Trouble exporting uncompressed anamorphic 16:9 .AVI with FCP

When I export my widescreen movie to an uncompressed .AVI - file
with Final Cut Pro,
it resizes the image horisontally,
so that the image comes out square-ish
from [ ]
to [ ]
the height is still correct though...
I have tried every setting I can find.
Anyone know what I might be doing wrong?

Actually the format is PAL dv file,
but does that mean I will need to export the movie in 720 x 405 pixels?
Another response said that the file is fine -
it's just handled by Quicktime player and other players as a non-anamorphic file...
I simply just want the avi image to be unscaled,
uncompressed
and with no lost frames

What is the best seeting to export as smaller file size AVI from FCP?

Hi, I know the topic sounds very similar to many of AVI post it had been up, however, somehow, I do not find the right answer that I'm looking for.
I have a couple animation created from QT as "image sequence".
I simply want to export as avi file.
Here is the question I have.
1. If I choose DV/DVCPRO-NTSC, and choose scan mode as Progressive, I get interlacing looking quality video.
2. If I choose compressor type as "NONE" then even I set as "least" quality, the file size will be over 1G..although, that's the quality I'm trying to archive.
Is there any other setting I can choose to get good quality with lower file size avi? I have seen or download avi file on the net with very good quality and still download-able file size...

What is the QT method? (Export from QT Player?)
Yes, 10 hour plus is ridiculous. I'm guessing that there was either something wrong with your Internet connection and/or at the You Tube end of the uploasd/compression process.
Innocentius and Hugh are right; using Compressor (or MPEG Streamclip) and using YT's uploader is the most reliable workflow.(Since Google changed the account verification process, there have been reports of upload problems using Share>You Tube.) In addition, you have more control over the quality of your movie. You can create multiple custom settings in Compressor and then Share > Compressor custom settings. It will go faster if you export out of FCP as a Pro Res 422 file; should take 3-4 minutes top. The Web encode for a 3 minute video in Compressor might take 15 minutes, depending on your system. MPEG Streamclip is probably a little faster.

AVI with FCP?

I have some client supplied footage from a FLIP camera that is 30 FPS, 4.5Mbps 640x480 Advanced Profile MPEG4 AVI. I would like to convert this footage to a format I can use in FCP. I have tried transcoding to Apple DV/DVCPRO - NTSC with Streamclip but the audio is flat after the conversion. This is progressive footage, any way to preserve quality or must I go to interlaced? Any suggestions? Thanks!

Hi,
Sorry, Luca is Gogiangigo and Mr Holmes is Nick Holmes who is the Mpeg Streamclip expert on these forums.
In Quicktime player export as Quicktime Movie and click on options, you will find evrything you need under "settings" for both video and audio. Compressor/DVDVCPRO NTSC full quality for video and change audio to 48khz. Good luck.

Trouble exporting with QuickTime 7 to UNCOMPRESSED 10-bit 4:2:2

I have succeeded with shorter videos, but my 90 minute video returns "error -2125".
Somehow I managed to do this before, I'm not sure what has changed on my system. Does anyone else have trouble exporting to Uncompressed 10-bit 4:2:2 ? I'm now exporting to ProRes instead, but would prefer uncompressed video for the sake of quality.

You don't say what's the source of your clips.
If standard DV (..though I doubt that an agency would accept standard def video any more..) NTSC DV is compressed in the camera as 4:1:1, and PAL DV is compressed as 4:2:0 ..so you won't get true 4:2:2 from normal DV, unless you're using a broadcast camera (..probably feeding into the capture device via SDI inputs).
If the source was tape-based HDV or any other hi-def source, then iMovie converts that, during import, into Apple Intermediate Codec, and wouldn't be able to output proper Uncompressed 4:2:2 material.
For Uncompressed 4:2:2, I think you'll need to be using a dedicated capture card - and massive-capacity hard discs! - to be able to import the material in the first place.
iMovie certainly isn't the program to handle pro video of this nature.
Ask in the Final Cut Pro Discussions..
"..I've also tried doing this on my Macbook with Intel processor.." ..but maybe that's just not fast enough (older Mac portables have "shared graphics memory" ..meaning their graphics processor may have to compete with the main processor to temporarily grab free RAM)!

Trouble Exporting movie with Media Encoder, weird clip sizes and errors

I'm using Premiere Pro CS4 on a Windows XP Professional with 2gb RAM and 1.6GHz. I'm trying to export a short movie (2.5 minutes) with no audio. It is just a bunch of stitched together videos imported from 1280x 1024. I'm sizing them into 720 x 480. I get very poor video quality unless I use uncompressed formats, so I am using an Uncompressed AVI with UYVY Codec and 1.0 square pixels.
1st problem: I get an error running more than around 35-50seconds:
The Operation was interrupted by user
- Source File: C:\DOCUME~1\imurphy\LOCALS~1\Temp...
- Output File: C:\Documents and Settings\imurphy\My Documents...
- Preset Used: Custom
- Video: 720x480, 25 [fps], Progressive, Quality 100
- Audio:
- Bitrate:
- Encoding Time: 00:05:03
7/15/2009 1:18:56 PM : Encoding Failed
Error compiling movie.
Unknown error.
Its very consistent with having this error. I'm pretty sure there is plenty of room for the files, it only gets up to around 2.5gb. I can watch the movie up to where the error occurs and there is no problem.
2nd: I tried spliting the video up into 4 different files and the last clip won't match the others. I export all of them the same way, with 1.0 aspect ratio and the first 3 come out saying .9091NTSC. The last one will say it is 1.0 ratio if I do it the same way or 0.9091 NTSC if I change it, but either way, it will come out wider that the other clips (they will all still have black space on sides).

Is it possible to export uncompressed .avi files over 4 gigabytes?

