Do you have any compression software other then Compressor?

If not, I would export out of FCP using “Current Settings”

Take that file into compressor. Modify the templates there and use:

h.264 / .mov
1280×720
same frame rate

800×600 is cropping or squishing your vid.

Did you try taking the original clip and dropping it on the new sequence icon and let APP match the settings?

Now that you have the codec on your mac. See if you can open the supplied AVI and then you can convert.

Use QT7 and just export to animation codec mov

In your APP Sequence, find a spot to break. Cut your program into 2 halves. Separate them by a couple of seconds. Send out to AME and set an out point for section one. Go back to APP, set an in and out point for the second half and send to AME.

Choose the DVD presets. Adjust data rate accordingly.
Import finished files into encore.

Prores is native to apple. If you can’t bring them into FCP, then something is really wrong with them.

What happens when you just double click the file @ the finder level?

You choose a 2 hour preset for a 25 min. vid.

Up your data rate.

Nest your comps. But AE would be so much easier IMO.

I have found (in FCP anyways) using a still that is really large and having to go down to 20% for some part of its move, didn’t always look the best.
That’s why I suggested not having it as big to start with. Make em just large enough for the move needed.

But how you are viewing this image matters~your computer screen is not how to judge video.

The codec used in your sequence matters a whole lot.

Stills:

RGB
72dpi
PNG

Well the DV codec is the worst, bottom of the barrel for quality.
Change sequence settings to 8 bit Uncompressed will yield much better results.

OR

Export to a much higher quality codec when the edit is locked.
