[CDFfilms]

[MrAadang]

@CDFfilms dude he does sound like him...

[srodvision]

nice finally got a google ad!

[XxHiLaRoUSxX]

Don't listen to the people saying you can do it with a few clicks by using mpeg 4 right off the bat, you loose a lot of video quality doing that, yet you do with this too. YOUTUBE ALLOW .MOV FORMAT please its pathetic

[BLUEFIZZY345]

thanks dude this helped

[SeanFilms]

Haha this is so overly complicated it's unbelievable. You can just export to MP4 now and YouTube will put it to HQ.

[NotLongFilms]

yah this video is dated, im sure there are easier ways, but this way works great for me

[RegentParkTV]

You don't need this video tutorial

[NotLongFilms]

what do u mean?

[BrikDivit]

Why not just export directly to .mp4 via Final Cut?

[NotLongFilms]

This method of exporting works for me, I have found that when this process is completed the format for youtube's HQ player works almost perfect. You may have other methods but this is how I export :)

[XtremeMeasuresTV]

FFMPEG is not recognizing that .DV file

[EtnicsMediaSB]

it doesnt work for me, when i try to upload it to youtube, it says "an unknown error has occurred"

[ThePedroChannel]

Hey dude, you don't need that application. You can just go Export>Quicktime Conversion>Options>Video_Setti­ngs>Then just select what format you want (such as MPEG-4)!

[ExposedEditing]

its says i need a progress app can u tell me 1 plz respond soon plz

[NotLongFilms]

i really dont know what that means....

[ocursi]

Me too, it's asking to find the "Progress.app". Do you know why this is happening? Thanks!

[cleekfilms]

thank you. very very helpful

[CyberKiwi27]

Do you have to buy that ffmpeg thing? Cuz I used it and followed your instructions but it has some huge stamp on the compressed file that says "3ivx TRIAL"

[NotLongFilms]

nah, the ffmpegx should have a free download

[AndreaMorrisFilms]

Thanks for responding.

No sound clip or video at then end. The video is exactly 1 min 16 seconds. in and out markers and all. I can't figure it out... oh well.

I'll try 4:3. Thanks.

Right now I'm trying to upload a version i exported using Apple res HQ codec. The file was 800 mb so have to wait til morning to see if it works.

Thanks for the very helpful videos.

[AndreaMorrisFilms]

Great video. Thanks! I got the encoder working.

Couple questions. When I export my 1:15min video to DV Stream the exported video is 6 minutes long (over four minutes of black at the end).

Also, I shot SD wide screen. I've tried cropping it, tried encoding 640x480 but the image on youtube is stretched out.

Any suggestions?

[NotLongFilms]

Your video is 6 minutes long because you probably have a little sound or video clip that is hidden in the end of your movie. When editing, your movie ends at the last clip of your timeline, so there must be a hidden little clip somewhere.

Im not sure why its stretched out. But try exporting it to 4:3, see if that makes a difference

[bumsmellpoo]

cool vid

thanks!

[Scotty4uHottie]

Great video. My problem is that after using FCP in 4:3 ratio for years, I just tried putting the camera into 16x9... capturing the footage into FCP... but the Canvas looks like 4:3, and so the 16x9 footage has the black bands at the top and bottom. How do I get the Canvas to become 16x9 so that when I export, I end up with widescreen without the black bands. Thanks so much!

[NotLongFilms]

Im not 100% totally positive how to solve that problem, If your capturing your footage in 16:9 it should show up in FCP as 16:9. I would put your camera back to 4:3, and then export it into 16:9 either with ffmpeg or just straight from FCP. Not sure if that answers the question, im sorry, but that problem has never come up for me before. I hope that helps :)

[Scotty4uHottie]

Thanks for the thoughts. At this point, I'm wondering if my cam-damera is shooting in some sort of simulated 16x9. Maybe I'll hook it up to an external monitor to see.

[NotLongFilms]

k, hope that works

[immitchbiatch]

thanks for the video its really simple.

im downloading the ffmpeg now..

i hope it works.

cheers

[Knutty4Knopfler]

[NotLongFilms]

I'm making a whole bunch of theses, pretty soon you'll be a master at Final Cut :D

[aceblade]

Hey, thanks so much for posting this... especially so darn fast!

:)

[NotLongFilms]

Hey, no prob, did u also see that I dedicated it to you

[aceblade]

Oh, wow! No, I didn't see it. When you had the titles going, I was just listening to the music and positioning the screen, so I totally missed it. lol.

NOW, I see it. Sweet! That's awesome.

:)