I want to export my 70+ min movie as one uncompressed .avi - file with FCP
but it turns out only 4 gigabytes of data (35-50 seconds) are visible in the exported clip. The rest is black.
How do I get around this problem?

The drive is mac standard (not FAT32) and I have checked + confirmed that the drive can take files larger than 4 gigabytes.
The .avi file I export IS the right size (200+ gigabytes).
Even though the audio and video doesn't show up after a certain point.
I use Quicktime conversion - avi (compressor : none, quality: best) etc.
I've tried saving with and without sound (48khz 16bit uncompressed)
When I save without sound, the exported file contained a little bit more video data (a few more seconds)
which supports my 4 gig limit theory.
I just want to export the movie in it's uncompressed state
for editing on a PC (premiere cs4)

Problem exporting uncompress AVI

Problem exporting uncompress AVI. The output file will have in-between frames that appear like this:
Help!

Thanks for response! It's not the player's problem (it's mpc btw), I import it into Premiere for post editing and it's disaster to see the failed rendering.
Mmm need time/Everest to find out the system info. Generally render setting is just straightforward AVI lossless/best quality with no codec assigned.

Exporting uncompressed avi

Is there a way to export footage to an uncompressed, rather than compressed, avi format?
Thanks,

File > Export > Export with QuickTime Conversion.
Set Format to AVI then click "Options".
Click "Settings" and set compression to "None".

Wrong aspect ratio or size when exporting Pal anamorph with ProRes codec!

Hi community,
I have a problem exporting a spot in the right format. The customer/the upload service provider needs PAL anamorph 16:9 in ProRes codec.
When I export my FULLHD spot to these setting, the aspect ratio/the spot size turns out wrong. When opened in QT Pro the size is 720x576, what is correct, but the anamorph size quotet in brackets reads different values, for example 1020x576 but never 1024x576, what would be correct.
The service providers online software refuses to work with these wrong nunmbers...!?
The same export settings with QT Animation codec is correct. Also when exporting the same composition with two export modules, the Animation codec is OK, the ProRes codec is wrong. No matter whether I export a PAL-format comp or stretch it while exporting the FullHD comp.
Working with After Effects CC.
Any ideas?

Don't resize the output but instead drop your full HD comp in a standard PAL widescreen comp, fit the HD comp horizontally and then render the new comp without using any resize controls.
Second option, Render your full HD comp to a frame based production master codec (prorez) and then use the Adobe Media Encoder and setup a PAL Widescreen Square Pixel preset. Here's my Pal Widescreen Prorez 422 HQ preset. It is what I use for all requests for Pal ProRez from my clients.

CS4: Exporting "lightweight" AVI with chapter marks?

Prior to CS4, I recall being able to export a "lightweight" AVI file using black video filler and the "Expand Stills" option that would contain chapter marks. You could import this AVI into Encore, where the chapter marks would be recognized, and then use the "Replace Asset" option to replace the AVI with an M2V encoded in a different encoder. This worked great--but I can't seem to get it to work any more. I'm guessing that whatever enabled this feature was forcibly extracted when the Media Encoder went solo, but if not--how the heck do I do this?

Don't see anything like that in CS3. Closest thing to it is this: Export / movie / settings / compile settings ....

Export to avi with the same quality. How ?!

Hello,
I'm using Adobe Premiere Pro CS5 to edit my video but i don't know how to export to avi file with the same quality...?!
In the previous version Premiere Pro CS3 i can export the video into avi with the same quality using Windows Media Video 9 Codec but in Premiere Pro CS5 i don't know how to do it...!!
Best Regards,
Q8Xbox

After you have downloaded and installed Lagarith and UT, reboot and just choose to Export to MS AVI, and then in the Compressor drop-down, choose the one that you want.
Good luck,
Hunt
I am agree with you Bill but how can we import these codecs into adobe premiere pro.Because it expects only .epr extension for importing presets.Is there any other way then let me know.Thanks in advance

.MOV exported to .AVI with QTpro fails to play in Windows Media Player

I have a .MOV file that I converted with 7.1.6 of QTpro to a .AVI ( DV/DVCPRO - NTSC / Best / 4:3 ) ( uncompressed 48kHz / 16bit / 2 channel ). The converted .AVI file will not play in Windows Media Player or load in Premiere. The converted .AVI will play in QT. I have previously converted .DV files to .AVI without any problems. If I load the converted .AVI with VirtualDub it says there is a missing "index" and precedes to read the entire .AVI file to "re-create" the "index".
Can anybody offer any clues as to what is going wrong?

Are you referring to a Lynda.com Compressor tutorial or one of their many PPT tutorials.
I agree that 10 Mbs is a nice general quality level – depending on your footage, of course – the content, the lighting, etc. WMV is probably the safest – although MP4 should be good as well,
Hard to be more specific except to say, Test. A preset that works well for one movie may look not-so-great applied to another.
Take a short, representative section and encode. Project the output file and see what you think.
Good luck.

Uncompressed 8-bit standard def with anamorphic?

I read somewhere about using a sequence with uncompressed 8-bit standard def with anamorphic as an option for downcoverting from hdv. I'm using fcp5 and don't see that as an option - just uncompressed 8-bit without anamorphic.
Any solutions will be greatly appreciated.

Easiest way to get there (I think) is to copy the NTSC (or PAL) DV preset, then change the codec to uncompressed 8-bit. The anamorphic will be set and you'll be properly at 480 lines instead of 486.
That I think answers your question.
But you will then be faced with a sequence which requires rendering before viewing, and after most edits. Which is a lot of work in HDV.
Consider instead converting the media itself using Compressor. Don't let the name fool you - it can also save out as uncompressed. You can take an NTSC DV preset there as well, and edit it to be uncompressed 8-bit.
