Using Compressor
Hi, I’ve just upgraded to FCP 6 (or rather Final Cut Studio 2) and the version of Compressor (version 3) now looks quite different. I’ve managed to work out exporting my FCP sequence to Compressor and then applying settings and assigning a destination, then I click ‘submit’ and something pops up asking me to check the name and the priority, and I click submit again, and then something else comes up saying ‘Compressor Processing’ with a frame counter. So far so good, but then there’s nothing there when it has completed. No file has been created. Am I missing something? What am I doing wrong?

In addition to assigning settings to your file, you can apply a destination, which is where your NEW file will live.
I believe the default destination in Desktop, but it could also be Source, which means your new file will live where your original file lives. Make sense?

I do believe it defaults to source as Rob said.
you can do a spotlight search for the file name.Non-linear: all the time and nothing but.

Twirl down next to the project name in the Compressor History window. If you didn’t name the project, it will be Untitled. Once you twirl down, you’ll see your newly created file(s) and from there, do the spotlight search to see exactly where it is.

actually, if you look in the history like mike suggests, there’s a little magnifying glass icon. click on that and the finder will pop up with the file highlighted.
