20 minute video and 2 hours of songs!

Does anyone have a suggestion as to how I should import 30 songs into my 20 minute iMovie?
I want to take small music clips from 30 songs and spread them over a picture slide show that lasts 20 minutes, like a music medley. What is the best way to do this? Should I import each song individually, trim it where I want it to start and end and then import the next song and repeat the process until all 30 songs are imported? Or is there a faster way to have iMovie automatically import 30 second clips? I think I know the answer is going to be the one by one method, but I'm just curious if there is a better solution.
Thanks in advance!

Hello:
Well, I just did the same thing. First time burning (disk image file) a iMovie with iDvd. When I finished burning the 2 hour iMovie project with iDVD I ended up with 7.2GB of video. My iMovie project was made up of two 1 hour videos. As I looked into the problem of the extra video, I found that I had two copies of one of my 1 hour videos and 1 copy of the other...or three videos. Consequently, I ended up with 7.2GB of encoded video instead of the expected 4.7GB (or 4.4, may vary). I deleted one of the extra copies of the one, 1 hour video that was duplicated and then I was able to fit the remaining two, 1 hour videos on one single-side DVD. Hope that helps! Merry Christmas, Cheers.

Best way to upload a large 25 minute video and where to?

best way to upload a large 25 minute video and where to?

Just a couple minutes surfing - YouTube only allows 15 minute videos from general users -- to upload larger apparently you have to be a trusted long time source. There is also a restriction on the file size.
YouTubes help section should give you all the details.
I don't watch online videos - so I just used a query in ASK.Com to get some quick tips.

I took a 6 minute video and it's too grainy. Is there any way at all to reduce the grain? Or am I out of luck?

Yes, you have lots of alternatives.
1. Got to somewhere like Google docs and create a comment and feedback form, that can be inserted onto your site via the html snippet. You can also take a look at http://www.jotform.com. Whenever someone completes the form, you will be e-mailed with all the info.
2. Use a comment system like http://www.intensedebate.com. Very good and the comments will be displayed on your site and you will be e-mailed when someone comments and you are able to accept it or reject it in this way.
3. Go and create a blog elsewhere, like http://wordpress.com or if you have hosting, then try http://wordpress.org. You can load this on your server with no problem and then create comments here, so in your iWeb site you either create a link to your blog or you can display your blog as an iframe in your iWeb site using iframe code.
4. As far as hit counters go - there are many. Just do a Google search for hit counters - http://www.hitcounterexpert.com and there are hundreds more.
Perhaps Apple keep blog comments and hit counter as MobileMe only to encourage people to use MobileMe rather than external servers. However, we can only speculate on that!

3 minutes video need 6 hours Rendering...

Today i started to render a video clip which have at least 20 videos with green screen keygen and a lot of effects like smoke, color correction etc. The video is 3 minutes and to render it i need 6 hours... Is this normal, i have to change some settings or i need to upgrade my computer? My computer is Intel Core i3, Graphic Card: GT440, 8GB Ram.

Yeah I've had projects where sections have taken that long per frame especially if there's tons of lights and 3D layers. If you're running AE CS5 there's a useful script for background rendering that gives you the time taken per frame so you can have a better estimate of the full render time. Check it out. http://www.andrewandoru.com/2010/03/17/labs-aerender/ It's just a droplet so you don't even have to open AE and that might help speed up the full render time.

One chapter for video and another for images on same DVD?

Hello,
I don't yet have a Mac, but am very close to buying a MacBook. I do have a question about iDvd. Is it possible to create a theme or template or to even do this. I want to on a regular basis have a short 5-7 tops 10 minute video and 100-200 pictures. I'd like it so the user has the option to click one chapter and watch the video. Click the other and view the images with an option to browse the disc and save the images for uploading to their target of choice such as FB. Is this possible with iDvd?
Thanks,
BK

