No video when converting M4V to FLV

Hi,
I ripped a DVD with Handbreak by using their HighProfile. The output produced was an 11 minute m4v video encoded with x264. I tested this video, and it works just fine. Now when I try to convert it with AME 4.2 I tried the following presets:
F4V same as source (Flash 9.0.r115 and Higher)
F4V Web Large, Widescreen Source (Flash 9.0.r115 and Higher)
F4V Web Medium, Widescreen Source (Flash 9.0.r115 and Higher)
Every single test resulted in a black screen with no audio for 164 minutes.
Now this computer has a Adobe Web Premium CS4, but it also has some sort of AME 5.5 trial.
I wouldn't expect them to conflict with each other, but I don't know.
Any Ideas?
Thank you,

Instead of ripping to such a highly compressed format, and then further compressing it again, try this:

No audio channels (only video) when converting/exporting media formats

Hi,
Last year i bought a license for quicktime 7 but i still have problems when converting.
Als with the new iTunes7 the problem still relies.
When i am converting a mpeg file to the m4v in iTunes the problem is the same.
It doens't matter which media format i get, but after the conversion is done... there are no audio channels!
When u look at the movie info option in the quicktime menu, you can see an video channel, but no audio. the orginal files do get video and audio channels...
about 6 months ago i contacted apple support for this, but the problem still relies..
Does anybody know a fix or maybe Apple can investigate this important bug!! In the past i have used Videora iPod coverter that does the job correct and muchhh faster, but i want quicktime to do that!!!
Regards,
Rick Beemsterboer

Quicktime has never exported the sound from muxed mpeg-1 or -2 files: QT Mpeg Limitations
You can run a separate demuxer to get the audio stream out or just use this freeware that exports both video and audio from mpegs to other formats: Mpeg StreamClip

How can I get my ipad Pages app to keep video when converting to epub file?

I am trying to create a epub file to be opened in Ibook using Pages on the IPad. I have inserted a video and when I go to export to Ibooks it gives me a warning that video has been converted into an image. I have created this same video on a desktop computer and been able to email and open it in IBook on my IPAD.
Is there a way to have video embedded on the IPAD Pages app to be able to be published as an epub and be able to be opened later.

I'm wondering about this also. Even when importing very small videos it converts into pictures... Hope someone can shed some light on this matter for us!

How to import two AVI video files & convert to one FLV ?

Status:
- Newbie using PC & Flash CS3 ver9l
- I can import a single AVI video file and convert it to an FLV video.
Problem:
- I have two AVI video files... one 4GB (20 minute) long and one 2GB (10 minute) long... and want to combine them to have a single 30 minute long FLV video file.
Question:
- Can I do this in Flash? When I "convert" a single AVI video to a FLV using the File, Import method... I can't really see the video on the Flash time line. I'm a newbie so I'm probably doing something wrong.
- I tried doing a File, Import for file-1.avi and then doing it for file-2.avi... but the two were on top of each other... and not end to end.
Maybe some kind sould will walk me through this.
Thanks for any help.

Your not going to be able to combine two videos as one in flash, if your using Win try Win Movie Maker, I believe you can drag both into a WMVM timeline and can then save as one file, then you can use AVC video converter or the like to encode them into an .flv or.f4v file.

Adobe Premiere - blurred video when convertering from MOV to AVI

Hey!
When I exporting my video I made with my iphone (.MOV) to .AVI then the videos quality gets worse that it should be.
What does that depends on and what can I do to fix it?

The phone. Don't use the phone to change the wrapper. Use a converter or better yet, use a video camera. Use a phone to make calls.

Videos when converted have no audio

i have a ipod classic...just bought it...i have alot of videos in the quicktime format...when i convert for ipod it converts the file however there is no sound...i saw someone else had the same problem...has there been a solution???
help!!

Quicktime or Quicktime Pro (which iTunes uses) don't convert "muxed" ( muxed means multiplexed where the audio and video are stored on the same track) video files properly. It only plays the video and not the audio.
See:iPod plays video but not audio.
You need a 3rd party converter to convert the file with both audio and video.
See this for help: Guide to converting video for iPod (Mac/Windows).

IPhone video, when converted is upside down?

Hi - I can't find too much on this.... When I record video on my iphone and import to Aperture it plays fine. When I convert the .mov file to mp4 via various convertors, the video always plays updide down??!!
Anyone?
TIA

You need to address that question to the developers of the converting software you use.

