Quictime print to tape
I have an HD film in my time lime and I need to convert it to an SD PAL letter boxed film. I can do this in compressor an I end up a Quick Time mov. Is there any way I can export this Quick time to mini dv tape? or do I have to import it into final cut pro and then print to tape?

What is the problem? Just import the QT, drop it into the timeline – so FCP creates the right settings for it and run it from there to Tape. Easy and safe.

Thanks. I need a QT mive to import into the time line to output to tape, great. But how do I get that QT mov. with compressor. I’ve rephrased the question:
I have a 16×9 HD clip that I want to down convert to 4X3 SD Letter
boxed PAL. I am not going to DVD. I need a Quick Time Movie that I
will import to FCP and print to tape.Could some one suggest a workflow?

Sorry, now I got you.
Make a new project, import you HD file into the Media Browser, Create a New Sequence (Timeline) and go into the Setting of that sequence (shortcut Command/Apple + “0”). There adjust the Sequence settings to what you need – DV-PAL, 4to3 – make sure the Anamorphic Box stays unchecked. Then Drop your HD clip into that Timeline – it will be forced into those settings then. From There go to “File”->”Export”->”Quicktime Movie”. Leave it then to “Current Settings”, which you already adjusted to PAL 4to3…and DONE. You get a Quicktime movie 4to3, DV-PALSascha
