Compressor: Choose this option to open the exported file
in Compressor. The exported file will appear as the source
in a new batch, making it easy to continue to process the
project’s movie. For example, you can create the
compressed versions needed for distribution, without
involving Final Cut Pro.
Note: This option is available only if Compressor is
installed on the same computer as Final Cut Pro.
Other: Choose this option to specify another application to
open the exported file. Select the application in the window
that appears, and click Open.
Library: Choose this option to add the exported file to your
iTunes library.
Roles as: Available only if you chose a mastering format (Video
and Audio, Video Only, or Audio Only) from the Format pop-up
menu. If you need to export your project as separate media
files (for example, if you want to export the dialogue, music,
and sound effects from your project separately), you can
export one or more of your project’s roles as media stems.
You can create a combined, multitrack QuickTime file or
separate audio or video files using your project’s audio and
video roles, and you can assign mono, stereo, or surround
output for your audio channels. For more information about
roles, see .
