Changing frame rate when exporting from iMovie '09 using quicktime has no impact on duration.  Why?

Changing frame rate when exporting from iMovie '09 using quicktime has no impact on duration.  Why?
I have a file created by digitizing an 8mm film at a rate of 24 fps. I would like to create a downloaded movie at a frame rate of 15 fps.  The Export using Quicktime option seems to provide that capability but the resulting file has the same duration as the original 24 fps file.  How can I get the exported movie to be slowed down?

joegez,
There is a feature you can use to slow down the video. In the project, move the mouse pointer over the clip, then click the gear icon. That brings up the Inspector. Click the Clip tab. Then you will see a feature there called Speed. Move the slider to the left to slow down the clip. Or you can enter a percentage in the box on the right.
Hope this solves the problem for you.

  • IDVD Stops Responding when Exporting from iMovie

    I'm using iDVD and iMovie (from iLife 06 and fully up to date) on a MacPro (also up to date on all software, MacOSX, Quicktime etc).
    This proceedure has worked before several times but now results in a non-responding iDVD every time I try it, including an archive and re-install and a complete new install of OSX and all software on a new partition.
    What I'm doing.....
    [1] Recording a TV programme on EyeTV (410) and exporting it to iMovie - sucessful every time
    [2] Edit the iMove project and add chapter markers and save project - no problem.
    [3] Export to iDVD - iDVD shows exporting in progress and whilst this is still showing iDVD launches
    [4] iDVD starts playing the music from a std theme for a few seconds and then stops. Then resumes the music after resizing the window and then after a couple of more seconds freezes. From the Dock I can see that iMove and iDVD are "not responding"
    [5] Eventually iMovie completes it's "export" and then starts responding normally. iDVD continues to show as non responding although I can move the window around the screen. I have to force quit iDVD to get it to close down.
    I have tried:
    Re-exporting the project from EyeTV
    Deleting the preferences files for iMove and iDVD
    Deleting the iLife suite and re-installing
    Doing an OSX archive and re-install
    Installing a fresh OSX (10.4.8) on a different drive and installing fresh software
    Running Disk Utility - clean bill of health on both drives
    Repaired permissions
    The Console reports the following errors when exporting from iMove to iDVD:

    Result - problem persists. I'm at a loss as what to do next. Any suggestions greatfully received.

    Yes, tried that when I deleted the preferences. Disk Utility did not report any permissions needed repairing.
    What really mystifies me is that this export to iDVD did work once and I expected it to resume once I'd created a fresh OSX install along with all the iLife apps on a new partition, but it remained the same!
    Perhaps there is some sort of other software conflict going on? I have Adobe CS2, MS Office, Toast and FMP installed all are latest editions. On the utilities front I have installed Stuffit Deluxe, Internet Cleanup, Contour USB controller for video editing and a LogicTech wireless trackball. Again all the drivers are the latest releases.
    Does anyone know if there are any preferences associated with the other not responding applications listed in my other post that I could try the delete-reboot trick on?

  • When exporting from Imovie I get the following error? OSStatus error -2009

    when exporting from Imovie I get the following error? OSStatus error -2009

    Hi
    Apple Support pages says.
    Error 2000-2009 (2001, 2002, 2005, 2006, 2009, and so on)
    If you experience this issue on a Mac, disconnect third-party devices, hubs, spare cables, displays, reset the SMC, and then try to restore. If you are using a Windows computer, remove all USB devices and spare cables other than your keyboard, mouse, and the device, restart the computer, and try to restore. If that does not resolve the issue, try the USB issue-resolution steps and articles listed for Error 1604 above. If the issue persists, it may be related to conflicting security software.

  • Please help. When exporting a 720p video using Quicktime Conversion in FCP it saves some extra temporary files to my computer. The file is called ICMMultiPassStorage. This file gets so large that eventually the program and exporting process crashes.

