Converting from quicktime to flv

I need to convert a quicktime video to an flv format that is progressively downloadable on the webe. How can I do that? I am on a mac.

http://www.adobe.com/products/mediaencoder.html
That's what I use if I have to make an FLV. These days I try to keep things HTML5 friendly (MP4).
Unfortunately there AREN'T any trial versions of CS6 or CS5 available. It's part of some Creative Suites (I use Master Collection which has it). If you only need to convert one or two, you may want to download a CS6 trail here: http://prodesigntools.com/adobe-cs6-direct-download-links.html
You need to follow the instructions CAREFULLY. You MUST login with your Adobe ID and refresh the page, or the download link won't work.  Design &Web Premium, Production Premium and Master Collection have Media Encoder in them AFAIK.

  • Does anyone know a good converter from quicktime movies to dvd format?

    Does anyone know a good converter from quicktime movies to dvd format?

    I'm guessing that your using One Step DVD . This will only work with one movie at a time.
    Create a new project and all you should have to do is drag your movies from your movie folder onto your iDVD project. You can add as many movies as you like but obviously you can't exceed the maximum total DVD size.
    Encoding can take a long time depending on the original file format, but you should be able to use pretty much any file format you can play with Quicktime.

  • PDF's from my Yahoo account converts from .PDF to .FLV

    Using Safari 5.05 - downloading PDF attachment from my Yahoo account it converts the file from .PDF to .FLV, then I have to open manually.  Works fine download through Firefox.  Any ideas why this happens in Safari?

  • Converting from QuickTime movie to AVI

    I see a lot of questions about converting from .avi to Quicktime but how do I accomplish a conversion from a Quicktime .mov format to an .avi format?
    The reason I ask is because I emailed someone a QuickTime movie and he could not view it and asked for me to send an .avi. I 'think' he's on a PC. Any suggestions? Thanks.

    You can use this freeware to make the conversion:
    Mpeg StreamClip
    or you can buy the QT Pro license and use it. With Pro you open the mov file and use Export in the file menu to make the conversion. More details on using Pro are in the QT 7 guide available here:

  • Text distortion when converting from QuickTime to Flash

    I am converting a QuickTime video to Flash format. Both have
    the same pixel dimentions - 200 x 150 - so I don't need to resize.
    I am using the default "flash 8 - high quality" settings.
    However, there is some large text on the opening screen of
    the video that looks fine before conversion, but is distorted after
    conversion. Any ideas how to fix?
    Edited to add that I am using the Flash 8 Video
    Encoder.

    +*Resize Filter: Nearest Pixel*+
    +*Deinterlace Filter: Fast (Line Averaging)*+
    Try changing these settings to better. The best setting will definitely look better than the fast settings. If your very picky about how your video looks and have the time to kill try best.
    Since your using multi-pass for the h.264 frame control, frame control will be read/used for each pass, adding (a lot) to the time of the encoding. One work around is to use Pro res to encode the video using frame control and then link (target) that encoding to the h.264 setting with frame control off.
    Here's an excellent tutorial on using the link (target) function in Compressor:
    http://pixelcorps.cachefly.net/macbreak-154-540p-h264.mov
    One thing you need to set for the h.264 encoding that isn't mention in the above tutorial. In the Inspector/Geometry window for the h.264 encoding you need to set the video dimensions. You'll notice it is set to Automatic with no video dimensions. For some reason you'll get an error if the video dimensions aren't set.

  • Converting from Quicktime/Midi audio files to MP3 format

    Before I upgraded to Tiger, I could use itunes to convert into mp3 form all the Quicktime Midi files that my chorus director emailed to me. Then I burned them on to cds so that everybody in the chorus could play their part in their car on the way to work and learn it really well.
    Well, now when I go through the exact same steps that are on the website (go to preferences, go to advanced, change encoder to mp3, etc etc) and itunes says that it cannot convert the file to mp3 because of "unknown error (-50)."
    Any ideas on how to get around this other than trashing my Tiger and going back to Panther?

    I bought and downloaded quicktime Pro and used it to convert my MIDI files. First you have to find your MIDI file on your HD. Then drag it into QuickTime. Then "export" the file and in the export window select aiff as the format. Save it to your HD. Then drag the aiff file into iTunes and it will play in iTunes (6.0.4 is the version I'm using) It will also burn to a CD from within iTunes. If you only want to play the file from within iTunes, you can skip the QuickTime conversion, and simply drag and drop the MIDI file from your HD into iTunes - iTunes will play it but won't allow the file to be burnt to a CD.

  • How do I convert from AVI or FLV to SWF file?

    First, I'm a complete Flash novice...this is the first time
    I've dealt with any FLV or SWF files. So, please forgive my
    ignorance on these topics. I have several small AVI files and have
    successfully converted them to FLV format via Premiere Pro CS3 and
    Adobe Media Encoder. But the client is also asking for SWF files of
    the same videos. I've looked and looked for a way to save SWF
    files. I tried pulling the video into Flash CS3, and saving as SWF,
    but since I know nothing about using Flash, I don't seem to be
    doing it correctly...seems like I'm getting just a single blank
    frame. I've looked at the dozens of third party programs that claim
    to be able to convert FLV to SWF, but the one I downloaded "Free
    Video to Flash Converter" generated an SWF file that doesn't seem
    to be playable anywhere. If there is a click-by-click method for
    using Flash to perform the conversion, I'd be ever so grateful.
    Again, please forgive my Flash-ignorance. Thanks for your help.

    Why doesn't Flash have a built-in capability to convert FLV
    to SWF? It's an obvious need and there are 3rd party programs of
    varying quality that do it. Why should people who have already
    purchased Flash need to look for something that handles this OK and
    then install it on their machines?

