Quick Time uses .mov and I believe .mov is the extension for HD. If you’re looking to export in any format I’d suggest you use Quick Times .mov. If the file is to large you might try reducing the quality a bit by lowering the frame rate or color variation. By color variation I mean change the preset unlimited depth from “millions of colors” to “256”. You’ll find the color depth output module which should be an available selection before you render the video.

See if you have an autosave project file from a time before you renamed these files (assuming you renamed clips in the Final Cut browser).
Launching an Autosave project will help you reconnect your original clip names, but won’t help if you made a ton of edits after you renamed your clips.
Option 2, you may have to manually rename your clips in Finder (where your scratch disk media resides). If it’s hundreds of clips, that will be tough. But for reference, you could sort your FCP Browser clips by clip duration, and Finder view by file size (assuming all clips were same media type) the two lists should for the most part correspond. Then rename and reconnect.

select the audio and video clip you want to merge in the timeline and drag it to the browser. This is the way I merge my clips. But you can only merge no more than two individual items, i.e. 1 video file and one audio file

sorry for the confusion.
It was edited at school and because the semester is done they wipe the computers. So he just dumped the entire project on his hard drive. He’s left to go home and we just where wondering if there was a way to for me to get the project back up to edit more (by just emailing the data files which would be small rather than try to mail back and forth a hard drive as the project is 50+ gbs.)
I wasn’t sure how they relink. Just was curious if it was possible if he had the data/sequence and I had the original footage.

Thanks to all for their notes, but Dave, that is totally uncalled for. Why are you making this personal? I am not a newbie, I simply overlooked the setting for timecode rate. Nor had I assumed it was a 23.98 sequence, I went through and checked that in sequence settings. I appreciate everyone’s help, but lets keep things civil, please.

Adobe has got it wrong! I completely understand pixel aspect ratios. I have been doing this for long enough to have grey hair and I did start when I was 19. Thats why I use the square pixel example as each pixel is square 1:1. So how does 1050 x 576 equate to 16:9? It doesn’t. Regardless of all of this it needs to match up to any finishing system as you can’t master out of after FX. So anything you do in after FX unless in HD will not simply import into Flame, Smoke, Quantel, Avid DS FCP and so on. Next thing Adobe will tell us is that HD is accually 1955 x 1080!!
Rant over, Chris

No, you can’t modify a motion menu’s transcode settings in Encore. what type of video is your motion background? Are you using SD size menus?.I think you are using a HD size main menu and SD size in Sub menu. Always use HD size menus when authoring a blu-ray.

connect your ki pro drive to a mac.
if you’re using an external drive (NTFS), connect it to your pc.
connect both the mac and pc together with an Ethernet cable.
on pc, turn on sharing for your pc external drive.
if you need to, turn on win sharing on the mac (sys pref/sharing)
on the mac “connect to server” and “smb” your pc external drive.
you might need to enter your pc account username/password to gain access, and then be able to see the pc external drive in the mac’s Finder. Open an additional finder window if you need to then copy all your footage from the ki pro drive to the external drive.this is the quick cheap approach which doesn’t require you to buy hfs+ software for your pc, and bypasses the need to translate between the two.
*** note: I haven’t tried this with footage I needed to edit, but it worked really well on 320GB of itunes movies/music from my mac to my pc one time. I recommend you test this out on some quick test footage first to see if it works well for you before you trust it with your serious stuff. good luck!! ***
*** if anybody has ever tried this with footage, please feel free to share your thoughts ***

i believe clipwrap.com is what you need

Cool. So I can have a 29.97 progressive sequence. And if I later need that to be interlaced for any reason, its an easy conversion, right?
So to be clear, these sequence settings will work. I can use the Easy Set up for ProRes NTSC and make a few modifications to it.
ProRes 422
720×480 NTSC DV
Editing Timebase: 29.97
Field Dominance: None
