  • Problems Exporting Quicktime

    Posted by Brad on June 7, 2006 at 3:26 am

    Using a new Mac Book Pro to edit a movie.

    I’ve applied several effects to the movie in FCP (dissolves, speed changes, opacity changes etc.)

    I export the quicktime movie using “current settings”.

    The problem is, in the output file, whenever there is an effect, a color shift occurs. For example, right before a cross dissolve or speed change, the video gets darker, then goes through the effect, then goes back to normal color.

    This does not happen within FCP during playback, only on the exported file.

    Any idea what is going on?

    If I click “Recompress Frames”, then these color shifts don’t occur, however the entire video is darker, and quality overall suffers.

    Try rendering the timeline before exporting, and make certain that all options are selected, including “Full.”
