Steve is right.
From Final Cut Pro, choose File -> Export -> Export to Compressor. That will automatically launch the Compressor application. In the “Settings” window, choose Apple -> Formats -> Quicktime -> H.264. Highlight that preset and then drag it up to where it says “Drag Settings and Destinations Here.” After that, you can right click (ctrl-click) where it says “Source” and choose your own destination from the contextual menu. Click submit, and compressor will begin cranking away at the file. To check the status of the compression, you’ll want to open up the Batch Monitor.
I hope that helps. Best of luck!

Glenn you gave Dennis to much information. He will never learn how to do things on his own. If he was having a problem, I can see an explanation. That is why there is a Basic FCP forum. Professionals should know the process.
