Help Needed Badly. Troubles with exporting video...

Hello, I created this account pretty much just for this problem, and I'm running under a very tight timeline so please if someone could give me an answer it would be very much appreciated. I have spent 8 hours over the past two nights as well as 4 hours today reworking, trying different things and combing the online community for any others experiencing these problems and/or solutions, so I am extremely stressed and tired if you could bare with me. So here it is:
I am editing and compiling a theatre production into a movie. I shot the show three times using a Canon HV30, imported the footage on a school computer (iMac, using iMovie '06), exported it in quicktime onto an external HD, brought it onto my computer (which, stupidly, has no firewire). The total file size was 7 hours of footage (85GB), and as a result my HD has about 300MB left on it, and has been excruciatingly slow. I have finished editing the movie, and I am now attempting to share it. All of the sources I have read tell me to share it in Media Browser, which will be accessible from iDVD. I attempted this many times, however I received multiple different error messages, only after watching it 'working' for 4 hours. Some have said that there was no virtual memory left (even after emptying the cache), some said that there wasn't enough HD space left, the exporting had encountered an error, error messages -50, -49, -48, and -47, and the most prominent one that I have been receiving told me that there had been a "parameter error" or something.
After researching online, I found that the '-50' error messages had to do with exporting to a MSDOS HD, which made sense because I was attempting to export to my iPod (formatted in Windows). My latest efforts have been trying to export it onto my HD, which is formatted for OSX, and has 350GB left on it. And yet, all of the problems persist (including error -50...?) any help would be greatly, greatly appreciated, as the DVD was due two days ago.

+"Alright, so I moved over the footage and deleted it off the internal..."+
Did you move the Events using iMovie? If not, the project pointers become invalid, and you would get the error you did. While moving the event using iMovie, you don't need to "delete" anything!
Couple of options for you to recover from this.
A> (Slower) Move the Events back to the internal HD, and use iM to move the Event to the Ext HD.
B> (Faster, but convoluted) Create an alias for the specific Event folder (now on your ext HD/iMovie Events folder) under your local HD's iM Events folder. IM will now be able to "see" the files on the internal HD, even though they're stored on the Ext HD.
From the Help File: "To keep an item at its original location and put an alias for it in a new folder, hold down the Command and Option keys while you drag the item."
Sorry you're having to jump through hoops to get this working...

Trouble with HD videos on Satellite M70

HI,
I recently bought a M70-208. It seems that I experience trouble with HD video both with VLC and WMP. For example, while playing the demo video of "HDtoGo", the flow is very slow. Other non Toshiba notebook that I'm using for my job is playing this video smoothly, despite its lower configuration.
I tried different combination of Energy management, but it still the same. I can't understand what's going on.
Apart from that, this notebook makes me happy (6900 point at 3D mark05).
Thanks for helping me.

Hi
Maybe is my English not so good but what you mean under flow? Is there any kind of bucking while video plays?
Maybe some application in background occupied the CPU and because of that the video doesnt run well. Try to check it.
Anyway, as you said this unit has very good value on graphic test. Friend of mine has M70-257.
Bye

Having trouble with the video function..

I just purchased the 60GB ipod photo. I'm transferring music files easily. However, I'm having trouble with the video function. I've loaded Itunes 6, reloaded the original setup disk, and have loaded the latest updates for the unit. I can download movies from the itunes store and save them to my library, but I cant seem to transfer the video files to the ipod. Ive reinstalled itunes and the update 6 with no success. After syncing the ipod it only shows the music files even after all that Ive tried. Additionally, there is no evidence of the video function on the main menu after the update attempts. Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong? I'm eager to get past this problem so that I can start tranfering personal movies and video files.

You Have an iPod Photo, You do NOT have a 5th Generation Video iPod. Get it? You need the 5G model to play video.
If the salesman told you it was the 5G model he lied, was ignorant or both. If video is important or if thats what you thought you were getting you will need to return your 4G iPod photo for new iPod.

i am having trouble with downloading videos from my Sony HDR-XR160 video camera. iMovie doesnt open up when i connect the camcorder. any suggesions?

