Best plug-in or app to play and export avi flicks

Hi
What is the best plug-in for FCPX, QT, or app to play and export avi flicks? Can they play in FCPX or FCP 7?

AVI is a wrapper format like MOV. It would depend upon the codec used to encode the video if FCPX would be able to open it or not. I believe, in general, if you can open the movie file in QT, you can open it, play, and edit it in FCPX.  That said, AVI is a Windows format and there are a lot of codecs in use in Windows that are not likely to be compatible with the codecs you have installed with Quicktime.  First try opening the file in Quicktime Player. If you are in need of a codec to play the file, one of the easiest ways to install a lot of these codecs at once is via Perian (it is "end of life" at this point, but still works just fine in Yosemite.) You can download it here : http://perian.cachefly.net/Perian_1.2.3.dmg
I have been able to import, open and edit AVI files in FCPX (more specifically, ones encoded with XVID/MP3).

  • Final Cut Pro Problem playing and exporting

    I am having problem playing and exporting in final cut pro. I made an animation in maya and used batch render to render a folder of images then imported the folder to final cut pro but it doesn’t play properly in the video window or even when I exported to quicktime. Do u know why?
    Please give me your response asap.
    Thank you very much!

    As the link that Russ posted describes, use quicktime player to open the image sequence and then do a save.  Bringing in an image sequence directly into fcp will cause extreme performance problems in my experience. 
    Describe the setting (pixel dimensions, color space, etc) of the original files.  One important question is whether there is an alpha channel associated with the files.  You may want to change the codec when you do the save in quicktime player to something more fcp friendly like one of the flavors of prores.

  • Lag playing and exporting video

    Hi, I have Premiere Pro CS4;my problem is that I make a short video (15 sec.; 640x480; MPEG-4) to learn how to use the application.
    Original video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GlKFE9ntq1U
    My idea was to make a new video, erasing 3 sec. from the original, where my grandfather appears. Reading in this forum i learnt how to make this using trims; I create 2 subclips and I added them to the Program Monitor. No problems!!
    Export the media, Media Encoder open normally, select an output format: H.264 - Youtube preset, I want to use this because I will make short videos to companies and upload to Youtube. Export was fine.
    But when I play the new video in any media player (klite, windows media player, adobe media player), the movie is shake (lag or choppy).
    Look: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=92EFrDkK6Qk
    Errors at the seconds:
    -00:02
    -00:05
    -00:06
    -00:09
    For example: the video is playing and in a moment the video reverse 1 second in a snap and continue playing from that point, sometimes this problem occurs in a second, and the next second, and the next second.
    And this choppy/lag/shake doesn't occur in the set in/out points of trims, else in almost all the movie. The audio layout is perfect. The trouble is the video. I had exported in almost all the output formats. AVI, uncompressed avi, mpeg, ...
    Reviewing the problem, and playing the subclips inside Premiere, I see that the same problem occurs too.
    When I make a subclip, and play after (inside premiere), I see the problem inmediately. That's the real problem, How to make a good subclip without this problem?
    My computer hardware is:
    -windows xp sp3.
    -intel dual core processor @ 2.66 ghz.
    -ram 2 gb.
    -nvidia serie 8 with 256mb.
    -I had installed all the updates.
    P.S.: Sorry for my bad english.
    Message was edited by: leac3

    problem solved.
    I use now Klite Avidemux to create subclips, and after use Premiere to import them, and create the sequenece, delete the audio layout and add another.
    Now export fine.!! Kisses'n Spanks!!

  • Best way to update apps like Java and Adobe?

    Hi guys
    I just wanted to get some feedback on how best to deal with updating Java and Adobe. Of course a lot of this will be opinion and circumstance, but feedback would be useful.
    The 3 methods I am focusing on here is SCUP, the App model and the Packaging model.
    Thanks
    NN

    My environment is very sensitive to disruption (including popups), so I took the least disruptive route I could find. My solution leverages the
    STATIC=1 install switch (see:
    http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/silent-136552.html). This forces a unique install directory based on the version you are installing.
    Example:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre1.6.0_45
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre1.6.0_51
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre1.6.0_60
    In the upgrade scenario it leaves the existing version alone and installs the update side-by-side. Next time the user relaunches their JAVA application it leverages the latest installed version.
    When I create the update in SCUP the install argument looks like this: /s STATIC=1 IEXPLORER=1 MOZILLA=1
    Following our regularly scheduled reboot window, I create a collection that has computers with both old and new versions installed. I then send out a silent uninstall for the outdated version, which in most cases is no longer in use, and therefore leaves
    the user unaware that there was a change.

