Can't assign chapter track to video track

In the "Creating a Chapter List" help screen, step 17 says "Choose the main video or audio track from the Chapters pop-up menu." But when I do that, the Chapter pop-up menu only gives me the Text track as an option. How can I get the video track to appear as an option? Thanks for any advice.

I'm using QuickTime v6.5.2. If you're using v7, your screens might look a little different from mine.
To connect the chapter track to the video track, go to "Get Movie Properties" (Apple-J) and select the chapter track in the left-hand popup. In the right-hand popup, select "Make Chapter".
In the main properties window, there will be a window that shows the tracks controlled by the current chapter track, and a pair of buttons to set or unset the chapter owner track. When you hit the set button, a pop-up should give you the names of all the tracks that can be tied to the chapter track. That's where you should choose the video or audio track.
Does that help, or am I just telling you what the manual already confused you with? 8-)

How can you control the order of video tracks?

I have an iDVD project with an intro movie (movie played when the disc is first inserted), 5 20 minutes videos (each of which is an individual iMovie project with chapter markers, but the videos are meant to be watched in order 1, 2, 3, 4, then 5), and an addition 5 minute video. When I created the disk image, I noticed it started encoding the last of the 20 minute videos and then seemed to encode the rest of the videos in random order.
I burned the disk image to DVD and started watching it in my DVD player. When you watch the first 20 minute video, when it finishes you return to the menu so you can choose the second 20 minute video. But, if you scene skip through a 20 minute video on the last scene, it takes you to the next track. The problem is the tracks are all in random order. So instead of scene skipping to the next 20 minute video, it takes me to the intro video, then to 20 minute video, ect. It's all out of order.
My question is does anyone know how to control track order? Is the track order the order in which the videos are encoded? (It seems to that is the case.) I tried inserting the videos into the iDVD project in the order I wanted them, but I don't know if that will work or not. The assets all appear in random order in the Project Info window.

I would like to know also. I have made many DVDs, but the number order does seem to be random. For presentation purposes I want to play a specific clip by hitting it's corresponding number on the DVD player remote when the DVD is at a complete stop (so if I put the movie clip in the 2 spot and hit the number 2 on the remote, then the 2 movie clip will play). I can get this to work from the menu by dropping them in iDVD in the order I want and waiting for each to encode before dropping the next, but at a complete stop I cannot ensure number 2 on the remote will play number 2 on the DVD. To me it looks like iDVD gives those numbers in the order in which the audio is encoded when burning, with the shorter clips first and longer ones last.
Can anyone help me?

Is there anyway I can have a graphic track an object in a video?

Is there anyway I can have a graphic track an object in a video?

In FCE it can be done, but it's a rather tedious process. Load the graphic from the Timeline into the Viewer, then click on the Motion tab. Keyframe the movement as needed to follow the subject in the video (while watching the Canvas window).

On iMovie how can you mute a section of the sound track so you can hear the audio from the video clip?

.

Hey,
If you double-click on the soundtrack you can open it up in the inspector tab and lower the soundtrack so that you can hear the audio from the video clip.

ITunes can't play all tracks on a cd

I have a brand new Dell XPS 730 gaming pc. Previously, I was running Vista 32 bit that it came with. The other day I reinstalled Vista 64 bit and installed itunes for 64 bit vista. When I put in either regular audio cds or burned cds, itunes will only recognize a few tracks and just skip the rest. When trying to import a track it skips over it takes about one second and it sees it as being like hundreds of hours long. I tried multiple cd's that work PERFECTLY FINE in a cd player on my boombox. I also then tried these in Windows Media Player 11 and the same exact issue occurred. WMP gave an error message saying there was something wrong with my drive. I have two DVD-RW drives. I tried this all on both drives and same issue happened. I find it hard to believe that in the span of a day both of my drives had something go wrong with them that they can't read discs properly, especially when I can play any DVD games fine and can burn discs using my Roxio burning program perfectly fine as well.
I don't understand why the same problem would be happening in WMP if it was a problem with itunes. I'm guessing it could be an issue with Vista 64 bit not working properly with the DVD drives, i'm not too sure. I just find it odd that this problem would crop up when my pc was working fine in 32 bit with iTunes. Anyone else having this problem, and anyone actually found a solution to it yet?
Below is the diagnostic I ran with a regular audio cd in each drive that work fine on my boombox cd player. It's definitely not recognizing them properly as you can see in the track times of like 20 hours plus when they're only 4 to 6 minutes long.