    Please help. When exporting a 720p video using Quicktime Conversion in FCP it saves some extra temporary files to my computer. The temporary file it saves is called ICMMultiPassStorage. This file gets so large that eventually the program and exporting process crashes. I have been able to locate the file using GrandPerspective and close out of FCP to delete it. But when I try exporting the movie again it creates the ICMMultiPassStorage file again. I have made sure my scratch disks are set to my external hard drive so I know that isn't the issue. How do I fix this problem so these temporary files are not being stored on my internal hard drive instead of my external?Thanks!

    Try exporting the timeline "using current settings" via Make QuickTime Movie, then submit that clip to Compressor for the transcode. This should be faster and less painful.

  • No sound when exporting from imovie 3,03

    After having read most of the posts related to sound troubles, I still can't figure out why I can't get any sound when I export from imovie 3,03.
    I almost know the entire dan slagle site, and checked every button to play with, I've tried many export or preferences settings (including various depths or rates) but got no result at all.
    Surprisingly, when I grab the .mov file to some converters (ffmpegx), the expected audio part looks to be there, but remains silent (for me, meaning all of the bits at 0).
    Don't hesitate to require additional info - thanks to prompt answers

  • Idvd pixelated when exported from imovie

    DVD looks great on imac but dvd is pixelated once exported from imovie and put on dvd using IDVD.
    Any suggestions

    Welcome to the forums, Alison.
    I'm not a GarageBand user, but couldn't you export the GB audio tracks as a Quicktime file, and then import that audio track into iMovie? If it's combined in iMovie, then it should import into iDVD without a conceptual hitch.

  • No audio when exporting from iMovie

    I am trying to export my HD movie from imovie in HD size format 1280x720, when I do I am not getting any audio. Is there something that I am missing, a mute check box or special setting? I have looked everywhere but just cant figure it out.

    This is speculation on my part so take it with a grain of salt.
    But first you have to realize that iMovie renders the entire movie, effects, music, transitions, photos, etc. in one pass. If you use Final Cut Express or Final Cut Pro, you can render a sequence, or render a nest of sequences. You can create a much longer movie this way without taxing your machine.
    Secondly, the Intel architecture has a graphics processor that offloads a lot of the heavy lifting to a video chip or video card. On a PowerPC (RISC) architecture, everything goes through the CPU.

  • Multiple problems when exporting 16:9 HDV using Quicktime Conversion

    Hello,
    I am trying to export a 41-minute long video so that I can post it online. It is in 16:9 HDV Widescreen format, and the computer I am using is an iMac G5 2.1Ghz PowerPC with 2.5GB of RAM. I've been having the following issues so far:
    1. It doesn't export the entire video when exporting to WMV. It stops after only a few minutes of exporting, and then when I check it to see how it came out, only the first few minutes of my video are there.
    2. When exporting using Quicktime Conversion to being an actual Quicktime file (.mov), it starts but then it stops at 7% and the "Estimated Time" increases from "about 2 minutes", to "about 5 hours"...and then THAT increases a few minutes later to "about 7 hours". I've already increased my memory to 2.5GB (which unfortunately is the most amount that my computer can fit).
    3. So far, for .mov, .divx, .wmv, .m4v, and .mp4, I've been having a lot of trouble trying to figure out the exact settings that I should be using for 16:9 widescreen (dimensions, formats, etc). A lot of times, the video has become 4:3, with the video itself stretched from top to bottom (it looks very weird like that).
    Any ideas on what I should do?
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    I have the same problem and I can't believe Apple did not think about that. Each time I'm doing a 16:9 movie, it doesn't work with QuickTime conversion.
    Read this site, it might help you. I'm gonna try the solution they're talking about.

  • TA22866 Error -40 when exporting from imovie?

    I am trying to get an old movie I created off an old imac from 2000.
    When I export it to quicktime in "Medium quality", it works ok.
    When I export it to quicktime in "Hiigh quality", it exports and creates the file but when I try to open it in quicktime or drag it to a USB thumb drive, it cannot do either one and says an error -40 has occurred.  Can anyone help?  I really want to get this movie off the old imac and not in medium quality.
    Thanks!

