  Motion Codec vs. Exporting

  Posted by Matt Campbell on April 15, 2009 at 2:40 pm

  When using Motion files in your FCP timeline, what is the best workflow for final hiRes output. Is using the Motion Codec Decompressor in your FCP timeline to render out ok or should you export from Motion using Animation or your sequence codec, such as 10-bit uncompressed? What is going to give you the best results.

  If using the Motion Codec Decompressor is ok, should you always check the following in FCP Sequence Settings:
  Video Processing.
  Render all YUV material in high-precision YUV
  Video Processing Tab, Motion Filtering Quality: Best

  Render Control. Master Templates & Motion Proj.
  Quality: Best
  Check Always Use Best Quality When Rendering Movies

  Or when would you not want to check these? I’ll usually edit with these off or set to normal and change them on final output.

  Any thoughts or comments would be helpful. Thank you
