Conversion mp4, mov

i have a zen vision (NOT the M version) and i have some videos i want to transfer
the conversion that comes with the zen vision can't convert my mp4 and mov files
does anyone know a good converter that will convert my mp4 and mov into a format that the zen vision will play
also what are the type of files the zen vision will play?

is that what you are talkin about?
Yes.
Like I said, using ZENcast in the past, whenever I've uploaded mp4 to my ZVW, it took longer to transfer as it required time to convert to avi. Unless creative's products get an firmware upgrade to work in conjunction with apple product formats, creative mp3s cannot read mp4 (my ZVW won't run them, and at that, there's no firmware upgrades avail on vista).

Creating video clips from MP4 movie

Can anyone recommend a piece of software that will allow me to capture pieces of an mp4 movie and save them as clips for use in iMovie projects? I have converted some analog video Hi8 vacation movies to digital mp4 format. The problem is that the end result of the conversion is a 60 min movie with no breaks in it. I would like to select pieces of the movie, save them to a folder and be able to use them as video clips in iMovie projects. Trying to work with a 60 min movie as opposed to individual clips in iMovie is proving to be impossible. Any suggestions on how to do this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

What you don't want to do is compress more than one time. So the best way to do this is choose file/export/QuickTime Movie... then choose use current settings and include audio and video if both are needed. Also check on "Make movie self contained". This is a single QT movie of your short videos... and it is of the highest quality possible. But it's a large file compared to what you've been suggesting. However... it will end up being compressed to flash and that final should look better because you didn't compress it twice.
That said, it's really making sense to me for YOU to make the flash movie directly from your edit station... You'll need either Flash pro, or Sorenson Squeeze or Episode Pro to do the best job of this. That way you're only compressing one time too.

Mp4 movies with h264 codec on iPhone

I've been converting DVDs to mp4 format to take on my iPhone on vacation. I can get the mpeg-4 codec movies to download and play on the iPhone, but I can not get mp4 movies created with the h264 codec to download to the iPhone from iTunes. The message I get when syncing is "movie name" can not be copied to "my iphone" because it cannot be played on this iphone. Any ideas? has anyone gotten the h264 codec to work with iphone? I am using HandBrake to convert from DVD with the following options.
File format= MP4 file
Codecs=AVC/H.264 Video / AAC Audio
Framerate= 29.97
Encoder= x264 (h.264 iPod)
Output size= 320 x 176
Bit rate Average= 316(kbps)

Have you double checked your video conversion settings to make sure they comply with one of the iPhone's three supported video profiles?
These are:
H.264 video, up to 1.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Low-Complexity version of the H.264 Baseline Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats
H.264 video, up to 768 Kbps, 320 by 240 pixels, 30 frames per second, Baseline Profile up to Level 1.3 with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats
MPEG-4 video, up to 2.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Simple Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats

.mp4 movie won't play with QT 7.1.2

hi,
I have .mp4 movie that can't play and I have the message "Error opening movie. The movie coud not be opened.". It is a personal movie I extracted with handbreak. Yet, yesterday I was able to open it and work with it in iMovie. PLEASE HELP!!!
thank

"Normal" HandBrake conversions are about one quarter of the source in file size. An export (conversion) of a DVD would become about 1GB. Your file is 4.3GB's which would seem to be about the same size as the source MPEG-2 file.
Can you recall the settings you used in HandBrake? Did you use FFmpeg or XviD encoder?
Sorry to ask so many questions instead of pointing you to an answer. I'm running out of ideas to the error.
Others?

How to convert MP4 movie to dvd burn ready disc image?

I have a 15 minute MP4 movie (640x480, non-copy protected) that I'd like to save as a dvd burn-ready disc image. (This was a photo slideshow that a friend made into a movie on OneTrue Media. I don't want to add anything else to it, no chapters, additional files etc -- just save as a disc image that can be posted on my idisk public site for a few friends to download and burn to dvd if they wish). How can I do this the easiest way with iDVD?

Welcome to the forums.
You're almost there. Pull the video into iDVD (mp4 isn't the best format for DVD conversion but it should work) and use the Save As Disc Image command to create your image file (set preferences to Best Performance first).

Unable to import mp4 movies to iTunes 9.2 ver

Hi I'm have some trouble importing mp4 movies I've rip with handbrake into iTunes. I have no problem importing music files such as mp3, but it just would not import movies.
I've tried add file to library, drag and drop into iTunes, nothing works and the confusing part is that there are no error messages!
What do I have to do to move my movie files to iTunes so that I can upload to my iPad?
I do not want to upgrade to iTune v10.
Look forward to your help.

I am able to import a .ts file into Premiere Elements 10, 11, and 12 Windows 7 64 bit.
But, not so, for Premiere Elements 4, 7, 8, and 9.
And, the reason why your .mp4 conversion did not work would be in accord with the fact that you used AVCHD as the video compression, and AVCHD video compression was not supported by Premiere Elements until version 7.
If you do decide to move to version 12, please note that there is a dramatic difference in workspace between 3 and 12. So, go the free tryout of 12 before any purchase.
You could try to convert the .ts to H.264.mp4 and not AVCHD (MPEG4 AVC/H.264).mp4 and see if that works for you.

MP4 movies not playing on iPod with version 1.3

I have iTunes version 7.6.1.9 and iPod firmware version 1.3. I have several movies converted to MP4 format via Nero which played on the iPod just fine up until about 10 days ago. Now the MP4 movies will no longer play on the iPod, i just get a blank screen. The one movie I did convert using Handbrake to M4V format does still play on the iPod. Also I downloaded an MP4 movie from ipodarchive.com and it plays fine on iPod. All movies in all formats play fine in iTunes.
Does anyone know if there is something in one of the firmware updates which prevents the playing of MP4's converted by certain programs?
Thanks

I found the same problem. It's not all mp4's, though; some of mine work perfectly. I think higher quality videos don't work, for some reason. Movies at 159 kbps and 640x480 don't work, though they used to. Movies at 79 kbps and 480x352 still work fine.
Have you found any fixes/workarounds?

