  8 bit uncompressed export – how to?

  Posted by Baba Goof on February 9, 2006 at 11:52 pm

  i’ve just been requested to finish in this format
  and am unsure just how to do it. tried changing
  ‘fcpro—>audio/video settings’ to that preset but
  an ‘export—>quicktime movie’ yielded a file the
  same size as my normal dv output. shouldn’t an
  uncompressed format file be much larger? do i need
  to output using compressor to get this?

  the specific request was to have the editors to
  ‘finish the edit and output on an uncompressed 8
  bit time line (the render will take a while), do
  all your color correction and titles there, will
  encode much nicer on the DVD.’

  where to i set this up? obvously the first thing
  i thought to try didn’t work.

  thanks in advance,
  BabaG

  With the project open, go to the EASY SETUPS and select 8-BIT UNCOMPRESSED. If the machine has a spefic capture card, use the capture cards 8-bit setting. If not, then use Apples.

  Create a new sequence.

  Copy and paste your DV sequence into this…then RENDER. Or CC first, THEN render.
