    Is there a way to export a Sequence from FCP using the sequence settings as the codec without tying up FCP or having to create the specs in Compressor?

    Thanks for your help!

    No. Render…export via FILE>EXPORT>QUICKTIME MOVIE…self contained, using sequence settings.

    What other application will be able to export a sequence FROM WITHIN FCP? Only FCP has that sequence, so you need to export FROM FCP…

    Thanks for the speedy reply! Sorry, I guess it was pretty stupid to have specified “within FCP”.

    Basically, the reason I ask is because I know that with FCP 7 you have the option of exporting using File > Share… which sends your timeline to Compressor (letting you continue to work in FCP), however, as far as I know there is no option for using Share… without going through the trouble of creating a Compressor setting to have the same specs as your FCP Sequence.

    Please correct me if I’m wrong. Thanks again.

    Well, I dont’ use Share. I like having a file that I export and then can do what I want with it. Always have it to do whatever…so I don’t have to go BACK to that project and export again. Exporting a self contained file takes very little time, especially when fully rendered.
