Cannot export slow motion w/o ghost images

Hello everyone,
The home movies and video works in my computer look exactly as I want them to and they export to QuickTime perfectly in "DV Full Quality." My problem is that the movies export both to the camera and to the DVD burner with awful ghost imagery in the slow motion clips. With my earlier version of iMovie, the slow motion rendered just fine to the camera, so I could at least create VHS tapes to share with family and friends. Now the movies export with the jittery ghost images. Color and sound are fine, it's just the slow motion that creates a problem. I'm so frustrated cuz I upgraded to solve the problem and I feel like my works are "trapped" in my computer--I just want to send videos and DVDs to family! IF I upgrade (again) to a new computer (G5?) or the latest Toast, will this solve the problem? Is there anything that can be done? Please know that I am a novice in computer language and need to be spoken to like a small, small child... Sorry for the length of this complaint and THANK YOU for any help!

Hello Bengt!
Well, as it turns out, I don't have iDVD (or whatever it is I need to activate iDVD in iMovie...), but, as I was trying to find it, up popped the prompt I was looking for and had tried to find in the iMovie "help" thingie -- "you have some slow motion clips that need to be rendered, ..." and my problems are now solved!
So, I couldn't follow your advice exactly, but, because I tried, the solution presented itself unexpectedly.
Thank you, thank you! I don't have to buy a new computer (today)

Export slow motion from my 5s.

Hi there. I would know how to export slow-motion videos from my phone 5s to my computer without losing any quality.

I wouldn't change applications against a deadline.
Slow motion is not an easy effect to do in post unless you shot more frames per second than you needed for standard speed. Making 30 frames a second into 60 frames requires each frame to be printed twice. What were your expectations or what have your tried before?
Especially with HDV, which starts out so heavily compressed, by the time it gets slomo'd and transcoded back to MPEG2 again, yeah, I imagine it's gonna look pretty bad. You can obtain some expensive software to do the optical flow pixel interpretation without buying FCS2 but that's up to your client's needs for smooth slow motion. Rendering optical flow, we've heard, takes for freakin' ever, even on the best machines.
Some HDV users will chime in over the next few hours or days with more helpful advice.

Cannot stop slow motion (slo-mo) capture on iPhone 6 plus

On my iPhone 6 plus I have been done a little bit of recording using the slow-motion mode. I'm able to do this successfully when the length of the clip is 10-20 seconds. One time the recording exceeded perhaps 1-2 min, then I cannot stop the recording. Finally I turned off the phone and lost the recording. Is this a known problem? Any suggestions?

Having a simlar issue. I recorded video on at 240 fps on my 6 Plus. The video went into the "slo mo" folder and has the gear icon thing in the corner indicating it was captured that way. When I try to play the videos back on my iPhone they play at a normal 30 fps. There is no slider to adjust the speed. I have NOT sync'd with iTunes at all. I shot the video and and tried to play it back about an hour later. I tried restarting the iPhone but that did not help.

Cannot export a Motion JPEG A quicktime

I'm working with FCP v 6.0.2 and Compressor v3.0.2. I am unable to export quicktimes in the MJPEGA codec. I currently have verison 7.4.1 of quicktime. Is this something new to v7.4?

Hi There
I have this exact same problem now I have updated my final cut to the latest version hoping that it would fix some bugs, instead creating new ones. As you seem to have fixed it, would you mind letting me know how its possible to get back the export to motion jpeg A within final cut?
Thanks in advance

Cannot export using motion

I am trying to export a clip i just created in motion but it will not work. I click on export but the window that is supposed to pop up doesnt show up. what do i do? i really need this clip exported a.s.a.p. Is there any other way to get this clip to a video file?

You've got a deadline and you're using software that you have no idea how to use?
Open the folder containing your Motion project. Open Final Cut Pro. Pick up the Motion project with your mouse. Drag it into Final Cut Pro's browser window. Use it like any other movie.

Camileo X200: poor quality using Slow Motion

When I select Slow Motion function (snail) the image is seen with very poor quality and with noise.
It is as if the camcorder was defective.

