Can you slowdown the speed of a video in Imovie?

Have .mov files of 8mm film. They run too fast. Can Imovie slow them down?

Can you adjust the speed of a clip in iMovie '08?

I know you could adjust make things go in slow-mo, etc. in the older version of iMovie and it looks like iMovie '09 lets you do so. But I can't figure out how to do it in iMovie '08? Any hints?

This feature is not built into iMovie 08. However, you can take a clip and use a third party app like JES Deinterlacer to change the speed. Then reimport the new clip into iMovie.

Can you change the size of a video in imovie?

In iMovie...
How can I make a video image smaller (basically I need to do the opposite of cropping).
Any ideas?
Thanks

Hi
As far as I know - NO not possibly in iMovie
You need either to
• Export out as QuickTime movie - and in QuickTime Pro change size then re-import - or -
• Do the job in FinalCut - where this is easy and straight forward ( BUT FINALCUT in it self can be tough to LEARN - rather steet learning curve - but when into it Very rewarding )

Can you change the quality of YouTube videos? Using the YouTube application?

I have a iPhone 4s and I was just wondering can you change the quality of YouTube videos using the intergrated app. Because I have a bad internet connection and I would like to watch YouTube videos without the trouble of going into safari and doing it that way.

The dedicated app is going by the wayside with iOS 6, so a good time to get used to accessing YouTube with Safari only unless you don't plan on installing iOS 6 or unless YouTube decides to provide an app for free or a paid version via the App Store for iOS 6 and later.

How can you keep the highest iphone 4s Video quality the same when exporting it from iMovie.

How can you keep the highest iphone 4s Video quality the same when exporting it from iMovie.

InDesign's PDF export engine does not transcode your videos, they are embedded exactly as they were in the original file. The Flash Player runtime which displays video inside PDF files may not show a perfect match to Quicktime etc. because most video playback tools aren't designed for a color-calibrated workflow, but they should be close.
The playback quality (blocking and aliasing) will be affected if the clip is not playing at 100% (screen pixels != video pixels) and in PDFs with the standard video player widget, that will only ever happen when you use 'floating window' mode. PDF pages have physical dimensions, so viewing them at "100%" does not make them match screen pixels.
If you don't mind the video clip being smaller than the media annotation in which it's playing, then use my free upgrade to the Acrobat playback widget - VideoPlayerX - which maintains 1:1 pixel scale until the page is zoomed out too far for it to fit. You can install the widget into InDesign so it's used by default when exporting.

How can I change the speed of a video clip?

hi, I'm a new user of iMovie 08.
I fail to find the function button that can make a video clip slow down or faster, such as change the speed to 60% of the normal speed,etc.
I know iMovie 06 has this function,it's in video FX,duration,speed...but I can't find the menu in iMovie08.
Is there anyone knows where it is?
many thanks!

Upgrade to iMovie 06.
Slow / Fast Motion is easy with iMovie 06.
iMovie 06 is a free download to iLife 08 owners. (THEY WANT YOU TO HAVE IT!)

Much has been written about the differences between iMovie 06 and iMovie 08. I have found the below link to be helpful.

the format is CSV, i try to explain better what i'm doing.
our client asked to save acquisition data with header description in an excel readable format, i've decided to use .CSV and not .TDM because it's a simple txt file and we never used .TMD but i will propose to use it.
after some research on the internet i've found nothing to handle .CSV in CVI except from this csv_parse but i've found it difficult to be maintained so i've write it by my own hand.
i've written two example of how to use my function to read or write and i've copyed my function used to read and write.
in the write function i check with FindPattern if the string to be write contain some special character, if i find this i have to quote the string to respect the standard RFC4180 and if i find a quote i have to double it. aftere i've done this check i write the line in the file.
in the read function, that is more complicated, i:
check if the first character is a quote.
if it's not i copy the string until the delimitier or until the end of the line.
if it is i have a string with special character inside so:
i find the first quote in the string. when i've found i check if it's follwed by another quote. this means that in the starting message i was writing a single quote.
if it's not followed by another quote but it's followed by a delimiter or a carriage return i've finished the special line.
if i don't find it it means that the special quote have a carriage return inside and i have to check the next line. before checking the next line i save this in my string.
after this loop i check in every string if i have a double quote and i delete one.
the main problem is in the speed of this, i'm acquiring data at 1000 S/s with 8 active channel for 60 second so i have 480000 data to be stored, divided in 60.000 row and 8 column. to read a file like that my pc stay "locked" for 15 second or more.
i've tried to use the arraytofile function and it's extremly fast and i can also put header because the function can start from the last position in the file but the filetoarray function start from the beginning and i cannot read the header correctly. also if i'm using the european CSV with semicolon as delimiter with arraytofile i cannot select the semicolon but only the coma

Can I adjust the speed of my video clips?

