Exporting as a QuickTime Movie
To export as a QuickTime movie:
1.  Select the material you want to export in one of the following ways:
  To export specific tracks in a clip or sequence, enable those tracks in the Track Selector panel, and disable all others. Make sure Use Enabled Tracks is selected in the QuickTime Export Settings dialog box. You can select this option before the export.
  To export part of a clip or sequence, mark IN and OUT points to export the marked range from a bin or a monitor. If you mark an IN point and no OUT point, the system exports from the IN point to the end of the clip or sequence. Make sure Use Marks is selected in the QuickTime Export Settings dialog box.
  To export the entire clip or sequence, deselect Use Enabled Tracks and Use Marks in the QuickTime Export Settings dialog box, and make sure the topmost track is monitored.

The Export As dialog box opens.
3.  Select the Export settings by doing one of the following:
