|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Use Marks | When this option is selected, the system uses current IN and OUT points in the selected clip or sequence to determine starting and ending frames for the export. To export the entire clip or sequence, deselect this option or mark the entire clip or sequence. | |||||||||
Use Enabled Tracks | When this option is selected (default), the system uses tracks that are enabled in the Timeline. To export all the tracks in the sequence, deselect this option. | |||||||||

| |||||||||
Flatten Video Tracks | When this option is selected, the composition is exported as one video track. When this option is deselected, one QuickTime video track is generated for each video track in the composition, and you cannot select Fill Spaces with Black. Because most third-party applications do not understand multiple QuickTime video tracks, it is a good idea to select this option. This option is automatically selected if you selected the Fast Draft Defaults or the Digital Mastering Defaults option. | |||||||||
Fill Spaces with Black | When this option is selected, blank spaces in video tracks are filled with black in the QuickTime reference movie. Because QuickTime reference movies do not recognize blank spaces, it is a good idea to select this option. When this option is deselected, a QuickTime reference movie might interpret spaces in the video track as gray or as the background of the player. This option is automatically selected if you selected the Fast Draft Defaults or Digital Mastering Defaults option. | |||||||||
Render All Video Effects | When this option is selected, all unrendered video effects, including matte keys and titles, are rendered before export. When this option is deselected, any unrendered effects are ignored. This option is automatically selected if you selected the Digital Mastering Defaults option. | |||||||||
Pixel Aspect Ratio | The pixel aspect ratio allows you to apply a scaling to the video: square, 4:3 non-square, or 16:9 non-square. The pixel aspect ratio allows you to control the display format without modifying the source file. This feature creates metadata — additional data that is stored with the QuickTime movie. Some applications, such as the QuickTime Player and Avid ePublisher, can interpret this metadata and scale the image at display time. Pixel aspect ratio is useful for QuickTime reference movies because you do not modify the source files of referenced movies. For example, if your source movies are stored at the standard 720áxá486 for NTSC (720áxá576 for PAL), you can create two different QuickTime reference movies that use the same referenced source files — one that uses 4:3 and another that usesá16:9. | |||||||||
Mixdown Audio Tracks | When this option is selected, the audio tracks in the composition are mixed to stereo files created at the same location as the movie. When this option is deselected, the Quick Time Reference movie references the original audio media. This option is selected automatically if you select the Digital Mastering Defaults option. If you select the Mixdown Audio Track option, you can also select an audio format. Select the format that is supported by the application into which you will be importing the QuickTime reference movie.
| |||||||||
Use Network Media References | When this option is selected, the exported movie uses the machine and drive share name of the media drive in the QuickTime reference movie instead of a drive letter. Select this option when the media files referenced by the movie are accessed remotely over the network. If the media files are stored on the same drive as the QuickTime reference movie, you do not need to select this option. When this option is deselected, you cannot select Add Shares for Media Drives. | |||||||||
Add Shares for Media Drives | When this option is selected, the system creates a new drive share for referenced media files stored on unshared network drives. The drive share is hidden; that is, other users do not see the shared drive when browsing your computer. You do not need to select this option when media is stored on the same drive as the QuickTime reference movie. | |||||||||
Use Avid DV Codec | Deselect this option when you are working in a cooperative environment where one or more non-Avid systems also have access to the media. This option is selected by default. Select this option if the non-Avid systems have the Avid DV Codec. |
