To bounce video and audio in the video track to a
QuickTime movie:
1 Finalize your mix.
2 Make sure the video track you want to bounce
is currently the main video track. (The track’s
Video Online button must be highlighted blue.)
3 Make sure that all of the audio tracks you want
to include in the bounce are audible (not muted
or inactive).
4 Assign the output of each of the tracks you
want to include in your bounce to the same ste-
reo output or bus path.
5 Do one of the following:
• To bounce the entire session, click Return
to Zero in the Transport window to go to
the beginning of the session.
– or –
• To bounce a portion of the session, enable
Options > Link Timeline and Edit Selec-
tion, and make a selection in the Edit win-
dow.
6 Choose File > Bounce to > QuickTime Movie.
The Bounce dialog appears (if you are bouncing
QuickTime movies) or the Bounce to QuickTime
dialog appears (if you are bouncing Avid video
to QuickTime movies).
7 Select your mix’s output or bus path from the
Bounce Source selector.
8 If you are bouncing Avid to QuickTime and
you want to configure QuickTime video set-
tings, click Options.
9 Configure other settings as appropriate.
10 Click Bounce.
11 Select a destination for the new QuickTime
movie, enter a new name, and click Save.
Bouncing video may take quite a bit longer than
real-time, depending on the format of the
source video, the format of the bounced video,
and processing speed.
Sharing a Pro Tools 7.2
Session with a Previous
Version of Pro Tools
When you open a Pro Tools 7.2 session with
Pro Tools 7.1—or save a Pro Tools 7.2 session to
be compatible with Pro Tools 6.9—some com-
ponents of the session may open differently or
not open at all, as follows:
• Only the main video track is displayed.
• Only the first QuickTime movie in the session
will be displayed or play back.
• If the session contains QuickTime movies in
the Region List but no video track, the session
opens with a new QuickTime Movie track
containing the first QuickTime movie from
the Region List.
• The Timeline displays and plays back only the
video playlist that was last active. Alternate
video playlists will not be available.
• Video regions and video region groups will
not be shown or saved.
Pro Tools is qualified to bounce to Quick-
Time DV25. Bouncing to other formats
may work but has not been tested.
See Apple documentation for detailed infor-
mation on configuring QuickTime movie
settings.
