Animated GIFs don't loop in exported movies from Keynote 3

I am just getting started with Keynote 3.0 and really like what I have seen. I created a series of slides and pasted animated GIFs in various places. They are set to loop on each slide as Keynote presents the slides. The slide show has preset transition and build timings and there is music playing continuously, throughout the show. It works quite well. (However, there is very intermittent choppy audio and video playback when there are builds or transitions occurring. Any thoughts on optimizing this?)
The problems begin when I ask Keynote to export the slideshow to a movie. The main problem that I am struggling with is that the animated GIFs don't loop in the rendered movie, regardless of which compressor I choose. I don't see anything in the documentation. I have also searched several of the discussions on making movies from Keynote 3 but have not specifically seen animated GIFs discussed. What am I missing here?
Also, I want to be able to play this movie on a DVD player at an upcoming function. Any recommendations for an approach that will be best? I have QT 7 Pro and the iLife '06 suite.
Thanks, in advance, for any forthcoming suggestions.

My guess is, it's too much of a pain to have to calculate how many times it will actually loop and create the loops and then composite everything. Running it in Keynote just tells the thing to keep playing over and over till you do something that stops it. There's a BIG difference there as one is just being told to play, the other is having to be placed in a movie with an exact number of frames, so there are a bunch of calculations involved.

  • Exporting movie from keynote 6.2 - soundtrack and frames not per original presentation

    Aloha! 
    I just created a Keynote 6.2 presentation (on a MBP with OS 10.9.4), with recorded soundtrack, with the frames timed per that soundtrack.  When I export it as a QT movie, there are few options to select (Format and timings for next slide/next build - which latter two shouldn't apply, since the timings are built into the presentation - right?)  File comes out as an ~.m4v file type and the frame timings and the soundtrack are all way off from the original.
    My questions are: i) what am I doing wrong in exporting this as a movie (I want to upload it to YouTube eventually), and ii) is this a common issue transferring from Keynote 6.2 to QT?  How to bring the text/images, frame and sound timings back into sync per the original??
    I appreciate any and all help with this.  The frustration level is starting to build!!

    Slideshow recording option in QT export will not be available until you create a slideshow recording.
    To create a Slide Show recording:
    Select the first slide in the Navigator pane.
    From the menu:   Play > Record Slideshow The recording mode shows you the current time, current slide, and next slide. To change the layout and see your presenter notes, a timer, and more, click the options button:     top right of screen  then select options you want.
    To start recording your presentation, click at the bottom of the window.The timer counts down from 3 before recording begins.
    To advance to the next slide, press the Right Arrow key. You can pause the recording at any time by clicking the Pause button.
    Click to resume recording.
    Click to stop the recording.
    Press the Escape (Esc) key to save the recording and exit the presentation.

  • How can I export a graphic slide with a quicktime movie from Keynote?

    I export a title slide with a quicktime movie from Keynote to my desktop and it plays fine with audio. Once I insert or drag the clip into iWeb the resolution is degraded and very choppy. The resolution is 320x200 and I'm exporting from Keynote as a custom size (320x200) Frame rate: 29.97 Key Frames: Automatic Key Reordering is checked Data Rate: Automatic Quality: Multi pass. I need some help.

    how large is the video and if you publish - does it still have the same horrible quality?
    you might considering exporting as flash (loads faster) and integrating that into your iweb site using post-editing: http://karreth.com/index.php/articles/iframes-iweb/

  • I have exported movies from old digital camera - how do I ensure it goes into the correct year (eg. 2005)  Thank You

    Some exported movies from old digital have gone into the incorrect year.  How can I move them around into the correct year or at the very least move them in the current year but in chronological order eg under 2011 I have listed them as 2004 - blah blah, 2005 blah blah but they are "all over the place".  Thank You

    There are two ways to do this.
    The simplest is to right-click on the clip in the Event and modify the date.
    See iMovie Help here http://help.apple.com/imovie/#mov3ac6c398
    If you have a long clip that you would like to split into smaller clips, there is another way. You can drag the long clip into a free tool called MPEG Streamclip from Squared 5. In MPEG Streamclip, put your playhead on the in point of your first smaller clip and type I. Then set the playhead on the out point of your first smaller clip, and press O to set the out point. Then FILE/EXPORT TO QUICKTIME. If your clip is DV, As you save the clip, rename it in the form clip-yyyy-mm-dd hh;mm;ss.ext, where the word "clip" must be lower case. YYYY is year. hh is hours in 24 hour time.  Then repeat this process until you have all your smaller clips made. Finally, you can import all these clips into an iMovie Event using FILE/IMPORT MOVIES.

  • Animated .gif won't loop a specified amount of times

    I created an animated .gif in photoshop and set it to loop twice. It works fine in every other browser except firefox. Here is a test example:
    http://elliottkirby.com/test/
    The box is set to animate across twice. Any thoughts? I tested setting it to loop "forever" and it works in FF...however the ad I'm creating has a loop time limit. I checked my config settings and image animation is set to normal. Thanks!

    From what I understand of your problem;
    - You have made your own animated gifs
    - With the software to make these gifs you have set them to loop their animations 3 times
    - They loop continuously
    I don't see how java can be expected to interpret the animated gif software instructions to loop only 3 times and would assume that there are various proprietry ways of setting this (an assumption based on applets /javascript etc, that rely on the client-side browser interpreter). So, if you loop your animated gif or have any form of animated gif that you import into your program with getDocumentBase /getCodeBase as a (pre-animated) gif, then this is exactly what I would assume would happen.
    The answer is to seperate your images with eg;-
    smiley1[0];
    smiley1[1];
    smiley1[2];
    run a seperate thread, cycle through them as you wish and stop.
    I'm fairly sure that there is nothing in either the swing libraries or the jmf libraries that can resolve this any other way, so your choices are write extra code and have a pool of threads to control this, or leave it as is.

