Is it possible to transfer Full-HD videos (from a Full-HD camcorder) from iMovie 11 to compressor 4 and create there a AVCHD DVD which can be played in HD quality at a PS/3?

Yes.
In iMovie use SHARE/Export Movie.
http://help.apple.com/imovie/#mov3a9e5615
Choose 1920x1080 (or size of your choice.
Give it a name and location.
You can drag this file into Compressor.
In Compressor, use "Create BluRay Disk"
That should work fine.
There is another alternative, where you could skip the DVD and Compressor.
Just SHARE/EXPORT USING QUICKTIME
Choose Movie to MP4
In Options, choose h.264 as the Codec.
Choose a bit rate of 16000 or less.
Create the movie.
You can then put it on a USB thumb drive and play it on the PS3.

Importing video from a JVC HD7U camcorder into iMovie 11

I am having trouble importing video from a JVC HD7U camcorder into iMovie 11. The import screen shows up and recognizes the camera with the time counter activating but there is no image on the screen and the record or import buttons do not seem to do anything. I have followed the instructions from the manual and others found online. Someone please help. Terry

Hi Brady,
I have a new Everio HD that I have been fooling with all day. Finally got a clip into iMovie 6 ....but only once and I'm still figuring this out too.....if you are not using a HD camera this may or may not work for you.
The Everio Quicktime extension must be installed. (Download and install the patch if you upgrade to Leopard).
Is your camera an HD? If so you need to capture the clip in 1440 CDR not FHD (FullHighDef).
Launch iMovie 6. Create a new movie in Video format HDV 1080i . then plug in your camera via firewire.
Put the camera in playback mode (Play/REC), press the Function, select Dubbing Playback (bottom of the menu). You should get a menu with a start button now. Switch to iMovie 6 and select "Import". This should start the clip playing from the camera....you may have to hit the Start on the camera.
This should get your clips into i Movie.
We may be ably to create playlists and get them in that way too but I have not had any luck with the JVC instructions to do this. There are video tutorials on the JVC website too but again they have not worked for me.
There is also a way to get and work the FHD files but that is a USB file transfer followed by a file conversion. I'll tackle that a little later...
Good luck,
Roger

HT1382 Is there anyway to convert video taken by ipad and burn it to a DVD that can play on DVD player?

Is there anyway to convert video taken by ipad and burn it to a DVD that can play on DVD player?

Persius,
Nearly every DVD that will play on a set-top player *should* play on a computer, provided two things:
1.) the computer has a DVD player that can handle that flavor of DVD media, DVD RW, DVD-R, DVD+R, DVD DL, etc.
2.) the computer has a software player installed. This feature has been removed from some common media players. You may need to locate, download and install a separate software player.
There could be another discussion on interlaced vs progressive scan media, but I'll let you ask that question.

ON WINDOWS 8 LAPTOP: Firefox CANNOT play any video on Yahoo News, seriously, this is so freaking sad, Please help...., it just can't play. Please HELP.

To many people, this might sound like a Joke when i say Firefox can't play any video on Yahoo News on any Windows 8 Laptop Touchcreen, but trust me, I have tried everything; re-downloading Java, Flash-player, Adobe...etc, I even called Microsoft Support and my Computer company but they all said this is Firefox drama they should be able to fix the issue. Please help. I have three Computers and all can't play any video on Yahoo News, (Youtube is playing great, no issues). Please help.

Is this the problem where it shows the loading icon (circling, circling) but never starts playing? Other users have reported that as well.
This is some standard guidance that addresses the most common issues with the Flash player plugin. I'm sure you've seen some of it before, but just in case:
(1) Make sure all recorders/downloaders that interact with Flash media are as up-to-date as possible, or disable them.
(2) Disable hardware graphics acceleration in Firefox and in Flash
(A) In Firefox, un-check the box here and restart:
orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced > General > "Use hardware acceleration when available"
(B) In Flash, see this support article from Adobe: http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/video-playback-issues.html#main_Solve_video_playback_issues
(3) Disable protected mode (Windows Vista/7/8)
See this support article from Adobe under the heading "Last Resort": [http://forums.adobe.com/message/4468493#TemporaryWorkaround Adobe Forums: How do I troubleshoot Flash Player's protected mode for Firefox?]
Since you mentioned touch, does it matter whether you interact with the player using the mouse or your finger?

