Widescreen export question

hello, quick question. I shot in widescreen mode, and edited in an anamorphic sequence. I am all done with my project and I want to have one widescreen copy for my computer, and one for DVD. Is there anything wrong with exporting using the conversion and telling FCP to produce an actual widescreen video and using that file for the DVD also or is it better to make 2 different files?

no, not as bad as all that. in this case it means that the video signal is passed through the DV codec one more time ... the DV data is decompressed using the DV codec for display - thats what you're seeing in the canvas - by exporting using qt conversion that data is then compressed using the chosen codec. in this case its the same codec as the source footage ... although the loss of quality in this instance will likely be minimal, impercptible to most, any recompression should be avoided when at all possible (in anolog tape terms its akin to a generational loss, like making a copy of a copy)

    Hello,
    You wrote:
    CAN THIS ERROR CAUSE BIG DESASTER TO DB IN FUTUREThe error message EXP-00091: Exporting questionable statistics just warns you that the statistics
    were exported but these statistics may be not useable.
    So, if you have to import these Tables, you may have to collect again the statistics of these Tables.
    It's not relative to this problem but why don't you use DataPump (expdp/impdp) ?
    Please find enclosed a link about DataPump, it's much more powerful than the classical export/import:

    Hi,
    >>because I exported dump from oracle10G
    Then you use the exp 10g version, right ? To move data DOWN a version(s), you need to export using that lower versions EXP tool and using IMP that lower version tool.
    Take a look at this below?

    I think that there is no problem ... but you can use also as I said before the statistics=none clause, but remember that you need to use the exp 9i version ...

  • Basic Exporting Question

    My main question is a very basic exporting question, but here is a super-condensed explanation of my big-picture goal for context:
    Large (~450 MB) aiff on CD --> trim w/ Quicktime --> small (~16 MB) MP3 in iTunes
    I would like to take an audio file (aiff) that is approximately 450 MB and export it from Quicktime and in doing so, reduce the file size and convert it to MP3. When I simply try to export it, it doesn't ask me about what size I want, nor does it give the option of MP3 formatting.
    I have figured out how to reach my goal, but it's a mess. After I make my trims in QT, I have to:
    1. select "share" instead of "export".
    2. It asks me what size I want and I select small.
    3. The file is then exported as a Quicktime movie into Mail and the size is reduced from 450 MB to about 20 MB.
    4. I then have to "right-click" on the attachment in the email that is created,
    5. save the attachment,
    6. discard the email,
    7. import the file into iTunes, and
    8. create an MP3 in iTunes to finally arrive at my goal.
    This seems like a ridiculously convoluted process to change a large aiff to a small MP3 and put it in iTunes. Any suggestions?

    Thanks. I guess the basic answer to my question is that it can't be done in one or two fell swoops. The problem is that it starts on a burned disc, and I need to make edits to it before it ends up in iTunes (to be eventually used in iWeb). I was hoping to avoid juggling back and forth between iTunes and QT. I either would have to send it back to QT to do the edits after -->iTunes-->mp3, or import the large file from the CD to QT, make the edits, save changes, import large file to iTunes, convert to mp3.

  • Exporting question #53427

    I read through exporting questions for over the last year, but I came away more confused than ever. Here is my problem (which others had, but I'm looking for the quickest solution):
    I made a 3 hour video on iMovie 8 only to read about its limitations afterward. I used information I found on some post to download iMovie 6 and then export my iMovie 8 project to it for its finalization.
    I tried to export the movie LARGE size and it took 6 hours only to end up with the message error -2125.
    I then tried to export to Quicktime, but it was scheduled to take 30+ hours.
    Is there an easier way to get the iMovie 8 project into iMovie 6 in order to complete it?
    (As a side note, I have a 2003 copy of Final Cut Pro which I have not installed. Would this be worth installing on my MacBook to transfer the project to that?)
    Thanks as always.

  • Three questions on audio volume, widescreen, export

    Hello,
    I am in the heat of building my 40 minute slideshow imovie hd6 to idvd 08 project with some important questions.
    first question: I have lots of voice audio and music loops which have been nicely edited, cleaned, normalized - all WAV files, high output, no distortion. I imported these to test into imovie then idvd and played on TV, and it was really LOUD. And some of the voices distorted a bit, and the music almost blew my speakers. I had the volume way down. Is idvd normalizing all the audio? What is happening? If I understand it, I can workaround it in Audacity. Just drop the gain a bit?
    second question: I am confused about the standard vs. widescreen. I have been thinking about doing the project in widescreen, the dvds will be distributed to folks, free of charge. My format is PAL, I live in Spain. A film making friend told me that 50% of people had widescreen tv's these days. I'm confused.
    third question: I want to both make a dvd with idvd and also have a master copy to give to production company who would rather have it in .mov format to make copies. What is the best way to export getting maximum quality of image and sound, but that I can transport to someone?
    thank you,
    Jenifer
    ps I have crossposted to imovie hd6.