I have a similar issue, pleae let me know if you've figured this out.
On mine, it will play approx 1 minute of an audio CD, then quit. Will not play subsequent tracks at all, and skips them as you describe when trying to import. Same result in iTunes and Windows Media player. But I was able to play a DVD movie and also to burn a copy of a CD. Very odd.

Assignment Date Track History-Changed Field Summary

Hi all,
We have Oracle HR 11.5.7 FP.G.
In the HRMS there is a for the Employee's Assignment Date Track History showing the Changed Field Summary.
We want to specify the exact field(s) changed in Assignment for a period using SQL or Discoverer for Reporting Purposes.
Does anyone have any sample coding or idea on how to perform this?That is to specify exactly what fields changed in an assignment change.
What I can think of is to compare values but I'm not sure how I can get the desired result.
I would appreciate any feedback.
Thanking you in advance
Elena

Elena,
To meet you're requirement: changes per person during a period
- done this before using audit trail, be aware that the reports that comes out standard, does not resemble anything a HR user can read. Quite often it says this ID has change to that ID. Building a reports that changes this into something meaning full for a HR/Payroll person does require a considerable effort.
- using the change event log (system extract) or the retro notification report (payroll) will give you're results in a better format. Problem you may encounter here, is that not all entities are available (by default). You may have to add some dynamic triggers.
- if you want to understand how the datetrack functionality is deriving the data, this paper on metalink may help : Create and Modify DateTrack History Views Note:177734.1

Quicktime Pro 7.6.5 for Windows - Chapter Tracks problem - Preloading?

Hi there,
I have Quicktime Pro 7.6.5 (which is the latest I believe) for Windows and I'm trying to add a chapter track. I'm using Apples tutorial at http://www.apple.com/quicktime/tutorials… and I'm up to step 10. In my Other Settings tab under chapters all I have for options is "none" (see? http://i50.tinypic.com/30958wk.jpg) which means there is no properties popup and I can't make it preload.
Please help? As I'm on Windows I can't use Garageband or whatever, the only programs I have is the CyberLink DVD suite, Windows Movie Maker (for Vista if that matters) and some form of muvee, though I dunno which one.. I also have Showbiz 2 on a disc somewhere.
Thanks
(PS: to get this straight, it will work on a DVD right? If I put a chapter track on then burn to DVD when I put the DVD in my player the chapter track will come up?)

QuickTime Pro does not play .wmv files. It doesn't export them without some other third party software.
Try reading the steps and supported file formats before your complain about what it does, or doesn't, do.

Quicktime Audio - discrete channels vs. assigned audio tracks

Hello everyone,
I just recently started using Quicktime 7 Pro's audio options.
Now there is an issue I need help understanding:
A partner sent me a mov file with 8 discrete audio channels (l,r,c,lfe,ls,rs,lt,rt). When I play the mov, I only hear ambience/background audio. I hear no dialog. When I assign each channel using cmd+j -> audio settings I can hear every audio track correctly (atleast I think so, is there a way/software to check whether every single track has output?).
I tested playback with VLC and it plays the audio fine, without any adjustments (also only tested by hearing).
I start distributing digital movies to cinema operators. Is there an audio standard for digital cinema ProRes movs? Are cinema operators okay with 8-ch discrete audio mov files? Do their players ignore or use the lt/rt? I guess it depends on the cinema operator but maybe there's a standard. I'm keen to learn.
Thank you in advance, cheers
Loki

What are you doing with these clips after you digitise, and before you export them? Make sure that if you edit your clips into a Sequence, you are not re-establishing them as a stereo pair (in the Timeline, if the clips display with a little 'bowtie' icon, they are enabled as a stero pair). Also, don't forget to check how you're monitoring your audio.
The process you've just done should absolutely create what you need.

