Adding a video file to webpage

Hi all, me again, the not a beginner but not an expert (yet!). Another quick question:
I am working with a client that wants a video on his homepage. He is editing an existing video and will provide me the final file. I need to know:
1. what format to ask for (.mov? .swf? other?) {I am a beginner level in Flash.}
2. how I will add to the webpage (is is a simple matter of adding file just like I would add an image?)
3. what size/dimensions to ask for (here is the video that client is editing with his info: http://us.repstars.com/success/products, I cannot tell what the exact dimensions are/I have left about 475 x 290 in me page layout. Here is my rough layout where I will insert new video: http://hungry4web.net/zac_test/)
I am working in CS3 Dreamweaver, Mac.
Thanks!

1. what format to ask for (.mov? .swf? other?) {I am a beginner level in Flash.}
Doesn't really matter - Flash can manage all of them.
2. how I will add to the webpage (is is a simple matter of adding file just like I would add an image?)
INSERT | Media > SWF / Flash Video
3. what size/dimensions to ask for (here is the video that client is editing with his info: http://us.repstars.com/success/products, I cannot tell what the exact dimensions are/I have left about 475 x 290 in me page layout. Here is my rough layout where I will insert new video: http://hungry4web.net/zac_test/)
Ask for something that will fit the available space.

Problem adding large video files to library

When I try to add large video files to my library. It doesn't work. No error message or anything. It just doesn't happen. The file I'm trying right now is 2.65 GB. I've had no problem with video files around 400 MB.

What format is the video in? iTunes is unfortunately silent when you try to add a video or song that Quicktime can't decode.

Can we generate large video file by adding small video files one after othe

?

Yes. There's even a sample program that'll do it for you.

ONLY video files not already in library wont transfer to itunes library

I've found NO help from the apple website dealing with this problem, video only importing problems don't even come up in the help sections.
heres an example, i just bought a new cd, i can easily transfer the files from the drive to my library, or from a folder on my computer to the itunes library.
BUT if i have recieved a new video file, in any format, i click - file, add file to library, (file name), open. then- absolutely nothing happens. If i have a folder of videos to transfer, i go to - file, add folder to library, (folder name), open. Sometimes a breif glimpse of the "processing filename" apears in a box on the screen, IF I'M LUCKY. But less than two seconds later, the box dissapears and itunes stops all attempts to put my new video files into its library.
I've tried to remedy this by the following-
I've tried to 'repair' itunes
i've tried to uninstall and reinstall itunes
i've tried to convert the files into .mpv, the file all ready to go for putting it on an ipod
i've tried to restart, reboot, completely shut and unplug computer
i've installed avg a spyware detector and searched for viruses, just in case a virus is effecting itunes or the files i want to put in it-no go
i've tried deleting my library and putting in only the video files, just in case it was full... (i doubt it i had 10 gigs of memory in itunes it should hold more)
I've tried deleting my library, then moving the files in the correcct format to the itunes library folder that has the files backed up to trick it that it was already there before- that didn't work.
I've just gotten a 30g new ipod with video and have transfered over 50 video files to it, there were no problems before, but there are now- its very frusterating especially because I WANT TO WATCH MY TV SHOW ON MY IPOD IN MY ROOM UNDER SOFT FUZZY COVERS! ='S
Has anyone else had this problem? and if so... are there steps to fix it, and WHY does it do this? (for any reason other than hating me)

I myself have came across this problem. I have found that for some reason simply clicking on other parts of iTunes and then adding the video file it eventually adds (most times).
I have also found that when attempting to convert some files to mpeg-4, the same thing has also happened. I have put it down to a bad corrupt file that iTunes does not like.
It could be that the files we are trying to add and/or convert to iTunes are damaged files even if they can be played using other media players.

Video files in Portal

Hi Friends,
Can anyone please tell me what could be the PROS and CONS of adding a video file in the portal.
Have anyone tried this in their portal ?
Points will be awarded.
Thanks in advance,
Cheers,
Sathya

Hi Sathya,
I dont understand what you meant to say by pros and cons. what could be the pros and cons of bringing in a audio or video file from outside. Any file that is supported by Portal, can be included in teh portal. For example, SDN has lot of audio and video files for the SDNers.