Looking up your camera online, I found it is capable of 1920 x 1080 Full HD 60p Recording. It's the 60p (60 frames per second Progressive) that's the problem I think. iMovie '11 will do 60i (Interlaced). You might need to convert it from the format the camera currently uses into another format to get it into iMovie. Read more about it on this link here: How to import 60p footage From that message thread comes the recommendation to use ClipWrap to convert the camera's video clips now that they are in 60p:

Use ClipWrap to rewrap to QuickTime. Import the files. Edit in either 59.94 or 29.97. The latter if you want to use the high frame rate for slomo

I'm having problem with exporting video from premiere pro cc 2014

I'm using Adobe Premiere Pro CC 2014 and I'm having problem with exporting video.
When I click Export and media, the window for exporting appears and it starts exporting video.
But after a few minutes, it looks like it has completed exporting video and says there's a bug in exporting.
It literally says it has a problem with compiling, but I don't know what the real problem is.
I tried many things like restarting computer and Premire Pro but it's no use.
But it works when I use Adobe Media Encoder CC 2014 for exporting video.
If anyone knows any possibilities about why this problem happens, please let me know.

I'm having a similar issue. When I go to export my project, I add it to the render queue, set it up with the h.264 settings that I've used with countless past versions of the program, and then hit render. Randomly, at some point in the process, the render just stops and the ETA just keeps climbing. I actually had to save an XMF file of the CC 2014 project and bring it into the previous CC version of Premiere just to finish it. Even a clean re-install of CC 2014 doesn't work.

Old EXP IMP doesnt have capability to append the row, since you're using 10g use datapump instead. use option TABLE_EXISTS_ACTION=APPENDso my import should be like this

Did you look up the command line syntax and control options for imp?
You should make it a habit that whenever anyone - especially a stranger on the web - gives you a bit of code or references a command or init parm or any some such, the VERY FIRST thin you should ALWAYS do is look it up for yourself and see exactly where and how it is used and what it means. That is how you grow beyond having to be spoon fed every little thing and become more self-sufficient.
If you had, you would have seen that there is no TABLE_EXISTS_ACTION option for imp and seen that it is an option for impdp. And realized that exp and imp are NOT the same thing as expdp and impdp.

Learning how to look things up in the documentation is time well spent investing in your career. To that end, you should drop everything else you are doing and do the following:
Go to tahiti.oracle.com.
Drill down to your product and version.
BOOKMARK THAT LOCATION
Spend a few minutes just getting familiar with what is available here. Take special note of the "books" and "search" tabs. Under the "books" tab you will find the complete documentation library.
Spend a few minutes just getting familiar with what kind of documentation is available there by simply browsing the titles under the "Books" tab.
Open the Reference Manual and spend a few minutes looking through the table of contents to get familiar with what kind of information is available there.
Do the same with the SQL Reference Manual.
Do the same with the Utilities manual.
You don't have to read the above in depth. They are reference manuals. Just get familiar with what is there to be referenced. Ninety percent of the questions asked on this forum can be answered in less than 5 minutes by simply searching one of the above manuals.
Then set yourself a plan to dig deeper.
- Read a chapter a day from the Concepts Manual.
- Take a look in your alert log. One of the first things listed at startup is the initialization parms with non-default values. Read up on each one of them (listed in your alert log) in the Reference Manual.
- Take a look at your listener.ora, tnsnames.ora, and sqlnet.ora files. Go to the Network Administrators manual and read up on everything you see in those files.
- When you have finished reading the Concepts Manual, do it again.

Trouble with large videos

I'm wondering if anyone has had any trouble with large videos in their stacks? We are using a clip that weighs in at about 311 MB and my art director is reporting some trouble getting it into InDesign.
A shorter clip weighing in at 170 MB is working just fine.
Any ideas?