    Thank you for the suggestion. I had stopped trying to use iMovie '09 at all for several days, then went back to it to try creating a movie from a different original source material, one that I had successfully exported movies from in the past (a Kodak Zi6). To my surprise, I got the same error as the one I got from my quicktime generated mp4's.
    When this occurs, it seems to almost complete the encoding process. I can see a file on disk, that grows to about the size that the final export movie should be. I even created a hardlink to that file so that when iMovie '09 errors out, I still have a copy of the exported movie. However, there is something about the metadata on the file that inhibits my ability to even open it with Quicktime.
    When I attempt to use "open movie.mp4" at the command-line, it immediately errors out with:
    Some files were not found for the file /Volumes/gks/Pictures/HCRO/timelapse/eno-titles-backup.mp4.
    I'm unfamiliar with fixing up these sorts of metadata forks on macosx, but suspect this is fixable after the fact.
    Also, it turns out that your suggestion to lower the bit rate to 2500-5000 was helpful! I've been able to export movies using the lower bit rate. This is rather unfortunate though as the lower quality is notable... sigh.
    So, it appears that this is an issue with iMovie '09 interacting with the quicktime codec for H.264.

  • Sample clock rate when exporting from Matlab

    Hi all,
    I'm quite new with Labview and got stuck with (probably) some basics. I try to use a data vector generated by Matlab as an output with PCI-6115 (see the pic). I use "read from spreadsheet" VI. Everything works fine but I cannot change the sample clock rate. I wanted to use 100 000 kHz for this (binary) output but I only get 1 Hz which is some default value. The "DAQmx timing" VI which I'm using shows "uses the dt component of the waveform input to determine the sample clock rate". I find this dt inside the "DAQmx timing" but nothing happens when changing. Any help is greatly appreciated!

    Do you see those red coercion dots on the inputs of the DAQmx Timing and DAQmx Write? They mean that you are using an incorrect data type. A 1D array has no timing information. The waveform data type includes a dt value and this is required to set the sample rate of the DAQ card. If you don't have this in the text file, you cannot automatically provide it. The Read From Spreadsheet cannot automatically create a waveform data type even if the file does contain dt information. Since you did not attach the text file you are reading, no way of knowing if your problem goes all the way back to Matlab or somewhere else.
    In the future, please think about what information you should provide. As mentioned, the text file is important. It's also hard to debug an image. Attaching the actual code or a snippet is much better. A snippet is a png file that can be imported into LabVIEW as actual code. It's an option under the Edit menu in LabVIEW 2009.

  • Distorted Audio when exporting from iMovie 11

    In iMovie 11 the edited movie sounds fine. But when the movie is exported to the media browser or Vimeo, the audio is distorted. It sounds like gain has been set way too high. I have used this version iMovie a lot and have never encountered this problem. Ideas?

  • Why don't I get any sound when export from imovie to quicktime DVD

    Help. I am a new imovie user so hope not being stupid. am using G4 powerbook with OS X 10.3.9. imovie 3.0.3 and quick time 7.1.2. Have made 2 films so far - first exported fine into quicktime with sound. Second exports but without any sound. This film is 5 mins long. It plays fine in imovie, and if exported as low quality for web also records sound (when 188 kg), but big version for DVD gives the problem. thanks for any advice. Sue

    Hi Sue: (Nice name)
    Welcome to discussions!
    It may be that your quicktime is not getting along well with you OS X version...try to revert back to another version of quicktime (BUT- I don't know if this will work with your current QuickTime though)

  • Problem with the sound when exporting from imovie

    I made a movie in imovie 09. I added music as backgroud and faded the original sounds of the movie to 0%. Everything looks and sounds good when I play the movie in imovie. However when I export the movie (because I want to burn it on a disk) the original sounds/noise comes back in some parts of the movie. How is this possible? I export the movie to Quicktime and to iDVD and it gives the same problem. Does anyone knows a sollution?

    I have just found out that the correct word for "drawing area" is "artboard" in the English language Illustrator version. I use a German language Illustrator, so I'm sorry for misunderstandings concerning this term.
    I have made an Illustrator file that should demonstrate the problem but was not able to find the correct place for bugs in the Production suite at the issue tracker. Would be "Project Nile" the place to put the bug at?
