Combine .mov files audio lost

When trying to combine .mov files from Nikon D7000 using QT Pro the audio is lost on the file that is pasted in. I have followed the instruct on page 31 of the manual that are very simple of selecting all in one file and edit-copy then open the next file and edit-paste to the beginning. When you play it back the audio from the pasted file is lost. Is the way the product actually works or is the some simple I have missed?

Does anyone know if this the expected behavior of Quicktime Pro when combining .mov files that the audio from the one being added to the other is lost?

.mov file has lost picture but still has audio

Why should a .mov file lose its picture half-way through?
I was trying to burn my film onto DVD and on the preview in toast i noticed the audio was good all the way through but the picture stopped suddenly. If I play the film through the quick time viewer it has the same effect, the audio is fine but the screen goes black (and stays that way) in the same place.
I went into the iMovieHD project file and the film played fine through that. After trying to 'save as' the project into different places the .mov file still showed the same problems.
I have been using iMovie4 for a while now without problems but since installing iMovieHD keep getting weird problems like this. Also my camcorder plays up now also. It keeps getting stuck on DV in mode (this is probably unconnected but started happening same day as installing iLife5)
I was thinking of doing a re-install but after reading through the related topics i get the impression that this may not be the best solution.

Hi Jason:
Perhaps it is time to run a disk repair and empty the caches. Also, this is a great site to check out-

Thank you for any help you can provide..

Codec : icod
I generally defer to folks like QuickTimeKirk on these sorts of matters, but I think that's the source of the problem. That's the Apple Intermediate Codec, an editing codec used on Macs:

... and it won't display on a PC:

Can the provider of the file re-export it using a different video codec for you?

Open the movie in the QuickTime Player and Select Export -> Sound to AIFF.
Drop the exported AIFF file into iTunes.
Make sure the iTunes CD Import Settings in Prefs is set to the MP3 encoder.
Right-Click on the AIFF file in the iTunes Library display and select Create MP3 Version.

Combining .mov Files for iTunes

Hello
I have a training CD (not DVD) that has 20+ .mov files that want to import into iTunes as one video media file. I tried importing them individually and of course I wound up with 20+ individual media files which is undesireable. How can I combine this for import into iTunes?
Thanks

You'll probably have to use a video editing tool such as mpegstreamclip or Quicktime Pro.

MOV files audio

Using PE11 and importing a video via SD card into the organizer, when played in the organizer panel, all audio/video sync up and look and sound great. However, when I attempt to add the same file to edit Premiere Elements, I have a 48 second video that is uploading and only 8 seconds of audio. I've tried slowing down the audio to match the video, but this seems to screw it up more. I cannot see any "conforming" happening during the import to PE from the organizer. I shot the video with a Nikon Coolpix L810.

When you add the video to the timeline, before you do ANY work, is there a red line over the video?
If yes, that means your project and video do not match... what is your project setting and does it match the video?

Is there an easy way to move files (audio or pictures) from ios to Mac?

Eg, if I wanted to record an audio track with Garage Band on my ipad and then move it to my Mac.. Must be quick and easy. Obviously there are ways I could do it fast, like email..

Are they messages that were addressed to your MobileMe account?
You should be able to either create a new folder to be on the MobileMe server, and then select all the messages in any one On My Mac mailbox and move them. I would personally use the Move To command in the pull-down under Messages to do this, but they can be dragged en mass.

No thumbnails or playback of MOV files in Adobe Bridge CC

Hi
I recently downloaded and installed the latest version of Bridge from the Creative Cloud and I am unable to view thumbnails of .MOV files taken with an Apple iPhone5. I am able to open the file but there is no audio or video in the playback. Anyone else have similar issues? I am able to view these same files in Lightroom CC fine. I am using Windows 7 64-bit. Thanks in advance for any help or advice.

Only thing I can think of is there must have been some kind of mixup in
the transfer process. Here's what I did: I plugged her phone into our
Macbook Air at home and transferred her stills and movies off from her
camera (using iPhoto) to a connected portable hard drive. From there I
copied and pasted the files onto a removable thumb drive. From there I
brought them to work on my PC and copied them off to a portable hard drive
there. Seems to me the MOV files got lost in translation somehow. It's
possible I didn't do this correctly? I know with MY iPhone images and
movies I copied them directly from my phone onto my computer (PC) when it
showed up as a device in my device listing. It wanted to use iTunes for
this but I bypassed iTunes and did it the old fashioned way. These are the
files that I am able to view correctly on my PC at work in Bridge. So I
guess I need to recheck my workflow here.