No Sound On Video When Converted

Hey kids,
been trying for months to get my videos that i have downloaded to play on Ipod. now my flatmate has the same issue. really stressed out here with it...
Any help??

1. What iPod do you have?
2. Which software do you use?
3. It would be helpful to fill in your computer info in your profiles so that I could now if your running Mac OSX or Windows?
4. Have you converted to the right resolution?

Strobelike Video when converted from 1080i - 720x480

I've been running into this problem quite a bit... my opening segment which was made on Adobe After Effects is having a strobe-like interlaced look during periods of quick movement.
I was instructed that the issue would be resolved by overlaying the 1080i Timeline onto a Standard Def Timeline ... but that didn't seem to fix the issue (when viewed on a television).
Can anyone explain the technicalities of why this issue periodically comes up? I know that a good part of the problem is that I am on FCP 5.1.4. However, I know it can be manually fixed if I can get some insight into what causes this problem.

Sounds like a field order problem.
Try reversing them (if set to upper - try lower ... or vice versa).

Got problems when converting video to 640*480 m4v

guys, I got compatibility issues when convert videos to 640*480 h264 m4v.
I tried MepgStreamclip, and the export to mp4 quicktime mov in Quicktime. ALL FAILED.
I followed all these 1.5mbps, 640*480, aac-lc requirements when did the conversion.However, my ipod will not recognize of the files.
I have also noticed that the "Export to Ipod" preset in Quicktime has been changed to 640*480. BUT, what keeps annoying me is the preset is so idiotic!! It ignores the source bps and simply converts everything to 1.5mbps. I got 25mb file after conversion as the source file is 11mb.
Could anyone kindly point out the Right procedure to convert video to ipod format Manually...... I want to have full control when I am doing this.
thanks a lot

any suggestions?

Why cant I import M4V or FLV files into my I-Movie video? Please HELP!

I just got the new Mac Desktop and REALLY hate that I cant drap and drop videos into the newer (i-Life11) -Imovie like I was used to since 2010. Seems to only work for photos. Is there a way around that?
So I am making a church youth group video where I have spent HOURS trying to get parts of Youtube videos into the video to show them. I have 2 forms saved on my desktop thanks to the software - i have a FLV video and a M4V - both converted. The Imovie already has plenty of clips that are M4V in them so I know it will take that form. It just wont let me import them..they are there but are not accesible (they are 'faded') under the File/Import/Movies/Desktop or File/Movies/RealPlayerDownloads. They aren't darkened and and I cant do anything with them.
What am I doing wrong?
HELP please. Thanks for input.
Frustrated volunteer who has spent too many hours on this!!!

Use MPEG Streamclip to convert them to DV. In the case of the FLV file, this requires installing Perian.

Need to convert .m4v video to be editable in iMovie '09. Driving me insane!

I am new to Macs as a whole, and have only owned my MacBook Pro for a month, now. I am skilled in iMovie '06, however, as it was a program I used at school for three years. I made some videos for my media class using iMovie '06 that I then exported to iDVD and burned. The original videos/files are at school. All I have are the DVDs. I'd like to put these videos online. I know how to use HandBrake to rip the video file off the DVD. For videos ten minutes or less, I've been able to use the .m4v file to upload to YouTube. However, I have three videos that clock in around 17 minutes, which YouTube rejects. All I want to do is open the files in iMovie and cut them in half. I know where I want to cut, and I don't want to do any editing of any kind.
iMovie won't open .m4v files, however. So I don't know what to do. What program should I use to convert the .m4v video file to a format iMovie will open and allow me to splice the video?
Is HandBrake a program for that and I'm just using it wrong?
Or do I have to choose a whole 'nother program to rip the video file off the DVD.
In short: these are my works, I want to know what FREE program to use to rip them from the DVD and be able to open them in iMovie '09 to cut them in half, or, which program to use to convert .m4v into a format readable by iMovie '09.
Please tell me in idiot's terms. I'm not that proficient with video editing or computers, so I need it laid out clear and simple.
Thanks!

an m4v file can be renamed to mov!!
First try that.. if you can play it your done. if you can not download perian.
If perian can't.. then you can buy quicktime pro.
I own quicktime pro and bough perian to support the video that quicktime pro didn't. When I convert avchd video from my camcorder on my G5 to something editable in imovie I use ffmpeg and also handbrake. handbrake created m4v files.
All I do is rename them and Imovie can read them in.

