Re: NEED HIGHEST POSSIBLE QUALITY EXPORT SETTINGS

As far as codec?

Go to Sequence>Settings> General (tab)
Under QuickTime Video Settings set it to the Animation codec. It's the most lossless codec that comes with FCP, natively.

Expect long render times.

A codec that supposedly gives the same quality with little of the render time is SheerVideo Pro codec.

You can read Graeme Nattress' review here: http://www.lafcpug.org/reviews/review_sheer_video.html

Hope that helps.

Note that if it was originally DV footage you're not gaining much quality by outputing with a lossless codec. Titles or modified scenes might look better.