  • I just checked my emails to look at iTunes emails then i noticed some purchases i did not authorize. i found 8 emails saying i purchased currency for an app i play and i added up the receipts to a total of over $240. how can i get my money back?

    i am frustrated and mad that someone made purchases using my itunes account and somehow my credit card was added to my account as well. i didn't even add it myself. what can i do to get my money back thats all i want.

    They show on your account's purchase history e.g. they aren't phishing emails ? If you log into your account on your computer's iTunes via the Store > View Account menu option, you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it. Click on that and you should then see a list of your purchases.
    Have you also removed your credit card from your account (does anybody else have access to your card and might have added it ?) : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1918 ?
    If they show there and nobody else has access to your account or devices and made them, then try contacting iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

  • 5.1 ac3 audio plays and exports as stereo in CS6

    I am using the trial version of Premiere Pro CS6 at the moment. I am trying to create a short video that uses an 5.1 ac3 file that I created. I know the file is 5.1 because it plays through all the speakers on my WD TV HD Live media player, as well as through VLC Player on my computer. When I import the audio into Premiere Pro CS6, it plays as stereo. The same is true for audio from the video I imported. The video (from a Panasonic TM700 camcorder) also has 5.1 surround, but plays in stereo.
    I went to Edit > Preferences > Audio and set the default audio tracks to 5.1. Under Audio Hardware, the only thing in the dropdown is Premiere Pro WDM Sound. I do not know what that is. My onboard sound card is Realtek High Definition Audio (on an Asus P9X79 Pro motherboard) and it works correctly as far as I can hear from all of my speakers.
    Under Audio Output Mapping, there are only two channels listed. Again, Premiere Pro WDM Sound is the only option, and only the left and right speakers are in the list under that.
    Does PrP CS6 not support my Realtek onboard sound? Why is it not listing all six channels?
    Thanks in advance!

    This has been an argument, discussed since at least PrPro 2.0.
    Going back to about that point (when Minnetonka Audio offered a discount for PrPro users), Minnetonka Audio basically opened up their books to me, when I inquired about volume licensing. I do not recall the exact prices, or even the discount, but the Dolby Labs' charge was most of the cost, and Minnetonka Audio only made about US $50 per SurCode plug-in.
    Now, with the Minnetonka Audio SurCode, one CAN use the DD logo, when certain criteria have been met. With most other 5.1 SS Encoders, they are NOT certified DD, so cannot legally display that logo. Sony, with their Vegas NLE's, seems to be an exception to that restriction. I am not sure what the legal issues are, but Sony does (or did) create DD 5.1 SS, with some of their programs. Perhaps some sort of "brother-in-law deal" with Dolby Labs?
    To some editors, having fully legal DD logos is not important to them, or to their clients. In those cases, there are a few other methods (though somewhat convoluted), to Export 5.1 SS AC3's, just not DD-certified.
    I used the DD 5.1 SS enough, that I bought a license for each computer, and felt that my $ was well-spent. As you, and others mention, paying the licensing fee to Dolby and Minnetonka Audio, if one never uses the SurCode plug-in alters the price-point of the program, and all users will be paying more, whether they derive any value, or not. To me, it has more than paid for itself.
    It would akin to Adobe including the full Red Giant Magic Bullet Looks suite in their program. Price would go up, and many users would never need that, or want it.
    If asked, my vote would be to keep things, as they are, and those who want/need the SurCode plug-in can buy it.

  • Can't make a slideshow with iPhoto. Won't play and export Slideshow is gray

    I'm trying to export an album to a slideshow in iPhoto '09 and cannot. Whenever I select the "Slideshow" option, it turns gray like in a click and hold, but stays gray and the the box never flips over to Slideshow.
    Also, when I click the slideshow button at the bottom of an event or album, it just sits there. The program doesn't freeze, but it doesn't start a slideshow. Under the "File" menu, "Close Window" is my only selectable option. When I select it, the screen fades to black, comes back, and then closes the program.
    Has anyone else come across this problem and (preferably) come across a solution?
    Thanks!

    First try the easy fix: delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your User/Library/Preferences folder, launch iPhoto and try again.

    As for running PPC apps, you're out of luck. You can try setting up a virtual machine of Snow Leopard, but that's a bit of work. You can force the app to redownload from the App Store by holding option while you click on your purchases tab, which will make the "install" button clickable.