When converting analog video to digital to my macbook the audio desyncs halfway through. Any ideas?

I am trying to convert Analog video to digital to my Macbook for work, and every time I run it through my converter the audio De-syncs about halfway into the video. Does anyone know how to go about fixing this issue or have had similar issues to this? I have no issues when converting to my PC, but only my Mac. Thanks!

Hi Rick,
I am extracting the material from the dvd directly using handbrake. The file that handbrake creates lands on the desktop. I then ammend the end of the filename from mp4 to m4v. Following this I click and drag the file onto the itunes icon in the dock. I can then download it to the ipod no problem. The dropouts occur no matter where I play the file. In other words, on the desktop (with QT), in the itunes library and on the pod.
I went back and looked at all the dvd's that are giving me this trouble. The culprit seems to be that the audio signal is in LPCM (linear pulse code modulation). Just for the **** of it, I tried to rip one track using handbrake changing the sampling rate of the audio to 48,000 Hz which I believe is what LPCM uses (previously I had set it at 41,000 Hz in handbrake). But no go, still has dropouts. One of these problem dvd's has a second audio option in AC3 (2ch). As a test, I ripped one song using that. Dropouts are gone. However, the audio is a director's commentary (on the music video he shot) with the music in the background, so it's not what I want.
Is there any way to convert LPCM to AC3? Or any other way to fix this dropout problem.
Thanks,
Pete

What is better when converting analog video for FCE, Canopus100/110/300/or5

All,
What is better when converting analog video for FCE, Canopus100/110/300/or500? I have a new MACPRO with FCE HD and I wanted to convert some of my older video that was recorded on a HI8 Camcorder... Thanks.

I have the ADVC-100 (older model) and ADVC-110. They are identical except that the ADVC-110 does not come with an AC power adapter. Currently sells for about $220USD. If all you need to do is convert from HI8 tapes, the ADVC100/110 will do the job quite nicely.
The ADVC300 adds some enhancements for video signal cleanup, but at a higher price. Currently sells for about $450USD. The ADVC500 is overkill for home use.

No Audio When Converting Videos For iPod

whenever i convert video files for my ipod they do not have audio. i have tried several programs, and none work. i have read other discussions about this, and found that MPEG Streamclip worked for other people, however whenever i try to convert using this program, it says "Error: Can't Prepare The Movie" Can anyone tell my why i can't convert these videos? i cannot figure it out. thanks alot.

I am not sure what you mean when you ask what the "compression formats" are.The compression formet refers the manner in which the media was encoded and, by extension, how the media must be decoded. I.e., it determines which codec (encoder/decoder or compressor/decompressor) is to be used with the media file.
If you can tell me where to find those i could tell you what they are. I can, however, play the video in itunes, quicktime, and MPEG Streamclip.Simnce the files are playable in QT, the most common place to look for codec information is in the "Show Movie Info" window following the "Format:" entry. E.g., it might say:
Format: MPEG2 muxed, 640 x 480orFormat: Apple MPEG4 Decompressor, 320 x 240, millions
AAC, Stereo, 48,000 kHz
i also am not sure if there is audio in the source file.Do you hear any audio when the original file is played? If not and there is no audio track (or "muxed") information, then there may not be any sound for you to convert in the first place.
how do i find out if it is muxed?If it is "muxed," the format entry we say so. In this case blocks of audio data and blockes of video data are interspersed in a single data stream (track). This is the normal way MPEG-1 and MPEG-2 audio/video data is synchronized. In addition, these formats commonly lose their audio content when converted using QT Pro, iTunes, iMovie, FCE, FCP, or other QT based "frame-to-frame" synchronized workflow. (In the case of MPEG-2 in MPEG Streamclip or QT, the QT MPEG-2 component must also be installed in order to convert the video data alone.)
most of my videos that won't convert for an ipod are downloaded from the internet. how can i find out if they are corrupted or incomplete?Internet files should always be considered suspect -- especially if they come from a peer-to-peer source. Messages that indicated QT cannot open an otherwise fully compatible QT format is often the best indication that there is a corruption problem or that the files were improperly closed at one point or another.
most of my videos that won't convert for an ipod are downloaded from the internet. how can i find out if they are corrupted or incomplete?Normally ypu would post them to a web site or FTP storage area and post the URL. If files were downloadedd from a particular web site (e.g., a QT movie trailer), simply post the URL for the particular web page.
