Converting wedding video from CD to USB

Hi there,
I don't know if anyone can help but we have our wedding video on cd. We would like to share with family but no one has disc drives (We have an iMac) . Is there an easy way to put onto a usb stick? Have tried just the drag and drop but that doesnt seem to wok.
Many thanks in advance if you can help

If the wedding video is on DVD it would have to be converted to a Quicktime movie; if you have permission to copy the video from the person who created the video, (the person who created it owns the copyright) you can use MPEGStreamclip.

  • Converting 5D video from 30p to 244p

    Hi,
      Is there a way to convert 5D video from 30p to 24p. Here's an example using a different program.  Sorry, I'm new when it comes to Premiere Pro so would love the assistance.

  • Converting the videos (from Vixia HF M40) to standard definition on a Mac (10.6 OS X)

    How do you convert the videos (from Vixia HF M40) to standard definition, for the Mac computers (10.6 OS X)?

    Hi venetiakelley!
    Thank you for posting. 
    Canon does not make conversion software, but there are 3rd party applications available that do convert video files from one format to another.  You can try doing an internet search for applications that will convert from one format to another.
    However, there should not be a need to convert the video to a standard definition format to be able to view it on your Mac.  Even Apple's own iMovie should support the files that come from the VIXIA HF M40 depending on the version you have installed.  If you are using iMovie and experiencing some trouble opening the files, I recommend that you contact Apple directly for further assistance with iMovie.  They may have some more information about the trouble you are experiencing.

  • Elements doesnt recognise my panasonic vdr -d250 camcorder. Does elements capture video from camcorders by usb. Camcorder has no firewire.

    does premiere elements capture video from camcorders using usb. my camera does not have firewire

    hotrodder19
    Major backup time regarding your "capture", "USB connection", "no firewire for camcorder".......
    Let us start again. Your question was interpreted as one concerning DV data capture into Premiere Elements capture window (requires a firewire connection).
    I just dug into the user guide for your camera...instead of a miniDV camcorder, I find a camera that records DVD-VIDEO to a DVD disc. Is that your camera's description? That puts a different complexion to the matter. Please confirm that you are recording to a DVD-VIDEO standard to widescreen on a DVD disc. If not that, then please explain with more details.
    If you camera is recording as I now believe, you do not need a firewire or USB connection.
    1. Place the finalized DVD disc in the DVD burner tray of your computer.
    2. If you are working with Premiere Elements 12 Windows, then set the project preset for NTSC DV Standard or Widescreen (or the PAL counterpart, depending on your computer setup), and then, in the Expert workspace of Premiere Elements 12, Add Media/"DVD camera or computer drive", Video Importer.
    This process copies (rips) video files (VOBs) of the DVD-VIDEO and allows you to put these video files on the program's Timeline for edits and export.
    Please let us know if we are now in sync on what you are seeking.
    Thanks.

  • Copying video from Macbook to USB stick

    Took about 200mb of video on my iPhone - downloaded to my Macbook. Now want to copy it to a USB stick to share it with a friend. How do I do it please? Put a USB stick in the Macbook and it didn't seem to recognise it.

    depending on your macbook model you may need a "converter", meritline.com/mini-hdmi-to-cvbs-converter-adapter---p-83103.aspx?source=fghdac& gclid=CO7J9NSU67QCFWGnPAodRBsAAw similar to this. Use a mini DVI to HDMI apple adaptor. if you have RGB connectors on your tv you want http://www.monoprice.com/products/product.asp?seq=1&format=2&p_id=8125&CAWELAID= 1329456201&cagpspn=pla&gclid=CKW25beg67QCFaGPPAodRHAAfg

  • Capture videos from rca to usb?

    trying to capture videos off the vcr. i'm using an RCA to USB cable. i  don't see the option anywhere. is it a limitation of the trial version  or it's not possible with premiere elements? is there an adobe software that will allow me to capture from my vhs? or do i have to use another software to capture then use PE to edit?

    You can't use most low-end capture cards or devices or capture video via USB if you plan to edit it in Premiere Elements, w. The resultant video won't be a format the program can work with.
    The FAQs to the right of this forum discuss DV bridges, devices which can capture almost any video as DV-AVIs, the video format Premiere Elements and virtually all PC-based video editors prefer to work with.

  • Downloading digital video from camcorder using USB

    I know this is not really a new topic, but I am new to all this and can't figure out how to post to an existing topic which addresses it. I found a posting which says I can download digital video by opening "Image Capture" and under preferences telling what I want done when a USB camcorder is connected. I find that preferences does not specifically ask about USB, but does ask, when a camcorder is connected, if I want to open Image Capture, IPhoto, or no application. I selected Image Capture, connected the camcorder through a USB port, set the camcorder to play/edit, and got nothing, no acknowledgement that the computer recognizes the presence of the camcorder. Now what?

    Well, I tried Firewire, which I thought myself would solve the problem. Bought a new Firewire cable because I have never had one. Plugged the 4-pin into my camcorder, and the 6-pin into a Firewire port on my eMac. Turned the camcorder on to Play/edit, which is the playback setting. No indication on the computer that the camcorder is connected. Tried Image Capture, iPhoto, iDVD, and iMovie. None of them gave me anything. I suppose there is a slim possibility that the cable is defective, but I don't have any other Firewire peripherals, so I don't know how to check it. Any suggestions on that or any other way to troubleshoot? I also tried playback of a video in the camcorder. It plays fine internally, but still no response from the computer.

