Clip is tinted in green with DV pal QT

Two clips which are colour corrected in FCP appears fully green after exporting to Quicktime as a DV Pal anamorphic file.
Same clips appear normal when I export them to a QT movie with the original DVC Pro HD settings.
Any ideas what to do ?
Thanks.
DVCPRO HD 720p 25

Result is 16:9 file, not too large and no lines. Just as good as the original.
I find it odd that I have to use QT Pro
Hey Pete. Whatever works…
If you want to try another way, start out by setting up tour FCP project like so:
It will export in the aspect ratio you want.

Open the DV movie in QT pro 7, expert with Apple Pro Ress 422 HQ and interlace ticked.
Then open that in compressor and choose H264 and apply the crop to remove the letterbox.
You wanted a DVD to play back on computers (either in addition to or rather than television play-back). Since H.264 is not a DVD standard, I assume you compressed it once again to make an MPEG-2. That's a lot of generations of compression and lost information: DVPAL>ProRes HQ>H.264>MPEG-2. Much simpler, quicker and higher quality to go directly from DV PAL (or NTSC) to MPEG-2.
Finally, if most of your output will be for computers (including mobile devices) and the Web, try to shoot progressive in the first place.
Good luck.

Trying to add a 45 min clip to a 3 min clip. 45 min clip exports alone just fine, and so does the 3 min clip. Together they export with no final product. Any help?

I've been working on a compilation made up of video clips of my friends' wedding. There are 18 clips all together of the ceremony and random stuff from the wedding. I spent a few days (a couple hours at a time of course) working to get the clips in the proper arrangement with some transitions and volume adjustment. 12 of the clips are of the ceremony alone, and the other 6 are the random stuff. I put all of the ceremony clips together in one project and exported just fine (approx 42 mins). I also put the extras together and exported just fine (approx 3 mins). I duplicated the original ceremony project and added in the extras to have an extended version which is all clips in chronological order (approx 45 mins). I originally tried exporting the extended, but there was no final video. I then tried the ceremony vid and it exported just fine. I then went ahead and tried the extended again but still the same thing, no video. I then tried the extras alone in one clip and it also exported just fine. I would like to have a DVD of the basic ceremony as one selection, and extended version as the other. Can anyone help me with trying to figure out what might be going wrong?
The extended version lets me choose to export just as the other two clips, and just as I've been exporting since I had iMovie 11 (I've uploaded over 100 vids to youtube using the same settings, by sharing with Quicktime.). When the export process is done there's no message, and the video isn't on my desktop which is where I have all of my vids exported to, and when I do a spotlight search all I get is the project file.
Please help, this DVD is very important to my friends (the newly weds) and I, any advice is appreciated, thanks in advance!

Good to hear that you've had some success with the import.
I tried 3 times to do it before I finally changed it to H.264, and it worked on the first try. The quality of the compression was terrible with those settings compared to my standard settings, but I'm just glad it worked.
Rather than Share>Export using QuickTime and then choosing your own settings for H.264, you may get a better result if you simply use the Share>Export Movie option. Alternatively, use the Share>Media Browser option (as I mentioned in my earlier post). You will be presented with a range of sizes to choose from. Depending on your target, it's usually best to select the highest size available, such as Large, HD 720p or HD 1080p. However, for producing a DVD it's best to not go beyond the HD 720p size, as the DVD will be downscaled during encoding to Standard Definition in the appropriate size for either PAL or NTSC.
In my experience, both these options (Export Movie or Media Browser) produce a video file of excellent quality. The files will be in H.264 format and will have the file extension .mov or .m4v depending on the size of the export. I'm assuming that your camera records HD video in AVCHD format.
These files work well with iDVD (or other DVD authoring programs). The export process for the presets is optimised by Apple to produce high quality video files at a reasonable file size. So, selecting a preset may give you a much better result. Choosing your own H.264 settings when using the "Export using QuickTime" method could be why "the compression was terrible". You may have selected a data (bit) rate that was too low. There is always a trade-off between quality and file size when compressing video.
So, to summarise, try one of the Apple presets using either Share>Export Movie or Share>Media Browser.

I have imported a WMA-file in Audio-1 track of PE – still no sound to hear. But I can see the sound in the track. (Like in my video-clip) Therefore I also think it is a setting in PE. Will you be so kind to tell me where I have to look? Because I am no expert. Or is it possible that I have to activate anything in PE? It is first time that I will work with PE 9.
Further information: The original sound of the Mini-DVD is 5:1 surround. After first problem I have changed Nero to export in Stereo, but this did not solve the problem.
Thanks and regards

IMovie 10.0 contains glitch. Clips become tinted red when imported.

