Apple Compressor 3 - Manual (Page 17)

Compressor opens with the batch template chooser and an empty untitled batch with
a placeholder job.
2 Since this workflow is focused on the manual method rather than the batch template
method, click Cancel in the Batch Template Chooser to close it.
To prevent the Batch Template Chooser from opening in the future, select “Don’t show
this dialog again,” or, in Compressor Preferences, choose Show Blank Template.
For information about the batch template method, see Quick and Easy Compressor
Workflow: Batch Template Method .
The figure below shows the remaining windows in the Compressor interface.
Note: To see the Compressor interface configured similarly to what is shown above,
choose a Standard layout from the Layouts submenu of the Window menu.