IS IT POSSIBLE TO PLACE AN EMBEDED VIDEO IN I WEB. LIKE FROM YOUTUBE

CAN YOU EMBED YOU TUBE VIDEOS INTO IWEB? IF SO HOW?
THANKS -JAMIE

Yes, it is. At YouTube or Google Video you will be given the HTML snippet for your video. You must take this code snippet and insert it into the HTML file for your iWeb page. Here are some basic steps...
1. Decide where you want your video and know exactly what dimensions you need (you should see the width and height in the code snippet)
2. Insert a text box onto your iWeb page and adjust its size to exactly your dimensions.
3. Type in some uniquely identifiable text like, "VIDEOHERE" without changing the font or anything else...just type it in.
4. Publish your page with iWeb.
5. Find the html file associated with your published page (either on your iDisk or in a folder depending on how you published) and open it in any text editor like TextEdit (don't forget to change the "open and sav" preferences to ignore rich text format)
6. Scroll through the html file and locate your placeholder text, e.g. "VIDEOHERE".
7. Replace the placeholder text with your html code and SAVE your page. (JUST SAVE, not save as...)
That's it. You should see your video show up in Safari exactly where you placed the text box in iWeb.
Examples:
http://web.mac.com/jwtseng/iWeb/kate/MyWorld/6C457884-51D7-4643-9DA8-AB149E6B544 F.html

http://funhouse.dirtdoog.com <== click on the baby with the bag
A few tips to help you find the correct file to edit... Example... if your page is named "movie" then the file you will want to find is called movie.html. All of your iWeb files live inside the sitefolder which is on your iDisk in the /Web/Sites/iWeb/ folder (assuming you are publishing to .Mac).
Keep in mind also, that since iWeb knows nothing about your editing activities, it will overwrite your changes anytime the page is republished by iWeb. You may want to get familiar with free programs like MassReplaceIt that will save your editing activity and enable you to redo them with the click of the mouse. http://www.hexmonkeysoftware.com/
Programs like iWebEnhancer basically do the same thing without making you look through your HTML files. But I don't think iWebEnhancer is free.

How to import video files from Canon HG20 HD camcorder to iMovie 09?

Hi. I have no idea how to this. I have a Canon HG20 HD camcorder. It came with software that doesn't run on Mac. How do I import the videos I took in there into my iMovie? Do I need any special equipment? All I have now is the USB cable.
When I plug it in the computer sees it but the .MTS files cannot be clicked on and whenever I try to select a file and click "import" something bounces up and says it's not a camera archive.
Can someone please give me a step-by-step guide? I'm a confused newb here =)

There's no need to manually import files on a Canon AVCHD camera like that - iMovie should be able to connect and see them automatically.
Attach the camera, and set it to movie playback mode. Some cameras require that you connect them to power while you're transferring media. You may also have to choose "Connect to PC" on the camera menu itself.
Open iMovie (if it doesn't launch automatically). Click on the Camera Import icon to the middle-left of the window (or click cmd-i). YOu should get an Import window showing you the clips on the camera/card, which you can choose individually or import all.

If I have diferent video clips in a DVD how can I play continuosly?

I created a DVD with so many diferent videos as a chapters but when I play the disc I have to see it one by one because I don't know how to create the option of "play it all"
Whatever hint is going to be really appreciated.

iDvd never had (and still doesn't have) a play all button. Sorry. However, Apple's Pro apps do (ie DVDSP).
A less expensive approach is to use Roxio Toast for this. For example:

What is the best practice for full browser video to achieve the highest quality?

I'd like to get your thoughts on the best way to deliver full-browser (scale to the size of the browser window) video. I'm skilled in the creation of the content but learning to make the most out of Flash CS5 and would love to hear what you would suggest.
Most of the tutorials I can find on full browser/scalable video are for earlier versions of Flash; what is the best practice today? Best resolution/format for the video?
If there is an Adobe guide to this I'm happy to eat humble pie if someone can redirect me to it; I'm using CS5 Production Premium.
I like the full screen video effect they have on the "Sounds of pertussis" web-site; this is exactly what I'm trying to create but I'm not sure what is the best way to approach it - any hints/tips you can offer would be great?
Thanks in advance!

Use the little squares over your video to mask the quality. Sounds of Pertussis is not full screen video, but rather full stage. Which is easier to work with since all the controls and other assets stay on screen. You set up your html file to allow full screen. Then bring in your video (netstream or flvPlayback component) and scale that to the full size of your stage (since in this case it's basically the background) . I made a quickie demo here. (The video is from a cheapo SD consumer camera, so pretty poor quality to start.)
In AS3 is would look something like
import flash.display.Loader;
import flash.net.URLRequest;
import flash.display.Bitmap;
import flash.display.BitmapData;
import flash.ui.Mouse;
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
import flash.display.StageDisplayState;
stage.align = StageAlign.TOP_LEFT;
stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.NO_SCALE;
// determine current stage size
var sw:int = int(stage.stageWidth);
var sh:int = int(stage.stageHeight);
// load video
var nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
nc.connect(null);
var ns:NetStream = new NetStream(nc);
var vid:Video = new Video(656, 480); // size off video
this.addChildAt(vid, 0);
vid.attachNetStream(ns);
//path to your video_file
ns.play("content/GS.f4v");
var netClient:Object = new Object();
ns.client = netClient;
// add listener for resizing of the stage so we can scale our assets
stage.addEventListener(Event.RESIZE, resizeHandler);
stage.dispatchEvent(new Event(Event.RESIZE));
function resizeHandler(e:Event = null):void
// determine current stage size
    var sw:int = stage.stageWidth;
    var sh:int = stage.stageHeight;
// scale video size depending on stage size
    vid.width = sw;
    vid.height = sh;
// Don't scale video smaller than certain size
    if (vid.height < 480)
    vid.height = 480;
    if (vid.width < 656)
    vid.width = 656;
// choose the smaller scale property (x or y) and match the other to it so the size is proportional;
    (vid.scaleX > vid.scaleY) ? vid.scaleY = vid.scaleX : vid.scaleX = vid.scaleY;
// add event listener for full screen button
fullScreenStage_mc.buttonMode = true;
fullScreenStage_mc.mouseChildren = false;
fullScreenStage_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, goFullStage, false, 0, true);
function goFullStage(event:MouseEvent):void
    //vid.fullScreenTakeOver = false; // keeps flvPlayer component from becoming full screen if you use it instead
    if (stage.displayState == StageDisplayState.NORMAL)
        stage.displayState=StageDisplayState.FULL_SCREEN;
    else
        stage.displayState=StageDisplayState.NORMAL;

