Does MPEG Streamclip do what you want? Note that AVI is a container, not a file format; the audio and video parts of it may be encoded with any codec.

How do I convert MP4 file to AVI or MOV using MacBook Pro (2010)

I am 10.6.4 new user on a new MacBook Pro. This is my first Mac computer.
I want to convert a MP4 video file to AVI or MOV file type. How would I do this on my new Mac? Documentation says I have Quicktime X, but I cannot find Quicktime X on my system. When I try to load Quicktime 7 Pro, my system says I have Quicktime X and cannot load Pro. Apple websites say Pro version will allow me to convert the MP4 files. Anyone have any experience or ideas on what I should do? How do I find Quicktime X? Will it do the conversion for me? Thanks

Use MPEG Streamclip, or open the QuickTime Player from the /Applications/Utilities/ folder, installing this software if needed.

Convert AVI to .MOV

I am trying to convert an AVI to .Mov on my mac. How do I do that for for free or cheap?
I have Quicktime Pro, Final Cut, etc...but need the tool to do the conversion to .MOV.

I installed again, and it did not work.
( BTW - I made a donation via PayPal to Perian )
I restarted again (after installation) and it does now OPEN the .avi movie I have, but it does not PLAY the movie. Only garbage appears in the QT Player window. No sound either.
For the movie, Properties says:
Video: XVID 23.97599... fps, duration 46:09.01
Audio: MPEG layer 3, duration 45:40.68

HT2729 What video formats (avi, MPEG, MOV, etc.) are "playable" on MacBook without adding some kind of converter? Any? how?

What video formats (avi, mpeg, mov, etc.) are "playable" on MacBook without any video converter? Are there any? How come quick time wont let me play a MPEG? When you google this question, al the answers make me download some converter (VLC, etc.)

What video formats (avi, mpeg, mov, etc.) are "playable" on MacBook without any video converter? Are there any?
Depends on what compressed data is in the AVI, MPEG, or MOV file container. E.g., assuming you are using the QT X v10.2 player listed in your hardware profile, a "muxed" MPEG-2/AC3 MPEG file will probably play correctly but an MPEG-2/MP2 or MPEG-2/PCM MPEG file may be problematic. In a similar manner, a Motion-JPEG/WAV AVI file probably won't play the video but play the audio while a DV audio/video AVI file will probably still play correctly.
How come quick time wont let me play a MPEG?
Agian, it depends on what you mean by an MPEG file here. A "muxed" MPEG-2/AC3 file in an MPEG, MPG, TS, or MOV file container should play correctly while the same data in a VOB file container will neither load nor play. Further, this file is not only playback compatible with the QT X v10.2 player but is now conversion compatible to H.264/AAC MOV files on my system which was a surprise to me. On the other hand, if the MPEG file contains MPEG-2 video muxed with MP2 audio (a common PC compression combination), the file will likely have audio/video sync problems and/or freeze up entirely. However, this latter file plays back correctly and without problem in QT 7 with the Apple QT MPEG-2 playback component installed. (For the moment I assume the new support capabilities, as well as, the latest audio problems here may be associated with the system audio upgrades begun in Lion and completed in Moutain Lion.)
When you google this question, al the answers make me download some converter (VLC, etc.)
QT is in the process of being totally re-written. Unfortunately, the addition of new capabilities comes at the expense of making the "new" QT structure less and less compatible with legacy compression formats and file containers and likely signals the eventual end of QT 7 and its "Pro" capabilities in favor of higher definition, more efficient compression technologies.

How to publish to video format avi , wmv , mov or mpg ?

How to publish to video format avi , wmv , mov or mpg ?

Hello there,
You can publish as MP4 from Captivate and then use any video converters to convert from MP4 to whatever format you need. But, as Lilybiri mentioned, there won't be any interactivity in the videos.
Thanks,

AVI TO MOV = blur?

