final cut express render is past the mark out
thanks in advance for any help! having to post in final cut pro forum, there is no option for express.
after render my video is twice as long as I have the mark out set. I am rendering out in DVCPRO50. the reason I am having to do DVCPRO50, I am compressing in handbrake because it has great quality, and it will not accept proprietary apple codec. I am wondering if anyone can tell me why everything in the timeline is 4.5 min. and the rendered portion is 9 min.thanks again.

DVCPRO50 is not supported in FCE. It only supports DV25 in standard definition media.

“And it has an option for DVCPRO50 under the DV Stream tab.”
In Handbrake? Or do you mean in FCE.
The best export function is to export to QuickTime Movie. Export whatever format your sequence is.

sorry, it is under the FCE tab under the DV Stream option. I took a snap shot of it and posted on the last post but apparently I did something wrong. It is there in FCE, just not sure if that is the best file type to use, and was really wondering why I rendered and it went 4 mins. past the end of the time line. When I played it in QT it had 5 min. of blank black video.
thanks
If you’re going to Handbrake, do not export to DV50. At that stage it’s not doing anything for you. Do not use DV Stream. Do not use DV50.
What are you exporting, a sequence? In the timeline press Shift-Z for Fit to Window. How does it fit in the window? Also what format is your sequence.
BTW, there is a Final Cut Express here on the COW. It’s called the Basics forum https://forums.creativecow.net/applefinalcutbasics

I pressed Shift-z and it fit inside of 4 min., that really had me baffled. I restarted FCE and it worked and it now exported the right length so for now I guess that is fixed for whatever reason. I was exporting a sequence, and I am not sure what the format is posted by pic, hopefully I got it right this time.
When I tried to export as QT Handbrake would not accept the file, it said “no valid source found”. Reason I am using Handbrake, the quality was much better when I exported as DV Stream, then compressed in HB. I am looking for best quality for web. I would rather use QT but would not take it? I was told that HB would not accept it because it was a proprietary Apple Intermediate Codec? a solution for this would be great!

You’re in Apple Intermediate Codec, then definitely don’t do DV50. That’s a standard definition codec. If you’re in AIC I’m presuming you’re working in HD, because that’s only used in FCE for HD format media.
Use Photo-JPEG with quality set to High.

I am starting to catch on now! go to using QT conversion> options> settings> comp. type> photo jpeg? (should I use “optimize for streaming if I am using on the web” or will that work for DVD also if this is the right sequence?
also, I am assuming I should capture in AIC if for some reason my final project will be to a high quality DVD? I want the best quality and a basic capture export that I know without having to learn 15 different methods if that is possible.
please give me a link where I can find your DVD on FCE
DVD? What’s DVD have to do with Handbrake?
What’s authoring the DVD? iDVD? Export to QuickTime Movie. Exporting for one application is not the same as exporting for another. Sometimes they are, but until Handbrake supports the full range of codecs available on your system, then you’re limited in what you should do.
Generally for going to another application like Toast or iDVD you export to QT Movie as that’s the closest to your original media format without recompressing. In some instances, for Handbrake and for YouTube, you might have to use QT Conversion.
You capture in AIC is you’re capturing HD material.

understood about DVD, I knew that already (getting older I guess)! so if I capture regular SD footage what format do I use, and maybe that will be all I need till I get the training video (just ordered it by the way)
one other question from the last post, should I use “optimize for streaming if I am using on the web” under the jpeg photo option
