Convert and save video, audio, and images to more than a hundred standard f

I bought Quicktime pro because it said it could "Convert and save video, audio, and images to more than a hundred standard formats". I have .mov that i took and want to change to an .avi
I feel stupid but how do i do it? shouldn't there be a "convert" or "save as" button?

AVI isn't dead, it remains the ONLY format in which any real editing can be performed (ie filters and colors and zooms etc). That said, converting FROM any compressed format like .mov back to an uncompressed format will not restore the information lost in the original compression conversion. Like the man said, you probably won't like the result. If you want to make an AVI to edit artistically, you'll need to go back to the source and re-record it to make an original uncompressed avi (example I use 'DVD to AVI converter' software to recode my homemade DVDs to a huge uncompressed AVI, then play with cutting and cropping and zooming and special effects and color filters, etc in a program such as VirtualDub, an THEN open in QT Pro to convert to MOVs to share).

  • Record a selected Video, Audio and Subtitle track in low res for proof.

    I am moving my DVD Authoring from Spruce Maestro to DVD Studio Pro.
    The DVDs I create have 25 languages on them that need to be proofed by 25 different people all over the world. In the Spruce system I could just manually record the output with whatever video, audio and subtitle track that needed to be proofed in a WMV file format and then email the proof version before final burn.
    Now in DVD Studio Pro and can not seem to get an analog output to do a manual record. I have purchased an additional video card for my Mac Pro that has S-Video and that does not work. I have the DVI to S-Video converter cable but I can not select that output when it is active. I have tried the export function but that only changes the m2v file into a mpg file, so that does not work.
    Do you have any other suggestions - this is very important for my operation.
    Thank you, Ron Cole 209-604-5415

    very interesting. I do a lot with translation, though my maximum has been 16 languages on a single disc.
    There are a couple things you could do.
    1) One is just to do a screen capture using something like Screenflow to capture and process the single streams you want to output.
    2) I think the first approach is a little arduous. Better would be to use the power of Final Cut even before you get to DVD SP. Unfortunately I don't know your entire workflow. But subtitles can now be done in Final Cut and then carry forward into DVD SP. I'd lay out my edit and soundtrack and subtitles in FCP, and then export a file of my choice and size and have it automatically uploaded. This could be done right out of FCP or by creating a batch in Compressor. Changes, as they came back, would be applied in FCP. Once you had final approval (golden words), I'd move into Compressor to create M2v and ac3 files.
    My projects are done with similar workflows. I then have to ship off translated graphics for the DVD menus. That can be dealt with at the end in a finalized disc or preferably sending off stills for an early approval.
    Make sense?

  • In the past when I have imported my dslr video/audio files and then my zoom audio files Final Cut Pro has organized them in pairs in my library. For some reason my video/audio and my audio are being organized seperately. How do I fix this? Thanks!

    Thank you Russ! Seems as though the timestamp on my audio files was completely incorrect so it placed the files far away from the corresponding video. I've modified the timestamp information and this has helped. The hour/minute information is incorrect but at least now I'm in the ballpark. Thank you!

  • Way to edit and save .AC3 audio files?

    Anyone know if there is a way to edit and save .AC3 audio files in Audition 3?

    Every time you open any coded file at all in Audition, you lose quality if you resave it in anything other than an uncompressed format. With most formats, what is even worse is saving them in a different compressed format, because you end up with twice as many different coding artefacts.
    What you need to understand is that all of these formats are distribution formats, not editing ones. The basic principle is that you work in an uncompressed format until the last possible moment - ie, distribution. And that, ideally, is the only time you use a compressed format at all. So if you want to use something that's compressed, you uncompress it once, and don't recompress until you absolutely have to.

  • Is it possible to mute video audio and play music?

    I am trying to put together a video and would like to at one point in the video mute the video audio and play a bit of music during the video and then after that section un mute the video audio and mute the music.
    Can this be done in iMovie 09 and if so how?
    Thanks

    If you're Airplaying from you computer, you might be able to do this. Here's what I would try:
    Go to the Airplay icon in iTunes. You should see both your Apple TV and your speakers listed as options. Select "Multiple speakers." You'll see both devices together. Turn the volume all the way down on the Apple TV. You should be getting the video on the TV, but only hear audio through the speakers.
    Using the "Multiple Speakers" option will sync the output of your devices so that the sound matches the picture.
    I haven't tried this myself, but I'm thinking this would work. However, this approach will only work when using Airplay from your computer – not from am iPad or iPhone – as they don’t have the "Multiple Speakers" option (as far as I know). It also won't work with content streamed directly to your ATV, obviously, because there's no way to stream from ATV to other devices.
    Let me know if this works.

  • TS2755 I have a new iPhone 5 from T-Mobile. I can send simple texts just fine. However, I have to turn off wi-if and enabler cellular to send texts to more than one person or to attach a picture. Is there a way around this?

