project and the project. I uploaded the project to vimeo from FCP X, and the next day when I tried to use FCPX, they were gone, the events are gone from fcp and my ext hd, the project is still on the ext hd.

I uploaded the project to vimeo from FCP X, and the next day when I tried to use FCPX, they were gone, the events are gone from fcp and my ext hd, the project is still on the ext hd, but it won't recognize in FCP X even though my ext HD shows in the project tab. anybody any clue how to bring it back?

    Thanks for the reply Andy.
    No, I don't have identical projects on a second drive, only saving to the movies folder on internal HD. The files and media save there fine, but fcp doesn't seem to recognise them the next day, just opens with one new untitled event and no projects.
    I have tried saving to en external HD tonight and will see if the problem happens again with this set up when I restart tomorrow.
    But I should be able to save to internal HD, so something is going wrong...

  • I have ordered a movie from Apple TV and found it would take 10 hours and 27 minutes to down load. How do I stop it, and reverse my order????

    I have ordered a movie from Apple TV and found it would take 10 hours and 27 minutes to down load. How do I stop it, and reverse my order????

    The problem is generally due to a slow internet connection.
    AppleTV files are fixed size.
    For SD you need 2.5Mbps, 720p HD 6 Mbps and 1080p 8 Mbps sustained speeds to view immediately.
    If your internet delivers these speeds you should be able to play within seconds.
    If slower AppleTV works out how long it will take do download the rental of say 3.5GB for a 720p movie, then subtracts the running time of the movie and whatever that figure is is how long it'll take to start.
    So if a movie is 2 hours long and you have a fast connection and it calculates the movie could download in under 2 hours it'll play withing seconds.
    If it thinks it'll take 4 hours to download, it'll subtract the running time of 2 hours and allow you to play in 2 hours time.
    While this may not seem ideal the reason is that if it didn't precahce on a slow connection you would not be able to play a movie through without stopping and starting to cache the next section.
    Unfortunately this is compounded by using the AppleTV for other things as this can reset the clock by flushing any of the rental cached.

  • My Apple TV all of a sudden refuses to show my movies from my MacBook and says it needs to set time network. What is that?

    My Apple TV all of a sudden refuses to show the movies from my MacBook and says it needs to set time network. What is that?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    The Apple TV should set it's time automatically from the network time server, if it isn't doing this try restarting the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for a 30 seconds, if this fails try resetting or restoring it.

  • Some songs starts on my iPod, then stop and start from the begining and play all the way through

    Hey,
    While listening to songs on my iPod Classic 120gb, some songs will start to play, after 2-3 seconds, stop and start again from the beginning and play through the entire song no problems. On iTunes the songs still plays fine no stopping or starting. All songs are random artists and songs.
    Help! its really frustrating!

    Hey andy8299,
    Do you have any other music software (i.e Limewire) installed? If so perhaps these files are not compatible.