Hi!
I used Qt pro 6.5.2 to convert some Avi files (1024x768 pixels) to Mov.files. the result is SO blurred! i have used the "best" settings all over... Then burned them in IDvd 5.0.1.
The Avi files looks just fine played in Qt or Vlc - not blurred.

Toggen,
AVI and MOV files are just video "Containers". The video and audio inside the container can be in many many formats/compression schemes.
So telling us you converted from AVI to MOV is kinda like telling me you put your beer in a plastic mug or a glass mug, but what I really need to know is what kind of beer it was, and how you changed the beer before moving it to the new mug......."best" settings all over doesn't tell us much.
Do "Show Movie Info" after opening the AVI and MOV in QT. That will give your the video formats/compression schemes you used.
John
PS.....Yes I do have an interest in malted barley & hop beverages......and I prefer to use glass pints

AVI to MOV? Any good compression tools?

I need to convert about 100GB of AVI with embedded Canopus Codecs to MOVs so they can be compatible with Final Cut Pro. They wont open by themselves in FCP for some reason. Anybody have advice on software that converts AVI to MOV with out loss of quality?

If it is a proprietry Canopus Codec, I think it is likely that you will need to use a Canopus software product to create a suitable mov file. If the file is a more generally available Codec we use Autodesk Cleaner for file conversion. This takes most formats, except wmv, for input and can output a number of formats and Codecs (including wmv). It is getting a bit long in the tooth now, but still works well for us.
Incidently I am currently doing wmv files on a PC with the Ulead software that came with the DVD burner. It does an OK job and since most of the source is game play footage from various computer games and is often less than perfect to begin with it is usually adequate.

AVI and MOV conversion?

I just got a new iPod Classic 80gb, and I found out that you cant sync AVI and MOV file format videos to it.
What I was wondering if there is a patch or something that allows my iPod to read AVI or MOV formats.
I'm using iSquint, but its rather slow for a 500mhz G4.
Thanks

Hello - I have a post below yours about converting avi files. So gather from your post that I need to buy quick pro, not just use what came with my new mbpro to be able to convert the files. Is this correct?

Conversion of avi to mov

Anyone know a program I can use to convert avi to mov? on deadline and I can't find anything. Thanks

Divixx Doctor will also convert and it's a free prgm to download. It also worked on some PAL avi's I had. Didn't work on all the PAL stuff, but most of it. NTSC avi should all be good.

MXF codecs & encoder for pc? MXF AVI or MOV

Hello,
I have a question about MXF codecs for PPro CS3. I have a Sony PDW-530 (2/3" professional SD camera) and I shoot on IMX50. I have a problem when I import the .MXF files in PPro CS3. PPro CS3 says, 'unsupported format or codec is missing'. When I shoot with the Sony PDW-F335L (that's a HD 1/2" camera) and import the .MXF files into PPro CS3 I have no problem with 'unsupported format or codec is missing'.
So one of my questions is: 'Is there a codec for Premiere Pro CS3 for .MXF files shoot on IMX30 / IMX40 or IMX50? And where can I found him then.
Then my other question: Mac has a MXF encoder, named 'XDCAM Transfer'. In this program you can import the .MXF files and then convert it to a .MOV file. The .MOV file you can import in Premiere Pro CS3.
Is there for PC also a MXF encoder of tranfer (to a .AVI or .MOV file?)
Hopefully you can help me!
Greetings Rob!

I believe Premiere's MXF support is limited to DVCPRO HD and XDCAM EX/HD.

Exporting HD to AVI or Mov

Hi there
We have produced a movie in HD (PAL 1440 x 1080 , 25 frame p/s) .. running CS4, all good so far!
We are needing to get it to Eurosport on a digibeta tape, in Standard Definition 720x576.
We have a local guy who can convert from either AVI or MOV (prefers from HD) to the required format for Eurosport..
However we are having issues converting to either AVI or MOV:
1/ CS4 cannot seem to convert to AVI or Mov in HD PAL 1440 x 1080.. first prob
2/ ...so we thought why not just export to AVI Standard Definition 720x576 but find it distorts the graphics, photos and text captions ... Video and audio is fine
We also tryed exporting as a MPEG2 (1440 x 1080 , 25 frame p/s) and converting to AVI via Streamclip .. created a very large file (which is ok..) but the audio quality was bad, and when playing it seems to skip a frame (not sure if this is just how it plays on my machine...??)
Most likely our settings... but after many hours google searching hasn't quite got us the answer :-)
Welcome any suggestions ..
Thanks ..
Jen