Itunes 12 won't add video file

I've been using iTunes as my primary video player/manager for years now (and obviously to sync files into my iPhone/iPad).
Today for my surprise after going to File>Add to Library... to add another set of video files, NOTHING happened.
The videos are always added to the Home Videos section so I can re-arrange them to Movies/TVShows/Music Videos, etc. but this time they are NOT showing up there.
Strangely enough, the files do get copied to the Home Videos folder, within iTunes Media (I let iTunes auto organize folders/files), but yet they do not show up anywhere in the library.
It's important to inform that:
As I said, yes I checked into the Home Videos section and it's not there.
Yes, I tried adding while running iTunes under safe mode - no glory.
Yes, I restarted the computer and did it again - nothing.
Yes, I looked into the recent added list, both under Movies and Music, and they are not there.
Yes, the files do have the right codec/format, as they are .mp4, they all run on Quicktime, and I compare the codec format against other video files that are already in the library and they share the exact same features.
I'm currently running iTunes 12.1.0.50, iOS Yosemite 10.10.2, on a MacBook, and the whole library is running out of a 4TB external HDD (WD My Book).
HELP PLEASE, starting to fret here as I exhausted all troubleshooting options that I know!
Thanks in advance...

Nevermind. When I added another video file the ones that were not showing up magically appeared together with the one I just added.
Go figure...
I guess it could've been some sort of corrupt issue with the iTunes Library.itl file...
Now I'm golden

All of a sudden (video) files added to my iTunes library after a certain date aren't playable on other devices.

hello!
All of a sudden I have a weird issue with playing video-files added to my iTunes library after a specific date.
This is the situation so far:
I encode the video for iTunes with the same settings for the last 3 years. I know these vids play on all my devices. AppleTV & iPad. All of a sudden videos added to my library after the 8th of september aren't playable on my AppleTV and iPad. I can play them directly in iTunes and by accessing them directly via the finder and quicktime.
The following errors occur:
When I pull the video from iTunes on my AppleTV.. the video simply doesn't play.
When I pull the video from iTunes on my iPad I get a message that the file can't be found.
When I push the video from iTunes to the AppleTV using airplay I get a message that there has occured an error while connecting to the AirPlay-device "Apple TV". The necesary file could not be found. In addition when the AppleTV is switched off it doesn't turn on doing this, suggesting that there is something missing on my mac itself.
All the above errors aren't popping up when I choose a video that has been put in my library before the 9th of september. Then everything works as expected.
This is what I tried:
Turning off and on home sharing on all devices including the mac.
Logging in wiht a different apple ID though using the same ID as before.
I created a new iTunes library and populated with a video that was added after the 8th of september and one that was added before the 9th of september. Surprisingly the older one played and not the newer one.. while they both used the same encoding settings. The new library was locally on my mac as my original library is on a NAS.
I encode my videos with Quicktime 7 Pro using the following settings:
H.264 (current frame rate, key-frames:automatic, re-order frames, automatic bitsize)
Medium Quality
Multi-pass
current resolution (which is always 1280 X 720)
AAC sound
44.100 kHz
128kbps
I'm using the Mountain lion 10.8.2 and iTunes 10.7 Mountain lion got updated a few days after 19th of september and iTunes i think as well. Both versions were released after this issue seemed to pop up.
I also have two video-files encoded on the same day with the same settings that dragged into the iTunes library on the 9th of september. One works.. the other doesn't.
So I wonder if there is somebody out there that can tell me what might have happened here and how I could fix this issue.
Thank you in advance.

