4. In the Share window that appears, do any of the following:
• Move the pointer over the image to skim the video.
If you’re batch sharing (exporting multiple items), the image is replaced by a list of
the items you’re exporting.
• In the Info pane, view and modify project or clip attributes, such as the title and
description.
See
Change metadata for shared items in Final Cut Pro. All of the attributes
associated with the project or clip are included in the output file.
Important: By default, the title field lists the project or clip name. Changing the title
does not change the project or clip name, which is the name used for the exported
file.
• At the bottom of the window, view information about the file that will be exported,
including frame size and frame rate, audio channels and sample rate, duration,
output file type, and file size.
5. Click Settings, then choose your preferred DVD settings:
• Output Device: To burn a disc, choose an optical drive. To create a disk image (.img)
file that you can copy to an external storage device or burn to DVD media later,
choose Hard Drive.
• Layers: Choose whether to burn a single-layer or dual-layer disc.
• Automatic: Automatically detects the type of disc you can use.
• Single-layer: Identifies the disc as a single-layer disc. You can use this option to
force a double-layer disc to be treated as a single-layer disc.
• Double-layer: Identifies the disc as a double-layer disc. You can use this option
to force the disk image to be formatted for a double-layer disc when you choose
Hard Drive as your output device.
Important: Choosing “Double-layer” when using a single-layer disc can result in an
error during burning, depending on the project’s length.
