Export to K2 storage

When exporting media to K2 storage, Final Cut Pro export options must be constrained so that the resulting media is playable on a K2. The exported media must match the frame rate of movies supported on the K2 system. This is especially important in XDCAM where there are 25, 29.97/30, 50 and 59.94/60 rates.
  1. Create the Final Cut Pro clip with a single track of video.
  2. Save the Final Cut Pro clip with a .mov extension.
  3. Use the Final Cut Pro "Using QuickTime Conversion" method to export the Final Cut Pro clip as a stream movie to the K2 HotBin. Make sure the frame rate is supported on the K2 system. For material originally recorded on a K2 system, supported frame rates are as follows:
    • If you are exporting 1080i material the frame rate must be "Current" or 60 (50 for PAL).
    • If you are exporting 720p material the frame rate must be "Current" or 60.
    • If you are exporting 720p material for 1080i conversions the frame rate must be 60 (50 for PAL).
The HotBin imports the clip into the K2 system as K2 media. As a by-product of the import, the K2 system creates a QuickTime reference file for the new K2 media.
