Hi guys, I just recently exported a 90 minute film shot with the RED camera using compressor h.264. My intention was to create a blu-ray file and then later burn in toast titanium. The default extension for h.264 blu-ray in compressor was .mov. Therefore, I changed it so that I wouldn't need to re encode in toast. However, instead of changing the extension to m4v (which I think is proper for blu-ray) I changed it to m2v or mp2 (which is for SD DVD I think). Once I realized my blunder, it already had been encoding in compressor for 20 hours so I left it alone. I figured I could just change the extension when the export was done and everything would be alright. Well it looks like I was wrong cause after three days, it finally completed and it wont open anywhere. In fact, the entire bit size of the file is 124kb!!! I'm confused on how this happened and if there is any way I can still save this. I'm not sure my computer will be able to handle such a giant export again. Thanks in advance!
