What is the best way to make my file in FCPX Compatible for a DVD.

I am working with a file that is about 53 minutes in length.  The video is broken up into 14 3to5 minute videos.  During my project, as I completed each video, I saved a master file and shared as APPLE PRO RES so that I wouldnt lose anything as this is my first time working with FCPX.  This made a hi-def quicktime file of each video (came out great). Now I need to put the entire project together.  My individual master files are about 4g a piece and I would imagine putting them together, will be way too large to make a dvd with.
My question is what is the best way to put it all together and export/share? I have all of the original projects still in FCPX, do i copy and paste them into one big file? Then share, and If I share what format should i share with?  I need to take the file, throw it on a external HD and put on my laptop to create the DVD in IDVD. Needs to be decent quality for the DVD.  I have read that I can create a DVD right from FCPX, but that would be impossible as I am working on a new imac with no burner!
ANY HELP WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED!

All sounds good.
Create a new project and paste your 14 videos (projects) sequentially into it, Perhaps insert a gap clip and put in chapter markers if you want. Share>DVD. Should create a high quality disk.
Good luck.

  • What is the best way to make a DVD from iMovie

    What is the best way to make a DVD from iMovie?
    I am using iMovie 06 (Naturally) with iDVD 08. I have always used;
    iMovie 06, File > Share to iDVD 08. And got pretty good results.
    Some say the best way is to quit iMovie 06, open iDVD and import the movie from the Media button.
    I have tried both methods in the results look the same. I'm interested in getting the very best quality possible.

    You likely have one of the most expensive media converter boxes on the market today.
    But does it work well with most macs? (my guess is that it does). But more specifically can it "handshake" with an intel based mac? I personally haven't tried it.
    But you may want to read this for yourself if you haven't already:

    Assuming it works then the best format is .dv which this unit will support apparently.

    I liek your idea of having multiple images in a grid. I think
    that would be the best bet as you mentioned. Having one big picture
    would be hard to distinguish the sub-areas with mouse coordinates.
    I think checking the coordinates for the mouse would be very
    tedious because I would have to check for the left boundary, the
    right, top, and bottom for each sub-area!
    What do you mean by using button components and reskinning.
    Is this simply using buttons and changing the way they look? I'm
    just trying to save time and memory, because if I had a 10 by 10
    grid, thats a hundred buttons. Wouldn't that slow down the machine
    alot? And for that matter wouldn't having a grid of 10 by 10 images
    also by the same deal?
    Thanks for the input, I'm just trying to find the most
    efficient way to do it.

  • What is the best way to make a program fit different monitor resoultions?

    In our lab all our test stations have 1280x1024 resoultion monitors. In the "other lab" all the test station monitors are 1440x900 resoultion.
    Now I am tasked with making my programs run on the test stations in the other lab. I have tried setting the options "maintain proportions of windows for different monitor resoultions" and "Scale all object on front panel as the windows resizes" and of course neither one of these options really does what I would expect it to do.
    What is the best way to make programs fit different monitor resoultions?

    I resize the Front Panel when the program start to fit the monitor resolution.  After that, I use the "SBE_Determine If Screen Resized.vi" from TomBrass (http://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW/Resizing-controls-on-a-tab-control-within-a-pane/td-p/1520244 ).  This vi is very useful if you don't want to monopolize the CPU with the "Panel Resize" event.
    I don't like this function for a couple reasons.  First for the example you don't need any custom code to handle the window resizing, just use a couple splitters.  Even if you did need to handle the resize, you only resize after the mouse is up after the resize which is not how normal Windows programs work they resize as the mouse moves.  So I modified the VI to resize objects as you resize the window.  Then because doing this can generate 100 events very quickly, I use a boolean in a shift register to make sure that we only handle the resize event if there is no new resize events after 0ms.  This essentially makes a lossy queue and handles the last resize event.

    What is the best way to make drawings an notes during class (on my iPad), which I can add to my (digital) handout later on?!

    Hello BDAqua, thanx for the suggestions. Before I saw this reply I tried to first quit the finder and then to relaunch the Finder but that resulted was a blank gray screen.
    In the end I ended up having to power down the iMac.
    Fortunately the RAID array that was "active" seems to be fine and also has a firewire 800 connection so I can use it_ just not with thunderbolt until this issue is solved.
    I'm going to check in the Applications>Utilities>system log to see if any clues are evident_ thank you for the suggestion.
    PS: Nothing of note was obvious as a root cause in the Activity Monitor though.
    hmmm....I was told that the Helios and seritek card were compatable and that the Helios didn't require any drivers..it will be a drag if there isn't an easy fix for this since this new PCIe card from seritek is the first to offer port multiplier compatibility for eSATA to thunderbolt...since they are both new I'm hoping that an OS upgrade will be the fix (presently7.2)...we shall see.

  • What is the best way to make  certain cost centers as REQUIRING an internal

    Hello,
    What is the best way to make  certain cost centers as REQUIRING an internal order (when entering invoices in the accounts payable module u2013 transaction code FB60). At the present, if a cost center requires an internal order, and the employee who is  is entering the invoice in FB60 forgets to include the Internal Order, the invoice is incorrectly costed.
    Regards,
    Saeed

    Hai !!!
    The below method can solve your problem
    1.Create Internal order for each cost center from transaction code KO01 - Create and  enter the cost center under Requesting  CCtr
    2. Enter internal order or costcenter / while user post the transaction
        Example Fb60
    Regards

  • What is the best way to make PSD into HTML for emails

    What is the best way to make PSDs into HTML for emails? Will the new feature in Dreamweaver work for emails as well? I am using Cheetah mail, but I need to be able to turn PSDs into HTML so I can use it in Cheetah mail.  I have a general idea of how to do this, but I'm stumped about where to begin.