Just throwing it out there. You are not alone. It was reported to Apple that some imported clips become tinted red in the newest version. A news article. If you would like to help, does anyone have a work around. I must finish an editing project and I've tried everything. After the first few clips, the rest are red. Tried restarting, quiting and reopening, every setting.

I just found the solution for others experienceing this. It seems it happens most with .mov files. I changed to a mp4 by changing the file extension but iMovie still turned it red. The way I found is to convert it using SmartConverter in the app store for OSX to the iPad option.

POP-UP AD ISSUES whenever I access a new Safari page/tab. The usual blue links have turned green with a double underline. Safari is now annoying the S**T out of me, please help.

Was trying to download a torrent app and somehow accidentally installed an app that allows pop up windows to appear whenever I open a new window or tab in Safari. The usual blue links have all turned green with a double underline and whenever I hover nearby them, ads relevant to the words of the link pop up. Whenever I look at online stores like Mr. Porter, there are pop up icons saying "MORE" that link to supposedly similar products. Can anyone help me remove this problem? I've updated to the latest Mavericks, hence Safari was updated, I've deleted the app that I thought was the issue, I've disabled cookies and pop ups and I've also increased my firewall security, but to no avail. With my minimal knowledge of anything other than the day to day running of my laptop, I'm not really sure what's going on here....

Clips stretched in Canvas view with same footage from previous sequence

I created a 1 minute video to play on a laptop that I've edited down to 30 seconds. This 30 second version will be playing on a television, so I changed the Sequence Presets to "DV NTSC 48Hz" and the QuickTime video settings from "Photo -JPEG" (since I'm using still shots in the video) back to "DV/DVPRO NTSC."
I'm using the exact same clips and essentially duplicated the previous sequence and edited down the clips. But for some reason, the clips appeared stretched in the Canvas with black bars on either side, and it exports the same way as a Quicktime file. I checked the Sequence settings on both the 1 minute and 30 sequence versions, and they are identical. Any idea why the clips would all of a sudden stretch and how to resolve it?
Thanks!

Still images within the sequence are Photo JPEG Quicktime files
Why? FCP can read actual picture files. Just curious. PhotoJPEG at 75%?
so I changed the Sequence Presets to "DV NTSC 48Hz" and the QuickTime video settings from "Photo -JPEG" (since I'm using still shots in the video) back to "DV/DVPRO NTSC."
What was the sequence setting before? Why did you use that setting if your footage was DV?
OK...try this. Explain your workflow. What did you start out with as your settings? Why did you do this? What was your intended workflow?
If you put a DV file into a sequence setting of anything other than DV, the file will adjust to meet those parameters. For example, I edit DVCPRO HD 720p at 960x720. When I drop a DV file into the sequence, it will scale up to 150% so that it fits full screen (with black bars on left and right...200% makes it fill the screen). I have adjusted the settings on the clip.
Now, if I adjusted the SEQUENCE settings, the clip settings remain the same...still 150%...so they will appear large or distorted. You then need to fix each clip until it is right with the sequence. Or fix one and then copy and paste the attributes to the other.
Still, I don't understand why you were in a different preset to begin with. Was the first clip you added to the sequence a PHOTO JPEG still, so the settings adjusted to that?

Uploading video clip to facebook coming up with error sharing photo, what i'm i doing wrong

uploaded video clip to facebook, coming up with "error shring photo", what i'm i doing wrong, or how to upload video clip?

Are you using the facebook app? I had problems with mine loading all the time.. so, I usually use SAFARI now.
Perhaps try ""emailing"" the picture to your facebook wall.. it works so easily and I email my pics to my youtube account and can't believe how quick it's all uploaded... hope this helps :-)

My laptop screen is glitching and it becomes green with lines

THe screen when is moved flickers and the screen turns green with lines. And the laptop will freeze unable to do anything. Then when I shut it off and restart it makes these 3 beeping noises then stops and does these noises again.
it is a bad problem, but can anybody give me an estimate cost to repair this issue? Please and thank you!!!

Those three beeps indicate defective or bad RAM memory. If this is the only problem it is not very expensive (you can even install the RAM yourself), but as the screen is flickering too, I would recommend you to take your Mac to an Apple Store or reseller to see if the logic board is also affected.
The cost depends on the damaged parts. If it is only the RAM, it is not expensive, but if the logic board has to be replaced, it will be very expensive.

I selected a clip in the Project window in iMovie 11, opened the Clip Trimmer for that clip, chose the part of the clip I wanted to keep with the yellow bars, and "trim to Selection" in the menu bar is light grey so I can't complete the edit.
I'm using a MacbookPro so can't right click to highlight (as was suggested in this forum for the same problem) and can't seem to highlight that area. What do I do?

