Converting i-movie to mpeg

I want to use a digital photo frame to show my i-movie. The frame says it takes mpeg format. I can convert my i-movie to mpeg4 but when I put the flash drive into the frame it doesn't seem to find the file. I don't know if that is because I saved it as MPEG-4 or if there is something else I'm doing wrong. What can I do?

Hi Joseph,
Welcome to forum.
My suggestions are;
First, avoid to use QTPro if you plan to convert 2 hrs movie.
Second, use "Search" tool, to find out "No audio" problem in this forum. There are so many posts about "No audio"
Third, see this ;

After converting my movie into mpeg 4 format..

The movie works perfectly fine on my i tunes, but when i drag it into my i-pod it doesent do anything..It doesent import or anything(I followed the manual) any suggestions on whats wrong?

All you need to do is find the video on your computer and drag it into the iTunes window. Then, right-click it (in iTunes) and in the menu that pops up, choose the option "Convert Selection For iPod". It will process for a while, depending on how long the video is, and then when it is done you can drag it across to your iPod.
I don't know why people mess around with all these third-party converters.

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.

ITunes 11 has converted some songs to Quicktime movie format. How can I convert them back to MPEGs? format

iTunes 11 has converted some songs to Quicktime movie format. How can I convert them back to MPEGs?

I didn't mess with the iTunes Media folder previously, so I don't think that was the cause. Anyway, I manually fixed most of the songs, but I still can't figure out how to fix the movies that became listed as songs.
Here is a screenshot of what it looks like when I click on "Get Info" for one of the movies (which has ended up in the music section on iTunes):
There is no option to change the media kind to "movie" or "video" even though it is a movie and it still plays as a movie if I press play.

Convert WMV files to MPEG and/or get Quicktime plug-in for WMV and AVI

Hi Apple experts,
I need to convert some WMV files to MPEG format or something that will play natively on a Mac in QuickTime or iTunes.
I was advised that the VLC app that will convert WMV to MPEG4?... but the page at the URL below indicates that this version of VLC is a player and does not say anything about converting WMV to MPEG...
http://vlc-download.com/download-vlc/?gclid=COrY_NKghKYCFQN7gwoduQy4qA
I would like to convert WMV files to MPEG so they will play in QuickTime or in iTunes on a Mac by just double-clicking them... for family members with Macs like me.
I am working on a PC where I am right now, but I have Macs at home and at work. I am on a PC for the time being at a friends place and I've produced a few .wmv files in Windows Live Movie Maker 2011. (Sorry Steve, it's just for a test).
QuickTime will not play WMV files, nor AVI files, but it indicates that it can use a plug-in to do so, but the QuickTime webpage for plug-ins that it takes me to doesn't have any plug-ins for WMV or AVI format files.
Of course the Windows Media Player plays the WMV and AVI files, but is there also a way to make them play in QuickTime or iTunes besides converting them?
Thanks so much,
numetro

Hi QTKirk,
I would like to be able to just give my family these files on a CD for high-res viewing on a computer, in addition to the DVDs that I have made for their TVs.
Since I don't control what they install on their computers, they don't necessarily have Flip4Mac on their Macs like I do... I just want them to be able to play MPEGs from a file on a CD or on their hard drives by simply double-clicking them.
After working with the recommended VLC player that also allegedly converts WMV files to MPEGs, for 8 hours, I have a result with the 7th attempt that mimics the worst kind of modern digital art that I've ever seen... I wish I could plug in the screenshot of the MPEG video that VLC produced... completely useless garbage.
Are there any other suggestions for a converter that simply handles converting WMV to any kind of MPEG file?
FFE was going to be the one that I tried until I read a post about VLC... that turned out to be a waste of 8 hours of sleepless time.

MPEG Streamclip with the Perian plug in should work.
Both are free.

You'll need to clarify your question. MPEG-1 or MPEG-2?

Convert AVI/MOV to WMV

I'm looking for a program to convert avi/mov files to wmv, preferably freeware/cheap shareware, so that I can stream movies to my 360. I know there's flip4mac studio pro, but $99 is just a little excessive for something that's basically just a stop gap until Nullriver puts support for mpeg files in Connect360. In any case, any help anyone can give would be much appreciated.

Convert Keynote slideshow to MPEG

Hi,
For my grandma's 80th birthday, I created a slideshow in Keynote. Everybody loved it (hooray Apple!) and wants a copy, so I tried exporting the slideshow as a movie.
But Keynote exports the slideshow into 2 files - the movie and the audio track, both in .mov format. I'd like to combine the 2 into a single file.
Also, the final output should be in MPEG format so that my relatives can view it in Windows Media Player without having to download and install Quicktime. Yes, I know.. I tried to enlighten them, but it would be easier teaching an old dog new tricks than to teach my very unsavvy relatives.
So, what's the best way to combine the 2 Keynote .mov files into a single MPEG (or other WMP-friendly) format? The best solutions for me will involve iMovie, or Quicktime Pro, or open source programmes like ffmpegX.
Thanks for your help in advance!
iBook G4 14" Mac OS X (10.4.4)

Hi Kyn,
So I've had more time to play with the video and I managed to combine the audio and video tracks in Quicktime with the copy and paste technique you mentioned.
Now I need to convert it to mpeg format so that it will play easily on Windows. (The video is for my grandma, she needs it to be accessible as possible.) I've tried using ffmpegX (http://homepage.mac.com/major4) but mpeg encoding fails constantly.
Could it be my settings? I'm making a 800x600 movie. ffmpegX tells me that my best bitrate setting is 6000kbps. I've left it at NTSC framerate (29.97). Is that way too much?
Anyway else I can convert the video to mpeg? Thanks.

No Audio when playing newly converted video files to MPEG-4

I have recently converted several movie files using the "convert Selection for iPod". This has resulted in all my files being converted to MPEG-4 format. But when I try and listen to them within itunes, I get video but no audio.... can someone help please?! btw, I can listen to audio files in itunes fine(MP3's), just not the movie files.

Try using Videora or MPEG Streamclip to convert the videos; more information on this issue is available in this article.
