  • I’m pretty sure if you just send the audio track to SountrackPro you can place marks and blade out clips easily with an excellent view of the waveforms.

    Perhaps the clip is not selected in the timeline?

    We also use Helvetica for our titles and our clients actually complain if we change anything. For many of our long standing clients different is not always better.

    Boris is unfortunately very quirky and limited. In Title 3D I move the Position X/Y mark to wherever is needed on the canvas. The clip can then be copied, pasted, and edited – the position will stay exactly the same. If possible, you could use Title Crawl which will keep the text left or right justified on the timeline as well as in Boris.

    Good question!! I have been obsessing over this for a few weeks now. I may be completely wrong here, but I have been told that all you have to do is change the file extension from mov to mp4. (And the same with a FLV file?)

    MP4 (with extension .m4a) is a Lossless codec. They have a pre-set for this in Compressor.

    H.264/MPEG-4 Part 10 is a Lossy codec and this is what I think my clients are asking for when they say mp4. They have many presets for this in Compressor.

    Vimeo also wants a H.264 codecs with the file format as mp4. Is this also just a matter of changing the extension?

  • In User Preferences, General tab, have you deselected Abort capture on dropped frames?

    I am certainly a novice at the fine art of compressing but I used the preset for mp4 in the format tab in Compressor, uploaded the file to Vimeo and it looked great. The file was not compressed very much. It pretty much stayed the same size as the QT movie I exported from FCP. This preset was suggested by David Weiss (thank you David!!)

    I don’t want to hijack your thread here, but what is the difference between having mp4 compression and a mp4 extension with H.264 compression. Why does Vimeo suggest using H.264 codec but they want a mp4 file?

    I always use the Character Palette because of many foreign names I have to type in Boris. (Click the US Flag on the upper left of the screen.)

    But I just found this cool link which gives you a list of all the symbols you can create with just the option key.

    Thank you!!! (Open the manual? What a thought. Actually, I do read the manuals.)