Hello and Welcome to the discussions!
Congratulations on being an 'almost' Mac purchaser!
Yes, you can do what you want in iDVD.
You will have theme templates that come with iDVD to use to make a nice theme for your projects.
You will have the options to have the videos play individually by placing them on the menu one at a time, or to put them in iDVD the way you place a slideshow and have them play consecutively. Here is a link to a visual from Old Toad showing just that. Remember to look at this again when you get to this point:
http://homepage.mac.com/toad.hall/.Pictures/Forum/iDVD8movieSS.png
Another option for videos is to put them all into one iMovie and make chapters for each video. However, the chapters will not appear on the main menu, but in a separate submenu.
You can then put the photos in iDVD as their own separate slideshow.
When your DVD is viewed, the options will be to select to play the video slideshow or play the photo slideshow. You can rename these titles whatever you wish.
If you make an iMovie, the options for it will be 'Play Movie' and 'Scene Selection' ( to link to the submenu with the iMovie chapter choices) and the same photo slideshow.
In additiion, you can utilize the DVD-ROM option to have the photos and videos available for downloading to computer. This option will not be seen when the DVD disk is viewed on a set-top DVD player. iDVD's Help File says:
+In iDVD, you can easily make it possible for viewers to download the photos and movies that appear in your slideshows. This is a nice feature for viewers who may, for example, want to print the photos for permanent display.+
+The photos and movies are added to the DVD-ROM portion of your DVD, and viewers can access them when they insert the DVD into the drive on a computer. (The files are not accessible from a TV.)+
Get the MacBook! Good luck with your projects. Take the time to do all the tutorials Apple offers for its iLife applications. Spend time here in the discussions for the apps you are using. Utilize the Search function to see if someone else has asked and received answers to a problem similar to yours. You will learn a lot and find answers that even the Apple Genius bar people do not have!

Export QT slideshow and only the first song plays.

I did not have this problem with the previous version. All songs are from a playlist and are not purchased on iTunes. The slide show plays fine in iPhoto and then when exported only the first song plays in the QT version and after it silence. Can anyone help with this?

Hi Dave,
This seems to be a new bug introduced after one of the updates.
Only one song exporting with Slideshows
Right now, this seems to be a know problem/bug. There have been some work-arounds. Don't know if the problem is with iPhoto, Quicktime or a combo of both.
-From Bob Worthington: re-ripping the cuts I wanted as background music for the DVD as a single cut in iTunes. I then made a playlist containing the one extended cut of music.
-Old Toad: share to Quicktime from iPhoto and then import the resulting movie into iMovie you can extract and delete the audio from the video and add the two songs to the video and save.
Quicktime Pro-open the movie and bring up the Movie Properties menu window. In the top window select the audio track and delete it.
If you want more than one song you'll have to join them together with iMovie or some other application. Then open that joined file with QT Player. Then do a select all and copy. Now go to the QT window of the movie and select the Edit->Add to Movie menu option. You don't want to scale it because it will change the play speed of the audio unless it's time is exactly the same as the movie.
You could go the other way, open the movie, select all and copy, and then past with scaling to the audio. That will change the speed of the movie and transitions to fit the audio track. In this case the resulting video file will have the name of the audio track file that you started with.
You may have to play with it a bit to get exactly what you want. Be sure to work with copies of all the media files for the project.
-Peter Burtwistle: I opened the Qt movie that iPhoto makes when you export to iDVD and removed the sound track.
Then made a new soundtrack by opening all three songs in QT, then cutting and pasting them together.
Finally use QT Pro's 'Add to Movie" option to add the soundtrack to the original movie.
This worked well and was fast to do too.
-Joe Lombardo: I ended up having to extend the songs by 20 seconds so I brought them all into GarageBand and made some edits. Then I exported them all to iTunes as a single track and used that for the slideshow

Photo Booth froze while recording video and did not save

Hi-
I was in the middle of recording a video on Photo Booth for a school project. Before you go any further- I now know that I should have used iMovie or Quick Time to record, but I was having the same problem with freezing/lagging video. So I decided on using Photo Booth because it is what I am most familiar with.
It was about a 20 minute video and I noticed that the picture would freeze every so often, even right after I began recording, so I know it is not a size issue. I also do not have anything in my Photo Booth tray or library, so I know I have enough space.
Here's my issue: I pressed stop when I was done recording. But I got the infamous "spinning wheel of death." It didn't go away, even after 10 minutes so I force quit. I have located the recording in Finder. It says the name of the video, and the size, but the thumbnail is just the default QuickTime icon, not an icon.
How do I recover this? It's extremely important that I do. Hoping EZ Jim will respond! Thank you so much in advance.
I am using a MacBook Pro 13" from 2011.

