Converting and storing videos and slideshows to/in MAC

i am trying to figure out where to store my videos and slideshows (i use Aperture) but before i get there i am noticing that i am getting an error on some of my file types and also that i have a lot of different file types.
does anyone know how to fix this error or why it is coming up?
does anyone know a convenient way to convert these various file types so they are Mac friendly and if so what software and command to use?
i have EPS, PDF, mov, mpg, mp4, m4v and wmv etcetera
ideally i would also like to STORE these in one place if at all possible.
i currently have Aperture and Adobe Bridge.

How can you create a playlist with music and music video and play those from same playlist through Apple TV?

How can you create a playlist on Ipod touch with music and music video, and play those from same playlist through Apple TV? I can download, create a playlist with both music and music video, stream that through the Apple TV with no problem. The sound and the information show up on the TV, but when it gets to a music video, it only shows the information and "artwork".
I also have a video playlist - videos play fine through the Apple TV, but will not shuffle through all videos - continues to repeat the same one. I have most definitely selected shuffle in both locations - from the playlist and on the ipod video screen while video is playing.

I finally got it... had to sync the photos with the music in iMovie, arrange the voiceover in GarageBand then export to iTunes, and then I was able to put it all together in iMovie and burn in iDVD... had a few glitches along the way but finally finished : )

I am trying to use the auto audio-sync feature. When I select the video and audio clip to be synced FCPX says its syncing them and then once finished (at 100%) no compound clip is created and the video and audio file do not sync. Any help is appreciated.

Hi
In iMovie'11 (version 9.0.x)
on top menu row - Apple/iMovie/File/Edit/Cut (Can vary dep. on language - in Swedish Apple/iMovie/Arkiv/Redigera/Klipp . . . )
down Cut menu - Slow playback/Raspid Playback/Re-play in Slow Motion and onvards
Here one can select the Pre-Set speeds
Are you familiar with getting 'inspector' to run?
No - but I guess that Double Click on clip/sequense or ctrl-Click on it might open it.

I am trying to play an mp4 in quicktime and the video and audio does not sync. Any tips?

I am trying to play an mp4 in quicktime and the video and audio does not sync. Any tips? This is not hack/ripped video but a legit home movie.

In this case, it looks like Quicktime wasn't very efficient in managing memory, leading to a slowdown in playback. If QT has a lag and VLC doesn't, that's more evidence.
I couldn't say why your friend's windows computer plays the media fine, while your Mac doesn't. The only thing I could suggest is to disable QT streaming video - which has been known to slow down performance.

Will PSE12 convert my AVCHD videos and burn to Bluray? [was:Question]

Will Adobe Premier Element 12 videoprocessing software convert my AVCHD videos to the proper video format (when I "upload" or "capture" then to my computer) and then allow me to burn to blurays? In other words, will this software do it all (I have bluray burner installed)?

Atsugiboy
From what I have read of your camera, it should be recording at frame rates of 60i, PF30, 60p for video with AVCHD video compression and a .mp4 file extension. If these files are on your computer hard drive, then I would start out with an import from the hard drive save location to Premiere Elements 12 Expert workspace Project Assets via the program's Add Media/Files and Folders.
The first video drag to the should direct the program to set up automatically the project settings (Sometimes it does, sometimes it does not). For the does not times, then you will need to set the project preset manually.
We can go into greater details once you get started.
Your camera settings and what they are telling you
60i (60 fields per second aka 29.97/30 interlaced frames per second)
1920 x 1080 @ 29.97/30 interlaced frames per second
PF30
that is Canon's
1920 x 1080 @ 30 progressive frames per second
60p
1920 x 1080 @ 60 progressive frames per second
The project preset that the project or you set should match the properties of your source media.
The project should be able to handle AVCHD.mts.
When you are ready for the burn to
Publish+Share
Disc
Blu-ray
Use the 1920 x 1080 settings rather than 1440 x 1080 HD anamorphic 16:9
This is Blu-ray disc format on Blu-ray disc (not datadisc).
We can get into the finer details of all this once you have the tryout and after you explore the program with mini test runs. At any time, please do not hesitate to ask questions or to ask for clarification on anything written.
Thanks.

How do I convert purchased music videos and television shows into my Itunes liabrary and sync it onto my ipod?

I recently purchased a music video and a television show episode off of Itunes. It was in my liabrary until I plugged in my Ipod nano 4th generation for it to sync. As my ipod is syncing the music video and tv show episode were'nt in my liabrary and they didn't sync onto my ipod. Yet when I log into my itunes store account the purchsed content is there. How do I get the music video and tv episode into my itunes library and onto my ipod?

My guess (and it is just a guess) is that what you are trying to do is no different than recording a TV programme to a VCR then watching it at a time of your convenience, probably the main reason why people have purchased VCRs, PVRs and the like.
However, with commercially produced DVDs, there is an encryption built in to prevent copying, and it the discussion of how to overcome this encryption that Apple will not permit on their forums.

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.