Help with movie files

I searched for an answer to my problem and couldn't find one...
I am trying to put 6 short mpg movie files into my iDVD project. I know you can't use mpeg video, I used Quicktime to convert the mpeg video to .mov files and lost my audio. I need to be able to put these files into my project with the audio, can someone help me?
Thanks in advance.

I figured it out on my own, thanks anyways.
I used MPEG streamclip to convert to AVI files, and it didn't butcher my audio. Turns out they were MPEG-1 muxed files, I had to demux them.

Combining Movie Clips in iPhoto

I currently use iPhoto 08 to download all of my photos and movie clips from my camera. Problem is, if I have, say 20 clips of one event on my camera, and want to combine into one large clip, i currently have to open all 20 clips, go to the second clip, "select all", hit "copy", then go to the first clip, "paste", then repeat 18x - - its very time consuming and easy to accidentally miss a clip or paste it in twice.....
Is there any easier / less time consuming way in iPhoto or another app to easily combine clips into one long clip?

You can combine movie files with Quicktime Pro.

Lost Video For Second Movie Clip When Combining 2 files

Good Evening Folks,
I have two rather large home videos I am trying to combine into one. They were recorded on different disks due to time limits per disk.
Both files are in M4V format. I am combining them using Quicktime 7 (a fully registered version I purchased through Apple for just this purpose).
My process is as follows:
1. Open both files in separate Quicktime Windows
2. On the SECOND file, click "Command + C" to copy audio/video
3. On FIRST file, click the >> button to get to the end of the file
4. Hit "Command + V" to paste the data from the second file into the first
5. Save the new, combined file as a new name
NOW, when I open the NEW, combined file in Quicktime, both video and audio work perfectly, and the resulting file is 1.96 GB. BUT, when I add that file to iTunes so it can be played via my Apple TV, the file keeps video and audio for the first half, and kees AUDIO for the second half, but loses video for the second half.
Can anyone think of anything I am doing wrong, or something I can do differently to get this to work (aside from keeping two separate files - I realize that's an option, but not preferable.
Thoughts?

FYI, the final combined file is a .MOV file, not a m4v.
Thanks.

How do I combine an .m2v file and an .ac3 file into a .mov file ??

Hello,
I had a question regarding Demuxing M2V and AC3 files so that they can be combined into a .mov file.
A few years ago I converted a .mov file into an .m2v and an .AC3 using Final Cut Pro. I lost the FCP Project and .mov files and only have the .m2v and .ac3 files left. When I tried to combine them together in FCP, the audio did not match up anymore even though it matches on DVD Studio Pro. I was told that I needed demux the files. How do you do that ???
Thanks so much for your time !!!
Happy New Year!

Doug,
Am posting the workflow discussed in my last email here in the event others might be interested.
Best workflow I've found to resync and convert the M2V/AC3 elementary stream files to an MOV ProRes422/AIFF file are as follows:
1) Convert the AC3 audio file to AIFF. (My system is configured for AC3 so I used QT 7 Pro here. My only compaint at this point is that my original AC3 file was DD5.1 and my QT 7 Pro component only supports stereo conversions.)
2) Simultaneously drop-import the original M2V file along with the converted AIFF file to MPEG Streamclip (requires the QT MPEG-2 Playback component be installed).
3) Sample playback of the combined data to ensure audio and video are correctly in sync throughout the file.
4) Use the MPEG Streamclip "Export to QuickTime" File menu option to export the current date to the target Apple ProRes422 video target you want and pass the AIFF PCM audio through to the MOV file container without further processing.
5) Import the ProRes422/AIFF MOV file to your FCP bin and reset project default codec use to match imported file when asked so you don't have to do any re-rendering for final output.
6) I re-checked file playback in the Preview window to ensure A/V was still in sync before beginning edits in the project timeline.
All went well for me using this workflow. You may want to give it a try and let us know if it worked as well for you.
Good luck!

How to Combine an .m2v and and an .AC3 into one QT.mov file

A few years ago I converted a .mov file into an .m2v and an .AC3 using Compressor 1.2 (that was for DVD Studio Pro 3.0). I lost the .mov and now need to combine the two files into one QT .mov file. How can I do that please?
I have QT 7.1 3 in OS 10.3.9 and also the QT that came with OS 10.5.8 (I can run either OSs.) (I know that the combined file will be of poorer quality compared to the original .mov). I have Aimersoft Total Media Converter 2.0.4 which can convert video from one form to another, but it can't combine (at least I don't think so).