Yes, you should have. Do so in future recordings that are important or longer than a couple of minutes.
l_kleiman wrote:... the picture would freeze every so often,...
Because your problem is the same with all three video recording applications, we can rule out application software as the cause of your trouble. Here are some possible causes and what you can do to try to solve them:
(1) Video recording is processor intensive. If you are also running many more apps than only the video app while you are recording, your Mac's processor may be working near its limit.
Restarting your Mac before recording video ensures you will not have interference from multiple user accounts or widgets (unless they are included as  > System Preferences... > Account > Login iTems.
Remember that things like widgets and automatic checks for Mail, TimeMachine backups, iCal alarms, etc., and other background activities also add to your Mac's workload. The actions for the apps mentioned (and for most other such apps) can be disabled in "Preferences" for the apps that control them.
Disconnect all peripherals while you are recording video, and make your record monitoring window as small as possible. These suggestions help reduce processor power requirements while recording.
(2) Installing the maximum amount of RAM your MBP can use may help you. Your retailer can help you check what you have and install more if necessary.
(3) Alternatively, the cause of your symptoms May lie in your system software.
Consider the information in OS X Mountain Lion: If your Mac runs slowly. It applies equally to your OS X Lion system.
If you are not already running the latest Lion version, apply the OS X Lion Update 10.7.5 (Client Combo) update.)
l_kleiman wrote:... the picture would freeze ... even right after I began recording, so I know it is not a size issue. I also do not have anything in my Photo Booth tray or library, so I know I have enough space...
Neither freeze timing nor Photo Booth tray or library space tells you whether your startup disk has enough free ("Available") space for best operation.
Use your Mac's Finder > File > Get Info menu command to check available free space. Be sure you have LOTS of room (I keep 75% of my disk space free when recording video) on your MBP's disk.
Capture your movie clips on your MBP's startup disk rather than on an external drive which is almost certainly slower.
l_kleiman wrote:... when I was done recording... I force quit... but the thumbnail is ...not an icon. How do I recover this?...
If something here doesn't work, http://bit.ly/1An6zjD, your only remedy it to record the video again.
l_kleiman wrote:... Thank you so much in advance...
You're welcome. If you need to post back for other suggestions, please tell us the following:
0. What Lion version number you are using? You can find the version with the  > About This Mac menu command.
1. Are you recording your video subjects in bright lighting?
2. Did your Mac ever record video properly? If so, what happened immediately before the problem first appeared? (new software, hardware, etc?)
3. How much free space is "Available" on your startup disk?
4. How much RAM is installed in your Mac?
5. If you added RAM, what brand (Apple, Crucial, Other World, etc.) did you install?
6. Have you used Apple Hardware Test to verify your RAM is all working? (If you don't know how to use AHT, see your MBP's User Guide.)
We will offer more specific suggestions based on the details in your response.

I want to buy a Ipod Nano 16gb and it says it holds up to 4,000 songs, and 16 hours of video but on my Itunes I have 2,593 songs and it says I have 19.88 gb. How is this possible?

I want to buy a Ipod Nano 16gb that says it holds up to 4,000 songs, 16 hours of video, and 14,000 pictures. On my Itunes Library, I have 2,593 songs and it says I have 19.88 gb just of songs. How is this possible? If I buy the Nano, will I not be able to have all my songs on the ipod? The music is my first and only prioarity. I want to be able to have up to at least 3,000 songs, even if that means not having video or pictures. Can someone please help me?

Daniella,
The estimated song capacities, such as 4000 songs in 16 GB, are based on 4 minute songs of 4 MB each, which is what you get at 128 encoding.
Most of us nowadays use well above 128. (For example, the iTunes Store and Amazon MP3 both sell songs only in 256.)
However, you can still make more songs fit! When you sync your iPod, use the option to "convert higher bit rate songs," as pictured. Choose 128. This fits more on the iPod, but does not change the songs in your library.

