If I want a 1920×1080 24p timeline, I make that.

I bring in my footage, stills, graphics of whatever codec or size I want.

If I then were to render out to the Animation Codec, Pro Res, Uncompressed, DNXhD or similar, I will be getting the most of out each type of file….

Thanks for all your help!

So, to further my question,

If I have a timeline set to my DSLR footage, and I add text or graphics, and then export them to the web, the graphics and titles won’t look like crap because they are being rendered at the codec I am using for the sequence? The graphics and titles will always be really crisp and clear?

I remember in FCP, if I had a DV timeline, with dv footage, I would have to at the end, chance my sequence to uncompressed to avoid my text looking all choppy….

Thanks,

Thanks for all the great feedback.

As for Flash, that is not up to me, but the client. I think once html 5 gets more prevalent a change will be made.

Thanks,

Actually pluraleyes worked perfect. I just went shot by shot and it found each piece and I cut them back together!

It did about 85% of the job. The rest I did manually!

Thanks!

I have a movie file, but I was wondering if I could use PluralEyes to help resync parts of it…..Thoughts?

I think that whenever people put in a bogus but working serial into FCP 7, we should register it to steve jobs.

I guess what I am looking for is a high resolution video file that if I ever need to render out a web version from, or a blu ray disc from, or play back to people on my 27 inch imac it will look as great as it ever can. Generally at the end of an edit I do in FCP7, I render out either an animation movie or a proresHQ movie depending on how much graphical content the piece has.

Quicktime would be nice, but not essential.

I’m not having any issues with the flv encodes, I just want to know what workflow people use to get the highest quality video out of FCP before I encode them.

They want flv becaise that is what they built their website to use, so that is what it shall be!

Delivery format is YouTube. I changed my settings and it looks great with the animation codec.