Exporting to avi or mov on a Mac

Hello. I'm just learning how to use Captivate on request from a client so this may be a bit of a noobie question. I'm using Captivate 5 on a Mac. All the tutorials I've seen on how to export captured video to .avi format has been for the Windows version of Captivate. When I go to publish the video and navigate to the Media tab, there is no useable video formats available. There's .exe .app .f4v and .f4v with a fixed frame rate. I need these videos exported to cut together in after effects, but without a video option as described in the Windows version of this software, this is making my task impossible. I can't seem to find any help for the Mac version.
If anyone can help with how to export to any sort of video file (avi, mp4, mov, whatever) on the Mac version, I'd really appreciate it!
Thanks!

These .f4v options are both in fact videos, which you can use in video player / editors directly.
If you want to convert this video to MP4, you can do it with Adobe Media Encoder which is installed free with Captivate 5. Inside the Adobe Media Encoder, you need to select H.264 as the format. The select one of the suitable preset to get MP4 output.

Let us start from the beginning.
It has been established that you have Premiere Elements 10. On what computer operating system is it running?
There has not been a File Menu/Export/Movie export opportunitity in Premiere Elements since version 7. We are not up to version 12.
For Premiere Elements 10, your export opportunities are all in Share/ including one for Computer. Under Computer there are several choices. The ones that you see are Adobe Flash Video, MPEG, and AVCHD. The others you have to scroll down to. And those choices are AVI, Windows Media, QuickTime, Image, and Audio. You do not have to use the scroll bar for this. You can click on Adobe Flash Video panel to get it to turn black. Then use the down arrow to go down the list and the up arrow to go up the list. Once you get to a category, you can select a preset and go with it or customize it under the Advanced Button/Video Tab and Audio Tab of the preset.
If you post the properties of your source media that you want to try to match in the export, I would be glad to suggest the exact settings for you.
We will be watching for your follow up with details.
Thank you.

Add On...The Premiere Elements 10 File Menu is for more than Saving, just not exporting. One of the key features that can be access there is the Project Archiver. More on that another time.

I had all my old home video's and super 8 movies converted to DVD's. Since I will move back to Europe I asked the company to convert them to PAl system.

I had all my old home video's and super 8 movies converted to DVD's. Since I will move back to Europe I asked the company to convert them to PAl system. I just got all the DVD's for a lot of money, but I can not play any of them on my MAC book.(I think that is because they were burned on zone 1 dvd's and my lap top works with zone 2.
I wonder how I can make them work on my macbook..? I intended to start editing those movies so I need to be able to play them on my mac. Is there a way to copy them to zone 2 DVD's and or to zone 0 dvd's and where do I get those free zone or zone 1 recordable dvd's?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
The Apple TV 2 will play all the content in your iTunes library that your Apple TV 1 does. It can no longer sync any of it but can stream it all just as the older model did. Airplay is a different feature that lets you stream from an iPad/iPhone, the Apple TV 2 has Airplay the first didn't.
You can still sort and search content by genre, it still marks content watched and unwatched and mainly still lets you organise much as the Apple TV 1 did, with one exception. It doesn't do nested folders, so the ability to tag a movie as a show (ie James Bond) and have all the associated movies in a James bond folder has gone and it lists all these movies individually.
It has a similar situation with TV shows. It will put all TV shows in a series in a folder as the older one did, but the new one lists each series separately whereas the older model would put all the series in one folder.
Not nesting folders is a bit of a pain with large libraries and whilst I don't like it, it's more or less the only compromise I have to make and of course I get additional features too.
