Conversion of avi to mov

Anyone know a program I can use to convert avi to mov? on deadline and I can't find anything. Thanks

Divixx Doctor will also convert and it's a free prgm to download. It also worked on some PAL avi's I had. Didn't work on all the PAL stuff, but most of it. NTSC avi should all be good.

Artifacts in Using Save As for AVI to MOV Conversion?

When I SAVE AS a compressed avi file to mov, I am seeing artifacts (they look like interlacing errors) in the final mov file, vs the same frames in the .avi file. Can I avoid this somehow? The avi file was compressed with the BlackMagic Intensity code (I think it's motion jpg too).
The file sizes are the same.
Bummer, I bought Quicktime Pro just for this. Any help appreciated.
Thanks

Can anyone here tell me why two duplicate laptops treat the avi-to-mov conversion so differently and why I must export at 480p?
As to QT playback, either the codec component configuration is different on each system or the the AVI file contains a legacy video codec that is turned on for system "A" but left off for system "B" but which is included in the Perian bundle installed on system "B." With reguard to the forced conversion rather than a simple "Save As..." action, please confirm the video codec name given in the "Inspector" window for each system. I suspect that either the video codec is different on each system or that the Perian version of the same codec with a different name may be forcing the "Export" conversion.

AVI and MOV conversion?

I just got a new iPod Classic 80gb, and I found out that you cant sync AVI and MOV file format videos to it.
What I was wondering if there is a patch or something that allows my iPod to read AVI or MOV formats.
I'm using iSquint, but its rather slow for a 500mhz G4.
Thanks

Hello - I have a post below yours about converting avi files. So gather from your post that I need to buy quick pro, not just use what came with my new mbpro to be able to convert the files. Is this correct?

How do I convert MP4 file to AVI or MOV using MacBook Pro (2010)

I am 10.6.4 new user on a new MacBook Pro. This is my first Mac computer.
I want to convert a MP4 video file to AVI or MOV file type. How would I do this on my new Mac? Documentation says I have Quicktime X, but I cannot find Quicktime X on my system. When I try to load Quicktime 7 Pro, my system says I have Quicktime X and cannot load Pro. Apple websites say Pro version will allow me to convert the MP4 files. Anyone have any experience or ideas on what I should do? How do I find Quicktime X? Will it do the conversion for me? Thanks

Use MPEG Streamclip, or open the QuickTime Player from the /Applications/Utilities/ folder, installing this software if needed.

AVI to MOV? Any good compression tools?

I need to convert about 100GB of AVI with embedded Canopus Codecs to MOVs so they can be compatible with Final Cut Pro. They wont open by themselves in FCP for some reason. Anybody have advice on software that converts AVI to MOV with out loss of quality?

If it is a proprietry Canopus Codec, I think it is likely that you will need to use a Canopus software product to create a suitable mov file. If the file is a more generally available Codec we use Autodesk Cleaner for file conversion. This takes most formats, except wmv, for input and can output a number of formats and Codecs (including wmv). It is getting a bit long in the tooth now, but still works well for us.
Incidently I am currently doing wmv files on a PC with the Ulead software that came with the DVD burner. It does an OK job and since most of the source is game play footage from various computer games and is often less than perfect to begin with it is usually adequate.

DV
Which should i choose?
Thanks

Use DV or AIC for highest quality with largest source files. Use MPEG4 or H.264 for smallest source files with less quality.

HT2729 What video formats (avi, MPEG, MOV, etc.) are "playable" on MacBook without adding some kind of converter? Any? how?

What video formats (avi, mpeg, mov, etc.) are "playable" on MacBook without any video converter? Are there any? How come quick time wont let me play a MPEG? When you google this question, al the answers make me download some converter (VLC, etc.)

What video formats (avi, mpeg, mov, etc.) are "playable" on MacBook without any video converter? Are there any?
Depends on what compressed data is in the AVI, MPEG, or MOV file container. E.g., assuming you are using the QT X v10.2 player listed in your hardware profile, a "muxed" MPEG-2/AC3 MPEG file will probably play correctly but an MPEG-2/MP2 or MPEG-2/PCM MPEG file may be problematic. In a similar manner, a Motion-JPEG/WAV AVI file probably won't play the video but play the audio while a DV audio/video AVI file will probably still play correctly.
How come quick time wont let me play a MPEG?
Agian, it depends on what you mean by an MPEG file here. A "muxed" MPEG-2/AC3 file in an MPEG, MPG, TS, or MOV file container should play correctly while the same data in a VOB file container will neither load nor play. Further, this file is not only playback compatible with the QT X v10.2 player but is now conversion compatible to H.264/AAC MOV files on my system which was a surprise to me. On the other hand, if the MPEG file contains MPEG-2 video muxed with MP2 audio (a common PC compression combination), the file will likely have audio/video sync problems and/or freeze up entirely. However, this latter file plays back correctly and without problem in QT 7 with the Apple QT MPEG-2 playback component installed. (For the moment I assume the new support capabilities, as well as, the latest audio problems here may be associated with the system audio upgrades begun in Lion and completed in Moutain Lion.)
When you google this question, al the answers make me download some converter (VLC, etc.)
QT is in the process of being totally re-written. Unfortunately, the addition of new capabilities comes at the expense of making the "new" QT structure less and less compatible with legacy compression formats and file containers and likely signals the eventual end of QT 7 and its "Pro" capabilities in favor of higher definition, more efficient compression technologies.