Could this be helpful?
+Why do I have a "Blurry Picture" on my Camileo Camera?+

Check if Macro-Modus" is activated. In such case disable this.

Exporting to mpeg WITHOUT rendering Slow MOtion Effects -Any loophole ???

I have made 2 clips in my timeline slow motion - 20%. In preview
mode when I play back in my timeline the effect looks slow and image
looks great. As soon as I render it - the images become in and out of focus
and looks crummy.
Is there any way for me to export and keep this portion in preview mode
(so it does not render) ? It just looks much better when its not fully rendered...
any loophole to this?

Maybe.
Probably the reason you're getting the effect you're seeing in preview is that Motion is dropping frames to do RT. If you ctrl-click on your sequence and select "Settings...", go to the Render Control tab, and set Frame Rate: to say 50% of Sequence Editing Timebase, that might help you...

Slow motion 50% export H.264 MOV (at half frame rate)

Hi,
I'm using a QuickTime MOV file (H.264, 1080p/59.94fps, 15 seconds) and have set slow motion to 50% (= 30 seconds).
Can anyone confirm that when I export this clip to 29.97fps I won't lose frames?
I have Compressor and think I found nearly all required settings except:
- Key frames - shall I use automatic or 24 or what? (How can I find out what the original key frame value was?)
- Frame reordering - shall I uncheck this option? (What does it mean? It's not in the manual.)
Many thanks!

If you want to make absolutely sure you won't lose frames, you should manually set a project to 29.97fps, import your 60/59.94fps and conform the video (Retime menu > Conform Speed [the retime menu is the 2nd one from the left over the effects browser area/under the inspector area]). FCPX will automatically frame for frame adjust the video to fit to the slower frame rate.
Key frames (video compression, not animation): a key frame is a complete image -- 100% pixels in use. Every frame between the key frames are only the parts of the image that change from the last frame (like Cel animation). Setting Automatic allows the software to make the best choices of when and where to create a complete frame. Otherwise, you can experiment with different values (up to All, which is pretty much no compression) to see what kinds of results you get and the overall quality (use very short pieces, like 5 -10 seconds.) High motion areas in video are always going to be the most challenging with respect to compression (particularly bitrate), so... it's worth figuring out what settings you like that will give the best results (and 5-10second clips don't take that long to render.) I generally use Automatic and adjust the bitrates to give the best overall results (which occasionally requires testing segments.)
Frame reordering: allows applications to "decompress" video frames in a different order than they are played, thereby allowing those apps that understand it a way to work faster. Larry Jordan suggests that this setting always be set for H.264 video (although I don't if I'm uploading to YouTube -- I try not to give YouTube any excuses for recompressing my video, so I try to have it already optimized before uploading... so far, it seems to be working.)

Cannot export my D800 images out of lightroom, message reads not enough memory. Anyone any ideas how

Slow motion exporting problems

Hi there I had posted a topic with this same problem a couple of weeks ago and got some great suggestions, but unfortunately have to report that nothing has worked! I have tried deinterlacing, got a plugin from the net which was meant to have smoothed the slow motion, all looks well in the FCP and also in the exported quicktime, so does anyone know why it looks terrible when I watch the dvd back?
an example is that Someone took a photo of the couple I was filming, the flash looks square! And when I moved the camera around while filming, the edges of people look square. Have an idea it may be something to do with pixels, but I dont know what!
I am really at my wits end trying to find solutions and am about ready to fire my mac out the window! Can anyone help and save the mac?

It depends on the formats you import. Are you slowing your footage down -100%? make sure you have constant speed checked. Maybe your time remapping it.

Why cannot any longer do "slow motion" gesture with 2 fingers of videos in iPhoto 9.2

When I view or upload files (such as on You Tube) there is no longer normal image movement. All action has a "strobe" effect as in slow motion, but audio seems normal. Is this a plug-in problem?

