reducing GB size (May 05, 2015 12:08PM)

Margo

I have two 60 second videos (plus change). They are both around 1.2 GB when I export them as QuickTime movies. They are 1920X1080.

Is there a way to export them out of FCP7 to make their size smaller?

Thanks,

Margo

Margo,

In Share > Export File > Settings, you have the option of choosing H.264, have you tried that?

At the bottom right of the Settings window there will be a file size estimate that you can check before export.

Hi Ken,

This is what I'm using to set the sequence

Ken -

When I used the settings in the email above, the videos were squashed.

Any suggestions? This is FCP7.

Thanks Ken.

I ended taking it to my desk top exporting it from there and for whatever the file size was much smaller.

Weird world of video.

You always give me confidence.

Thanks -
