Choose preset settings from the Settings pop-up menu.

The preset settings you see depend on the format you’ve selected.

Note: If you are exporting a QuickTime movie, the preset settings are the current
sequence presets available in Final Cut Pro. This is the same as when you are using the
Export QuickTime Movie command, except the choice Item Settings replaces Current
Settings, and no custom settings choice is available.

If you want to export a QuickTime movie using all available QuickTime customization
settings, make sure you select QuickTime (custom) from the Format pop-up menu.

To set additional settings, click Options (if available), then click OK.

Some formats let you choose additional options, such as bit rate. The Options button is
dimmed if no options are available. Many of these options are described in “

QuickTime

Movie Video Settings

” on page 249 and “

QuickTime Movie Sound Settings

” on

page 253.

Click Set Naming Options, choose the type of file extensions you want, then click OK.

 Strip Existing Extension: Specifies whether an existing extension is removed from the

base filename when the export filename is created. This is useful if you’re adding
your own extension.

 Add Custom Extension: Type a custom extension to be applied to the filename.
 Add File Type Extension: Specifies whether the default extension for the specific

export file type is automatically appended to the filename.

Typical extensions are:

 .mov: QuickTime movie files
 .pct: PICT files
 .tif: TIFF files
 .wav: WAVE files
 .aif: AIFF files

If you chose QuickTime Movie from the Format pop-up menu, choose the tracks you
want to export from the Include pop-up menu—Audio and Video, Audio Only, or Video
Only.

An empty audio track can still take up disk space. If your exported file doesn’t need an
audio track, choose Video Only.

Click the checkbox next

to the extensions you

want to add to

the exported files.