  • Edit Wedding Video from Ritz yesvideo dvd in imovie, PLEASE HELP????

    Hello:
    I hope someone can help me with this. I had only the tapes from my wedding so I brought them to Ritz to have a simple dvd done. I asked them if I would be able to edit later and they said yes. Now when I watch it (on the dvd player or mac) it is like a real dvd, like bought but 3 hours of "boring" recordings. You know what I mean. It needs the editing but I do not know how to get it into imovie...
    Before I go back to ritz, can someone tell me how to do that, where I get my files and what to do so I can import it to my imovie library and start working?
    The dvd has a menu and chapters and all that, it says you can purchase a digital scrapbook for windows to edit everything, but obviously with my mac I don't need that and no one ever mentioned it to me either...
    Thanks for all the help I can get...
    Sabine

    DVDs are in a socalled delivery format (mpeg2), which isn't meant and made for any processing as editing...
    for using the iLife apps, you have to convert'em first, in recommended order, choose one of the following tools/workarounds:
    DVDxDV (free trial, 25$, Pro: 90$)
    Apple mpeg2 plugin (19$) + Streamclip (free)
    VisualHub (23.32$)
    Drop2DV (free)
    Cinematize >60$
    Mpeg2Works >25$ + Apple plug-in
    Toast 6/7/8 allows converting to dv/insert dvd, hit apple-k
    connect a miniDV Camcorder with analogue input to a DVD-player and transfer disk to tape/use as converter
    none of these apps override copyprotection mechanisms as on commercial dvds...

  • Macbook converting GoPro videos from MP4 to .Mov

    I have been recording in 4K with my GoPro camera, and my macbook would play the MP4 files no problem. I recently changed the resolution to 2.7K and now my Macbook will convert the (MP4) file to a (.mov) file before I'm able to play it. Does anyone know why?

  • Need to convert .m4v video to be editable in iMovie '09. Driving me insane!

    I am new to Macs as a whole, and have only owned my MacBook Pro for a month, now. I am skilled in iMovie '06, however, as it was a program I used at school for three years. I made some videos for my media class using iMovie '06 that I then exported to iDVD and burned. The original videos/files are at school. All I have are the DVDs. I'd like to put these videos online. I know how to use HandBrake to rip the video file off the DVD. For videos ten minutes or less, I've been able to use the .m4v file to upload to YouTube. However, I have three videos that clock in around 17 minutes, which YouTube rejects. All I want to do is open the files in iMovie and cut them in half. I know where I want to cut, and I don't want to do any editing of any kind.
    iMovie won't open .m4v files, however. So I don't know what to do. What program should I use to convert the .m4v video file to a format iMovie will open and allow me to splice the video?
    Is HandBrake a program for that and I'm just using it wrong?
    Or do I have to choose a whole 'nother program to rip the video file off the DVD.
    In short: these are my works, I want to know what FREE program to use to rip them from the DVD and be able to open them in iMovie '09 to cut them in half, or, which program to use to convert .m4v into a format readable by iMovie '09.
    Please tell me in idiot's terms. I'm not that proficient with video editing or computers, so I need it laid out clear and simple.
    Thanks!

    an m4v file can be renamed to mov!!
    First try that.. if you can play it your done. if you can not download perian.
    If perian can't.. then you can buy quicktime pro.
    I own quicktime pro and bough perian to support the video that quicktime pro didn't. When I convert avchd video from my camcorder on my G5 to something editable in imovie I use ffmpeg and also handbrake. handbrake created m4v files.
    All I do is rename them and Imovie can read them in.

  • What are people using to convert .3gp video files into something compatible with iMovie? Does Apple have SW to do this?

    I am trying to find the best and safest way to convert .3gp video from my Blackberry into a file format that iMovie will recognize.  I see lots of potential downloads, but I am hoping for some recommendations on which SW is most helpful.  Thanks.

    There is a free App called MPEG Streamclip from Squared 5. You can drag your .3gp into MPEG Streamclip. Then FILE/EXPORT TO QUICKTIME.
    For HD sizes (1280x720 or 1920x1080), choose Apple Intermediate Codec as the Video Codec.
    For smaller sizes, you can also use Apple Intermediate Codec, but h.264 will also work and will give a smaller file size.
    Then import this new file into iMovie using FILE/IMPORT MOVIES

  • I am attempting to convert 8mm video cassettes to dvd using a video cassette player, elgato video capture with rca/usb connections to the mac, editing in imovie and burning on idvd. The picture quality is awful. What can I do?????

    I am attempting to convert 8mm video cassettes to dvd using a video cassette player, elgato video capture with rca/usb connections to the mac then editing in imovie and burning dvd-r using idvd. The picture quality is awful. What can I do??????

    At what point is the video quality bad?  Is it bad on capture?  I would recommend using an s-video 1394 firewire converter instead.  They capture the video at a higher bit rate.  If you have a lot of 8mm tapes to capture, invest in a stand alone DVD recorder.  They capture and compress in one shot.  If you need to rip it back from the DVD into iMovie again, I would recommend using DVDxDV.
