  Exporting Reference Movie (not acting like it should)

  Posted by Nate Hanson on March 20, 2009 at 4:50 pm

  I’ve got a sequence finished and I want to export a reference movie. There is no rendering to be done.

  I choose File -> Export -> QuickTime movie…

  Then I make sure I uncheck the box labeled “Make Movie Self-Contained”.

  Then FCP begins writing audio and video. Within a few minutes, the estimated time to finish says 3 hours. After about an hour I get an “out of disk space” error.

  I thought reference movies took up almost no disk space. Any idea why this is happening? Thanks for any advice!