Im unable to drag mp4 movies into itunes and sync to my ipad2 after updating itunes to 10.5.2.11? Im using Windows7. I was able to before this update, why?

I see same question with itunes not accepting mp4 videos and no answers? Has anyone been able to sort this out or is it a software problem being attended by apple? Please reply?

I am trying to apply a lens filter in CS6 to a mp4 movie from the phantom 2 . I do the normal steps of lens filter and choose dji, phantom2 , and I click ok and the picture improves and there is less curve etc. What I don't know is why it seems to revert

I am trying to apply a lens filter in CS6 to a mp4 movie from the phantom 2+. I do the normal steps of lens filter and choose dji, phantom2+, and I click ok and the picture improves and there is less curve etc. What I don't know is why it seems to revert back to the old movie when I come back later on. I know I saved it but I must be doing something wrong. Here are my steps:
Open an Mp4 movie
Choose filter, lens correction
Choose dii
choose Phantom FC200
click ok and the image improves.
I then save as a name.psd and close the file.
I reopen the file and it looks good. When I play the movie it just jumps back to the old curved horizon.
What am I doing wrong? If you can help me I would be very grateful.

I'm pleased already on your feedbacks
FJ

Sorry but Apple has placed heavy copy protection on the videos from the iTunes music store. It is not possible to do this. The only way you can burn it is as a file on a back-up cd or dvd but it will only be a file and not be playable.
Hope this helps

Can't set POSTER FRAME for .mp4 movies... can for most others

I've got QTPro.
When I try to create a poster frame for a .mp4 movie I compressed it tells me I have to save and does one of the following two things:
1) Tells me I can't save after I hit SAVE
2) Tells me it wants to save as a .mov file... I don't WANT a .mov file.
Any thoughts?

Sorry to tell you so late in your life that you only have one job when it comes to moms and grand-moms. Give them what they want!
Part of your "monicker" best describes the issue.
You can edit your published pages using hundreds of tools but the are best edited with a plain text editing app like BBEdit (any plain text editor works).
You can use Safari to view your page and even "save" the source code (Command-Option-U) and then "save as". Edit this new page to make your changes and drag it back into the appropriate Web older of your iDisk (replacing the older version).
I did it to one of my pages to add a sound file to one of my slideshow pages:

just because others said it couldn't be done.
Darn. Now you have another mother, or worse, an in-law. Sorry.

Why won't my .mov or my .mp4 movie play in Keynote 4.0?

Others on the forum seem able to play movies in their keynote projects. I can't.
When the slide I have placed the movie comes up, the movie plays for a second or so and then quits while the next slide comes up. What am I doing wrong? The movie is just over 2 minutes long. Why won't it play?
Any help will be appreciated. I'm new to using Keynote. I've enjoyed making builds with music on mulitiple slides, but dang it, I can't seem to make a simple .mov or a .mp4 movie work. I'm guessing I'm missing something very basic. Please help.

If I am understanding your problem correctly, this is unfortunately a bug (or simply an unsupported feature) in Keynote that has not been corrected since the very beginning. Currently, the only way to have a movie play properly through is to:
1) make sure the slide containing the movie has no delay in the transition to the next slide, and
2) you will need to create transparent objects (like a square), each building in a set amount of seconds (60 seconds max allowable per object). For example: For a three minute movie, you will need to create an object, build it in over 60 seconds. Then copy and paste for the second object only this time, set it to start building in AFTER the previous build. Copy and paste again, set to build after the previous build, only this time, you will need to adjust the 60 seconds down to whatever fits. When the last object is done building, the slide will transition regardless of whether or not the movie is done playing.
It is a complete waste of time as trying to determine the duration of the last object to build in is totally trial and error. I am amazed that this simple feature (playing a movie within a slide) is hampered.

Mp4 movie not compatible with Apple TV

My ATV will not allow me to synch an MP4 movie Chef to the ATV as it says it is not compatible, yet I can watch the same movie in iTunes. It is the 160gb ATV

MP4 is a container, the contents inside also needs to be compatible

My mp4 movies freeze up while playing them in itunes

I have about 1000 mp4 movies in my itunes, but i find that alot of them are having a hard time playing. they tend to freeze up,the movies are anywhere from 900 MB to 4 GB, sometimes the audio keeps going and the picture stops. I tried playing them with my VLC player and they work no problem.
I wanted all these movies in my Itunes so i could watch them on my Apple TV, what good will this be if they won't play properly in my Itunes.
Is anyone else having these types of problems?
it seems the more content i put in my Itunes the worse it is responding.

i have just encoded one of the movies to M4v and it seems to play fine with this format.... make sense?

Does anyone know how I stream non-MP4 movies to apple TV?

Just migrated from PC to Mac Book Pro...love it but dissapointed that I can not stream non-MP4 movies to Apple TV as I do using CineX Player on my iPad.
Does anyone know a work around???
Many thanks

"Air parrot" will stream your desktop to Apple-TV.
So if you use VLC or somesuch player that has a "fullscreen" mode and plays non-MP4 movies you can stream your non-MP4 movie to AppleTV. I've done it, and it works OK, and it is as requested a "work around".
You can try it out for free (http://airparrot.com) and if you like it, it's not very expensive.
Only problem I've encountered is having to use the Mac's system preferences to switch sound back to the Mac after I've finished with Air Parrot.
Hope that helps.
Robert.
