    October 19, 2009 at 8:17 pm in reply to: convert quicktime movie to MPEG-2 ready for DVD burn?

    I just responded to another post with the following. Export a Self-contained, Current Settings QT movie (this avoids re-compressing your media), do not use QT Conversion. Import this file into Compressor and use the DVD Best Quality 90 Minute settings: one for video (mv2) and one for audio (ac3-Dolby). For the video setting in Compressor’s Inspector I turn on Frame Controls and change all quality settings to Best. You can try encoding without doing that. For the ac3 setting (Dolby) change the Compression Preset from Film Standard to None and Dialog Normalization from -27 dbFS to -31 dbFS. When Compressor finishes the encode, start DVD Studio Pro and import both files. Drag them into a Track, set the track for First Play and adjust the track parameters for Display Mode: 16×9 Letterbox (4×3 if not widescreen). Then Build/Format the DVD.

    I’ve seen some posts about it. Try searching the Cow. Here’s a review I saw by Tom Tomchak.

    IMHO, Motion’s keyer (Primatte) is better than FCPs.

    You may have to expand the filter window so you can the use the control you mention to widen the column with the color wheels. You can drag the filter window to a new area on your monitor to expand it, or expand it in-place.

    I misunderstood. I thought you had the .zax files. I’m not experienced in drive recovery. Here are some software options I found https://www.prosoftengineering.com/ and Drive Savers, although I’ve read they can be expensive.

    Do as Zane suggests – use Compressor. I did this a couple of weeks ago. I turned the Flip files into ProRes and the quality was surprisingly good. Be sure to turn Frame Controls On (in Compressor’s Inspector) and set all quality options to Best.

    Set in and out points and Export QT using Current Settings. The file can be a ref or self-contained.
