Can't save videos with Quicktime Pro

Hi, I was trying to watch the new iPhone 3.0 OS presentation, but it couldn't stream properly. So I wanted to download it so I could watch it later without buffering etc. But when I save it 'as a qt movie' or 'a qt source' it saves as a maximally 3kb .mov file. And when I play it, it streams again. So I don't understand how it isn't downloaded fully.
Can anyone help?
Thank you very much!

True "streaming media" files in QuickTime format can't be saved to a local machine. All you can save is a "link" (your 3KB file) to the source.
Many of those Apple presentation files (Keynotes, for an example) are available for download at the iTunes Store.

Can't save MP3s with Quicktime Pro

All of a sudden, whenever I stream a QT file, I don't see the drop-down arrow on the right like I used to so I can save the file. This used to work fine. I still have an active registered QT Pro account. What happened?

Just figured it out: It's a bug in Safari 4 beta. It works in Firefox.

Hi Tim ..
Reinstall Safari 5.0.6 for Leopard
Then restart your Mac. Try Safari.
If it crashes again, uninstall the Flash plugin then reinstall new > Troubleshoot Flash Player | Mac OS
Quit then relaunch Safari. From the Safari menu bar click Safari > Empty Cache
Right or control click the Safari icon in your Applications folder then click Get Info.
If the box next to: Open in 32 bit mode is selected, deselect, quit then relaunch Safari.

How do I Capture Streaming video with Quicktime Pro?

In Lamonts post about converting video for the iPod, it was pointed out that one can capture streaming video (Steve Jobs Keynote speech for instance), with Quicktime Pro. I have QT7.04 Pro, but don't know how to do this simple thing. Can someone please tell me?
Smartmart

it's possible. i did it myself, after a few tryouts.
i still can't get the best result, but i got something.
first of all you have to save the streaming file(thru the save as qt movie, from CTRL-click). when you get a stream it gets cached on your computer. you might playback it even when offline. so if all that you need is a simple playback, that's ok. but it's a cache, sometime the system will erase it from your HD.
if you want to keep it as a qt file(or any other format) thats this is the deal. when you save the stream file, it saves a reference file(4kb) that reads the cache. you cannot recover them from the cache, not even by changing the termination, because the qt player won't recognize the .qtch files transformed into .mov.
open the file(reference you saved before), choose export from the file menu, and choose the setting that you want. i still don't get a good quality(i know it's incredible that a stream file has a better quality...) and i still have to export the video separated from the audio. but if you need only the moving image to edit a homevideo, and your only source is a stream, it's a start.
so if anyone feel like growing the knowledge tree, let's go ahead.

Error when trying to save still image from video with Quicktime Pro

I just purchased Quicktime Pro so that I can use it with my new Nano (the one that shoots video). I want to grab a frame from the video and create a still image (in jpeg format). I should be able to do it, but when I try, I get an error 11005 (or something like that). Anyone know any way to fix this? Thanks!

I also tried the alt/ctrl/shift buttons when clicking Editor in the Photoshop welcome screen. It did ask if I wanted to reset the preferences. I chose yes. I still get the same error message when trying to save for web.
Below....showing I don't have a "save for web" folder on my C drive.
And below, showing the same error after pressing alt/shift/ctrl when clicking on editor and clearing the preferences.
I don't have a 'Save for Web' folder anywhere on my C: drive. I searched and came up with no folder with the text "save for web" in it.
I did find a "save for web" folder on my D: drive and deleted that.. but now when I start up Photoshop, the option for Save for Web is grayed out...not able to select it.

Can I cut & past MOV videos with QuickTime Pro ?

I have a couple of DigiCam Quicktime MOV videos which I want to cut & paste.
Is this possible with a QuickTime Pro installation (under WinXP) ?
Is there any other alternative software which let me do such simple tasks with Quicktime MOV videos?
Peter

Yes.
QuickTime Player Pro allows editing of nearly any format it can "play". MPEG-1 can be viewed but not edited.

Saving Videos With QuickTime Pro

I recently brought QuickTime Pro so I could save videos I wanted, and put them on my iPod. I'm having troubles doing this. Can someone please help?!?

Sometimes when you tap the download link in Safari yu can download and save the video. The GoodReader app allows you to download via entering the download URL. You can copy the URL from Safri and paste in GoodReader.

Extracting Audio from Video With QuickTime Pro?

I read on another discussion board that QuickTime Pro could record/extract audio only from a video file. So I purchased the QuickTime Pro upgrade today (for Windows XP) but can't seem to find out how to do it, assumimg that post was correct and it can be done at all.
The Nero video editing software I use can get the video file in MPEG-2, MPEG-1, AVI and other formats. I tried MPEG-1, but even the conversion to QuickTime's .mov format came up with no audio at all. I noticed a post here saying that was a limitation of the software. I could purchase the QuickTime MPEG-2 add-on but that seems to only allow playback and doesn't look like it will help any.
Another post on the other discussion board said that virtualdub.org has a software program that could do this extraction, but silly me I went with Apple and was delighted to read about the no refund policy just now. :-/
I'm guessing another possible approach is some kind of hardware solution -- a recording device of some sort?

In order to extract a track (video or audio) the file first must have those as independent tracks.
MPEG 1 and 2 are "muxed" (video and audio in the same track) so QuickTime Pro has nothing to extract.
MPEG Streamclip (free) can convert .mpg and .mpeg files to QuickTime formats.
If you export from Nero as .avi you can also use QuickTime Pro to extract tracks as it will have at least two.
MPEG 1 and 2 are playback formats and are not intended to be edited.

