Re: Quickest way to export?

Export the file from Final Cut as a self-contained quicktime movie. Then, close Final Cut and drag that file into Compressor.

This goes a little faster than exporting directly from Final Cut to compressor. When you export directly, Compressor goes in and looks at things like titles and transitions and spends more time on those areas. This take a little more time than if you just give it a single file to work on.

This means that this method is technically not quite the same quality as a direct export, but I haven't really been able to see much difference in the past.

I don't suggest this much any more, because on newer machines the time savings are not as noticable. But for you, it could make a real difference in the time it takes.