  • Trying to convert from .mts to .flv

    I'm trying out Flash Video Encoder for creating .flv files to
    add to my web site. My Canon HD HG10 creates .mts video files,
    which aren't being uploaded when I try to "Add" them. This format
    is not in the drop-down list. Any suggestions?
    Scott

    Thanks, Tiago. Can you elaborate on how (e.g., what tools I
    should use) to convert to MPEG? I have the .mts files downloaded to
    my computer, and the ULEAD Movie Factory software can use them to
    burn dvds. Adobe Flash Video Encoder doesn't seem to recognize the
    .mts format, so how do I go about converting to .mpg so I can
    ultimately create FLV?

  • Audio off when converting from mov to flv

    I have an mov file that I am trying to convert with the media encoder, but when I run it through, it throws off the audio just slightly. I have tried converting to flv and mp4 with the same results. What is causing this? Can I fix it? I need to be able to convert the file so I can use it in a Captivate project.

    I resolved the issue.  I googled the issue and the answer was right there. Turns out that one audio clip (out of dozens in the project) was somehow corrupted. A small yellow triangle was the indication.  Once I deleted that clip all of the other audio came back into the project.  I simply pasted a fresh version of that audio clip into the project and the all was not lost.

  • Convert a movie from Quicktime to MPEG4 in MPEG Streamclip

    I want to convert a movie from Quicktime (.mov) which I created in Final Cut Express to MPEG4 in MPEG Streamclip to be able to see it on my Samsung TV. The problem is that the uncompressed movie, comverted only from Quicktome to MPEG 4, stops almost every moment on my Samsung TV. I have connected an external harddrive in NTFS there via USB 2.0 (Samsung TV cannot play movies in HFS etc.). The uncompressed movies are bigger than 4GB in Quicktime.
    I got the following information from Samsung (in German):
    "Sie berichten, dass Filme zum Laden stoppen, die auf Ihrem MacBook Pro flüssig laufen. Bitte beachten Sie hierbei, dass der Fernseher hinsichtlich Rechenleistung nicht mit einem Computer vergleichbar ist. Weiters verfügt der Fernseher über einen USB 2.0 Anschluss, was die übertragbare Datenmenge ebenfalls begrenzt.
    Die allgemeinen Spezifikationen für Videodateien finden Sie im Benutzerhandbuch ab Seite 248:
    http://downloadcenter.samsung.com/content/UM/201112/20111208190112921/Web_GSDVBE UA_GER.pdf
    Auf Seite 251 finden Sie für MPEG4-Videos folgende Beschränkung: Bei "mehr als 1280 x 720: max. 30 Frames".
    Als Alternative schlagen wir Ihnen vor, Ihr MacBook Pro per HDMI direkt an den Fernseher anzuschließen, die Videos auf dem MacBook Pro abzuspielen und den Fernseher als Monitor zu verwenden. In diesem Fall entfallen die vorher genannten Beschränkungen."
    I ask here how to use MPEG streamclip (free version; I use 1.9.2) so convert my movies into MPEG 4 so that I cann watch it on my Samsung TV.
    I filled out "Bildrate" "30" but this did not work. I have chosen less quality but there are still - less - interruptions and I find it laborious to test different versions of less quality so that it might work.
    I ask you also because I want to create my movies to give it to other people via the internet (f.i. via rapidshare) but I need a smaller size of my movies and do not know all the different TVs my friends have. I cannot imagine that it is not possible to create a movie in MPEG 4 that cannot be seen in many TVs via an external harddrive?

    I know that I can do that also in FCE. It takes much more time to convert a movie into MPEG4 than to export it as uncompressed movie in QuickTime which I can use f.i. in iDVD to burn a DVD or watch it on my MBP.
    But I don't know the versions of TVs of other people if I want to send them the movie via internet f.i. via mydrive.ch etc. which have limited space if used for free. So which settings to choose for an output in MPEG4?
    For my one use it is o.k. if the movie can be seen correctly in MPEG4 on my TV but I can also watch it via my MBP on my TV via HDMI.

  • When converting from a .wav to a .mov is there a loss of audio quality when using QuickTime?

    When converting from a .wav to a .mov is there a loss of audio quality when using QuickTime?

    When converting from a .wav to a .mov is there a loss of audio quality when using QuickTime?
    That would depend on your work flow. MOV is the generic QuickTime file container and is not related to any particular data compression format. If you perform a simple "Save" or "Save As..." action that merely copies the data in the WAV file to an MOV file, then the data remains unchanged and maintains its original quality. If, on the other hand, your transcode/re-compress the original data to a different compression format, then there is always the potential for some loss in quality. Depending on the codec and/or settings, the potential loss could be inaudible to severe.

  • Converting Quicktime to FLV Format

    How do you convert a Quicktime file to an FLV file for streaming on the internet?

    They added H.264 support the the latest Flash player. You do not need to recompile your SWFs to take advantage of it either. You just take an H.264 .mov and rename it to .flv. Flash player does not care about the extension - it looks inside the file to see what type of file it is - but the player was originally programmed to ignore files that don't have a .flv extension (I don't know why they didn't take this out).
    Try it. It will work, as long as you make sure you have the very latest version of Flash Player that came out about a month ago. I have read this subject extensively as I will be using the technology for my web site.

  • Converting FROM VCD/SVCD to Quicktime/iDVD Compatible

    (I'm not sure what forum this should go to)
    Is there a way to convert from VCD to an iDVD compatible format? I have a vcd that i would like to include on my dvd. Are there any tools to do this?
    Thanks!

    (XS)VCD format is different than most CDs and there is minimal error correction compared to data disks. Therefore you may have to use 3rd party apps to rip the material to the HD, and even then there may be problems.
