    I need to export my HD projects to HD Mpeg2 files to upload on our server.
    I don’t have an MPEG2 option on FCP X and I don’t have an HD MPEG2 option in Compressor.
    So, what is the best solution?

    What kind of “HD MPEG-2”?

    Compressor has this capability, but there are many flavors of hd mpeg2 and it can’t do them all.

    You will have to create your own preset, most likely.

    Yeah… I figured it out.
    Had to make my own.
    Thanks!

    As an alternative to Compressor – I just made an mpg2 file for broadcast the other day. There’s a preset in Adobe Media Encoder. Worked great. Just made a couple tweaks to the setting.