I would like to use slow motion and fast motion in the movie I'm making with iMovie '08, but I cannot figure out how. I am positive I was able to adjust the speed of clips in iMovie '06, but I just can't find where/how to do it in iMovie '08. Have I lost my mind or has this option been eliminated in iMovie '08?
And as a bonus question, if it has been eliminated, WHY?

I was able to adjust the speed of clips in iMovie '06, but I just can't find where/how to do it in iMovie '08. Have I lost my mind or has this option been eliminated in iMovie '08?
You can within iMovie HD. You can't from within '08. (You can pre-edit a clip for fast or slow motion externally.)
And as a bonus question, if it has been eliminated, WHY?
It is not so much a question of why it might have been deliberately eliminated but a question of how to add it to iMovie '08. As has been said hundreds, if not thousands, of times already, this is an entirely new application editing in an completely new manner. Motion changes require re-rendering of the file to use it in a project. iMovie '08 does not do any rendering until the project (i.e., which is merely a set of instructions) is actually completed. In case you haven't noticed, none of the third-party special effect "plug-ins" are compatible with iMovie '08 either. Your best bet is to either use iMovie HD (v6.0.4 available free online to iLife '08 users). It is either that or learn how to create such effects externally with other applications like the JES Deinterlacer (free) or QT Pro ($30).

Can you record the audio from a Video embedded in a pdf?

I can't seem to find anything on this, so I will ask. A client sent us a company produced interactive pdf and wants us to use the audio from a video clip that is in the pdf. We asked for the audio clip but they don't know who to get it from and just keep saying it is in the pdf. While others try to explain that a pdf and an mp3 are not the same thing. I get to look into a fall back position of trying to extract the audio (or video). There is no copyright issue here. Client peon just can't/won't get the proper file.
Maybe some one can help or point me to info that says it is not possible.
Thanks.

WireTap Studio did the trick. I downloaded a free Trial version and bob's yer uncle.
Thanks Michael

How can you increase the speed with a slider

I have been trying to work at this for about a week and a
half. I browsed several communities but it seems that noone has an
answer so I am not even sure if this is possible I am not a flash
expert but what I am trying to do is as follows;
I have a movie with several movie clips. I have an animation
of a female walking, I also have a slider that when I move it to
the right bags are added on to her. but what I am also trying to
accomplish is to have her walk faster as the slider moves to the
right.
I tried several scripts but they seem not to work as I wan
them to plus they start to cancel out the bag function.
How could I make this happen if it is even possible. I want
to use the slider to increase the speed of the lady walking. Slider
and Lady are movie clips.
thanks in advance

At present I'm not aware of any way to achieve this exact effect in Muse (where the first screen of a web page is resized to fill the browser window and the rest of the page, as you scroll down, appears to be fixed height layout).

Can You Edit And Export 60 fps Video With iMovie 10.0.5?

So the new iPhone 6 and 6 Plus let you shoot video at 60 fps, right?
Well, my question is, can iMovie 10.0.5 for the Mac let you actually edit and export this video, maintaining its 60 fps frame rate?

I posted what I found to this thread iMovie 11 10.14 Exporting a 60fps file to Maverick?
Hope you find it helpful.

Can Motion alter the speed of a video clip?

Or must this be done in FCP?
I want to speed up a clip.

You can alter the FPS in the media pane, or play with the scrub filter - see: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=635543 for Scot Walker's tip. Or you can use compressor or FCP, but you must send the self contained export/import of FCP to Motion. Timeline speedchanges are ignored.

Can you change the theme color in iMovie for example from its current color of blue to red?

Can you change the color of a theme in iMovie ?- example: the sports theme is set to be blue and I would like it red.

No. And that would be nice in your type of example.
I would recommend that you could TRY to use the "Map, Background & Animatics" earth icon> (next to transitions tool tab), scroll down> add RED background, and ADD Transitions inside some. That might help your example out.
Hope this helps. Cheers

Can you extract the audio from a music video?

Some of my favorite songs were purchased from Itunes as music videos. (Because they are also my favorite videos.) Now I'm trying to figure out how to move those songs to the iPod +without having to buy the songs as just songs!+ It's been very frustrating. "Create iPod or iPhone version" doesn't convert to anything useful for a Shuffle. How do I extract the audio from the video?
Or do I have to buy the same music over again?

Hello RoyFeni,
And welcome to Apple Discussions!
Can you change the music video's *Media Type* to Music from under the Options tab of the *Get Info* window for the track in iTunes?
I'm not sure if you can, but hey its at least worth a try. It's all I have though.
Otherwise, this is not possible via iTunes. The only way you would be able to extract the audio is through the help of some third party application. Not sure how simple or complicated the process is.
