(im exporting with QTMovie...by default)

THANKS A LOT!

[SteveThePorter]

Awesome, I have 300 gigs of video I need to convert and my exports from FCE are just as big, I'll give this a try and hopefully get my files down to a reasonable size. It's about 30 hours of home videos I'm converting to DVD, all captured in AIC. I'm just glad I didn't use ProRes!

[Davidachka]

[ScottSkates4fun]

@ScottSkates4fun :D Glad I could help!

Nice info, thanks. Although I'd say that for 720p action video with good resolution, a Data Rate of 8000kbps is about optimal to future proof your video's quality on the net. Otherwise, good tips.

[pizzafootbal]

@GrundleflyDOTcom Good idea, but it can vary from camera to camera

[TubingLizzie]

TYSM I used to export a quicktime movie, then bring it into iMovie and export from there. But it's been saying "General Error" whenever I try to export a quicktime movie lately, so I'm forced to use quicktime conversion. Wish me luck! :D

[Cleuq]

Hi, I really have to ask you something because I'm at a loss about what to do. I've made a project with 1280x720 clips, in HD, but when I go to export it, FCE4 thinks the "current" size is that of the size of the viewer - if the viewer is shrunk or grows from me adjusting it, the current size of the video changes.

How am I able to export in 1280x720 size if this is the case? What do I have to change? D:

If anyone can help, I'd be so grateful! Thanks!

[TheHiddenwolves]

@Cleuq adjust the viewer so it fits perfectly around your video, then re-render. It worked for me.

[Cleuq]

@TheHiddenwolves I'll try that, thanks.

[villenium11]

[SheaSlyTv]

Thanks!

[jhugo1986]

sweet thanks for the tip. i am thinking of upgrading from imovie to final cut express pretty soon.

[pizzafootbal]

@jhugo1986 Its a good investment

[youknowthat212]

@jhugo1986 earn your sea legs torrent that shit... a pirates life for me

[jhugo1986]

@youknowthat212 im actually thinking of doing it via torrent but only to test it out. usually getting stuff like that from torrents dont always work properly.

[youknowthat212]

@jhugo1986 Yeah dl'ing programs can get a little tricky but with a few google searches you can usually figure it out, just takes time... I'd rather save my money for hardware i cant find online for free.

[jhugo1986]

@youknowthat212 yeah im still going to do it though just to try it out before i buy and if it works well i might just go ahead and keep it for free.

[o2me2]

Thumbs up. Great information. As always, the presentation, audio and video quality are superb. Thank you.

[MetalShreader]

@theipodtycoon Ok, I would make one for screenfl0w, but idk
