Apple Final Cut Studio is an outstanding video editor, and Compressor is highly capable, but inter-program workflows can be confusing to say the least. For example, which of the program’s de-interlacing settings (there are at least three between Final Cut Pro and Compressor) produces the best quality? And did you know that the preset you use in FCP can impact your ability to produce optimal quality de-interlacing, as can the encoding plug-in? This webcast details:
- The FCP-to-Compressor handoff, and how your project preset can impact output quality; optimal presets for interlaced and progressive input
- How QuickTime Export components (like those from Flip4Mac or On2) impact output quality
- How to use QMaster to speed encoding times on multiple processor systems
- How job chaining can improve output quality and decrease encoding times
- Which Flash plug-in (Adobe or On2) produces the best output quality
- How Compressor’s output compares to other available encoding options.
You’ll learn how to use Compressor most efficiently and when to avoid Compressor for higher quality options.
