    Posted by Zuleide Otaviana on January 17, 2010 at 11:09 pm

    I have a miniDV video that I edited in FCP. I had it mixed, and I received it back and laid it down in my FCP. Then I exported to a DVD in stereo. But what is the audio format that I have? How can I find out? What is a Dolby format? Can I have it in dolby? I know those questions are really silly to have, but I just don’t know the answers to it. Thanks.

    The audio properties should be listed in the “settings” when you exported it. It’s not changed by burning to a DVD.

    FCP 6.0.5 /
    OS 10.4.11 /
    Mac Pro 2×2.66 Ghz Dual Core/ 2G RAM
    External: FW800 G-tech 500 HD and G-Tech Quad 750GB
    playback deck: Pan dv2500

    Hello Zuleide and welcome to the Cow Audio Forum,

    The format of the exported audio would depend on which choices you made when you exported the production with Quicktime or Compressor.

    Regards,