    Hi
    1.
    iMovie 1 to HD 6 mainly are intended for two kind of materials (as I get it)
    • Video - StreamingDV (as from a miniDV Camera) and via FireWire
    • Audio - Except from Camera also .aiff 48kHz 16-bit
    I would
    • Convert the audio to .aiff 48kHz 16-bit
    2.
    Don't really understand. Most DVD-player can be set to match the Play-back device
    eg Widescreen or CTR-TV
    3.
    DVD is a final product with a very reduced quality.
    I only use miniDV tape and standard 4x3 TV-video as my material and to keep Maximum
    Quality I always Copy-back to tape and deliver this. Then the reciever get's
    100% of original quality.
    If You use 16x9 HD then I don't know if Copy-back to tape is a working solution
    for You. There are HDV-Cameras using a very similar tape as miniDV and this
    should also keep Max Quality.

  • Widescreen Export to Compressor - HELP!!

    I've read a few threads about this, but am still having problems getting this to work. I've shot an entire movie in 16x9 format on my DVCAM (Sony PDX10). I imported into FCP 4.5 and set the sequence to Anamorphic. All looks fine on the viewer. However, when I try to export to Compressor, I use the 90 Minute High Quality Widescreen preset - but all i get is the 4:3 version on the preview.
    Here's the weird thing: If I select a random clip and put it on another timeline NOT set to Anamorphic, when I import that to Compressor - voila. It looks widescreen as it did in FCP.
    Any ideas how to sort this out? I have to get a DVD done pretty quick and this is driving me nutz!!

  • File Export question and ID3 Tags

    First question, have tried using Apple's recommended method of using QT Pro to export movies as "iPod" but when attempting to sync to an iPod get an incompatible file format. What is the "right" export option?
    Secondly, on one file I've imported it into iTunes then set all the ID3 fields to my liking, then uploaded into iTunes U but the fields are incorrect. I've tried deleting the file from iTunes U several times and re-imported the file into iTunes and set the ID3 fields and still nothing. Any suggestions on how to get my file up and hold the ID3 fields info?
    thanks

    If you've been having ID3 issues with MP3s, that was recently corrected (well, just the album art thing, everything else worked as far as I know). I've had bad luck with third party ID3 tag editors, so we are recommending people do it through iTunes.app
    Since you are already doing that, I'd be worried that my site was set to overwrite the tags (this is an option). If you're the admin, you can check it, otherwise you can ask them.

  • Standard Midi File Import/Export Questions

    Hi,
    I'm having some trouble with Standard MIDI files, in that, after exporting them, and importing them back into another Logic project to test them, some of them will split/demix. That is, instead of one MIDI region appearing, it imports as two MIDI regions, with the notes of the part split between the two regions (the notes seem to split according to velocity, not note value).
    Here is my question related to this:
    Is it possible to export a Standard MIDI File for each "part" in a project, rather than one SMF for all the MIDI files in a project? (i.e., create one SMF for each software instrument track)? This is what I'm trying to do. The reason is that I'm trying to prepare and save some MIDI files to include with the audio files in a remix pack, and, since it's likely that the various remixers will be using different DAWs such as Cubase, I'm assuming that a SMF that includes all the various parts might not import into their program correctly. Is my assumption wrong? I.E., will most DAWs, like Cubase, etc., correctly import a SMF that includes all parts, and upon import split those parts correctly?
    I'm following all the instructions for "Saving Standard MIDI Files" from the Logic Pro manual, except that I am not merging all the different instruments' MIDI regions together; I'm only merging each individual parts' MIDI regions.
    Thanks!
    Message was edited by: trobert225 - I accidentally posted before I finished the question.

    Well I think the problem is solved. There was a conflict between Logic and iLife 06. I bought a new computer this week and had to load everything into it. I decided not to put in iLife 06 yet including Garageband and all the jam packs. I loaded all the new .caf files off the Logic DVD
    I opened a midi file and all tracks loaded with Logic instruments. the problem was that a lot of the instruments had been erased somehow or over written by Logic studio. Now I believe they are all there and things are working as they should

  • Continued Widescreen Issues/Questions

    From what I gathered, there is no solution to having our widescreen movies to show up widescreen on a dvd. I tried some of the suggestions, but none have worked. If someone knows a clear easy step solution, starting with exporting from iMovie (what exact expert settings or can I just use full quality), please, please let me know.

