Visual Glitches in 720p HD Exported Footage on Final Cut Pro

Hi...
I'm working with Final Cut Pro, on a brand new Mac Book Pro. My footage has come from a Kodak Zi8 video Camera. It was shot at 720p, and the format is MOV.
I've cut up all my footage into a nice little video diary, with simple cross dissolves, and a few text overlays. Nothing fancy. But when I export it, my final file has a ton of visual glitches throughout the length of the video. A lot of the transitions it freezes on and then comes in after.
I'm exported as a self-contained MOV file. I've never had this problem with SD footage. Am I doing something wrong? Help please.

ok... How would i go about converting the footage, considering that the footage comes off the camera in it's raw state in that format. What program should I use... and what difference would it make.
My editing process ran smoothly... it was when I exported the file that I noticed the glitches.
I always export as a high quality quicktime format. Until I clicked the "recompress all frames" option, it wasn't rendering the transitions and text overlays correctly.
The final result looks great now... for a cheap "HD" non 3 CCD camera. See it here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H4rNajjeURM
I have a Panansonic HVX, with a P2 card that I could shoot and edit at 1080i, but for simple video diaries, I need a quick solution for editing this footage. And imovie doesn't give me the versatility that FCP does.

    What device?

    How are you importing it?
    Can you find the external audio with Finder?
    Where is your destination file when you import it?

    How do I revert to original footage in Final Cut Pro X version 10.0.9?
    For some reason I have lost some audio in my timeline and would like to start again but cannot get the original footage?
    Only the edited version which is no good without the audio?
    Please  Help

    What format is your problem clip? Are there wave forms visible in the section without sound?
    Right click on the clip in the event broswer and choose Reveal in Finder; open the clip in Quick Time to confirm that there is sound throughout at that stage of your workflow.

  • How do I set up my Sony HDR-FX1000 to import footage to Final Cut Pro 7, I get an error message.

    how do I set up my Sony HDR-FX1000 to import footage to Final Cut Pro 7, I get an error message "attempt to capture video without a video device selected. Please select a video device in your capture presets and try again."

    Hi,
      1. Make sure you have the camera connected via Firewire (i link)
    2. The Camera is turned to "play" and, if you are capturing HDV,  in the camera menu, it is set to i link "OFF"

  • Command to Export project as Final Cut Pro XML from jsx script

    Hi All,
    Can somebody get me the command to export the project as final cut pro xml from jsx script.
    I was using the extension builder script earlier for cs6 panel development, so we were using pjct.exportFinalCutProXML("pathname");
    Now I am working for panel in Premiere CC so working on HTML 5 panel and qe dom scripting(.jsx).
    In some jsx examples i got there is script to export sequence as final cut pro xml but cannot get the code for project export.
    project.activeSequence.exportAsFinalCutProXML(entire_out_path);
    Also please let me know if there are any kind of reference available about all the functions and properties in the pe dom scripting for premiere pro cc.
    I am using premiere pro cc 7.1, windows 7, Eclipse Kepler.
    Thanks in advance,
    Anoop NR

    When you reimport the exported project XML to FCP, do you get the full project or just the single bin/sequence? If you get the full project then it sounds like you need Premiere help, not FCP help ... have you tried asking on the Adobe forums? If you only get the single bin/sequence then it seems you might have inadvertently selected those prior to creating the project export. Try making sure that your FCP Browser window is active and that you have not selected anything within that window prior to using the File > Export > XML command. If that still causes issue then you might try using an earlier FCP XML version.
    Hope it helps

  • OMF won't export out of final cut pro.

    Exporting a 93min 1920x1080 HD timeline to OMF
    5 second handles tried 2 second handles as well.
    OMF won't export out of final cut pro. Get error message there is a 2 gb limit.
    Final cut 6.0.6
    Have deadline. Didn't see it on any forum. Help!! Thanks!!

    Seems like a weird thing to not be able to do since it's called final cut PRO...
    Bagging on Final Cut Pro for OMF? HA! OMF has been around LONG BEFORE FCP was introduced. It isn't an FCP issue...OMF technology is VERY old. Over 20 years I believe. I used it on Avid...and it always had a 20GB limit.
    You cannot deliver 1 track via OMF. You can ask the audio person. I know that Avid now allows you to export an AAF...but FCP doesn't do AAF. For embedded audio I think that OMF is the only way. SO you have to work within the limitations of that format.