I lost the .mov and now need to combine the two files into one QT .mov file. How can I do that please?
If you don't have software to do this directly, basically you would have only two other options. The first would be to mux the M2V and AC3 files and then convert the "muxed" file using a compatible converter. The second, would be to convert the audio and video files separately and merge the converted files in a video editor, QT Pro, GarageBand, or a similar application.

.mov file in Quicktime: Audio OK, Video not OK

Reposting this as a new topic, since it was buried in the other thread.
I have a small HD video camera that records .mov files to an SD flash card.
I get audio, but no video. The Quicktime movie inspector says the format is "mbarella AVC encoder 3avcCM@" - then an apparently random selection of symbols that I don't see on my keyboard..
I have bought and activated the Quicktime pro key.
The movie properties window tells me the Video Track in in H.264 format - but I use H.264 a lot, and never have a problem with it.
It's not just one file that is problematic - every video file fails to show on my laptop, though the video files play back without a problem on the camera.
I can't open the file in Quicktime, Real Player, VLC, itunes, iphoto, MPEG Stream clip, or Final cut. I used to be able to open files from this camera on my laptop, but suspect I have upgraded and lost functionality. Saved files that used to play in Quicktime and in iphoto now do not play video - audio is fine, but not video.
I have downloaded the Perian add-on, but that has made no difference.
Any thoughts? I can send a short test file from the camera if necessary.
Hope you have a good weekend!
Best wishes

Hi Jon - test file sent by email to your address in profile, from my rob....{at}gmail address.
File received and examined. Appears to be a codec problem. Suspect the camera may be using a custom/hybrid encoder. QT is very touchy about such things. Was able to open and play it in both older version of VLC and new version which installed today. Tried transcoding the result to standard MP4 file but the results were not satisfactory.
Test.mp4
If you download/play this test, you will note that the pan portion is very poorly rendered. Stepping the clip frame-by-frame seems to display some frames out of their natural order. In addition, the clip looses two seconds of playback time as if some frames were either lost during the transcode or the original file had a varying frame rate which was reset to a fixed rate and time reference in the transcoded file. This seems to be confirmed by analysis of the HandBrake conversion below...
FILE0055.m4v
Used a custom TV preset I happen to be testing in latest Snow Leopard version of HandBrake to create the file which does play back the same as you original file in the VLC player. This preset, among other things, duplicates the original frame rate variations. In this case, analysis indicates the frame rate excursion to be 29.970 -6.008/+30.280 fps which plays the clip in 12.07 seconds and is only 0.03 seconds longer than your original file. The downside to this is the fact that the preset as used here doubles the video rate and quadruples the audio data rate.
You might perform a search to see if a QT component is required for proper viewing of camera content. (I.e., a component that was originally installed on the system that used to play the files--e.g., check software disc that may have come with the camera.) Otherwise, my only suggestion would be to download the latest version of HandBrake and see if you can transcode the files for playback using the standard or currently configured component set installed on your system.
Good Luck,

How do I combine several mov files into a larger mov file?

I am just getting started with Premiere Elements (12.0) and have what seems to me to be a very simple goal. I have several short ".mov" movies and would like to combine them into a single ".mov" movie. I have gone through the menus and can't find a way to do this. If someone would point me in the right direction, I'd appreciate it.

Norm Noe
Thanks for the reply.
There is no reason why you should not be able to export your Timeline content to a file with a .mov file extension with several choices for video compression.
From your details, I suspect I know the problem that has not surfaced until your latest post.
When you get to Publish+Share/Computer, there are several choices. Adobe Flash Video with one of its export f4v is a choice not the default for the exports under Publish+Share/Computer. The categories to select from under Publish+Share/Computer include, from top to bottom...
Adobe Flash Video
MPEG
AVCHD
XAVC=S
AVI
Windows Media
QuickTime
Image
Audio
It is the QuickTime choice which will give you the exports with the .mov file extension. And, you can select from a large number of video codecs to go with the .mov file extension. But, to make that choice, you need to
(a) Have the latest version of QuickTime installed on your computer
(b) Use the scroll bar to the right of the list to get to the bottom of the list where you will find QuickTime.
Example for you to look at if you have not already...if your source is 1920 x 1080p24...
Then
Import....
Project Preset
NTSC
DSLR
1080p
DSLR 1080p 24
Export
Publish+Share
Computer
QuickTime
with Presets = NTSC DV 16L9
then, under the Advanced Button/Video Tab, customize the Export Settings...See screenshot below
Leave the Bitrate Settings without the check mark next to "Limit Data Rate to" for this first run.
Depending on the file size of the export, next time we can type a specific data rate value in that field.
Please review, consider, and then let us know if you are OK with the information provided.
Thank you.
