Saving from FCP to QuickTime is distorting the video

Hello all - I'm repeatedly trying to save a FCP sequence as a QuickTime file so that I can import into iDVD. Each time I save it and then open the file in either QuickTime or iDVD, the faces in the video appear very thin (as if I had converted to a widescreen format or filter - but I didn't).
Does anyone know what might be causing this?
Thanks so much for the help.

OK, here's what's going on. When the anamorphic flag is checked, the image is displayed as 16:9. The actual media is 4:3 and it is distorted horizontally to acheive the "wide screen" look. I don't work in IDVD, so I'm not sure how you make an anamorphic dvd with it. It's pretty simple in DVDSP. As far as the quicktime goes, you can set the dimensions of your export to properly reflect the "widescreen" look, or simply change how quicktime player displays the file. I'm not on my system at the moment, but do a little exploring in quicktime player and you should be able to find it. I don't have the correct pixel dimensions on hand for the quicktime export, but if you're sole purpose is creating a dvd, that's not the way to go.

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.

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.

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...

Place holder is coming after deletion of a component from live site page and distorted the allignment in IE7. Please suggest.

No need for alarm. There are several folks a day posting like threads. Most folks know these phishing attempts for what they are and merely delete with prejudice.
To the bottom line... if you wish - and I am sure Apple will take notice - you should FORWARD the email to [email protected] and delete.

How do I get video from my iPhone to iMovie? The videos download to iPhoto, but are not "available" in iMovie when I select iPhoto in event library.

How do I get video from my iPhone to iMovie? The videos download to iPhoto, but are not "available" in iMovie when I select iPhoto in event library.

I haven't launched iMovie in a while, and I've used iPhoto to import many videos from my iPhone's Camera Roll since the last time I launched and used iMovie.
iMovie prompted me to create/update the thumbnails for my iPhoto videos, along with indicating no iPhoto videos will be available with iMovie until this is completed.
Not sure how to do this manually, but this may be your problem.

After Import AVCHD from Sony CX730, IMPOSSIBLE to put the video on the Timeline!!!!!

I have bought Premiere three days ago. I am working on a AVCHD project, with clips from a Sony FS700 (1080 50p), and clips from a Sony CX730 (1080 25p). I can import the clips but for the CX730 clips it is impossible to put them on the timeline!!!!!
I can put the audio (5-1) on audio 4, but impossible to put the video... Everybody told me that Premiere support all the codec on the same project... It is not true!!!
Why????

Yes! you are right, every thing work well now!! Thanks a lot!
With my best regards.

Trim captured media from FCP in quicktime

i was wondering if there is any benefit to trimming media in quicktime that i captured in FCP. When i captured the media i left on handles big enough to build a bike from, and i was looking at cutting down the size of the media files. Is there a way to actually "cut" out the unwanted handles in final cut, or should i do it in Quicktime 7 pro?

Well, here's the issue. FCP is an editing application. You import material, you cut it down into smaller and/or re-arranged sequences and then export it as your final-- whether that is-- back to tape, to dvd, to computer playable file or any other possible medium.
It's simply a matter of not capturing more than you need, if you're concerned that you took in way too much footage. Finish up the project, archive what you have to and delete ALL of it from your drives. And drives are cheap these days, so what the heck, get a couple more. A terrabyte costs about 1000 dollars. That's cheap. Try buying a terrabyte 15 years ago! You would have had to sell your house and your kids.

Is it possible to encode FLV from FCP or Quicktime export?

I am using Final Cut Pro 3 and would like to export FLV movies either directly FCP timeline or from Quicktime export.
I have used systems with Adobe CS3 installed and they have a quicktime plug-in for encoding.
However, I've just purchased Adobe CS5.5 Production Premium and I have not gained that functionality.
Going to Adobe support is going to cost me more money (I would have thought that spending over £1700 would give me a little help).
Can anyone tell me how to get export from FCP with what I have?
Do I have use CS3 or CS4?
Or do I have to export a quicktime movie from FCP then use Adobe Media Encoder to create FLV files?
Thanks for your help.
Rod

Hi Rob,
Thanks for your info. I'm already evaluating squeeze, but the trial version doesn't have the plug-in. I would have to pay for it to check it out. As I'm not planning to pay another $600 I suppose I'll have to go with the export from FCP. However, I might just save a reference quicktime movie.