    Use PShop for images only.  Use DW to create your tables and inline CSS styles.
    Many e-mail clients do not show images for security reasons.  So graphics heavy e-mails are not an optimal way to communicate with your mailing list.

  • What is the best way to make skin uniform (not necessarily blurring it!)

    Hi,
    I have some photographs where the skin of the model's leg is not of uniform brighteness. Without blurring it, I have tried the clone stamp but it is very difficult to not introduce further variations in brightness.
    What is the best way to make skin uniform in brightness (actually, the same color!)?
    Thanks,
    Juan Dent

    I know EXACTLY what you mean.  I was doing something exactly on those lines just yesterday.
    It's not trivial, but it's doable.
    For hard "spots", you can try the Spot Healing Brush first.
    But here's a neat trick I sometimes use that can nicely increase the overall smoothness:
    1.  Select just the skin area.
    2.  Contract the selection a bit and feather the edge, just to make sure you don't mess up the edges.
    3.  Filter - Noise - Median, and adjust the radius to be fairly large.  Watch the image to see the smoothness level.
    4.  Edit - Fade and knock back the effect, so that it's not perfect, but makes a subtle improvement.
    Then, for gentle darkening lightening, try the Burn and Dodge Tools, set to a low Exposure level (and possibly with Airbrush Mode on).  Work gently.
    Cloning with low opacity can sometime help as well.

  • What's the best way to make a bootable, incremental backup of Boot Camp?

    I'm curious as to what's the best way to make a bootable and incremental backup of Boot Camp, similar to Time Machine? I'd essentially like it to replace System Restore as well, because that's currently not working for me (System Restore backups get deleted every time I restart).

    System Restore gets backed up to what and where?
    You need system image one way or another, and you want data and file backup.
    Windows 8 takes File History feature is similar to TimeMachine but not for system.
    Take a look at Paragon Hard Disk Manager 12 Suite, has Boot Camp support.

  • What is the best way to name a file?

    What is the best way to name a file? Use "_" so that the characters make one, long name? Why do that?

    Another take on naming files, particularly image files, is like this:
    I use a file remaning application like Name Mangler to back, sequentially rename the photos.  I put them in a folder with a similar name.  Using the format I do, YYYY-MM-DD- Description-001.jpg, they are easy to sort by date by sorting alphanumerically.

  • The best way to make proxy files for editing?

    Hi,
    What is the best way to create proxy files for editing? I'm thinking Apple ProRes 422 (Proxy). The original material is DVCPRO HD 1080i50, shot on Panasonic P2 cards, and copied on to hard drives. But as there is about 400 hours of it, I desperately need to find a clever way to make smaller proxy files for editing.
    I would also like to make the proxies at a smaller resolution than 1080i for the editing process.
    I guess it's possible to import the media and then batch export it to the proxy format, but Is there a better way?

    I'm not able to ingest the material directly from the P2-folders as ProRes 422 (Proxy). No matter how much I change the import settings in "Log and transfer", it still ingests as DVCPRO HD 1080i50.
    Correct. DVCPRO HD P2 can only come in as DVCPRO HD. You can't transcode it. AVCIntra P2 is what you can bring in as ProRes. (Sorry Tom).
    I can of course transcode it form there to the proxy format and delete the ingested files,
    Why? Why do that? You have ingested all the files, right? You ALREADY HAVE THEM...right? Why not work with them? You obviously have the room (20TB). Why import all this, then now take the days it would require to make proxies?
    Making the ProRes-proxies directly from the P2-material seems more logical, or isn't it?
    DVCPRO HD P2 cannot come in as anything else, so the offline/online workflow for them doesn't work unless you import it all, then transcode to a smaller format...but then need to keep the originals online to relink to when you are done. If you wanted to do an offline/online, you needed to research this better...or test it...before you shot your hundreds of hours only to find that what you want to do won't work.

  • What is the best way to safeguard my files and pictures before I send off my MacBook Pro to get fixed?

    What is the best way to safeguard my files and pictures before I send off my MacBook Pro to get fixed? I am running Mavericks and use an AirPort Time Machine to back-up all my files.

    Back up all data on the internal drive(s) before you hand over your computer to anyone. You need at least two independent backups to be completely safe. There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional—ask if you need guidance.
    If privacy is a concern, erase the data partition(s) with the option to write zeros* (do this only if you know how to restore to an empty drive.) Don’t erase the recovery partition, if present.
    Keeping your confidential data secure during hardware repair
    Apple also recommends that you deauthorize a device in the iTunes Store before having it serviced.
    *An SSD doesn't need to be zeroed.

  • What is the best way to get a tune created in GB for iPad into iMovie for iPad?

    What is the best way to get a tune created in GB for iPad into iMovie for iPad?

    Haven't done it myself, but seems like the correct workflow would be:
    From GarageBand (iOS), My Songs -> select song -> Send to iTunes
    From iMovie HD (iOS), My Project -> Insert Media -> select by song name
    I'm not sure if GB creates its own playlist for tagging exported songs in your iTunes library so selecting by name would be the next-best method.
    Have you tried this?
