Best Settings to Export HD Video Slideshow from iPhoto '09 for YouTube

Trying unsuccessfully thru trial & error to find the correct settings: in "Custom Export" I select "Movie to MPEG-4" as req'd for YouTube, then click "Options" and select MP4 (NOT the ISMA version) for File Format, then I select one of the two HD Image Sizes, then I'm completely lost with regards to Video Format, Data Rate, Frame Rate, etc. Any advice for creating the highest quality YouTube-compatible results?

  • How can I export trimmed video clips from iPhoto?

    I have video clips from a kid's sporting event that I need to send to other parents on the team. I've got 73 clips that have been loaded from an SD card, and I've trimmed the length on about half of them.
    I'm trying to figure out the best way to export them from iPhoto. When I select 'Original', I get the full-size files, but they're not trimmed. I can drag and drop the clips from iPhoto to a folder, and I do get files that are trimmed correctly, but they're very small (around 12K), so I'm guessing that they link to files on my own hard drive, and won't work if I send them to somebody else.
    I am guessing that I could fix the problem manually by making a list of videos that I trimmed, opening each one of the 12K files files in QT Player, and saving that movie. This creates a full-size movie file which is the right file size for the trimmed portion. However, I'd like to be able to do all of this in a single batch operation. Is there a solution for this?

    You can't. Trimming inside iPhoto stays inside iPhoto. (Does that have a familiar ring to it?)  All trimming must be done outside of iPhoto with Quicktime Player.  So export the clips to a folder on the Desktop and do the trimming there.

  • How can I export a slideshow from iPhoto to iMovie 09.  I try but it only lets me import 211 out of the 311 photos I have in the slideshow.

    How can I export a slideshow from iPhoto to iMovie 09.  I try, but it only exports 211 out of the 311 photos I have in the slideshow I made on iPhoto.

    how do i change the format to the right one?
    Before you can decide what to do, you have to know what you are starting with. Sony MPEG-1 files would be converted one way while DivX or WMV files would likely be handled in another. Extraneous tracks can be removed directly with QT Pro but if you don't have QT Pro then there may or may not be other work around possibilities depending on the specific audio and video compression formats in use. The best place to start would normally be to double-clic the source file in iPhoto to open it in the QT Player. When it opens in the QT Player, check the "Inspector" window to see what it says on the "Format:" lines. This will tell you the type of audio and video content you are dealing with here. Then come and tell us so we can offer some specific conversion solutions.

  • HT4718 After burning a slideshow from iPhoto export to a DVD, it will not play on my DVD player OS X 10.9.4

    iMac 27' OS X 10.9.4 I burned a slideshow from iPhoto export to a DVD and now it will not play back on anything. The player said Unknown disc. What can i do?

    I do find that using one of these programs will reduce the sharpness of the photos.
    Granted, I've never used iPhoto - I use Photo to Movie for slideshows and various versions of iMovie for videos, but my pics are excellent quality and my videos are shot in 1080p (better camera)  or 720p (small camera) and the results are superb on my TV using both iDVD and Toast. However, I do not encode in iDVD, I simply use it to add a theme and menus. The encoding is done by Photo to Movie, or iMovie 06 HD (the only version ever to process losslessly) and either/both are imported into iDVD as a complete .mov, or Toast.
    Since using those methods, I've never had a problem with the sharpness or crispness of my footage. My eyes cannot discern a difference between my "production" and true HD (unless of course I shook the camera while shooting, LOL).

  • Best settings to export for the web?

    Hey everyone,
    What do you think is the best setting to export video to web? I export now using quicktime and once in a while (I would like to use it more often since its much easier) compressor. So what is the best settings to export video to the web without having it get all blurry? I also use an XL2 so the video is good.

    JB
    but I'm concerned about whether H264 is accessible by an audience outside the Mac umbrella.
    They need QT7 installed.
    You can get Flip4Mac and add WMV export capabilities to QT. I'm sure that with a little of experimentation you'll get good results and the needed component isn't expensive.
    Hope that helps !

  • How to copy/export a video clip from event library to external hard drive?

    Can you help? Can you export a video clip from the iMovie Event library to a hard drive

    You can "daisy chain" FireWire devices. Plug your IF into the Mbook, and plug your external disk into the IF (it has two ports...), or do it the other way around, whatever seems to work best.
    The whole chain will be as fast as your slowest device, and I think the FPod is FW 400, so the disk will also operate at that speed. Many people work like this on their laptops, and it works fine. Better than USB.
    Don't use USB for it. USB needs CPU and is in general less efficient in handling audio. Daisychaining FW-devices is the way to go.
    regards, Erik.

    Have them install Quicktime on their PC's from Apple's website, that's the easiest fix.

  • When exporting a video slideshow to my desktop it will start and then just end with no progress so I have to cancel it.

    Found out LR wasn't stopping but slowed way down. For 19 pictures, no video and no sound it took over 6 Hrs to export.  Does anyone have any ideas to help this?  Thank You.

  • I cannot export a slideshow from Iphoto to iTunes

    I am trying to export a slideshow from iphoto to itunes so that I can burn it to a dvd.  The automatically sent to itunes is checked but the export button is not highlighted.

    You are asking about a slideshow in iPhoto on your Mac, right? Then the iLife > iPhoto forum would have been the right one to ask your question. This forum is for iPhoto on IOS devices.
    The automatically sent to itunes is checked but the export button is not highlighted.
    The "Export" button will become active, when you select a size for your exported movie. Press one of the sizes , for example "Large", if you want to view the movie on your iPad or Apple TV.

  • How do I export video files from iPhoto to a backup external hard drive for safekeeping?

    How do I export video files from iPhoto to a backup external hard drive for safekeeping?  Each time I try, the video will not play from the external hard drive.

    Use the File ➙ Export ➙ File Export menu option with Kind = Original.  That should get the original video file exported.  Try to export one to the Desktop first and open it with Quicktime Player.  If all goes well export the rest to a folder on the EHD. How is the EHD formatted?  It should be OS X Extended (journaled).

  • Exporting slideshow from iphoto to idvd /message says" disc is full"

    when exporting slideshow from iphoto to idvd /message says" disc is full" It is a new mac with 2gb extra memory. I have cleared out all extraneous files, so there should be room on the disc. Help, this is a student''s work and would love to help them burn the dvd slideshow.

    Patricia
    IS this your Hard Disk is full?
    OS X needs about 10 gigs of HD space to function normally. It uses this space for things like Virtual Memory and temporary files and other OS operations.
    I have cleared out all extraneous files, so there should be room on the disc
    How did you do this? Did you empty the trash?

  • Best way to export a 4:3 720x480 24p animation for DVD

    We've been working on an animation for the past couple of months and it's the first one we've done.  It's going to go onto a DVD and the project is 24fps progressive.  The video looks extremely good in Premiere Pro, but when I export as an Mpeg2-DVD complient file the video becomes very degraded, and a lot of the animation looks very jagged.  What would be the best settings to export this at to get a quality closest to the original.  The entire video is only 22 minutes long so I'm not worried about space on the DVD.
    Thanks.

    Here's what I would do.
    Install the free Lagarith codec on your system.  Export out a Lagarith intermediate with the appropriate specs.
    Install the free HC Encoder on your system, along with AVISynth.  Read the various web postings about how to make this work.
    Once you have it working, use the following settings in HC Encoder. (Pay attention to the underlining.)
    That'll create arguably the best picture you can get without using Scenarist.
