DV Info Net - LiveType & FCE

The LiveType source file is supposed to be used by FCP, not a rendered QT file (I don't know about FCE).

From the FCP manual:

Quote:

To add a title you created in LiveType, you import the LiveType project in exactly the same way you would import most media items. A LiveType project file within Final Cut Pro is simply referred to as a LiveType clip or a LiveType movie.

To import a LiveType project into Final Cut Pro, do one of the following:
Choose File > Import (or press Command-I) and navigate to the LiveType project you want to import into Final Cut Pro.
Or, from the Finder, drag a LiveType project file into the Final Cut Pro Browser.

The LiveType project file appears as a clip in the Final Cut Pro Browser.

Note: If necessary, you can later reconnect the LiveType project file on disk just as you would any other Final Cut Pro clip.

When you import a LiveType project, Final Cut Pro creates a LiveType clip that refers to the LiveType project file. A LiveType clip behaves just like any other clip in a Final Cut Pro project, so you can set In and Out points, edit the clip into a sequence, and reconnect the LiveType clip whenever the LiveType project file is updated.
