  • FCP X share to blu ray

    Posted by Tova Beck-friedman on October 17, 2014 at 2:21 am

    I have in my timeline a 55 min video prores.
    When I send it to File>share> blu ray, I’m notified that the I should expect a 12.6 BG file.
    However at the end I receive an .img folder or 256 MB.

    Any suggestions? Please.

    That seems awfully low, yes. But then the size shown in the export window is nothing more than a guesstimate. In the case of a film of mine it went from the near 6GB guesstimate to a mere 2.5GB, too, yes.

    Do you maybe have an inordinate amount of black and/or talking head type material?

    And you know that you can burn what I call a “mini BD” to a regular DVD using a DVD-R? Both in HD and playable (only) on a BD player. Only it’s limited to about 30 mins. max. Maybe that’s a viable alternative.

    A 256 MB file size indicates a bit rate well under 1 Mb per second. Yes. Something is wrong. Paste the timeline into a new project. Delete all render files and give it another try.

    Clear any in/out range you have on your timeline before exporting?