Hi Seraphiel07.
I have a very similar issue. Hardware involved:
Apple MacMini (Mid 2011) - OSX 10.8.2. iTunes 10.7. Home Sharing enabled.
Apple TV (3rd Generation). Home Sharing (access) enabled.
Apple MacBook Pro (15" Mid-2009). OSX 10.8.2. iTunes 10.7. Home Sharing enabled.
Apple iPad 2 (Wifi only). iOS 6
Apple iPhone 4S. iOS 6
All connected through:
Apple Time Capsule 8.0211n (4th Gen)
I have an iTunes library on the MacBook Pro, shared over "Home Sharing" and another (duplicate content, different library name) iTunes library on my MacMini, which is also accessed through the Apple TV.
All software is current (as of Sep 26th).
All movies are iTunes purchases. 80 in total.
All files are purchased (and home shared) under one account.
My last two iTunes purchases both HD movies on 09/17/2012 and 09/05/2012 refuse to appear on any device accessing either of the two Libraries over Home Sharing. It should be noted that every other movie (the other 78) all show up and play correctly. I therefore know it is not an issue with connectivity, otherwise I would see zero movies available.
I have:
1. Removed all content from each Library and re-added
2. Upgraded the OS on the MacMini 10.8.2
3. Tested viewing the two missing movies on other Apple devices and no luck.
4. Turn home sharing on and off within iTunes and also on each device.
It would appear to me that the issue is with the files themselves, rather than the devices as different devices and different versions have been tested.
All comments welcome.

I would like to see a built-in way of adding audio and video files.

As it is, you have to rely on third-party solutions for adding mp3 audio files and video to Muse sites. Thanks

Hi,
I tried to reproduce what you were getting by building a simple VI but I havent had much luck (I have attached the VI).
Could you post your code so that I can take a look at it?

Trouble adding video files to library

I am unable to add most video files to my video library, the only files i have been able to add so far are quicktime files, also, when i try to open other video files into quicktime it says:
Error -2048: The file is not a movie file
Im not sure if this has anything to do with adding files to itunes library, just thought id mention it. I've tried to convert some of these files to quicktime with Xilisoft Video Converter 3 but when i do it, it says that it failed. If anyone knows of any good reliable video converters (if this would solve my problem) that would be cool. Also, this doesnt have anything to so with my problem, but i cant find any movies or tv shows in my Itunes store, and yes i do have the latest itunes version: 7, i can buy games, music videos, and pixar short films but i cannot find tv shows or movies.
any help would be greatly appreciated.

I cannot find the video that I added to the iPad. I looked in iPhoto and the camera roll. Any ideas? (BTW, this is a video which I previously had on the iPad but deleted and now I want to add it back.)

Thanks for your reply. I looked in the Video app but it is empty. When I connect the iPad to iTunes on the iMac and look in Apps > File Sharing > iPhoto, the video that I added is in iPhoto on the iPad but I cannot actually find the video in iPhoto on the iPad.

Can video files be added to a slide show in Elements 5 or 10?

Can video files be added to a slide show in Elements 5 or 10?

I would recommend PSE11/PRE11 if you want to use them on an integrated basis. Only the current product is supported by Adobe. Or you could get PRE10 if you are not concerned about support.
But be aware that one version will not integrate with another. They will work as stand alone apps but you would loose some flexibility. For example I start in the Slideshow editor in PSE, add my photos and transitions and then click Output >> Edit with PRE. The slideshow gets sent automatically as a clip and I can do further editing, add video, add music and narration etc.

Adding Lyrics to Music Video Files

It appears that iTunes won't allow lyrics to be added to the Lyrics tab if a file is classified as Music Video under Get Info > Options > Media Kind. All my music video files are flv files. Is there anywhere to circumvent this?

Check out LOWER THIRDS...
(In the manual... or under the A thingie bottom right side of the Viewer window - pulldown to TEXT - Lower Thirds)
Good luck,

How to see the video file added in iTune in computer to the iPad?

I want to transfer a video file from my Window based PC to the iPad2.

Hi Kandaraj,
you have to transport the KM Content separatly.
The procedure is documented here:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/46/7649426fd759dbe10000000a1553f6/frameset.htm
When you automated the transport with CTS+ it might be possible to synchronize the transport of the PCD-Objects and the KM-Content (I have not tried this myself actually ...)
Best regards,
Stefan Brauneis

Elements 9 Freezes on Adding Canon DSLR video files

I just purchased Premiere Elements 9 to edit my Canon T2i video files. When I try to add the video files by going to Get Media - From File, the progress bar pops up and goes away quickly like it is finished processing the addition to my organizer, but the video file never shows up. If I go to Filter By and select the project I am working on to only show the project files, I get the Windows thinking icon and that is all the further I can get Elements to go. After 1/2 hour or so I close elements. When I open the project file back up, the video I tried to add earlier shows up. I don't think I should have to kill the program and reopen it everytime I try to add a video file to the project. What gives? My computer is a Core i5 M430 with 4gb of ram on Windows 7 Pro 64bit.

