  • Exporting Mpeg 2 with video and audio in 1 file

    Posted by Cem Yildirim on May 6, 2008 at 12:12 am

    Hi..I was asked to export a mpeg2 file from my FCP project which should include video and audio in the same file, not separate files. But the way I know exporting mpeg 2 from FCP or Quick Time fro makes 2 files, audio and video separated. Is it possible to export mpeg2 file that contains both video and audio from FCP or compressor? If not what should I do? many thanks….

    You can do this in Compressor.

    Yes, this is called a muxed mpeg file, used in some settings for server-based projections. I believe mpegStreamclip can do this too.

    Have a wonderful day.

    Yes, in Compressor choose a MPG2 preset. In the “Extras” tab, select: “Multiplexed MPG-1/Layer 2 Audio.
    You can do it as well with BitVice Helper. Free from the Innobit web site.

    Many thanks….
    Mpeg stream clip does not do it. It only “demuxes” the clips…
    Thanks again

    I tried the setting but it did not work. I am getting only the video. My system is FCP 5.1.