I have an Ipad Air. I have tried posting videos from Ipad (that I have saved from Nikon & I have taken with the Ipad Air) to Facebook but I am getting a pop up that video is too small and needs to be at least 1 Kb. The videos are at least 30 seconds.

Do I need to change a setting? Thanks

I have tried to post the video from the video itself and also I have tried on the Facebook app and Facebook.com. I go to select video, then I write something about the video. It's showing the video attached before I even "post"to Facebook. Then I hit post and that's when I get the pop up that the video is too small.

When i stream from mac mini to apple tv the video jerks

I have a Mac Mini and a 2ed gen Apple TV , when I stream from the mac to the Apple TV the video jerks and some time frezes, I have checked the WiFi and the Internet all are strong, streaming from my Iphone and Ipad are great. what am i doing wrong

...or it could be caused by Apple crap. I'm having the same problem. On a WIRED connection from my MacMini to an Apple TV. The network runs fine with my Windows laptop and iPad. Video streams nicely from my iPad on WiFi, but lots of jerkiness when I watch a movie from my MacMini via Apple TV, regardless of whether I'm on WiFi or wired.
Doesn't take much to work out that the problem is with the MacMini and/or Yosemite. I'm also having problems with my Internet connection slowing or cutting out intermittently, so I wonder if they're connected.

I want to use the audio from one of my clips and the video of another can I do this?

I have two different video clips that I took from my still camera. I want to use the audio from one of the clips and the video from the other at the same time in imovie can I do this and if yes how

Yes.
First go to iMovie/Preferences and make sure that the Advanced Tools are enabled.
Now, drag the clip with the Video into the project.
Drag the clip with the Audio and drop it on the first clip at the frame where you want it to begin. A popup menu should appear. Choose Audio Only. You may then want to open Inspector for the video clip (by clicking the little gear icon at the top left of the clip) and going to the audio tab. Here you can turn down the volume of the video clip, so that all you hear is the audio clip.
Another way. Put the video clip that has the Audio you want in first. Then drag the clip with the video you want and drop it on the clip that has the audio you want. A popup menu will appear. Choose CUTAWAY.

IMovie 08: Adding titles has distorted the video

I just upgraded to iMovie '08 from iMovie HD (mid project, bad idea!). I can live with the lack of features in '08 (for now) but can't figure out why something as simple as adding a title is causing the video to choke.
Everywhere I have added a title, the video gets "jerky" and out of sync with the audio on playback. Once the title dissolves, the video and audio return to normal. It doesn't seem to matter which title I use, whether I use the default font settings or change them.
Does anyone know how to resolve this?
Thanks!

If you REALLY like iMovie '08, you can add chapter markers in GarageBand(!).

Exporting video from media encoder. Half of the video export other half goes blank/black

Hi! I'm in need of help I've been trying to export this video to media encoder for about 20days now. I'm working with premiere pro cs5.5 and after effects cs5.5-
Dynamic link, I've updated the two and everything, every time I try to export my video half willl export and I believe after effects crashes and thats when the other
half of the video goes blank/black, this happens everytime, it's very frustrating and I don't know what is causing this. it actually just started.
it also does this on cs5 as well.
I am working on windows 7 HPE-510y Hewlett-Packard computer
14gb of ram

Have you checked the output in AME? I always check that before I hit go to make sure that I haven't fouled something up and that the in and out points are what I want. I spot check all along the timeline.
I'm thinking that you have some parts of the Premiere Pro project that are shots or sequences that have been "Replaced with After Effects Composotion." If this is the case, does the blackness happen in one of these shots? If it does I'd suggest trying to render that shot in AE and replace it in the PPro Timeline. If After Effects is really crashing you'll be able to find out why.
A little more detail about your project would also help.
