    Posted by Peter Fuhrman on March 15, 2009 at 11:03 pm

    I cannot export any video files from my Final Cut Pro. I am using version 6.0.5 with FCP Studio 2.

    Every time I try to export video I get the Mac OS spinning pinwheel. I have to force quit. I have shut down and rebooted the system twice. Same issue.

    I have tried exporting from different sequences and FCP projects and still cannot export. Any thoughts or suggestions? Thank you.

    1. Trash Prefs.
    2. Run Disk Warrior on all drives
    3. Delete all render files using Render Manager and then re-render.

    Or FCP is looking for a scratch disc/external hard drive for exporting that is no longer connected to your system.

    I cannot export to Flash, but I can any other format.

    There is no native Flash component in FCS — you would have install Adobe Flash or some other app. Do you have something? If so what?

    I ran across this great tidbit of information the other day: if you create a QT H.264 .mov file and change the .mov suffix to .f4v your movie will play in a flash player without any other changes. Here’s the article:

    Good luck.

    Right. But stop being played in QT (unless you have Perian installed).
    The thing is to make that both players can open it.
    I have to try with .mv4. It works with QT player but I have to try with Flash Player. In theory should work.

    The interactive media company I work for requires all f4vs for the online flash player. I am trying to move into a final cut workflow

    Are you saying that if I have Flash CS4 or CS5 on the mac with Final Cut, I will be able to export f4vs through Compressor?

    Thanks for your help.