Video output to full screen?

I have a situation where I need to synch multiple separate recorded backing tracks with video in a live performance situation with a live band. I was told that Logic 8 allows for outputting full screen video synched to music tracks. I have tested this and gotten as far as having my Quicktime video synched to the backing tracks - all working weell, however I cannot output the video to full screen mode. I can output just a Quicktime file to full screen mode, but not Logic.
Are you able to do this on Logic 8 or was I given bum information about it's capabilities when I bought it? Do I need a specific video card maybe (I didn't think so since Quicktime works in fullscreen mode).
I'm using a PowerBook g4 currently.
Thanks!
Sean

Sorry guys but this is a bit confusing to me- I am not that familiar with the video stuff...
I know that if I run Quicktime on my Mac and go to full screen mode then it works fine. It even works with my Mac hooked up to a video projector. So my computer can output full screen (in Quicktime). However, Logic will not go into full screen mode when I tell it to.
So, since I can go into full screen mode in Quicktime does this mean that Logic should also be able to - or does this mean that the Logic program requires this box you're talking about in order to do full screen mode?
Also, I'm not sure what this box does exactly or what I have to "import" and where I have to "import" it to.
Again I am making videos that will accompany a live band but must be synched to the backing tracks and the drummer's click track that will be located on my Mac laptop. So all I need is the video that is synched to my Logic song file to output to full screen when I connect it to a video projector.
Thanks...

I don't know about NTSC but there is a nice PAL solution for SD 16:9 for ordinary DVDs. The 16:9 image becomes 720x576 pixels. So the pixels are each quite wide, and the horizontal resolution is less than the vertical resolution, but at least no pixels are wasted as with letterbox.
A semi-solution is to make a HD-DVD. That format has been abandoned but Apple software pretends otherwise. Apple Compressor does compressions at around 20 Megabits/second data rate specifically for HD-DVD, and Apple DVD Studio Pro makes HD-DVDs. For short projects, less than around 30 minutes, the HD-DVD can be made on a normal DVD. (I did this for a 40 minute project by cutting the bitrate somewhat.) The quality is almost equal to Blu-Ray, but who can play it? People with well equipped Apples can.

Can't play video burned on PC

My son created a slideshow with audio and graphics on his PC, but I can't play it on my Mac. I have QuickTime 7.6 plus Flip4Mac WMV 2.2.1 but I can't figure out how to play the video. When I try to open the DVD, all I get are 4 folders named EXT, MPEG2, PICTURES, SEGMENT and SVCD.
Suggestions? Thank you.

If it is a SCVD or VCD:
VCD is a low cost way of putting what starts as OK videos into a really mediocre 320X240 MPEG-1 format to fit a CD and is VERY popular for Karaoke, and SVCD is a way of putting DVD quality (sort of) MPEG-2 on a CD instead of a DVD:
Put the CD in your computer.
Open the CD in finder.
Look for the largest file in one of the folders - for VCD it is called AVSEQ01.DAT.
For SVCD it is called AVSEQ01.mpg
Rename it whatever you like with an extension of .mpg (not DAT).
Play in MPEG Streamclip or VLC or even Quicktime if it is a VCD as that is only MPEG-1 which works. To play MPEG-2 from a SVCD you need to pay for the Apple MPEG-2 codec or use VLC instead.

Using iTunes store I hv purchased 5 Video songs driectly on iPhone.I have paid $1.30 per song. Now I am not able to play those songs on iphone.I am getting error message "Unknown Error" If I do not connect any WiFi or 3G.

When WiFi or 3G data services are off it gices error message- "Unknown Error". I have spent so much money and can't play my Video songs on iPhone without using networ.
Please help.

I am experiencing the same issue as dwarfland. I have a black 64GB iPhone 5s running iOS version 7.1.1 and a grandfathered unlimited data plan with AT&T. I have had an iTunes Match subscription pretty much since it was introduced. I currently have around 19500 songs in my music library and try to have only around 2000-2500 songs physically located on the phone itself (all of my "top-rated" songs in a single playlist). I have recently needed to re-download all these "top-rated" songs after I restored my phone from a backup, wiping all the songs from my phone. Thanks for posting your experiences, hopefully someone from Apple will notice and help us out with a solution.