  • How can I import DVD footage in Final Cut Pro X

    I want to edit a showreel of my own work in Final Cut Pro X (version 10.1.4). A lot of my old footage is only available on DVD. I need to get this footage into Final Cut Pro X but don't know how to do this. There are programs to convert DVD to DV but I don't know which one to use, and how to use them.

    The script provided by MPEG Streamclip worked for me.
    But there is an alternate way, which is basically doing by hand what the script does.
    The actual component that is needed is stored inside an archive file in the inside the package. This file needs to be copied to a place where the system can see it.
    Here are detailed instructions. Be sure you fully understand before putting any files in the Library folders, as described below. No guarantees, but if followed correctly I believe this works.
    1) Double-click the .dmg file.
    2) Inside there are two folders. Open the one that says "For Quicktime 6.4 or later..."
    3) Control-click the QuickTimeMPEG32.pkg and choose "Show Package Contents".
    4) Copy the file "Archive.pax.gz" somewhere else on your mac - I will use the Desktop as an example.
    5) Double click the copy of "Archive.pax.gz" on your desktop. It will expand and create a folder on the desktop called "System".
    6) Inside the folder called "System" is a folder "Library" and then "Quicktime", with a single file called "QuickTimeMPEG2.component".
    This is the file that MPEG Streamclip needs!
    7) I suggest you place this file in your own user's Library. To do this, hold down the option key and select Library from the Go menu in the Finder. There, if it does not exist already, create a folder "QuickTime" and copy the component there. This should work.
    Note: the script actually places the component in a different location - one which I think should not be messed with (inside /System/Library).
    I think it should work in the user's Library, but if not I would put in /Library (the Library at the root of the drive) before trying the location above.

  • Inputting footage from Final Cut Pro

    I have input footage into Final Cut Pro, but would now like to try iMovie '09.
    Can i move my footage from Final Cut into iMovie or do i have to input all over again?

    iMovie should read all your FCP footage including ProRes movies as long as it's the same mac or another mac with FCP installed. Make a new folder in 'iMovie Events' and place your FCP movies. Next time you launch iM09 it will build thumbnails and footage will be read to use.

  • How to encode Panasonic HDC-TM700 footage for Final Cut Pro?

    How may I encode Panasonic HDC-TM700 footage for Final Cut Pro? It is 1080p/ 50 fps (in Europe)....

    I have not bought the camera yet so I cannot try. I have heard that the footage is not suppose to be supported that easily since it is 28 MBS "Avchd?" format. However people seem to be able to edit it in Imovie....

  • Flash Video Exporter plugin for FInal Cut Pro

    Does anybody know how to install the Flash Video Exporter
    plugin for Final Cut Pro so it shows up as an option in FCP?
    I want to create FLVs directly from FCP.
    Thanks

    This is on the intro page:

    your machine to use the Flash Video Exporter with your video
    editing application. The only exception is using the exporter in
    Demo Mode.

  • Exporting a JPEG in 4:3 from video footage in Final Cut pro is impossible

    I'm trying to export a screen grab from final cut pro as a jpg. It's easy to export a jpg image, but as far as I can tell, it is completely impossible to export it as a 4:3 aspect ratio image. My video footage is all 4:3 but all of the jpg images I try to export come out squished into 16:9. This is driving me crazy!
    Here is what I'm doing . . .
    Export >Using Quicktime Conversion >Format (Still Image)
    From their I've tried every setting you can imagine and FCP still obstinately refused to allow me to export a jpg image in it's true proportions.
    Please prove me wrong.

    Awesome! You rock moblie! Thanks a lot for the info. I was wondering why the image proportions were correct in photoshop (ie. 720x480, I thought those were 4:3 dimensions, but I guess it's just resolution?). I adjusted the image in photoshop to be 720x534 pixels and it looks fine now.
    I realize this isn't the smartest question in the world, but why isn't 720x480 a 4:3 aspect ratio? I don't really understand aspect ratio all that well (as you can tell).
    Thanks again!
