Bouncing the Video Track to a
QuickTime Movie
When you have finished your final mix and syn-
chronized your audio events to the movie, you
can bounce the main video track (QuickTime or
Avid video) and a mono or stereo mixdown of
your session to a new QuickTime movie.
You can choose from a variety of standard
QuickTime codecs, which are fully compatible
with other QuickTime applications.
Because all formats and codecs have not
been tested, you should verify the
QuickTime movie bounced successfully.
Pro Tools cannot bounce audio or video to
an MPEG-2 video file.
To bounce video and audio in the video track to a
QuickTime movie:
Finalize your mix.
1
Make sure the video track you want to bounce
2
is currently the main video track. (The track's
Video Online button must be highlighted blue.)
Make sure that all of the audio tracks you want
3
to include in the bounce are audible (not muted
or inactive).
Assign the output of each of the tracks you
4
want to include in your bounce to the same ste-
reo output or bus path.
