  • FLV out of compressor 2…need to buy something?

    Posted by Bob Flood on May 18, 2006 at 9:18 pm

    Hey

    I can do various FLV exports out of FCP, but i do not seem to see the choice in Compressor 2. Do i need a seperate plug in to be able to do FLV out of Compressor 2?

    thanx

    [Bob Flood] “I can do various FLV exports out of FCP”

    Hi Bob,

    I don’t seem to have any “FLV” (flash video right?) export options out of my version of FCP (5.0.4) so you might already have another piece of software or QT compontent that I do not have.

    I do know that Sorenson Squeeze will do that, and After Effects might as well. I, too, have never seen a FLV option with Compressor so you probably will have to buy another program to do this.

    i have a macromedia component (sic) so i can do flash exports via qt, and i assume i can do em out of FCP (maybe not?)

    but i know i cant do em out of compressor. the macromedia component doesnt show up

    on the interweb i found a plug in for compressor called flix exporter made by On2, the guys who make the VP6 codec. I just wasnt sure if there was anything that came w compressor

    (so does this mean codecs are now gonna have the names of defunct videtape machines? boy cant wait for the AVR 1000, or even the TPR 10!!)

    bee eph

    ricker….dude

    theres a couple o plugins as well as some stand alone things out ther on the interweb

    there are 2 flash video codecs i have seen. macromedia has one (duh) and ON2 which is called VP6

    we were using the VP6 codec in squeeze, so i went to the On2 website http://www.on2.com and they have a 150 US plug in called flix exporter that works w combustion, ae, compressor etc

    there is a macromedia flv codec you can acces out of fcp by choosing export to quicktime conversion

    of course it doesnt have has many variables as the On2, but ya get whatcha pay fer

    (these things are really driven by marketing geeks. i have yet to see something that i can use in FCP, QT, and Compressor! Its like I need a separate thing for each)

    hope this helps

    bee eph

    Can anyone enlighten us as to why we might want Flix Pro vs. Flix Exporter if we plan to make flv files out of FCP projects?