That is a pretty small file for being 7 hours long.
Have you tried using interpolation and converting the hours, seconds and frames into all seconds or does that defeat the object of the composition? I have a bunch of movies taken with the same camera and some do not provide a timecode. Has been an issue for me for a while. In X.6.+ even apple created comps cause the finder and QC to crash.

Please please help trouble with exported quality

please please help me> i have been searching the net for over 3 hrs for a solution and whatever I have found has been a little too technical for me . I am uploading video to i movie from a disk. the file types on the disk are mp4. I am then editing the clips on iMovie '09 when I go to export the movie I am chosing to export movie as a "large" 960x540
.mov file. The quality ***...it is blurry and grainy and unusable. Someone in another forum told me to run the mp4 movie in quicktime and tell them what movie inspector says about the clip. Movie inspector says:
Formatt: Apple MPEG4 Decompressor, 640 × 480, Millions
FPS: 29.97
Playing FPS: 30
Data size 129 MB
Data Rate: 1504.39 kbits/s
Size 640 x 480
I am dying over here any help please? and thank you all so much

once I share to the media browser where does it go? cant find it.
It's "hidden" in your user folder Movies>iMovie Projects. Right-click (Control-click) on the name of your Project and select "Show Package Contents". In the folder named Movies you will see your exported file. It could be either a .m4v or .mov file, or possibly another type, depending on whether standard definition or high definition and the size option chosen when exported. If you are producing a DVD, you drag the file from iDVD's Media-Movies pane onto the Theme background.
Also, when sharing to the media browser I can only save it as "medium" quality...the other choices arent available?
Then AppleMan's earlier advice will be correct (as always) - he recommended using the Medium setting based on your QuickTime details. It appears that your original MP4 video has an aspect ratio of 4:3, unless your Project settings are incorrect. You set the dimensions (standard 4:3, widescreen 16:9 or iPhone 3:2) of the project in File>Project Properties then selecting the General tab.
In iMovie '09, I've mainly worked with AVCHD video which produces .MTS files that are converted to AIC (Apple Intermediate Codec) on import. This is high definition footage which iMovie can import as 1920 x 1080 or 960 x 540 (both widescreen 16:9). Hence, on export I can share at Large (960 x 540) or HD (1280 x 720). I'm not sure why you are only seeing a Medium option - could be due to the aspect ratio or maybe it's standard definition in MP4 format (just guessing!). If other options are greyed out, have you tried ticking the boxes - that activates each option for me.

Trouble with Exported .pdf Files

I created three 20"x30" one-page documents (with iPhoto-sourced images) which saved as 24.7 MB, 19.4 MB, and 10.7 MB files, respectively. I needed to send JPEG files to my service provider for high-resolution prints. Since Pages '08 doesn't have a JPEG-export option, I exported each of them as .pdf files. My plan was to open the .pdf files in Photoshop and save them down as .jpg files. The same path had worked fine with a fourth Pages '08 layout of a 2.25"x3.75" document. With the three 20"x30" files, however, I ran into trouble.
My laptop didn't have enough memory to open the exported .pdf files in Photoshop Elements without suffering some image gray-out. I didn't think that was a problem until we discovered that my service provider couldn't open the files at all (running the current Photoshop on a souped-up system). Arghhh.
I switched to a service provider who can print straight from the .pdf files, but that also brought trouble. Though I could open the files easily in Acrobat 5.0, and they looked great, the service provider (running the current full version of Acrobat) could not open them; all he got was what looked like a blank page.
I don't think the trouble is related to file size, as the business-card document which sailed through without trouble saved as an 11.2 MB Pages file.
Could it be sheet size? That's the only thing I can figure. And why would the files open in Acrobat 5.0 without trouble, but not in the current Acrobat (or Acrobat Professional, which we also tried)?
I ended up "printing" the Pages files as "Save PDF to iPhoto," then exporting the iPhoto image as a maximum-resolution JPEG. The only trouble with that route was that the best I could get was a 200 dpi. When I went through Photoshop (instead of iPhoto) with the business card file, I ended up with a 300 dpi file.
Am I missing something obvious here? Any help would be appreciated.

