Capturing video into Sony Vegas and s video doesn't funct

I can capture video from a DVD player through the ZS2 by feeding through the composite cables, but not s video. Feeding into the firewire port with a digital video camera works fine. However, I have to capture into Ulead, then move the clips into Sony Vegas where I want to edit. If I try to capture directly into Vegas there is some conflict keeping the program from loading, or it locks up the computer and I have to shut off the computer to get out. Also, I can't find what the cmss button is for.

Hi,
To capture video using the A2 VE you'll need to use Ulead to do the initial capture. Once done and the video is on the PC you can then use your preferred Video creation tools to manipulate the file(s).
Hope this hel

I imported an hour of video into iMovie HD and cut it down to a 33 sec clip, and emptied the trash. When I save the project, the file size is 20Gb. How can I save just the 33 sec clip?

Non-destructive editing is an important feature of iMovie HD 6.
iMovie preserves the entire copy of every clip you place into your movie in case you change your mind at a later stage.
So, if you have cut out one minute from a 45 minute clip, iMovie will have stored two complete copies of that clip. This is why is helps to set import as 3-5 minute clips rather than one huge chunk. As DV runs at 13GB per hour your project files can get very big.
One workaround is to complete the editing of a section of the movie, then export that to Quicktime: highlight the clip/s, choose Share-Quicktime, turn on Share selected clips only, and choose Full Quality from the pop-ip menu.
Once you have saved the stand-alone clip to your hard drive, you can re-import it into your project using the File/Import command, and delete the original long clip/s from the project.

My MacBook will not play videos. No sound and the video stops after a few seconds.

Hello GrahamBIOM,
I understand while viewing a video or listening to some different content, you lose audio, is that correct? I will do all I can to assist you with this issue.
Does the issue occur when you have headphones inserted? If you are not sure, if you have a set of headphones available could you test that please?
Please respond back at your earliest convenience with results.
Thanks

Can't import video from Sony HDR cx550v without video aliasing. Tried multiple settings in capture settings but doesn't seem to change log and transfer settings in FCS.

I tried importing into Imovie but it will only let me in Large format not Full. There has to be a way to import full 1920 x 1080/60i in Final Cut right?

Make sure you are watch your clip in QuickTime 7, not QuickTime X.
Open the file in QuickTime 7, and go to the menu QuickTime Player 7 > Preferences and make sure you have
Use high-quality video setting when available, and Enable Final Cut Studio Color Compatibility are checked.
When you view the clip in the Viewer in Final Cut Pro, you will generally see some degradation to the video unless you have the Viewer (and/or Canvas) set to display at 100% magnification. You may need to resize your windows if you set the viewer to that size.

When I import new home videos into my iTunes and edit the names it creates duplicate Library's on my Apple Tv. How can I stop this from happening each time I edit a name in iTunes home videos??

I am having an issue with duplicate Libraries showing up in my Home Sharing "Home Videos". It happens when I import home videos into iTunes and change the names of the files. How do I avoid this from happening and delete the duplicate libraries?

The sort fields should generally be empty unless you've putting in custom values to sort solo artists by their surnames. You can apply common changes to thousands of tracks at once, just don't apply the wrong change because there is no undo.
It is a good idea to backup before undertaking large scale changes. See this backup tip for a suggested approach.

I would consider sharing one or more of the following when asking for help:
Souce footage codec, pixel dimensions
Sequence codec & pixel dimensions
How are you exporting it?
What kind of file are you ending up with? codec, size, etc.

Simple Instructions for pasting video into IDVD 3 and burning DVD?

Many times I have tried to paste a video file into iDVD 3 and then tried to burn but it does not work, you click the burn icon in iDVD and it does not ask for a disk. I have a 700MB video file, it is in .avi originally but I can convert it to a different file type if needed, what file types burn in iDVD? And how do you paste the video file into iDVD 3 properly so it will burn? Because I must of been doing something wrong. I have -R disks.

Hi
iDVD 3 - is rather old and
iDVD 3 (2003)
• Chapter markers can be added
• Menu themes that can be adapted to movie
Need Mac OS X.1.5 or rather X.2.2
.avi - is most probably the problem as it is no video format - but a container
Containers:
.avi, .mov, .mp4, .m4v, .wmv etc - are no video format/codecs but containers
Formats/Codecs:
MPEG-4, H.264, AIC, streamingDV and many more are Codecs - this can or can not be opened by iMovie, iDVD or FinalCut so this info is important.
So convert the codec inside it to streamingDV .dv or to AIC and You can import it into iDVD from File Menu down to Import.
To find out what's in the .avi container
- Open it with QuickTime-player and here
- open Inspector (cmd+I) and
- read Video Format/Codec: nnnnnnnn
What does it read ?
As I remember it - Yours Bengt W

How can I burn a Motion Video into a dvd and keep the same quality?

I tried exporting my Motion video into Quick time but the quality is horrible. The images and text are blurry.
How can I export this video into a DVD or CD and keeping the best quality of the video?
Would Appreciate someones help.
Thank you

Try this - export the Motion file as an animation and import into FCP - then apply color correction, if necessary. Then push it through Compressor and onto DVD.....
Hope that helps.