    I own the movies and I want them to stay in my iTunes library basically forever.
    But in both cases the file name no longer shows in the movie list, so I don't know how to re-download it from the Cloud.
    iTunes prefs > Store > Show iTunes in the Cloud purchases.
    This will show all your iTunes purchases in your library with a cloud icon down arrow. Click the icon to redownload or click on Play to stream without downloading.
    Also see this , -> Download past purchases
    and techncially, you don't "own" the movie, You simply have a license to use it.
    Yet the first thing iTunes does when you hit the delete key is tell you that it will remove the movie forever from all devices and the library.
    Actually, no it does not tell you that.
    FYI: You should keep copies of all yoru iTnue spurahses as the labels/movie studios/copyright owners can pull their product at anytime and it won't be available to redownload.

  • ITunes and iPhone 'Remote' app, only plays one song at a time

    Using iPhone 'Remote' app to control iTunes on Mac. I click on Albums, select an album, select the first track, it plays and then stops and goes back to the albums list. I've tried every conceivable combination of the little icons for Shuffle and track repeat, nothing changes this, it always plays just the track and select and then it's done, it goes back to the tracks list. I've spent hours researching this and cannot get it to work. Thanks for any help.

    Hi, although unchecking tracks is one way to manage what gets put on your device it has other side effects that make it less effective than the use of selected playlists. I generally use unchecking for marking tracks I'd usually want to ignore, such as bonus interview tracks on an album, or podcasts that aren't compatible with my device.
    It is much easier to use playlists rather than check boxes to manage the content. There is no need to make a series of ad hoc playlists however. You'll need two, one of which you can throw away later. Create a new smart playlist with the rules *Playlist is Music* and the option *Match only checked items* ticked. Call it Checked. Now create regular playlist and call it, for example, Sync. Select all the tracks in Checked (cmd-A I think) and drag them into Sync.
    Now you can go to your main music library and cmd-click on an empty checkbox to check all of your tracks so the unchecked behaviour no longer interferes with playback. Change your sync options so that the device syncs with your new playlist. In future you can manage the content by adding and removing things from this list instead of checking and unchecking them.

  • How to not have songs duplicates in app remote? I have playlists for my iphone and playlists for my pc. All songs of my iphone are also on my mac. When i use the remote app, it plays everything in double.

    Dear all,
    I am using itunes to control all my music and i like to use my iphone, or my ipad to control my music with the remote app.
    But i have a problem: all the music i have in my iphone count as double play.
    To explain everything since the beginning, i personally don't like and don't trust at all the music sync capability of itunes.
    So i have my music on my pc, and i load every type of music as a single playlist (ex a Pop-Rock folder, with all artists folders and so on, makes me a Pop-Rock playlist).
    For my iphone, i created a iphone music folder, with the same classification.
    It means that i don't have all my Pop-Rock music, only a selection. But of course the selected music appears also in my complete music collection.
    So in itunes i created a folder playlist named iphone music, with inside one playlist by type of music (exemple : Pop-Rock, which contains some files of my main Pop-Rock collection).
    So i do have duplicates in my hard drive. But when i selected the playlists to be shared on home sharing in itunes, i selected only the main playlists, not my iphone playlists! But still, when i look for ACDC artist for example, i should see only what i have on my pc, not what i have also on my iphone.
    The result is if i play an album for example Back In Black (i have it full on my hard drive, and full on my iphone too), then every song is displayed in remote app in double, and also played in double:
    Here is how it is displayed:
    Song 1
    Song 1
    Song 2
    Song 2
    So the remote app plays Song 1 one time, then Song 1 (the second Song 1) one time and continues like this to Song 2 etc...
    I guess that if i put my selection of songs on my ipad, i will then have everything in triple....
    It is very annoying. Is there a way for me to change that? Or for an update to be made (based on ID3 Tag) to not play everything twice or more? It would have an ID3 Tag No Double toggle button.
    I don't want to select from my main music to send elements to my iphone as doing that i lost a lot of music multiple times. This way of doing is not safe at all (at least for me).
    What is possible to do? Is there room for improvement here (i believe so). Is there a way for me to avoir this very annoying effect?
    I would really like to put my music to my iPad2 also, but after i'll have triple play....
    Thank you for your help.

    Nobody knows? Not even administrators?
    Please it would be really nice to have help on that to take all the benefit of the remote app.
    Thank you very much in advance.