Merging and storing files and folders on external hard drive

Merging and storing files/folders - I have a MacBookPro3,1 & a MacBookAir1,1 both running OS10.6.8 and then files from backups and archives on a LaCie 250 and LaCie 500. I want to improve my productivity by merging all files/folder into one place.
I have a WesternDigital 1T to move files/folders to and do my duplicate deletion work.
The end result I'm seeking is to have all my files/folders stored on the LaCie 500 - with space for expanding iPhoto Library and Movies then that LaCie 500 Backed up on the 1T. As my computers are older models the internal drives are smaller - MBA 80GB and MBP160. The Air in particular gets full up quickly and doesn't work efficiently.
What steps/software have you had experience with, and would recommend to merge all my files/folders, delete duplicates, and get it all in one place - including iTunes, iPhoto.
What are the pros and cons of keeping & working with files/folders on an external drive rather than on the internal drive?
I'm aware of sluggishness in iPhoto if the library is too large, and looked into iPhoto Library Manager as an option for my photos.
Thanks in advance for your help with this way past due Spring cleaning activity.

Plugins have to be in specific locations for the application to load them. If you're just storing plugins you're not using you can store them anywhere.

Starting and stopping video and MP3

I can't seem to get around my video and audio files starting when I arrive at the page. I'm even using some example code with start and stop buttons. This is in CS4 Flash. I expect it's because the ActionScript is in the wrong place because when I run the movie it flashes through all of the pages on the site without stopping at the home page. Is there some generic code that will allow me to simply swap out the name of the video or audio file I want to start. If there is, do I need to locate it on its own layer at the top of the timeline? Thanks to anyone who can help.

>>Why is it that the default setting for a video player placed on the stage
is to start playing when the page appears? I would think it would be
paused.<<
I don't know it doesn't seem any more logical to have it paused. I assume it
is just a preference on the part of the developers of Flash.
>>Is there some piece of script that can correct this situation<<
There are several ways to pause the video playback at teh beginning of the
Flash movie. It actually depends on how you have the movie inserted into the
time line. If you used an FLVPlayback component, then all you have to do is
click to select the component, open the component inspector
(window>component Inspector) and se the autoplay value for the component to
false. If you have the video inserted another way let me know.
>>Forgive my naivete but I am trying to learn the ways of Actionscript
wherever I can find it and builds something at the same time.<<
Thats always hard. What tecnology do you normally work with Ajax? C++
The comment about the behavior of video suggests you work with a technology
that has the opposite autoplay behavior.

Can I link and lock video and audio tracks - layers - as in Photoshop?

I'd like to link and lock entire clips of video and audio tracks, as I might in Photoshop, so that I can insert some material ahead of this group without having to move each separate tack in my timeline. I have a group of clips which works well together now, and it would be so nice to be able to link them, lock them together as on unit, and just insert the new material into the timeline ahead of this piece. Any ideas?

alann
What version of Premiere Elements and on what computer operating system?
For now, a generalized Premiere Elements Windows answer.....
You would select all the clips (all at one time) that you want to move together, then Clip Menu/Group.
Or right click anywhere in the selection to bring up the pop up menu including the Group option.
Have you been there and done that yet?
Please supply more information so that we can fine tune the information that you seek.
Thank you.

Lost 200+ pictures and many videos and sound clips

So, I wanted to update the iOS to iOS5, but something went wrong. It backed up (so I wasn't too worried), but it didn't restore properly. Error "-1". A pretty much unknown error. I tried again 2 day's later, and it worked like a charm.
BUT, in the 2 days, I went to a championship DTM race, about 600km (370 miles) away, shot over 200 pictures and many many videos and sound clips. We even stopped at the Nürenburgring Nordschleife before the DTM on the way and took the car to the track a few times. Awesome.
After the restore, I had all my previous stuff back, but lost all of the Nürenburgring Nordschleife and DTM pictures... Is there any way to get those back? iTunes restored my iPhone without asking me! So I lost everything as soon as I started up iTunes...

Is there any way I can retrieve them? I had the back up plus but even it only has my pictures that I have taken since then and the 30 random pictures that it didn't delete. I noticed they were all gone after an update had occurred. Any help would greatly appreciated.
Have you taken the SD card out and put it into a computer or something to see if they are there or not? That would be my first thing to try.

Accessing stored videos and songs

I have my ipod set up to work as a hard drive. I would like to be able to access my video files that I have installed through itunes so I do not need to store duplicates when transferring them between computers. I found :\ipod_control\music, (hidden files in windows), but the files are organized into strange folders with strange names. They are playable and easily transferable from that folder, but it doesn't distinguish between music and video. If I start organizing things will it cause problems with my ipod and is there a way for the ipod to organize it for me. Thanks.

You cannot "organize" the folders on the iPod. As soon as you move a file or rename a folder, it will get "lost."
I think (purely speculation) Apple does this to make it harder to steal music (it's a real pain to steal an individual album off someone's iPod by just exploring it).