When using the Clip Trimmer, you click DONE to indocate that you are finished.
The Trim To Selection is a great tool and I use it all the time, but you use it in the main project timeline, not the clip trimmer. Just select the frames you want so that the yellow border is around them. Then right-click and select Trim to Selection.

My iphone 4 microphone won't record sound on video clips and doesn't work with Skype

This is the first time I have used the forum. My iphone4 microphone won't record sound on video clips, and won't work with Skype.

I have checked that I have the latest software. I have restarted phone. I am not sure how to perform the other things you mentioned , restore and reset as new... Would I lose any data by doing these? Thanks for the reply.

How can I keep my audio track, delete a short segment of video, and reinsert a new video clip, without changing the audio with the way it lines up with the original video?

If you have either iMovie 09 or iMovie 11 you can do this easily using the Cutaway feature.
Go to iMovie/Preferences and make sure that the Advanced Tools are enabled.
Now you jut drag and drop the 2nd clip onto hte first clip at the frame where you want the Cutaway to start. A popup menu will appear. Choose Cutaway.
Here is a good Tutorial.
If you have iMovie 08, let me know. There is a way to do it, but it is more complex.

I'd still prefer to keep separate user accounts. I never had any issues like this before. The only time I started having a problem was when I was just trying to force empty the trash a few months ago. I came on here looking for a solution and someone posted a way to empty the trash using the terminal. Before then, I hadn't used the terminal for anything--it was just another app in my utilities folder. (None of this has anything to do with having separate user accounts. Plenty of people with kids make second and third user accounts on their laptops so that multiple people can use one laptop, having more than one user on a laptop is not very difficult.) But thank you, I'll try that out and see if it works!

My G5 iMac has a screen color problem. The color is green with lines. What can I do to repar this? Sometimes the screen will freeze and I have to reboot the computer and the screen will be normal for up to 5-6 hours and then suddenly changes back to green

Try running in Safe mode. This leaves out some video drivers. Which results in machine not using advanced video hardware.

Every Other Frame is Blank &Green with MP4 Share

When rendering an imported Motion JPEG OpenDML- AVI clip to MP4, every other frame comes out solid green when played with Quicktime Pro and iTunes, or an iPod. I have no issues with playing the source AVI clip in Quicktime. I have no issue with playing other mp4 clips (h264 compression) in Quicktime. It is only MP4 clips (h264 compression) that have been rendered by PE 7.0 that seem to have this flickering issue. The blank frames are not displayed if the clip is re-imported in to PE 7 or if viewed in SUPER transcoder. I have played with the compatibility setting on the Advanced Export Settings dialog box, but to no avail. Also, this issue does not occur when exporting the project to WMV, but I need MP4 for broad compatibility reasons.
Other details: To be able to import the AVI (an MJpeg from a digital camera) I had to install an additional codec from Main Concept. This allowed the AVI clip to be viewable and playable in Premiere. I have tried to make this project as simple as possible: I trimmed the imported clip to 20 seconds and have no editing or effects, whatsoever. The clip plays fine inside Premiere. WHen I go to share it, I select iPod high quality preset and then render the file. It will not play properly in Quicktime Pro or iTunes. As mentioned, I can play it with SUPER transcoder, but that program is cumbersome and when transcoding the file, it ends up much larger than what Premiere exported.
I run an HP elitebook 8530w with:
Vista downgraded to XP
QX9300 Quadcore @ 2.53 Ghz
4G Ram
Premiere Elements 7.0
Operating System: Windows XP
Browser: Mozilla
Video capture card / driver: NVIDIA Quadro FX 770M (512MB)
Source was captured from Digital Still Camera (Nikon)

OK, I figured this out after 2 days:
MP4 rendering in PE 7.0 will produce a file with every other screen blank and green when utilizing the iPod presets. Oddly, even though it does not display properly with Quicktime or iTunes (which uses Quicktime) it WILL work when loaded to the iPod. This is an Apple issue, not a PE issue. You CAN solve the incompatability (between iPod and Quicktime/iTunes) problem by rolling back Quicktime to 7.4.5. There is also a discussion of MP4 compatibility issues with AppleTV @ http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=5705015 These settings are the ones to use if you want an MP4 to play on your desktop. The upshot of that discussion for me was for desktop playback, you need to tinker with the "Advanced" Settings dialog box (accessed through the "Share" and then "Mobile Phones and Players" buttons.) You need the the Profile set to "Main" and the Compatibility set to "Standard." For iPod playback, you need the Profile set to "Baseline" and Compatibility set to "iPod." If you want to know why, go to Wikipedia.org and type in h.264.
Steve is right- to play with Motion Jpeg, you have to install additional codecs. PE then works just fine. I got mine at http://www.free-codecs.com/Motion_JPEG_Codec_download.htm
