![]() ![]() In Handbrake: I’ve set a folder destination called “Compressed” where all my handbrakes are dumped too. In FCPX: Here is what it looks like to setup in share dialog. Handbrake FCPX Helper 1.0 (December 2019( How to use it: If it really is an issue, contact me and I”ll make a try to make a version that takes that into account. If you’re encodes go really quick, you’re going to see some warnings pop-up in Handbrake. Setup in FCPX is simple, add it as a destination for the “open with” option in settings and then when you share timelines in FCPX, they will be added to the handbrake queue and encoded.įYI. To make things go a bit smoother with FCPX, I created a little Automator App that will add any single movie file dragged on it to the HandBrake queue and start the queue. Using Handbrake can be a bit clunky with FCPX as far as finding exported files, adding them to Handbrake and exporting. While there is x264 Quicktime component that you can use in Compressor, it hasn’t been updated for over a decade, and it doesn’t give as nice of results for anything beyond 720p and is now where near as efficient as the most recent releases of x264. ![]() For my everyday work and prefect compatibility, h264 is super fast and looks great. So if you are delivering for a website background video for example, where size is everything, it imuch better to go with x264 than h264. x264 on the other hand is CPU dependent so will use up your cores, but over the years of refinement it has become super fast, efficient and makes small file sizes tiny. The flavor of h264 compression that from Apple is excellent, and it is built into intel chips for super speedy compression. The secrete sauce of x264 its in incredibly efficient compression. As far as I understand it, h264 is actually a standard for decompression, not compression. While you may think that all h264 encoding is the same, x264 is a big deal. While the h264 encoding that Apple has built into FCPX is accelerated on most Macs, the x264 encoder (notice the “x”) that part of Handbrake typically gives me up to 10 times size savings with minimal visual change. Lately, while working on web projects, I’ve needed to get my h264 files down to the smallest possible. Note: macOS Mojave 10.14 and above users see note at end of article. Note: Handbrake Helper is currently not working in Big Sur because of keystroke permissions. ![]() Payton | | Final Cut Pro X The x264 difference Handbrake and FCPX: Handbrake FCPX Helperīy T. You’ll sometimes need to toggle the spacial conform on the clips from fit to actual size and then back to fit. Part of the reason FCPX doesn’t do the swapping of clips with non-matching frame rates is the frame rate will invariably change the timing of your edit. Step 4 (optional)Ĥ) optionally in your 60 fps timeline you can copy effects and attributes (command-C), break apart the clip(command-shift G) to reveal “fresh” 4K clip that connected clip, paste your effects and attributes (command-option-v). Then return to your 60 fps timeline and repeat for each clip. The extra connected audio has been removed. Make sure you connect it to the start of the clip that is there, ignore the shared areas which show the in and out points show on the open clip. Step 3ģ) IN your 60 fps timeline, you’re going to open each clip (Clip > Open Clip),Ĭonnect the corresponding 4K clip (if your 2K and 4K clips are in the same event, shift-F on the opened clip and it will show in the browser right next to the 4K version. This will save time in locating your 4K clips. Step 2Ģ) Import your 4K 60FPS footage into keyword collection that is best if it is in the same event as the 2K 30fps footage. Then paste back all the clips in your timeline. On duped version select your whole timeline (command-A), cut, then Command-J and modify your FPS to 60fps. I have a related video to this here, so that would be helpful to watch for the technique but that one uses compound clips rather that single clips.ġ), you need to change the frame rate of a project timeline, which you can only do on an empty timeline. Therefore you can do a manual clip swap in FCPX that will actually go pretty quick. It might be possible to export FCPX to resolve but I’m no Resolve expert. I wish I had a better solution, but changing frame rate is not something that works for relinking all your clips in FCPX. Specifically he had a question about relinking his 30p 2K clips with 60p 4K versions. I fellow asked me a question about a video tutorial I created on relinking media tips. ![]()
