Publish your project to Podcast Producer
Podcast Producer is a component of Mac OS X Server that you can
use to create and publish podcasts. For more information, go to
http://www.apple.com/server/macosx/features/podcast-producer.html.
Note: Before you can publish to Podcast Producer, you or your server administrator
must rst set up a podcast server.
Publish a project to Podcast Producer for the rst time
1 Select the project and choose Share > Podcast Producer.
2 Click Congure.
3 Type the server’s IP address in the Server eld and click OK.
Final Cut Pro contacts the server to verify its address. If successful, the Name and
Password elds appear.
Note: Contact your server administrator for details about how to congure your
account. Conguring your account requires a server IP address, a user name, and
a password.
4 Type the Name and Password text and click OK.
5 Choose an option from the Workow pop-up menu. The actual workow options
depend on how Podcast Producer is congured on its server.
6 Type the movie title and description you want viewers to see.
7 Choose an option from the Size pop-up menu, or select “Set size automatically” to
have Final Cut Pro choose an appropriate size (which is displayed in the dimmed Size
pop-up menu).
8 From the Compression pop-up menu, choose “Better quality (multi-pass)” if you want
the best quality or “Faster encode (single-pass)” if you are willing to sacrice quality for
faster processing.
9 To see details about the le that will be output, click Summary.
10 To take advantage of distributed processing or to send your project to Compressor,
click Advanced.
For information on the Advanced options, see “Export your project using
Compressor” on page 456.

You have to type the server information only the rst time you publish to Podcast
Producer. After that, you only need to choose the Workow, type the Title and
Description, and choose the Size.