All of a sudden when I view a file that's been downloaded, or viewed on line, whether in Windows Media, or on You Tube on line site, or Power DVD Play program, the image appears as if it was in a slow motion "strobe" effect, while the audio sounds consistent, (barring the frequent stalls). If I burn a DVD, it has the slow motion strobe effect burnt into the disc as well & is difficult to view on a DVD player. Is this a plug-in problem that has suddenly manifested, and is there a way of getting the system back to it's normal operation??
== This happened ==

== Since about 2 weeks ago.

Hello Joe.
Try disabling all add-ons (that's extensions, plugins and themes, go into ''Tools > Add-ons'') except for Flash and see if the problem persists. If they don't, enable one add-on at a time until you find the problem. If they do, try a new [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Managing+profiles Firefox profile] and see if it has the same issues. If it does (make sure other plugins aren't enabled), you need to contact Adobe for support on their Flash plugin ([https://www.mozilla.com/en-US/plugincheck/ updating] it will be the first thing they tell you to do). If it doesn't, please tell me.

H.264 export from AVCHD source results in slow-motion video; any ideas?

Hello, I'm trying to export a 1080i project with AVCHD footage using the H.264 Bluray profile. The resulting video looks good, but runs in slow motion. The starting footage is AVCHD 1440x1080 (1.333). When I export using the MPEG2 Bluray profile, everything runs fine. Thank you for any suggestions.

Thanks for your reply. My source footage consists of MTS files from an AVCHD camcorder. The files are 1080i anamorphic, so 1440x1080, with an aspect ration of 1.333 and a framerate of 29.97fps. I used one of the AVCHD sequence templates in Premiere CS5 that matched the video files.
I'm exorting using the H.264 Bluray preset for 1080i. I tried several of the profiles (1080p, etc), but they all end with the same bad result. The video plays, but seems to be playing at half speed. My 15-minute clip takes 30 minutes to play, even though the timline in VLC or WMP reports at 15 minutes. The audio sounds fine, but stops after 15 minutes (as it should). It's obviously out of sync, since the video is playing at half speed.
I have read a few other articles indicating it might be an issue with the way Premiere is interpreting the interlaced footage from the MTS files? This is beyond my area of knowledge.
When I encode using the MPEG-2 Bluray profile, it works fine. The video playback speed is normal.
My end goal is to edit my MTS files from the camcorder, encode using the H.264 profile, and place in an MKV container for playback on my XBMC-based HTPC. I'm also considering exporting as a high-bitrate MPEG-2, then using another encoder (HandBrake, etc.) to create the x264 MKV. Any other recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

How can slow-motion iphone6 video be exported to imovie on an iMac and retain its slow motion effect ?

how can slow-motion iphone6 video be exported to imovie on an iMac and retain its slow motion effect ?

thx, i can't see where you do that (access the function to slow the motion of a clip). in the help file it says to 'right click' on the clip to access those functions but when i do i get these optios below (no motion, pan, zoom, pan and zoom). i want access the speed/duration sliders.
i would say the function isn't available at all, but i could be looking in the wrong place (although i have tried everything).
thx for your reply.

Odd issue with slow motion and exporting

Hello,
I have a project with footage taken at either 24p or 60i settings on a Canon HF200. I'm using 7.0.1, ProRes 422 selected. Frame size is set to 1920x1080. I'm exporting using the "Share" menu and the Apple TV preset.
The project is divided into sequences. One of these sequences (whose source material shot using the 60i setting) is set to play in slow motion using the "change speed" option set to 50%.
Here's the odd part, to me at least:
When I export just the slow motion sequence of the project, it plays perfectly (good quality, smooth not jerky, no shadows/trails). But when I export all sequences joined together, the slow motion sequence (and just the slow motion sequence) appears stuttery, with trails on every action by the actors.
Another odd bit: when I export just a subset of the project including the slow motion sequence and everything after it, again the slow motion sequence plays as intended, after export. So the problem only occurs if I export the slow motion sequence with anything before it included.
Thanks in advance for any help.

Problem solved, but I'm not sure if it was my re-importing the clips, or un-checking the "frame blending" option that did it. I did both for no particular reason, and one of them worked.
