Posted by Tommaso Cicognani on July 13, 2007 at 2:12 pm

Hi all,
I’ve a question: I’ve just finished a dvcproHD project in FCP but now I want to downconvert it in SD and put it in a DVD.I’d like to mantain the project in 16:9 but when I export it it is 4:3.
Sorry for the silly question but I really need an help.
thanks
Tommaso

Export a reference file from FCP.

In Compressor, set the video framing for 16:9

Compress the MPEG-2

Make your DVD.

thanks for the answer but…
what do you mean with “reference file”?
With the upgrade to FCS2 I got a huge problem: compressor doesn’t open anymore. Is there a way to do it directly in fcs and then convert in dvdstudiopro (as I usually did)?

one more: is it finished your Color – training DVD?
thanks

[tommaso79] “what do you mean with “reference file”?”

Export > Quicktime Movie > UNcheck “make self contained movie”

[tommaso79] “With the upgrade to FCS2 I got a huge problem: compressor doesn’t open anymore.”

Re-Install Compressor. It works perfectly on all four of our systems.

This weekend.