Can't save changes in Quicktime pro on Windows 8.1

I can't save any changes i make in quicktime pro 7.7.5. I am trying to trim a video clip.
I am using QP just as i would on my mac version, modifying start and end points.
When i click save, literally nothing happens .not even an eror message, nothing.

OK. That rules out a "reference movie".
You make a "selection" (in and out points) in the timeline and then you're using the "Cut" or "Trim to Selection" from the Edit menu?
And then "Save As" or "Save"? Do you get the next window where you can edit the file name and change the destination directory?

Can not encode / export videos in quicktime Pro

I have been unable to ever sucessfuly export a video with quicktime pro on my new laptop I got this past July right from the start.
When ever I start exporting a video into the h.264 or other formats the progress will start off at 8% and about 5 minutes later will on average get as far as 21%. But that is as far as I can get. At that time quicktime terminates. I get a Message from the Visual C++ Library saying that QuickTimePlayer.exe has encountered a buffer overun and its internal state has become currupted and must be terminated. When you click OK quicktime Is closed out, and the file you were attempting to create is left on your disk with a file size of 0 bytes.
This is with the latest version of quicktime.
My system spects are
CPU: AMD Athlon X2 4800+
Memory: 2 GB
OS: Windows XP Professional SP2
Does anyone know what is causing the buffer overrun and how I can fix it or get past this problem. Uninstalling and Reinstalling quicktime does not fix the issue and it has been happening since day one like I said.
I typed out the whole buffer overrun error when It occured about 10 minutes ago here trying to post this thread, however I should of known better then leaving the buffer overrun errors open and quicktime ideling with the termination message. Windows Decided to BSOD on my just as I was getting ready to post this message=\

QuickTime is not supported on the 64-bit version of Windows (look here for the official statement), so if that's what you have (as I presume you do from the processor description), it may well not work correctly. Some people have managed to get it working (at least tolerably), but from what I've read, a recent security update from Microsoft has caused a lot of problems. You might try rolling back recent Windows updates and see if you can get things working, but it may just not work for you.

None of my video's in iPhoto will play with Quicktime Pro

Good evening everyone, I installed Snow Leopard today, and I had Quicktime Pro, after the install it was in my Applications, Utilities folders, and I can open it, and my registration key for pro is there, but when I click on a video in iPhoto it opens with Quicktime X. How do I open them with Pro? Thanks so much!

I found the solution in case anyone is having the same problem. If you open Quicktime Pro in Snow Leopard, choose file, then open file, and then you can open any video with the pro features that way. Hope this helps some one!

Any camcorders that save video in QuickTime format?

I love the QuickTime .MOV format and it is far superior to Windows Media stuff on the PC. I would like to buy a very simple camcorder that will save the video on a memory card or something. So that when I pull these video clips into iTunes or QuickTime, I won't have to do any converting of file formats.
Can someone suggest a little recorder that will do this? I don't need one with lots of bells and whistles.
Thanks.

Most modern video cameras record to DV Stream (onto tape). These files are brought into iMovie, edited and exported to QuickTime formats. Some record to DVD disc as MPEG-2 format which do not (easily) allow any editing but play back on your computer or through a set top box.
Most newer digital cameras also allow recording of short video clips. Dozens of formats and some that are hard to edit on a Mac. May use the ancient .avi container and many also only work on PC's.
For iMovie editing or importing for conversion you want a camera that includes a Firewire connection. Lots of different names (Sony calls it iLink).
You really don't want a camera that does the compression to a format for you. You want the "raw" file so you can edit and then convert without losing quality.
Any iSight camera can also be used with QuickTime Pro to record to .mov format. If you own an iSight you need only move up to QT Pro ($30).

I can't import my HD videos (MP4) from my Samsung OIS Duo into FCP.

I also try converting from MP4 to DV. Cannot import the .DV either.
Can someone help me?

Could it be the case that you have "proxy media" selected in the preferences (under Final Cut Pro -> Preferences, click on "Playback" and see which is selected, proxy or optimized), BUT you are not creating proxy media when importing?
If that is the case, either
- switch to "original/optimized media",
or
- create the proxy media (control-click the clip(s) in the event browser, choose "Transcode media" e check the box for "create proxy media").

ImageJ in Yosemite can not import video from QuickTime plugin

ImageJ in Yosemite can not import video from QuickTime plugin.... it seems can not found QuickTime_Capture.jar within QuickTime_Plugins.jar but I'm sure it is in the plugin directory.
I google this problem but not luck!
James

Thank you Benjt and Sue:
I have first chosen to followed Sue's suggestion concerning the firewire connections since that looked to be the one most easily done quickly. I therefore had to make more room on the hard drive in my MacBook Pro since the drive is only 100 GB. I normally use an external 400GB drive to hold my video files since one of the plays last May required about 200GB! However, the play this time was a short one and not really High Density anyway like the one was in May with a much finer camera. I have been connecting the external HD via Firewire800.
I simply moved a number of files from my MacBook Pro drive and put them in the external HD as well as another HD and then disconnected the external HD from my MacBook. I was, indeed, able to import the entire tape in one shot into iMovie. iMovie is still not working right since I found that I had to click "import" in iMovie to start collecting a clip and then hit "play" on my camcorder to actually import the tape contents into the clip. I found the whole play, just 50 min this time, in that clip when we returned home this evening.
I can now get the editing done one their last play for the kids and have DVDs for them when I go back up to Gainesville to record their current play on Thursday evening.
I will then devote some time to trying to solve the rest of the problem, looking into Benjt's suggestions.
Thanks very much for your very timely critical and positive help this afternoon. For your information, I also have been working on learning Final Cut Express but as I tried to put all of my reading into practice, I now I can't even get FCE to open - but that's another story and a very different problem.
Thanks again.