    You can try the expert settings. I just did. Seems to work. Here are the dialog boxes you'll need to address:

  • Resolution for Widescreen Monitor question

    We have a project that requires a flash presentation that
    will run on a widescreen monitor (1366 x 768) at a tradeshow booth.
    Any advice on what resolution to use for our images? We had
    thought 150dpi would give us smooth color gradations. True?
    If we use that, should we made our document size larger or
    scale down the graphics when importing them to the stage?
    Any help/advice is appreciated.
    -K

    First of all, dpi is meaningless for screen graphics (ie, the
    web). What you are really looking at is pixels, so pixel dimensions
    is all that really matters.
    In the end, if the the monitor is 1366x768 then your best bet
    is to just make the Flash that size. Flash can run slowly when
    played at larger resolutions, regardless of whether the original
    size was large or the movie is being scaled up. If you can, get the
    latest Flash Player 9 update beta from labs.adobe.com, it is
    significantly better in performance, especially at large scale
    sizes.
    I've made a number of Flash demos to be played on monitors at
    tradeshows and such, and I would suggest your best bet would be to
    make yout images the actual size they will be displayed, and scale
    as little as possible in Flash (excusing any scaling animation, of
    course). The way I do this is make mockups of all my main keyframe
    sequences in Photoshop (or Fireworks, which is what I use, which
    has frames and pages so motion storyboards are actually really easy
    to do, but you could also just make a sequence of PSDs) at the
    final size, 1366x768, and then when you are ready export you know
    the images are the size they should be.
    One last thing to mention, if you intend to animate your
    images in Flash in any way, make sure you set their properties in
    the Libray so that "allow smoothing" is on -- it will make the
    animations of bitmaps much smoother.

  • How to export question

    Quick question, I recently upgraded from FCE 2 to FCE 3.5HD. Before, when I was done with a project I would just export the sequence to Compressor and it would launch Compressor and have the sequence loaded in Compressor. Now with FCE 3.5, when I export my sequence, it launches Compressor, but it is blank. I do not know how to get me finished sequence in there....any help would be appreciated....

    Export your movie as QT-movie, non-self contained or self contained (bigger file).
    Open compressor and import the file.

  • Quick export question (i hope) for Reader

    I'm using the following button created in livecycle:
    form1.Submit::click - (JavaScript, client)
    xfa.host.exportData("",0);
    In Acrobat Pro, I get a prompt to save the file as .xml (desired behavior)
    I have enabled the form with "extend features in adobe reader" using Pro and have the 'save as' menu item available in Reader, so I know that is working.
    However, when the export button is clicked in Reader, it flickers and does nothing.
    Any ideas on this one?
    Thanks!

    Thank you very much for your answer.  I'm not sure I understand, or maybe my question wasn't clear.. I'm developing a form in LiveCycle but I've used the extensions in Acrobat Pro to enable it for Reader.
    If these are available to turn on in LiveCycle, can you point me to some documentation on how to turn it on, or describe where these features are located?  I've combed through much of the documentation / help and haven't seen anything on this.
    Thanks for your help..

  • IMovie export question

    I am using Roxio video converter to take my old 8mm tapes into iMovie (10.0.6) and then into iDVD.  I have two questions.  I have read that you should change the video format to AIC for older versions of iMovie, is this still the best practice with the newer version?  All of my videos are SD, so when I share the file from iMovie, what quality should I select (high, medium....)?
    TIA

    Is this movie comprised of video or still images?
    Matt
    The movie is entirely video clips from our digital camera. Granted, they are not camcorder quality to begin with, but they do look great when played back in fullscreen mode in iMovie. Shouldn't I be able to get that same quality after I export the movie? Shouldn't it be simple to do?
    A friend who works at Pixar saw the movie on DVD, and confirmed that he saw lots of "artifacts" from compression. He didn't have a solution, not being familiar with the software, but it seems to me there should be a way to export the movie uncompressed. I shouldn't be restricted to playing it only in iMovie on a Mac to see it the way it is meant to be seen, right?
    (I guess my gripe with Apple is that this program is designed for amateurs making home videos, like me, but they seem to expect that we'd be satisfied with poor quality exports, rather than wanting our movies to look professional.)
    Thanks for all your help.

  • Widescreen Exporting Problem

    Hello everyone, I finally managed to get my Premiere to work, however I now seem to be held back by another problem.
    I am trying to export some 16:9 widescreen clips (taken from a flip mino HD) into a widescreen quicktime file. When the export area comes up, its all set to widescreen and the preview is in widescreen at all points.
    However, when it goes through the media encoder and finishes on my desktop, the image is squished up into a standard 4:3 square, and I really cant figure out why.
    Any help is greatly appreciated
    David

    The squishing is normal.  You need to unsquish it during playback.  Most software players won't do this automatically.  Windows Media Player and Quicktime in particular have issues with this.  VLC is a much better option.