I made a video of our summer vacation on imovie. It's over an hour long. When I try to share it, the audio syncs incorrectly at about the 15 minute mark and is off for the rest of the movie. Is there a way to fix this? I think I have imovie 09.

My battery life at a full 100% charge is about 2 hours 22 minutes (backlight and key lights at lowest level). Should I go complaining to Apple or do I just need different software? I've only had my mac book since August 2011. The battery dies in 2 to 3 hours with some web surfing (little video play) and photo editing etc. I really don't feel like taking my computer all the way to the apple store to wait there for 5 hours to hear that I need to call someone blah blah blah. Any advice? (BTW Safari hasn't been working since I last updated my mac, WHYYYY?)

My ipod 4th gen gets wiped clean of music anytime I sync. it then only redownloads some of the music in the library and wont upload missing songs. They show on the ipod grayed out. How do I get this to stop? re-uploading takes 4 hours.

my ipod 4th gen gets wiped clean of music anytime I sync. it then only redownloads some of the music in the library and wont upload missing songs. They show on the ipod grayed out. How do I get this to stop? re-uploading takes 4 hours and is never completed. I only get some of the 6000+ songs I have. This started when I updated to IOS5 i think.

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Unsync all music and resync
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

Adobe media encoder cs4 extremely slow (5 hours for 8 minute video)

I know you have seen slowencoder issues before, but I have tried everything I can to fix this and need help.
Lets start with basic info:
8 minute vieo takes over 5 hours to generate final video.
Observations: 3 processes are running most of the time, with over 2GB memory left over and available, I/O is low, CPU is at 90 to 100 percent for hours during encode.
PProHeadless.exe 48-50%
Adobe Media Encoder.exe 30-40%
ImporterProcessServer.exe can be from 30-50% CPU but not constant.
I live in San Jose, and am willng to take this laptop to your Office to debug it personally. (FYI)
CS4: 4.2.1 with all updates applied
ALL Encoder OUTPUT is set to a 128GB Solid State Drive drive so there are very low delays on I/O: SAMSUNG MMCRE28G8MXP-0VB.
This setting is in the general disk setting, media cache files, etc. All I/O is to this drive, except the project file which for some reason gets copied to temp on c drive... (no I/O there however)

Harm:
Cost: I got 2 of the Kingston 128GB SSD V100 from Costco at around 165 each (after rebate). They are on sale, and there is a 40 rebate each drive (up to 2) rebate.
Yes you are right, I did not expect improvements for Premiere pro, but I installed because I use this configuration on other systems for 1 year... and here are the results...
ALL of the data on this sytem is backed up on my 8TB server. I can loose anything here and get it back. I see the OS as just another replaceable disk.
I used the system motherboard hardware Raid 0 for C: AND... I put 3 of the 1TB drives on the motherboard hardware raid as a data disk. Data disk is ALL scratch disk, for the encoded files and cache. Source files are on the other software striped drive. Of course I loaded a fresh install and moved to Windows 7 64bit...
Overall observations:
     As you predicted encode times did not improve much, It was 15 minutes vs 17 minutes at 2.66 clock. I am unimpressed with the Intel Motherboard Raid 0. I saw the SSD was blazingly fast, but I think moving these to a RAID controll they will go faster. Each SSD drive in 200+MB/S rated.
What I do see is dramatic improvements in load times of the OS and ANY program you run. The pagefile was moved back to this raid 0 drive after benchmarks. RUNNING ANY application (adobe, microsoft, ALL are blazingly fast to load).
Example: Premiere pro CS5 from click on launch to CS5 prompting for a project name was 5.5 seconds... I would not take this out of the system for any money saved. It is amazing. Almost as good as the nvidia quadro FX 4000 Display card and the CS5.
My NEXT investment IS the RAID controller, and 6 of the Hitachi deskstar 3TB 6GPS Sata III drives to replace all my current drives. Next month or so for that.
I want components that I can keep in the system when I do replace the motherboard and CPU. I will tune this system as I have funds, and ask for help when this system no longer is viable and replace the motherboard. I will ask for the fastest motherboard and CPU combo that you can buy, and keep my 730X(treme) case and add a water cooler. As drives add 1TB a year in size, they seem to meet myneeds and I replace the old every 2 years to get the space I need.
As always your comments are spot on and I appreciate your reviews.