On my pc I used Sony Vegas to edit video, what's a similar program I could use on a Mac??

I used Sony Vegas on my desktop PC, and I got it free when I was in college from our online downloads website...but now that I graduated last year, And just now got a Mac, I was wondering what the cheapest alternative would be for Sony Vegas. I don't really like the imovie so far compared to it just because Sony did a ton of stuff and I miss it. Can anyone help me out?
Thank you.

Heh, heh, welcome to the Real World, where Adobe practically rapes you for everything but the free Reader plugin. Yes, you'l remember fondly the fun and carefree days when good stuff was on the campus server...
If you've still got the Vegas installer at hand, could try and set up a virtual PC running an appropriate flavor of Windoze and run it there. Oracle VirtualBox is free, you'll just have to supply your Windows activation and install media.

Sony Vegas and MPEG4

Can Sony Vegas 7 edit the MPEG4 video files recorded from 5th gen nano, or does it need a plugin?
Thanks in advance

IPad Video app mixes Movies and Home Video Kinds

In iTunes I have videos that are of 'Video Kind' Movie and also 'Video Kind' Home Video. These show up nicely on the AppleTV, segregated according to their "Kind". On my iPad Air, however, the Video app mixes them all together under its heading of "Movies" when I use Home Sharing to access my iTunes Library from the iPad.
How can I get my Home Videos to be distinguished from my Movies on the iPad?
(And, is there any way to have the title show up on the thumbnail page? In combination I have thousands of shows and it's hard to tell what's what!)

Hello Brian,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like you’re running into an issue playing iTunes Store content on your iPad Air, and you’ve already tried restarting the device and syncing the movies a second time. If you haven’t already, try backing up and restoring the device as shown in the article linked below.
Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings - Apple Support

Boot into safe mode and touschscreen doesn't work.

Hey, so, I ran a program that would reboot my Toshiba Encore into Safe Mode and in Safe Mode the touchscreen is non-functional. Whenever I try to shut down the Encore and turn it back on, it always goes back into Safe Mode and I can't do anything.
Please help!
Thanks,
M260.

Ooh. That is a bluetooth device is it ? I suspect the tablet does not have a bluetooth driver in safemode.
If not, you should follow Padgett's suggestion.
If you do not have one, pop in to a phone shop and get an OTG cable. Then visit your neighbours and ask if you can borrow a USB keyboard and / or mouse for 15 minutes. Even if you can only find a USB mouse, you can open a file explorer, find your way to C:\Windows\System32, click on msconfig and you will be back in business in minutes.

I need a video capture device for downloading Band and family video tapes.

Hi, I need to download some old video tapes before they turn to dust. Are there any fairly inexpensive video capture devices that work well with the Imac?
Thanks

Are they VHS video cassettes or something like 8MM camcorder tapes?
If they're camcorder tapes, usually it's best to try to buy an old video camera (MUST have FIREWIRE port).
Then you can play the tape in the camera and capture from the Firewire. Also important, if you have a 2010 (maybe 2009?) or newer iMac, you'll need a cable that is Firewire 400 to fit the camera at one end and Firewire 800 at the other end to connect to the iMac.

Photoshop CC will not import any video files when I try Video Frame to Layers and New Video Layer from File

Specifically I'm trying to import a .MOV I made in Quicktime. The file opens up everywhere else so it's not an issue with the file being corrupted. The error message I get from CC is
"Could not complete command _____________ because the video file could not be opened."
As far as I know I didn't save the .MOV with any permissions, but then again I have very limitted understanding of Quicktime. Originally the file was a .GIF that I converted to an .MOV because I wanted to edit the GIF using the video timeline instead of the animation timeline.
Thanks for the help.
Also, as an aside since I know a lot of Adobe employees are on here, the animation timeline is pretty crummy, there should be a way that you can open a .GIF into the video timeline as a video layer.

Did the back and forth between PC and Mac file systems screw up my files somehow?
Yes. Unfortunately the move has almost certainly caused the loss of the resource data that would have been (invisibly) attached to those files.
By adding a specific .mov extension after the fact you will have helped the Mac correctly identify the file type / asscoiations but also significantly you will have physically changed the filename eg from "clip" to "clip.mov". This means that when you come to reconnect the media in FCP , then FCP will be looking for files that no longer exist at the given path eg when specifically looking for our example clip called "clip" of course it won't find it.
Try this as a test... first remove the ".mov" extension from one or more of the clips, select those clips and press Cmd-Opt-I to open an Info window for the selection. You'll see an "Open with:" popup and in that popup you should choose QuickTime Player (if its a Unix Executable then it will initially list Terminal as the appropriate app, you have to choose Other... then in the open dialog choose Enable > All Applications and then navigate to and select the Quicktime Player app as the appropriate app). After you've done that restart FCP and see if you can now reconnect to those clips.

I emailed a youtube video while on FaceBook and now safari doesn't load any images - screen is completely blank and I've tried lots of websites. What happened?

My screen is completely blank while on Safari despite having tried many websites. This happened while I was logged into Facebook and had emailed a YouTube video that was posted on a friend's page. Settings seem to be fine. Images still load when I'm on my email, photos, youtube, etc. What to try next?

Have you tried resetting your iPod:
Reset iPod touch: Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