Hi,
I don't know if this is the correct answer, but you can open a PDF in Preview and save the document as a JPEG and JPEG-2000. I know that Leopard will also have some neat functionality about this as well. You might also want to look at printing as a postscript file rather than a PDF and then open in Photoshop. I talked with a FEDEX/Kinkos employee yesterday about my book at he stated that Macs use 1.5 while Adobe's Acrobat is 1.7. Leopard should also fix this, but it may not help right now.

More trouble with exporting for web

Alright,
Sorry to say but I am still having trouble converting/exporting my film trailer to the website for PC users to be able to access it.
I converted it to a quicktime movie film from FCP, which plays beautifully but apparently PC users can't see it still.
I have tried exporting to Compressor and tried every format there (mobile devices, web and so on...) they all came out pretty blurry.
Does anybody have a full proof plan for converting/exporting for website viewing (PC and Mac compatible)?????
P.S. It may help some of you to see the problem on the page http://www.inthelandofsmiles.com/Site/Film_Trailer.html
THANKS IN ADVANCE!

I will second the Flash suggestion. Great a .flv file and play it on your site with a flv player. Some are more difficult than others to use.
NOTHING is fool proof with this kind of stuff. Flash has the highest install rate on all computers and is as close as you can get to fool proof. You can also put a link on you site to download the latest flash player. The other plus is that it tends to have the best results with low file sizes. This is what YouTube and similar sites use to play their video.
PS. I highly suggest this flv player... It's free for non-commercial use and almost free for other uses...

URGENT help needed in creating external xml video plalist. Please help!

I was given an assignment to create and external video playlist using an xml file. I have never used flash before, know nothing about encoding and all that was given to the class in terms of instuctions was a short tutorial that has no resources for troubleshooting. We were given everything; the external playlist file equipped with the video skin, the video list, actionscript that loads the xml and the xml file. We were told that all we need to do is change the names of the videos in the xml file to match the names of our videos. I did that. We were also told we needed to "name target", but we were not informed on how to do this. I have tried everything, visited every tutorial and I cannot figure out how to get this damn thing to work. I cannot even get flash to load the xml file. PLEASE HELP.
Here is the xml file:
<?xml version = "1.0" encoding = "i-8859-1"?>
<playlist>
<ADogWithoutABone
flvurl="ADogWithoutABone.flv"
desc="Hyper Wall First Video" />
<Highway
flvurl="Highway.flv"
desc="Hyper Wall Second Video" />
<PsychoBabble
flvurl="PsychoBabble.flv"
desc="Hyper Wall Third Video" />
<SomethingElse
flvurl="SomethingElse.flv"
desc="Hyper Wall Fourth Video" />
</playlist>
I tried putting in the entire address of the file location, but it did nothing.
Here is the actionscript in the flash file:
var xmlLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
xmlLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, xmlLoaded);
xmlLoader.load(new URLRequest("playlistXML.xml"));
function xmlLoaded(event:Event):void {
var playlistXML:XML = new XML(event.target.data);
var item:XML;
for each(item in playlistXML.videoname) {
trace("item: "+item.attribute("flvurl").toXMLString());
myPlayList.addItem({label:item.attribute("desc").toXMLString(), data:item.attribute("flvurl").toXMLString()});
//Select the first video
myPlayList.selectedIndex = 0;
//And automatically play it
myPlayScreen.play(myPlayList.selectedItem.data);
//Add a listener to detect when new video is selected and play it
function listListener(event:Event) {
myPlayScreen.play(event.target.selectedItem.data);
myPlayList.addEventListener(Event.CHANGE, listListener);
I tried placing the full address of the xml file in, along with the file address of the videos, but again it did nothing. Everything is located in the same file, and the videos in a sub file in that file. I tried taking out the sub file and putting all the videos in the same file, but it did nothing. I am sure it's something very simple, but like I said I have NO experience with this whatsoever. I am SO lost and DESPERATELY need help. PLEASE someone SAVE MEEEE!
Thanks