Let us start from the beginning.
It has been established that you have Premiere Elements 10. On what computer operating system is it running?
There has not been a File Menu/Export/Movie export opportunitity in Premiere Elements since version 7. We are not up to version 12.
For Premiere Elements 10, your export opportunities are all in Share/ including one for Computer. Under Computer there are several choices. The ones that you see are Adobe Flash Video, MPEG, and AVCHD. The others you have to scroll down to. And those choices are AVI, Windows Media, QuickTime, Image, and Audio. You do not have to use the scroll bar for this. You can click on Adobe Flash Video panel to get it to turn black. Then use the down arrow to go down the list and the up arrow to go up the list. Once you get to a category, you can select a preset and go with it or customize it under the Advanced Button/Video Tab and Audio Tab of the preset.
If you post the properties of your source media that you want to try to match in the export, I would be glad to suggest the exact settings for you.
We will be watching for your follow up with details.
Thank you.

Add On...The Premiere Elements 10 File Menu is for more than Saving, just not exporting. One of the key features that can be access there is the Project Archiver. More on that another time.

AVI to MOV converter

Any1 knows a good avi to mov converter that is free of charge??

Does MPEG Streamclip do what you want? Note that AVI is a container, not a file format; the audio and video parts of it may be encoded with any codec.

Mini DVR Records in .AVI and .MOV Format-white screen

I am a private investigator, and have used a mac for years. I purchased my new MacBook 2 weeks ago for the purpose of uploading the video to my mac, and burning the video to DVD for my clients.
I just purchased a JS208 Mini DVR and Mini Spy Button Cam. I.E. its a generic chinese product, but I was told that since it records in .AVI and .MOV format, I could either plug in the SV card (with the video from the mini DVR) or plug the USB cord into the computer and upload the video.
When I plug in the DVR, iPhoto recognizes that a .MOV is available. It downloads.
However, once downloaded, and opened on Quicktime, no sound and white screen.
When I click on Command I, This is what i see:
Source: /Users/sammythepug/Desktop/MPEG0002.MOV
Format: Apple MPEG4 Decompressor, 640 x 480, Millions
Microsoft ADPCM, Stereo, 12.000 kHz
FPS: 30
Playing FPS: (Available while playing)
Data size: 2.28MB
Data Rate: 2336.00 kbits/s
Current Time: 0:00:00:00.00
Duration: 0:00:00:08.20
Normal Size: 640 x 480 pixels
Current Size: 640 x 480 pixels (Actual)
I spent an hour on the phone with Mac Support, and they told me to download MPEG StreamClip. I really don't know what I am doing at this point, because everyone told me it would be easy...HELP!!

Here are the DVR Specs:
Digital Screen: 1.5" TFT LCD
Recording Formats: AVI, ASF, MOV
Recording Resolution: 640x480, 480x240, 160x120 pixels
Frame Rate: 30 FPS
Built in Flash: 45MB
SUB Jack: High Speed USB 2.0
Mini Cam Specs:
Picup device: 1/3" color CMOS
System: PAL/NTSC/ EIA
Horizontal Definition: 420 TV Lines
Minimum Illumination: 3 Lux
Dimensions: 27x27x8mm
Power Supply DC 5V
I am also open to recommendations for other cameras that may work. The DVR has to be smaller than a pack of cigarettes, and has to be compatible with the mini button camera.
thanks

How to publish to video format avi , wmv , mov or mpg ?

How to publish to video format avi , wmv , mov or mpg ?

Hello there,
You can publish as MP4 from Captivate and then use any video converters to convert from MP4 to whatever format you need. But, as Lilybiri mentioned, there won't be any interactivity in the videos.
Thanks,

AVI TO MOV = blur?

Hi!
I used Qt pro 6.5.2 to convert some Avi files (1024x768 pixels) to Mov.files. the result is SO blurred! i have used the "best" settings all over... Then burned them in IDvd 5.0.1.
The Avi files looks just fine played in Qt or Vlc - not blurred.
Toggen

Toggen,
AVI and MOV files are just video "Containers". The video and audio inside the container can be in many many formats/compression schemes.
So telling us you converted from AVI to MOV is kinda like telling me you put your beer in a plastic mug or a glass mug, but what I really need to know is what kind of beer it was, and how you changed the beer before moving it to the new mug......."best" settings all over doesn't tell us much.
Do "Show Movie Info" after opening the AVI and MOV in QT. That will give your the video formats/compression schemes you used.

PS.....Yes I do have an interest in malted barley & hop beverages......and I prefer to use glass pints

AVI formatted movies

How do I view an avi format movie on my MacBook?
I was going to download quicktime pro, but quicktime 7 will not install because I have quicktime X on my MacBook. Any suggestions?

You can download vlc media player for Mac. It runs perfectly on mine.

Capturing images from avi or mov in QT

What's out there to capture single images in jpeg format for an avi or mov file that I can play through qt pro ?
thanks

What's out there to capture single images in jpeg format for an avi or mov file that I can play through qt pro ?
Not sure if you are referring to a single JPEG image (as for a poster image) here or a JPEG image sequence.
In the former case, you can use QT 7 Pro "Movie to Picture" option to export a single frame to a PCT image file (with or without compression) which, if double-clicked will then open in Preview and allowing you to re-save the image in several image formats including JPEG. If you want to go directly to a JPEG image and have the free MPEG Streamclip application installed, use it.
In the latter case, use the QT 7 Pro "Movie to Image Sequence" export option to save a sequence of JPEG images to folder using the "Options" palette set the image frequency.
