    You have to choose to export the audio as well. And play with the settings of the audio output. this is gonna work. with me its working…

    Hi, thanks for that i have now got it exporting but mot at the size i want! It will only export at 720 x 576.

    I need it to be widescreen but it wont render out. the error message says frame size out of bounds?

    i have tried most things on the format options.

    That’s the nature of Mpeg2 format. it doesnt allow to change the aspec ratio. sorry… no way out of it. try mpeg-blueRay export…

    it dosen’t matter now any way, the signage system didn’t like the MPEG2! it only seems to like .wmv and seeing as I work from a mac it is somewhat annoying. Finalcut express only seems to export half of the comp’s time line when using the quicktime converter.

    does any one know anything about samsung’s ‘magicnet’? it is a digital signage system that has so many floors in the software it’s unbelievable.
