Quicktime video skips and freezes after exporting from FCP

I have tried exporting from Final Cut a few different ways, but my QT file had short skips and freezes in the video (the audio is perfect).
I have done this same thing several time with no problems at all. What am I doing wrong?

DETAILS
What are you exporting?
How are you exporting... QT Movie, Conversion, what settings?
What drive are you exporting to?
What version of FCP and QT?

  • White screen in Avid Meridian after export from FCP 6?

    After exporting a sequence as 10 bit uncompressed NTSC (using AJA Kona II card) on FCP Ver. 6.06, I imported the file into my Avid Symphony (Meridian).
    When I tried to play the file, I could only see a white screen. Audio plays fine.
    I have searched Apple, AJA (Kona card) and Avid websites, but can't seem to find a codec or update that addresses this problem.
    Any suggestions?

    Ahhh...I think the big issue is that you are running that Avid on a PC.  So what you need to do is convert the file to the Avid Meridian QT codec, and then bring it over.  This means that you need to download that Avid codecs and install those on your Mac. 
    And there will be a gamma shift...no way around that. You'll have to correct for that on the Avid.

  • QMaster Settings, And Freezes When Rendering From FCP

    I have a Octo Mac Pro and I setting the settings in QMaster to 12 intances, and even 8 for cluster renderings. When I tried to render a clip from FCP to Compressor, it freezes in the Batch Monitor at like 50% and stops? Has anybody else had this problem? What are the best settings in Qmaster to get good results ? Sweet spot? Instances settings etc.? for Cluster renderings?
    Thanks TimC

    See kenstone.net for some articles on the topic of optimizing Qmaster.
    But freezing usually indicates a different kind of problem, probably associated with your source movie or the amount of space on the target drive.

  • Audio level drop after exporting from FCP to Comp

    my dialnorm at -31db, precompressor compression setting @ none, any other setting i need to look at??

    do I need both of the audio files that ALL generates, or just the APack lookalike file?
    This is the topic of some debate.
    One camp - which I belong to - believes that you only need the A.pack lookalike (the .ac3 file). This allows you to either fit more video into your project or encode the video at a higher bit rate. Also, there is strong belief by that the inclusion of high data rate AIFF files causes many players to choke. This is the reason that gets the blame for many iDVD discs choking on players, since iDVD uses only AIFF audio for it's projects.
    The exception to the rule (for this camp) is if you're doing a music-based project - a concert, music video or karaoke DVD - where you don't want any compression of the audio.
    But, to try and answer your question directly, if you've successfully used A.Pack files in the past, you should be fine with just the .ac3 file from Compressor 2. At least, that's how I feel about it.

  • Exporting from FCP to DVD

    Hey
    Just wondering if I can get some advise. I need to export my project from final cut pro to DVD but just wondering what the best way to do this would be to get the best quality DVD. (This is for a company to take out to potential clients to sell what the company does - so it needs to look good!)
    My project is no longer than 5 mins
    1920 x 1080 - 1080i (16:9)
    Field Dominance: None
    frame rate 25
    I have Final Cut Studio latest version.
    I'm trying out a few options at the moment using compressor - best quality - so we'll see what these look like, but I'm not sure what all the settings should be set at.
    Any advise on what you think will be best would be great.
    Thanks

    Wouldn't use Quicktime conversion - no need. Just export from FCP as Quicktime Movie at current settings.
    In my experience, changing the field dominance from interlaced to progressive can cause stuttering particularly in motion graphics - this might not be an issue if you're laying to tape for broadcast but when you convert back to interlaced for SD DVD it can look very ugly.
    In any case, at the very least, you need to be using a Kona card or IOHD to do this type of conversion properly - and really, if you want progressive you should shoot progressive.

  • MacBook Pro makes a noise and freezes after I open the lid and awake it from it's sleep after installing Mt. Lion.  How do I fix this?

    Eversince I installed Mt. Lion my Macbook Pro has been making a long "beeeeeeep" noise and freezes after I try to awake it from it's sleep by opening the lid.  How do I fix this problem? 

    Either the license files were not transferred or it has to be relicensed.
    Remove and then re-install aperture. On an rMBP this should take only a couple of minutes.

  • Why is my purchased tv show skipping and freezing?

    I bought two episodes of a TV show and they've both completely downloaded, however when I try and watch them they skip and freeze and it seems as if the sound doesn't match up with the picture.  Any idea why this is happening? I've never had any trouble playing content on my laptop before.

    Hi, ANM100.
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
    Here are a couple resources I could recommend to help you troubleshoot this issue.  The first article will help troubleshoot the audio and video out of sync issue.  If the media has been purchased from iTunes it could be an issue with the downloaded media.  You can delete the problematic media and download it again free of charge by following the steps in the second article.

  • Quicktime export from FCP quality bad on Windows Quicktime

    Hey all,
    I believe this question has been brought up in a previous post (http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=2932763&#2932763 "Quicktime export from FCP quality bad on PCs"), but it was never answered. So I captured video using final cut pro using the following capture preset:
    Sequence Preset - DV NTSC 48 kHz
    DVR-TRV900 using NTSC
    29.97 fps
    DV - NTSC at Best Quality
    24 bits per pixel
    720 by 480
    When I view the video under quicktime for mac, it looks good. However, when I view the content under quicktime for windows, the quality is noticeably degraded. For instance, when I looked at the video clip in mac, there was a text overlay that displayed the time and date. When I look at it in Windows quicktime, the quality has degraded to an extent that the numbers are no longer readable. Besides the overall quality difference in playback between mac and pc quicktime, there are no other noticeable artifacts. Also, I tried viewing the video in VLC (video lan client) on windows, and it looks perfectly fine.
    Ray

    seems like this is a PC Quicktime issue rather than an FCP issue, you may have more success in resolving the problem if you post your question on the Quicktime for Windows forum
    that said, you might want to check the Quicktime Player preferences on your PC (Edit > Preferences > Player Preferences)
    make sure you have checked the "Use high quality video setting when available" checkbox
    good luck

