Mov To MP4 Help
Hello All,
I know this is the FCPX forum here, but I’m doing my video on FCP 7(I didn’t see a forum for it anymore for obvious reasons). I used to do video editing as a hobby many years ago(hence FCP7), but stopped as life got busier. I still have my program and am trying to create a simple video.
I have a stock 60 second countdown that is in a Quicktime ProRes 422 format. My video is simple, have it play while I have a logo and some text on the screen with it. When I export it to MP4 thought(the site I’m trying to upload it to doesn’t take .mov) it becomes pixilated.
The exported .mov works just fine, but even when I convert the exported .mov using MPEG Streamclip it gets pixilated. I also tried converting the raw file to MP4 using Streamclip and it also gets pixilated.
What am I doing wrong here and why am I losing the quality?
Thanks in advance for the help.

The forum you want is called “Final Cut Pro Legacy.” It is in the FULL list of forums, not the short list of top-rated forums.
I hope you that helps.

Hi David,
Changing the suffix or your .mov file to .mp4 may work for you. It does it all the time for me.
Greetings,

Didn’t even think of that. So simple, yet never tried.
That did the trick. Thank you!

You’re welcome.
I’m glad it also worked for you.