  • No more alpha in exported QuickTime movie from Keynote '09

    Hello
    In Keynote '08, I create a slide with no background (None).
    I add some text with some fancy text IN and OUT features.
    I export using the Animation codec and the transparency option.
    When I reimport the movie in another Keynote '08 file, it inherits the transparency of the imported file and thus everything is perfectly blended.
    In Keynote '09 it is not possible anymore.
    Even if I import an exported QuickTime movie from Motion with a transparent background, it is not possible to have a perfect blend, all layers are opaque.
    Last but not the least, adding transparent files on top of each other in QuickTime player does not preserve transparency despite the fact that the Animation + transparency features are added in the files.
    Thank you in advance.

    Hey Gary - first off, thanks for your reply! I am currently forcing spotlight to re-index to see if that might help me out. After that I will try your suggestion and run a system software check.
    I need a ProRes export as this is going to be combined with IMAG footage from a live presentation as well as additional video from an Arri Alexa. I want to preserve as much quality as possible so that there isn't a discrepancy in the final edit. Originally, I was rendering a small test to the desktop to gauge output quality of animations etc. I did go ahead and re-export a second time to an external drive, but it doesn't seem to matter as Keynote appears to initially render everything to the startup drive no matter what. The second export still ate about 15 gigs from my startup disk and I am unable to find any sort of temp files anywhere!
    I am showing all files in Finder and searching around the ~/private/tmp folders to no avail. In the image below there appears to be a discrepancy in the size being reported by finder and the size I'm seeing listed in terminal...

  • Trouble "exporting movie" from iMovie when uploading to You Tube....

    Hi, I have never had a problem with uploading my projects from iMovie to You Tube off my iPad. I have about 32GB's available on my iPad 3. I only have about 5 projects and never had any hassle going thru the upload process? Now, with my latest project complete (only about 4.5min) I click on upload to You Tube, it then says "exporting movie" as it normally says, but doesn't go any further - just hangs there?
    Any help appreciated!

    well... for anyone else experiencing something similar, here's how I worked around it :
    1. Once I have edited my video in the iMovie app and I want to publish it, I then select the publish option, and then choose YouTube as the place I'd like to publish it.
    2. I then fill out all the fields in the 'Publish to YouTube' form, as if I was about to publish it.
    3. I then select CANCEL, to cancel out of the 'Publish to YouTube' form.
    4. I then exit the iMovie app, and force it to close by going into the app dock and forcing it to close there.
    5. I then re-open the iMovie app, and choose the video I want to publish, select the publish option, choose YouTube as the place I'd like to publish it.
    6. The fields are now already populated with the information I had entered previously, although I still need to select the video quality and also whether it should be public or private.
    7. I now click "publish" and it publishes correctly, with all the correct meta-data / title / description etc. attached.
    This has worked for me consistently over the past couple months now,
    Hope this helps anyone with a similar issue.
    Cheers,
    Nick

  • Trying to export movie from QuickTime Pro to AVI and getting white screen

    Hi there,
    I am trying to export a movie from QuickTime Pro to an an AVI file. It goes through the process as if everything has worked, but when I open the finished file, all I get is a white screen with no audio or picture.
    I need to save lectures from school from the school website to my computer so that I can watch them when I do not have internet access. QuickTime gives me the option to save the video straight from the web, but as soon as I turn off my AirPort it tells me that I need internet to continue watching the movie..
    I need some way to get the files to my computer. Any suggestions?

    I am trying to export a movie from QuickTime Pro to an an AVI file
    AVI is just a container ... specifically, which codec are you using when exporting? And why export to AVI?
    QuickTime gives me the option to save the video straight from the web, but as soon as I turn off my AirPort it tells me that I need internet to continue watching the movie
    That usually means that your system doesn't have the codec installed needed to view the video, but your web browser is using a plugin that does. What format are the web videos? Flash?

  • Exported Movie from FCP 7 to Quicktime. Audio is only bad on ONE COMPUTER with ONE HEADPHONES, why?

    Exported the movie from FCP 7 into a Quicktime video, one problem.
    Have three computers...the audio sounds great on all of them when using headphones #1 (http://www.amazon.com/iHome-LifeTalks-Basic-Headset-Black/dp/B001QXDMVE/ref=sr_1 _8?ie=UTF8&qid=1407521145&sr=8-8&keywords=ihome+headset). Audio also sounds great coming out of two stereo systems.
    But with headphones #2, a cheap pair of "Skull candy" headphones, the audio sounds great on computers 1 and 2, but when I listen to my video on computer 3, there is heavy static and backround noise, like a radio station that is out of tune. Everything else I listen to on computer 3 with headphones 2 sounds totally normal.
    How is such a thing possible?
    What steps can I take to "fix the audio"? I already "normalized the audio" (All audio was: .WAV files, recorded with a zoom H2 recorder). Could this be a hardware issue of some kind? This computer is an AspireX1430 bought 2 years ago, with whatever sound card it came with. I'd hate to put my video online only to find out later that for certain viewers the audio won't plan on their system.
    Thoughts? Thank you!

    Thanks!
    Yeah it is crazy to me that everything with this headphones and computer sounds normal, except for my one video!  Other youtube videos even sound good!
    Sent the video to our marketing department it will be mass emailed to 5000 customers shortly
    I feel confident enough...the video sounds great on 4/5 computers at least and probably a lot more!!!!