  • I install Mountain Lion on my MacBook Pro and freezing after waking up and is impossible restart

    I install mountain lion on my macbook pro late 2009 and freezing after waking up and is impossible restart

    Restart your mac in Safe Mode by holding down the 'shift' key while it powers up. You'll know if you've entered Safe Mode correctly if you see a progress bar underneath the grey Apple logo screen. Let go of the shift key when you see that, wait for the progess bar to complete then log in.
    After log in, go to
     > System Preferences... Users & Groups and remove everything from the 'Login Items' tab.
    If you have any anti-virus software installed (Sophos, F-Secure, VirusBarrier, Mackeeper) uninstall it while in Safe Mode.
    Restart your mac normally and test.
    Any improvement?

  • Can't open quicktime movie that I exported from FCP 5. Help!

    Can't open quicktime movie that I exported from FCP 5. Help!

    What arrow?
    Have you tried opening the file in FCP?
    If there is no error message and it will not play in QT7, it is quite possible the file is corrupted. You will need to go back to the original project and re-export the file.

  • Cannot Open Excel File after exporting from Disco Plus

    Hi there,
    I got a question from one user having issue with opening Excel file after exporting from Disco Plus.
    The report has been using for a while and he is using Excel 2003 version and Discoverer 10g(10.1.2.2), he never got this kind of error before, just recently got error.
    After exporting from Disco Plus he saved file on his desktop and when he tries to open the excel it says "Cannot be Accessed, can be corrupted...." but this is not from network drive since he saved file on local desktop or C drive.
    Also not for all reports, only this particular report and only specific parameter, for example for parameter 2008 Feb opened successfully, but for2009 Feb he gets this error when trying to open excel.
    i tried in excel 2007 also , i dont think this is Excel version error, am not sure.
    Also after go live last week (we upgraded database from 9i to 10g) but i am not sure this causes ,since for one parameter working, for other parameter not working.
    Actually we should get one window for Macro when we try to open excel, but he is not getting it seems.
    Any ideas/thoughts on this would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks for your help

    Rod,
    Thanks for your quick response on this.
    Yes, we can export to other formats as well, but actually exporting is working, after saving the file on our local desktop/drive and when we try to open we get this kind messages or we cannot open the file, we should get message window for Macro to enable/disable but for this report we are not getting this either,
    Also this happens only for specific parameters,like i mentioned above it works I mean excel file opens for one set of parameters but for some other set of parameters cannot open.
    For example :- when we enter FEB 2008 it works, if we enter FEB 2009 it won't open the file.
    This is weird
    I am still working on this issue, may be better to recreate the report again might be helpful,
    Any ideas/comments/thoughts would be great
    Thanks

  • Exporting from FCP and using Compressor at the same time?

    Is it ok to export from FCP and use compressor at the same time? I am exporting a Self-Contained, Current Setting Quicktime Movie, and using Compressor to compress a similar HDV file to Mpeg2?

    Only in FCP 7.

  • PDFs dull in Acrobat after exporting from Indesign - again

    Hi folks,
    I am aware of a previous post which discussed this issue which was apparently resolved, but it appears to have reared its ugly head again. The problem - since updrading to Mavericks and the Creative Cloud, pdfs in Acrobat are very dull after export from Indesign and it is not a transparency blend or Indesign issue. I understand Adobe blamed Apple for not updating their colour management software and the reply from Adobe was:
    "We have found the root cause of this issue and are in process of providing a fix. Once this is done, we will test it to make sure that it works as expected and will release an update patch for all our users."
    I am running the latest version or everything but it appears to still be a problem. I have also uninstalled Acobat XI and tried earlier versions without success. I have a print job to send off tomorrow and I am very nervous about how this will print.

    Sorry about that, I apparently forgot to attach the file; have done so now.
    The method I'm using for creating outlines is simply to use the "Create Outlines" command under the Type menu within InDesign. Then I create my PDF files by using the Export command under the File menu and choosing the PDF/X1a option. 99% of the time I get perfect results, it's only when I try to make outline type that I encounter this problem. You'll clearly see the artifacts in question in the example attached.
    I don't know whether or not the press would have printed these artifacts, as you suggest, since no printer has been willing to execute a file that shows any anomaly in the proof process. I can't say that I blame them.
    Hopefully you will see what I'm talking about and can recommend a solution, though I like your idea of simply giving them a properly executed file and then telling them to get a life. It hasn't worked so far, as I unfortunately deal with a lot of Neanderthals around here, but I suppose it's worth putting forth again the next time this issue arises. It will.
    By the way, no print house of my choosing is this far behind the curve, if at all. These cavemen are always printers who have long-standing relationships with my clients, and for whatever reason (generally lowest cost I'm sure), the clients think they hung the moon. We, of course, no otherwise, but it does it profit a designer to tell his client he or she is crazy for using a printer who is a decade behind the technology curve.
    We cowboy up and seek solutions, eh?

  • IPad crashing and freezing after 8  ios updates

    My iPad 1 has been crashing and freezing after completing the most recent ios updates, what could be wrong?

    Can there be any person who can say that Apple treats customers as valuable persons ?
    Way how IPAD 2 users are treated, served and issues solved shows clearly how they just care of new purchases. All crashes, slowness, battery consumption, extremely bad user experience with slow and jamming UI etc... Anyway this is over now with me as I'm moving out from IPAD / IOS due this experience. Ride was a good but now its over as trust is totally destroyed by Apple.
