Activity Forums Apple Final Cut Pro Legacy Exporting Problem

  • Exporting Problem

    Posted by David Patterson on February 15, 2009 at 2:22 am

    Hi. I’m running Final Cut Pro 6.0.4 on Mac OSX, v. 10.5.4. I’ve got my video all done and ready to go in Final Cut, and I exported it using Quicktime Conversion.

    Under Audio Settings, I exported as AAC at 44.1 Hz sampling rate, with a bitrate of 256kbps. There’s a quality option, and I’ve tried both “Best” and “Better.”

    My problem is this: The video works fine when I open it from my desktop, but when I upload it to YouTube, something weird happens. When you watch in normal quality, the first two audio tracks (my voice) are really low, almost to the point where you can’t hear me at all. The music on the next tracks works fine.

    If you watch it in High Quality, though, everything works perfectly.

    Is this something that has to do with how I’m exporting the video from Final Cut? Or is this something on YouTube’s end? Any suggestions?

    I’ve already tried using YouTube’s support forums, but for some reason they won’t let me sign in even when I create a new account, so I’m hoping I can solve the problem here.

    Thanks in advance.

    Hi David,
    Send your file with 48Khz. That’s the standard for video (together with 32Khz) and probably the sampling rate that YouTube is expecting.
    Cheers,

    Thanks for the response. I tried the 48 KHz, but the audio didn’t work at all after upload, where at least before parts of it worked. Any other ideas?

    Never mind – After trying several different exporting options, one of them eventually worked. I don’t remember what the setting were now, but thanks for your help anyway.