    First thing to try is to reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider should one appear until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.

    Contact Apple Support or an Apple Store if you have one near you. Your battery needs to run through the diagnostic test. You can also try to put the device into Recovery mode as well and rsetore the iOS software, and set up the device as new. Follow this article on Recovery Mode:

  • To print an Pie Chart image with more than 1 slice is not working

    Hi friends,
    I'm using a version 12.0.4 and when I try to generate an Pie Chart image with more than 1 slice using the function saveImage() it's not working. The image is only generate when its return is just 1 value (1 peace of pie).
    Anybody help me?
    Regards!

    It's not unique for your setup, but it also happens in 12.0.11, so it's a bug.  Looks like it is throwing a null pointer for some bizzare reason when generating the GIF output by the ImageStorageServlet (per the NW logs). 
    Your best bet would be to log a ticket so it can be patched.
    12.1.7 seems to work fine.

  • Convert to MPEG2 Combined Audio and Video

    I am editing a commercial that needs to end up in MPEG2 with combined audio and video. What is the process by which I do this. Obviously compressor splits the audio and video, but I need it combined.

    Been there, done that.
    I know the layout of Compressor 2 was different - can't remember if these presets were added for 3. Have you looked for Program Stream presets under Compressor 2?
    Here's a thread I found on the Cow - says that after you use Compressor 2.3 to create your MPEG and AUDIO files, use MPEG Streamclip to mux them.

  • Presentation with video, audio and swf´s

    Hi folks,
    I would like to build up a web application which should do
    the following:
    The first step will be that the user will upload a ppt which
    will be converted into seperate SWF´s and the files will be
    written into a XML file.
    After that process the user can start recording: It will open
    up a web page which will load the above XML file (main frame) and a
    SWF file which will record video from the user´s webcam and
    audio from the user´s microphone. The user can start recording
    and when he would like to move to the next slide, he can press a
    button. In this process the time (how long he spoke to the first
    slide) should be written into the above XML file.
    Does anybody of you have any suggestions for me to do that.
    Many thanks,
    Anton

    Hello, Antonhu
    As I far as I can understand, you need two things at least.
    1. Convert PowerPoint to Flash
    You may have a look at this PPT2Flash SDK.
    http://www.sameshow.com/powerpoint-to-flash-sdk.html
    This is a PowerPoint to Flash pramming library for
    integrating to a desktop application or for a server slide
    conversion.
    2. Record Webcam and narration
    As GWD said, you need a flash media server .

  • How do you open and save PNG files as images rather than a document (which my MacBook is doing automatically)?

    Hi,
    Basically I'm doing a course in which i need to import images on a document for evidence (in particular Cirque Du Soleil, yes it's a weird course!) I am using the develop menu tab and using the Inspect Element menu. Here i have found loads of images that are perfect for my evidence, but the images are all showing as PNG files. Whenever I try to save these they will only save as Documents and not images. How can I change this so I can save them as images and import them imto Pages.
    Many Thanks
    Mason

    Hi @Shootist007
    I knew PNG files were image files, that why i was confused when I saved them onto my Mac they were showing as Documents under file type. But i managed to do via Preview (opened it up in Preview then click and dragged to my document).
    Thanks for your help

  • Is there a way to stream video from an external camera to the iPad? Ultimately, I would like to have an app to annotate content and save video and stills. Thanks

    Hi - I am completely new to the iPad apps world (other than as a consumer). My current laboratory workflow takes live analog video from a high quality camera mounted on a microscope, passes the composite signal through a digitizer and displays the digitized stream via USB with a program on my computer. I can watch, resize, and capture stills or video segments from the live video feed. I have good solultions to accomplish this for both Mac and the PC.
    What I would really like is to get that live video on an iPad in the context of an application where users can capture still pictures and short video segments of the streamed content, annotate them with descriptive observations, and search in a  database for comparable images. Is there an existing technology that would allow me to handle at least the video display and capture aspect around which a specific app could be built? I am new to iPad so I have no idea how to do this. Everything I've seen is about watching pre-stored video programs that are already  on the Mac. Thanks so much.

  • Photoshop crashes when I try and save for web and devices. Making the image size smaller does not help.

    I'm trying to make a lopping .gif from an animation that I made. It's 147 total frames. It's crashed about 6 times now every time I either try and Save for Web or even just save the document on my desktop so in case it crashes I can reopen PS and recover it. Making the image size smaller (original size is 1920 x 1080 with resolution 72) does not help, it still makes the *ding* error when I attempt to save. I made the image more than half of the original size and the Save for Web box actually came up that time, but when I tried clicking save it said there was an error and PS crashed without warning.

    Look at the crash report for your Photoshop crashes see what they show