It might be a crossdomain.xml problem.
Please make sure that the server hosting the xml allows the domain where the swf is hosted.
You can start with:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<cross-domain-policy>
<allow-access-from domain="*"/>
<site-control permitted-cross-domain-policies="master-only"/>
</cross-domain-policy>

Issues with exporting video from MacBook Pro to flash drive

I cannot sucessfully transfer [export] video taken on my gopro camera, from my MacBook Pro to any flash drive and play them on other computers. For some reason the files are not playable, even with quicktime. They will not play with ANY of my video softwares such as divx or any AVCHD software on a windows computer. I need to make a presentation for a club trip in a few days! Can any one please suggest what is wrong? They play on the Mac using Flip player but not quicktime!
Oh, and I don't have issues with transfering or exporting Jpegs or other photo formats. Only video.

hmmm.. the files from GoPro are already mp4 format. The Flash is already FAT32, brand new 16gig...
I am new to Macs but have no problems with PC's. I suspect that because the files are exporting as shadowed files which won't play and are very small kb files, yet they are actually in excess of 140 mb each that it might have something to do with the iphoto software? That's where the pics and video are, they imported to there by default, not to a folder in the home folder [which is where I would have expected them to be]
By the way, the GoPro is already in mp4 format so it is easy when transferring to computers. No need to convert. I tried converting them to see what the outcome might be, and none worked! I tried every format I could find using Video converter ultimate software, which is excellent.
And the problems began when quicktime wouldnt play the file, the screen was black.

Trouble with ichat video

I dont know if this is any where else in the forum but i am haveing trouble getting a video chat to work. The person im trying to chat with has a macbook as well. at first we had to try a few times to get it to work and then we did. when we got back on after ending our first one 10 mins ago we couldnt get it to work.
Why would this happen if we had already gotten it to work? it says that it failed to connect because i didnt respond although i clicked accept. when i would do that it would say connecting video with _ and then give an error note after a few seconds.
If anyone could help that would be great

Hi
First have you set the Quicktime streaming setting, goto sys prefs/quicktime/streaming/streaming speed, set to 1.5mbps(dont use automatic)
In ichats prefs click on video and change bandwidth limit to NONE.
Restart iChat.

Trouble with Playing Video Files

I have a new macbook pro and I am having trouble playing video files. It seems like it is having trouble with the size of the file. I need to get this figured out because I will be doing a lot of work with video including using final cut to edit. Any suggestions for me to speed up video play?

Any suggestions for me to speed up video play?
Max out your ram.
It seems like it is having trouble with the size of the file.
Please clarify.
Are the videos home made, downloaded from the net, browser videos, streaming videos, etc.

Having Trouble With 25fps Video in CS4

Whenever I try to play something recording in a PAL format (1080p25 to be precise). I've had sure the preset is set on 1080p25 and I have no trouble playing the video on programs that aren’t Adobe Premiere. When I try to play it in Premiere it might stick on one frame for a few seconds, then show about 1 frame every 3 seconds, then maybe stop for another 7 seconds.
Anything that’s in a NTSC framerate plays fine, but the only HD camera I have only records in 25p or 50i, so using 29.97fps isn’t an option. What’s going on here and what am I doing wrong?

The camera is a Canon Legria HFM31. Not sure about the PC specs, it's a laptop my school provided. What do you need to know?
Okay, I tried the same footage with (the godawful) Windows Live Movie Maker, and it's struggles to play the video for the first 10 seconds but after that I get a smooth frame rate and can pause, play, skip ahead, etc without any issues.
I tried with an interlaced video, and its fine in Adobe Premiere! What's going on here? Does Adobe just not like PAL prog scan videos?
