Converting QuickTime Videos For iPod, iTunes Crashes on Windows

I was trying to convert some Quick Time movies (RvB Seasons 1-3) for my iPod, this is not my first time doing this but this is the first time I am having this problem. One day I open iTunes and try to convert these movies, like 10 seconds later the windows thing comes up and says “iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close” in the technical stuff it gave me it pointed to quicktimeessentials.qtx as the problem. So I searched for this file and deleted it Problem Solved! Or at least I though so when iTunes was able to convert my videos but now no Quick Time video will play right, so then I put the Quick Time file back where it was supposed to be, I can now watch my Quick Time movies but iTunes keeps crashing. Somebody Please Help!

hiya!
I can now watch my Quick Time movies but iTunes keeps crashing.
just checking. is it currently crashing with that message when you try to launch itunes, or just when you try to convert those videos?
if it's just when you convert those videos, let's check to see if it's a problem with every file, or just the ones you have at the moment. will itunes crash if you try converting the sample file from this document?

  • Lost sound when convert Quicktime video to ipod video

    Hi,
    when I use iTune to conveert a video file from quicktime (or others) to ipod/iphone video file I lost the sound!
    I'll appreciate any help!
    Thanks!

    QuickTime expects video files with separate video and audio tracks, but many MPEG formats used a muxed (multiplexed) single track that contains both. Therefore, when you convert videos in iTunes to iPod format they only show the video and no sound since iTunes (really QuickTime) is not looking for the audio track within the video track and it gets lost.

    One way to work around this is to use MPEG Streamclip to convert the files to fix this issue...

    but there are other applications besides MPEG Streamclip you can try as well.

  • Converting videos for ipod trouble need help plz

    i always have to convert my videos for ipod but when i do, there is no more sound. how do i fix this?

    Julia,
    You need to format the iPod for Windows use.
    Download the iPod Updater, install this to your computer, restart the computer, run the Updater, then connect your iPod when prompted, then follow the set up procedure.

  • Converting an MPG video for ipod.. please HELP

    Hello... i'm sorry about my bad english...
    I tried many times converting videos for ipod, it allways convert them and than they become without the sound... someone can help me with that?
    Thanks
    Leo

    Quicktime or Quicktime Pro (which iTunes uses) don't convert "muxed" ( muxed means multiplexed where the audio and video are stored on the same track) video files properly. It only plays the video and not the audio.
    See:iPod plays video but not audio.
    You need a 3rd party converter to convert the file with both audio and video.

  • Itunes converrts videos for ipod but then thay have no SOUND!!! Help please

    Itunes converrts videos for ipod but then thay have no SOUND!!! Help please
    Just bought it a couple of days ago, and its doing this!!! why doed the videos now both on my ipod and itunes not have sound?

    Your source video file is probably muxed.
    Neither QT Pro or iTunes has the ability to successfully encode a muxed video file with audio. You'll end up with video and no audio.
    You'll need to use some other third-party software to do the conversion. There's a handful of software available. Just search the forums and you'll find many titles mentioned.
    Try MPEG Streamclip.

  • Convert QuickTime Video Files for Offline Viewing

    How can I convert QuickTime files for offline viewing?

    Even with QuickTime Pro, it is possible to protect a QuickTime video file from being downloaded directly. But, if it's not specifically protected, QuickTime Pro will allow you to download many QuickTime videos.
    If you come across a video that is protected, you may be able to use a utility like to record the video as it's playing on your screen and then save it as a stand-alone file.

  • What is the best way to format Videos for ipod touch?

    What is the best way to format Videos for ipod touch? Used Quicktime Pro/ Export (iPhone setting). Videos aren't as crisp as downloaded Videos. Compressors /ipod video Setting also looks crapy (with bitrate med & High). What should I use?

    Visualhub is a transcoder with multiple input and output formats with specific setting for iPod,iPod touch. Costs around $19-used to work great but recently everything I convert suffers audio crash than closes out the player. Hopefully they will fix it.
    Elgato H.264 hardware transcoder is $99 dollars(USB stick that plugs in to Mac)-speeds up encoding of any file quicktime can handle, settings for apple tv, iphone/touch, ipod,Sony PSP. Worth the cost if you transcode a lot of video for the Touch or own an elgato HD tuner. Files work flawlessly and look great.
    Mpeg streamclip-free. Works great, has presets or can customize the output.

  • When I convert my Videos to iPod there is no sound when I try to play them.

    Help Please,
    I have some music videos in iTunes and I have hit the advanced button and converted the selection to iPod. It converts them so that I can put them on my iPod but there is no sound at all when the video plays on my iPod. When I do this procedure to convert the video on iTunes it pops up another copy of the video on the iTunes movie section which I am assuming is the converted video. If I click on the original video on iTunes the video will play and I hear the music. If I click on the converted version that goes to my iPod I see the video but hear no sound. I hope you guys have some help for me.
    Thanks in advance.
