FCPX DVD or Compressor DVD export?
Posted by Brandon Adam on December 31, 2014 at 9:15 amHello,
Is there any difference in quality between FCPX and Compressor for DVD export?
SD export.
Thank you.

January 7, 2015 at 5:49 pmIMHO, even if you theoretically could achieve a technically (not objectively i.e. visually) higher quality version of a clip through Compressor, I highly doubt the task of endlessly fiddling with GOP structure, P-frames et al to get there is worth the minute difference in the end. The encoder is the exact same in both cases and delivers very acceptable (if not by today’s standards 😉 ) results either way.
Using the standard settings (i.e. without fiddling) in either would give the same results from what I’ve (unscientifically) tested.