Over 2 Hours To Export a 10 Minute Video Even With Other Editing Software

Hi, I am having a problem with EVERY edititing software I have used. Recently that is. Anyway heres the deal. I got a new computer and it has been an amazing PC. It has a sticker on the front that says HD video editing as in it supports it. Which it very well does. Within the last couple weeks, I have had problems with editing my videos. I usually render 5 to 15 minute videos since I do YouTube. That would take between 10 and 30 minutes. Now, these videos are taking almost 3 hours give or take just to finish rendering. I have no idea why. It all started when I changed the settings in MSCONFIG to have maximum memory. I restarted my PC and got a hardware error. So I went into safe mode and undid what I had done. I also took out the RAM, and CPU to see if that was a problem. I then put it back in of course. I don't know every knick and cranny of Adobe premiere so please be very descriptive. I also remember that I was having trouble with the fan of my CPU. I couldn't get it to lock back down on the mother board. Could that be a problem? It isn't lock in on all 4 parts. Only 2 I believe. Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Dumb me haha, I didn't even think of puttin in system info. I believe thats what you were asking? I am using Adobe Premiere CS6. I don't know what version though.
My system specs are as followed
Pentium Dual Core CPU E6300 @2.80GHz 2.79GHz
RAM: 4.00 GB
64 Bit Windows 7
Nivida Geforce 210 Video Card
The video files I render are M2TS and they are recorded with the Haupaugge Colosus @ 1280x720 in Arcsoft Total Media ShowBiz.
I render them with adobe premiere in H.264 in 1280x720 @29.97 FPS with a Bit rate of 2MB/s

I've added songs and vedios to iTunes in my computer then I synchronise it with my iPad the problem came to the video that I couldn't show the videos and the screen became black

I've added songs and vedios to iTunes in my computer then I synchronise it with my Ipad3 ..... For the songs it was OK but for the vedios I got a message that some format are not supported then the screen became black with no video or sound ....how can I get back the vedios...I'm afraid to make reset to the iPad otherwise I'll loose all the applications and media.. Any ideas please .... Thanks

First of all - depending upon how you define resetting the iPad - you will not lose anything. If you erase all contents and settings - then you will lose everything. Don't do that!
If the videos are not in the correct format - launch iTunes on your computer. Click on one of the videos in your iTunes library in order to select it. Then go to Advanced>Create iPad or Apple TV version and see if the video will convert. Do the same for the other videos and then select those to sync again with the iPad.
To get the videos app working again, first quit it completely and restart the iPad.
Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
If the videos app still doesn't work, try this.
Swipe to the right from your first home screen to get to the iPad Spotlight search. Type in the name of any of your movies in the field at the top. when the movie appears in the search - tap on it and it should hopefully start to play. Let it play for a minute or so - hit done - go back to videos app and see if all is OK.

Best Quicktime resolution and codec for downloading a 1hr, 15 minute video

Hello All;
I have to create a video that can be downloaded and played via. the web. Looking at most downloadable content, I see Quicktime is used most often.
My original fcp project is 1920 X 1080, 1 hr, and 15 minutes long.
Would would you say is the best resolution and codec to use for the highest quality at the lowest total file size ? What do you use that offers you the results you like ?
I've heard that MPEG 4 is used for web delivery and I've tried this at 720 X 480 but some of the images in the video like a american flag show a strange shimmering effect. I'm not sure what causes that as most of the video looks fine, only a few objects in the scene at various times.
I have also heard H.264 is good for web delivery and am trying that now but it will take 15 more hours to finish the export. Not sure if I'll see the strange shimmering effect as I did with MPEG 4. Hope not but if I do, is there anything I can do to eliminate this ?
Thank you very much.
Tim

An hour and 15 minute video is going to be huge. The smallest file size that's going to be adequate quality is probably in 800MB or better range. That's a big download for most punters.

20 minute video and 2 hours of songs!
