Compressor Settings destination in Final Cut Pro

Use this destination to export a project or clip using settings from Compressor, the professional transcoding app designed to work directly with Final Cut Pro.

Note: The Compressor Settings destination does not appear by default. To add it to the Destinations list, see Create share destinations in Final Cut Pro.

Exporting a project with a Compressor setting provides many of the benefits of Compressor without requiring you to open your project in Compressor. You can use Compressor to create multiple output files in one share operation, or create custom settings that modify your output file (for example, to add a watermark to the video). If you have Compressor installed on your system, you can use any of your Compressor settings with Final Cut Pro.

If you don’t have Compressor installed on your system and you receive a Compressor setting from someone else, put the setting in this location so that Final Cut Pro and Compressor can access it:

/Users/username/Library/Application Support/Compressor/Settings/

You may need to create the Compressor and Settings folders using the Finder.

Tip: In Mac OS X 10.7 and later, the Library folder within your home folder is hidden by default. To access it in the Finder, hold down Option and choose Go > Library. See macOS Help, available from the Help menu when the Finder is active.
