What compression to use when Exporting HD video from final cut pro PAL setting

Hi there
I'm trying to export my HD video from Final cut Pro so that I can edit it in DVD studio Pro. I initially exported it on H.264 setting however it then gives me the message 'NTSC assets cannot be imported into PAL projects' It was edited with PAL setting so I think it must be the conversion but i'm not sure which option to use.....been really struggling to get the 1 hour footage under 4.5gb without losing too much quality...
Any advice greatly appreciated!
thanks

Just to add two suggestions.
1) Consider putting your four movies on two disks.
2) Bring your movies into Compressor and duplicate the stock DVD setting. In the Encoding pane of the Inspector, select a CBR and dial it back to around 6.2 to 6.5 Mbs. In Preview mark a small section and submit; you'll get 2 elementary streams, with m2v and AC3 extensions. Bring that into DVDSP and evaluate results. Adjust as necessary. (This is to avoid waiting out very long encodes and then having to start again from scratch if you get disappointing results.)

  • I can't export my video from final cut pro.

    I'm having trouble exporting anything from final cut pro x because there isn't any share button that I was use to before. It pretty much seems like there are no options seeing as they have simplified it to the point where there are no longer any options. Anyways here is a screen shot of my final cut hopefully someone will be able to help me.

    The Share menu changed in 10.0.6, and is now customizable from the Preferences of FCPX:
    You find the Share menu to the far right in the toolbar, as dastoelk wrote.

  • Can't Export Any Videos From Final Cut Pro X?

    Hello all-
    I just downloaded FInal Cut Pro X today, and as I tried exporting my first video to YouTube, I found I had no luck. I am able to select the option to export to YouTube, enter in my account details, edit the video preferences, but when I click submit nothing happens. The little export box just disappears. This happens for every single one of my share options.
    Anyone have any ideas on how to fix this? I'm a little peeved that I just spent 300 dollars on a software that doesn't even let me export the video.
    Thanks much,
    Megan

    Did you open the background task window?

  • Burning a video from Final Cut Pro using iDVD

    When I export and save my video from Final Cut Pro to a folder (export->Using Quick Time Conversion). When I do that there are several different videos that are saved in my folder (ie-Kelly Michelle; Kelly Michelle-av1; Kelly Michelle-av2; Kelly Michelle-av3; Kelly Michelle-av4; Kelly Michelle-av5).
    iDVD is the program I need to use, I do not have any other programs. Therefore, I import the file to iDVD and once everything is ready in iDVD I try to burn the dvd. However, in the last stages of burning a window pops up and says that "an error was found during the burning process". It does not tell me what kind of an error it is. Does anyone have any advice or a step by step process that I need to do in order to burn my dvd successfully.

    The simplest way to prepare a video for iDVD is to *Export/Quicktime Movie* (NOT Using Quicktime Conversion), select Current Settings, Audio and Video and, depending on your needs, other 2 options:
    o- +Make Movie Self-Contained+ is preferred to have an independent movie (you can move the exported file, you can continue editing your FCP project before burning the exported version, etc.) but requires more disk space and more time for exporting.
    o- +Chapter Markers+ (NOT All Chapters) must be selected if you created Chapter Markers in FCP (markers in the timeline, not the clip, and clicked the Add Chapter Marker button in the marker dialog).
    The resulting .mov file (whether self-contained or reference) may be easily imported to iDVD.

  • Exporting HD Video From Final Cut Express HD

    When attempting to export HD video from Final Cut Express using "uncompressed" setting, I notice that the output quality seems to be limited to "medium." If no compression is used, wouldn't that imply that the video quality should equal original footage?

    All FCE Timelines are using the AIC (Apple Intermediate Codec) for HD stuff if you selected the correct Easy Setup before you started your Project.
    If you export as a Quicktime Movie then you are getting exactly the same export quality as the Timeline.
    The Quicktime Movie can be either Self-Contained or a Reference file. Reference Files are great because they use/reference you exisating captured files on your Scratch Disc, use less space and export fast.
    However if you need to play the export somewhere other than your Mac your will require the file to be Self-Contained.
    QuickTime Conversion does just that, Converts to whatever you select.

  • Can't Export Video from Final Cut Pro

    After updated to OS Maverick, I can no longer export video from Final Cut Pro.

    10.0.2, I think this is where the problem is.
    I will update to the latest (10.0.9) and update this thread to see if this will resolve my problem.

  • How do I export a project from Final Cut Pro onto my desktop?

    How do I export a project from Final Cut Pro to my desktop as a movie?

    Can anyone please help me.. when I click on my timeline in my project library and try to export movie nothing happens! and when I  try to "share" to youtube I get an error message stating that it cannot be exported because it contains "no video"... The 4 minute music video that I've created with shots off my Canon T2i looks and plays great....If I uploaded the videos into Final Cut but did not save them on my desktop or anywhere else on the Mac would this be a reason to get this message? I have never experienced this before...the only option under "share" that works is "email"

  • Cannot export to Compressor from Final Cut Pro 5.1

  • Exporting 'flv' files from Final Cut Pro

    Hi,
    I was wondering if there was such a program that would export
    'flv' files straight from Final Cut Pro time line for my mac. I
    know that you can purchase Adobe Flash which enables this, however
    I don't wish to buy the whole program. Is there a video encoder
    program or something that you can purchase that will enable me to
    export from FCP?

    Not sure about FCP, tho I would expect the latest Final Cut
    Studio to be able to do
    it.
    Anyway,
    Quick Time Player can export MOV to FLV. Not sure whether
    it's the regular player,
    I'm having the PRO version for many years and this one allow
    that kind of export.
    You being a Mac user, I guess that's the easiest and cheapest
    way to get FLV out of your
    available tools.

  • Exporting Canon XHA1 from final cut pro?

    I have a problem with my export. my footage plays fine in my browser when playing on final cut pro (before export). i have been exporting for YOU TUBE as a quick time conversion (mp2 & mp4) but when i play it back the footage cant keep up with the sound. the quality is ok (could be better) but the footage jumps.
    i imported on sequence preset 1080i50. is this correct or can someone suggest something else.
    im not sure what the best settings are if someone could please help. i want the footage to keep its quality but it also has to be compatible with you tube.
    thanks

    ok, your description is a little confused. What version of FCS are you using? In 3 the Share to YouTube works just fine. Are you trying to export a 1920x1080 image? If so that might be an issue. I note that you're running a G5. It might be time to move that forward a little bit.

  • Exporting to motion from final cut pro

    I have a anamorfic DV sequence in final cut pro. When ever I slow down a clip in the sequence or add a video filter and then export to MOtion it sends it without iits effects or speed changes.

    yes, that is correct. there is a section in the motion manual devoted to integration with fcp. on page 960 of the pdf manual it states, "When exporting to Motion, Final Cut Pro does not export properties omitted from the
    list above, such as filters, generators, and transitions. Time remapping and speed
    changes also are not exported."

  • How to export flv file from Final Cut Pro?

    I'm using Final Cut Pro and try to export edited video in "Flv" format. However, there is no such choice and only "Flc" available? My friend has the same version of Final Cut Pro and there is "Flv" format to choice, why?

    I use QT conversion: file > Export > Using QuickTime Conversion >
    Then, under Format I only have "3G, AIFF, FLC, iPod, QuickTime Movie...", no "Flash video (FLV)" as my friend's computer?
