Quicktime Error Compressor Not Found

Michael Young14 Level 1 (55 points) Q: Compressor error - Failed: Quicktime error 0 I'm sending my FCP sequence directly to Compressor and I'm getting this message after I submit: "Failed: Quicktime error 0". It's a 34 minute sequence. I'm using DVD Best Quality - 90 Minutes as my setting. I've googled this error and I'm seeing some folks suggest that there may be a corrupt file in the FCP sequence. Others say that it may be an insufficient RAM issue (not my issue). My questions:- Has anyone seen this before? If so, how did you resolve?- If this is due to a corrupt file, how would I go about finding that corrupt file?Any help would be appreciated. I'm up against a deadline about to get into panic mode. thanks!

The timeline media is only about 26 minutes. Please advise. jmf Dual 2 G5 FCP 4.5Return to posts indexReport Post •Re: Compressor error "Failed: Quicktime Error: 0"by PEYIII on Jan 14, 2006 at 4:01:17 amAre you exporting from FCP using compressor or are you exporting a quicktime from FCP? I have also tried to export from FCP using compressor and have received the "failed" warning. Try exporting a quicktime (NOT using the export conversion) just a quicktime so the icon is a FCP https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3907536?start=0&tstart=0 icon, then import that file into compressor.

The only recent change was updating Quicktime and purchasing the pro option from Apple. jmfReturn to posts indexReport Post•Re: Compressor error "Failed: Quicktime Error: 0"by PEYIII on Jan 14, 2006 at 4:18:38 amI understand that you https://forums.creativecow.net/thread/8/878930 may be reluctant to try this, however, I had the exact same problem last night with a two hour movie I just finished for a friend, tried to export from FCP using export using compressor and received the "failed" warning so I had to export a quicktime and import it into compressor. It works and I don't hink it's really a work around, think about it this way, let's say another editor gave you the quicktime file to compress for him because he doens't have DVD studio pro, this is the way you would have to get the file into compressor. Does this make sense? Sorry, but you might have to change your workflow.Return to posts indexReport Post•Re: Compressor error "Failed: Quicktime Error: 0"by jmf on Jan 14, 2006 at 8:48:30 pmOkay, it was an interesting journey; here is the skinny: The error was caused by a missing mpeg2 component in Quicktime. The timeline looked okay (no unrendered clips) but when compressor hit the mpeg element it failed causing the error. Also note worthy is that adding the missing mpeg2 component to Quicktime causes FCP (at least versions 4.x) to pause, as if it is not responding, before finally opening. I purchased a new mpeg2 component from Apple but it was still the old (Quicktime 6.4 vintage) version rather than one that has been updated for Quicktime 7. jmf Return to posts indexReport Post•Re: Compressor error "Failed: Quicktime Error: 0"by PEYIII on
