    Hello,

    I’m just wondering if it’s possible to export a file from FCP7 to burn a Blu-Ray using Adobe Encore CS4. I’m looking for a pretty basic disc with chapter menus that include chapter titles.

    If it’s possible can someone spell out the process for me, or point me to a tutorial that includes step-by-step directions as to how to do this?

    Thanks!

    The tutorials you googled and by reading the manual haven’t helped?

    No, they didn’t and that’s why I posted here. Thanks for supplying a link, however I specifically asked about exporting a file from FCP7 to Adobe Encore CS4. Your tutorial begins by describing how to bring a project from Premiere to Encore, this does not really help me.

    I’m hoping that by posting here, someone with more experience than I can help me out, so that I can end the two weeks of trial and error that I’ve been going through.

    It would be better to tell us exactly where you’re having issues. Hard to troubleshoot without some details 🙂

    Hi guys,

    Sorry if I’m not being clear. I’ve never used Adobe Encore before. I have a project that I am exporting from FCP7 and I’d like to use Encore to burn that file to a Blu-Ray disc with chapter menus that I set up in FCP. The tutorials I have found haven’t specifically talked about this. If there are any or if anyone has any suggestions I’d appreciate it. Thanks for your time.

    chris,
    if you just need a auto-start-BD, that will start you film straight away, that wouldn´t be so difficult to create.

    1. export your HD-film as self-contained quicktime mov
    2. create a BD-encoding-preset in compressor using H264 for blu-ray, 20-25MBit and NO 2-pass encoding and AC-3 dolby digital
    3. encode your assets
    4. start encore CS4, create a new project with h264 and dolby settings and import the assets (that could take a while)
    5. create a new timeline by clrl-klick on the projects-tab and drag/drop your assets into it. set your chapter-points in the timeline.
    6. klick on the DISK-symbol in the flow-chart-tab and select your timeline as first-play within your properties-tab
    7. go to built-tab, select format blu-ray, and output blu-ray-folder, set destination and create your disk.
    8. press built-button

    that was the quick overview what to do. now it´s up to you.

    cheers