Got a response from Adobe support and this is what they suggested:
"Solution 1: Update to Premiere Elements 9.0.1 update
Do one of the following:
* Launch Adobe Premiere Elements 8 and choose Help > Updates.
* Download and install updates from the below mentioned link.
( http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4930 )
Solution 2: Update the graphic card driver.
Many video card manufacturers frequently update their software drivers. If you haven't recently updated the video card driver, contact the video card manufacturer for an updated driver, or download one from the manufacturer's website.
Solution 3: Update quick time player.
Open Quicktime player> click help menu > click update.
Solution 4: Re-create the preferences files.
Re-create the Adobe application preferences file to eliminate problems caused by a damaged preferences file. For specific instructions, search the application Help system for "restore preferences" or "re-create preferences." .
Mac Hard disk > Users > username > Library > application support > adobe.photoshop.com.plist
(please remove the adobe.photoshop.com.plist file from this location and relaunch the application and kindly make sure the application is closed before your perform this step)
Solution 5 : Install or run the Adobe application from within a new user account.
Occasionally, a user account can become corrupted and prevent the installer from accessing or creating the necessary files and folders. Create an account, log in to the new account, and then try to install or run the Adobe application. For information on creating a user account, see "Creating a new user account" in the Mac OS X Help.
Solution 6: Remove third-party plug-ins.
Applies to Acrobat, Adobe Reader, Adobe Premiere Pro, Adobe Premiere Elements, After Effects, Bridge, Fireworks, Illustrator, InDesign, Photoshop, Photoshop Elements, and Photoshop Lightroom.
Remove third-party plug-ins from the application plug-ins folder, and restart the application. If the problem recurs, move the plug-ins back to the application plug-ins folder. If the problem doesn't recur, identify conflicting plug-ins.
To identify conflicting plug-ins:
1. Move one third-party plug-in back to the application plug-ins folder.
2. Restart the application, and try to re-create the problem.
3. If the problem doesn't recur, repeat step 1. If the problem does recur, contact the developer of the plug-in that you last moved, and inquire about an update.
Solution 7. Run the application while no other applications are running.
To maximize available RAM and reduce the chance that another application conflicts with the Adobe application, quit open applications (including virus-protection utilities). Then restart the Adobe application. If applications don't quit as expected, force quit them by choosing Force Quit from the Apple menu.
Note: Don't force quit the Finder, which is the core Mac OS component.
Solution 8: Install or run the application with the Login Items disabled.
To disable nonessential extensions located in the user accounts Login Items folder, press Shift while you restart the computer. Pressing Shift disables any applications that are in the Login Items folder.
This should resolve your issue. If it does, please let us know, however in case it does not; please revert with any new information that you might want to add which will help us in resolving your issue."
Nothing helped until I installed PRE9 under a different login. I appears my install must have been bad from the start. I had originally downloaded the trial and then used the key from the DVD copy I bought to convert it to a licensed version. I'm thinking something went wrong in that whole deal, should've just reinstalled from the DVD when I got it. Oh well, all seems well now and I can finally get some editing done! It actually seems to work smoother than Vegas 9 did. Could probably use a bit more RAM though. I only have 4GB. I know PRE9 can only use 4gb, but windows 7 and background stuff uses over 1GB when the computer is idle, so 8GB might give PRE9 a bit more headroom.

Does Keynote auto compress video files that are added to a slide?

I noticed that it takes a long time for some video files to be placed onto a slide in KeyNote. I am assuming that it is crunching down the size of the file in that process. I noticed that if the file size is already small, as when open it in quick time player and export in a smaller file format, the file is rapidly taken into keynote. This is important to know so that we don't have to do the compressing in advance.

Keynote 6 converts video files to H264 files, if its an H264 file thats placed in the slide its unaltered.