ITunes can't find my tracks - please please help, DJ in need to urgent fix!

iTunes cannot find my tracks which have been working fine on my external HDD for a long time. Basically today I have tried to move my library from one external HD to another (due to portability issues) I changed my iTunes media folder location in the preferences to the new drive, and then consolidated my library in order to copy all of the tracks...when I opened up the new library on the new HDD the files could not be found. So I simply decided to change the media folder library back to its old location again so that I could just load up my initial library and go about copying my library in a different way... however, when I went back to the old library location which should not have changed at all, it was also unable to find 99% of the files!
Please help. I cannot recreate my library from scratch as I have 10000 tracks, most of which which are all sorted out into different playlists ready for DJing. The tracks are still on the HDD and I can find them individually, but this is obviously out of the question for such a large library of tracks. Please can someone enlighten me as to how can I relocate them without reconstructing the library?? Thanks very much, i'm pulling my hair out right now with stress!!!

Hey thanks very much for your reply. The original folder was still the H drive because I was trying to move from one exHD to another (one which is much more portable) Also the media folder location definitely shows the correct location of all the tracks. The new library did not work properly so I went back to my old drive in order to try again and follow a guide online so that it would 100% work correctly. However, when going back to the old drive I experienced the problems, so now my main (old) library is not working.
I think the problem lies somewhere along these lines - If you look at the picture closely you can see that the tracks file name is different for some reason before and after manual relocation...
So in the picture above it's originally trying to find the file "02 Serial Killa" and failing. However, after manual location it has realised the file is called "B Shackles - Serial Killa" so for some reason its searching for the wrong filename (I think!?)
Any help will be massively appreciated!! Thanks

I'm trying to record audio into my iPad2 using GarageBand and an iRig, but I can't monitor my tracks at the same time as recording, meaning if I lay down a drum track and attempt to record guitar, I can't hear the drums while recording. Thoughts?

Hi, I have this exact same problem. I haven't been using an iRig, just a cheap USB-jack cable. I managed to do this with the first cable I bought, but since it broke I've been unable to find a replacement that allows me to hear the drums while recording. DId you manage to get over this issue? If so I would really like to know how. Thanks and best wishes.

If you mean can you have them both connected at the same time, then it's a yes. I have both connected and use the mouse for some functions and the trackpad for others... works a charm.

You can't. If its offline it can't be tracked. The device needs to be powered on and connected to an Internet connection to be trackable.

Why Can't I Import Track 10 from my Music Library?

I have 350 albums in my computer music library and I can't import any track 10 song from an album to iTunes. The message I get is: "The file 10 <Whatever Song Name>.wma cannot be imported because it does not appear to be a valid exported file." This happens on every track 10 title in my library and on one track 1 title that is 14 minutes long. Help!

I am a PC user, but this may help you??:
I am having the same problem with track 10 on two Springsteen CDs that would not play in my desktop PC (one was a dual dvd, the other a regular CD). So first, to get them to work, I had to find a source (my laptop) that would "see" the CD. Then I ripped to Windows Media, then copied onto an external hard drive, then imported into iTUnes.
Everything went well until track 10 on both (After that, the rest of the tracks imported okay on one CD, and then on the other track 11 had a problem, but the rest ok).I found a posting (see below for the link) and it solved the problem on track 10 on both (basically I changed the track# to another number else in the Properties/ Summary/ Advanced section). However it didn't work for that one track 11. So if anyone has ideas on that, I'd appreciate it. I tried fiddling with all the differnt categories in Summary (track name, album name, etc) and rename the song itself, removing the number, but to no avail. Here is the posting that I found the solution on
