Copying video clips into iPod

I have a video ipod. I have some short video clips that were converted to the iPod format (H.264) at its desired screen size (320 x 240) using a shareware program called MPEG Streamclip.
The clips import into iTunes just fine. They play i iTunes, etc.
However trying to drag them into the iPod gets a flag saying they can't be transfered because "it can not be played on this iPod".
I dont think I'm doing anything wrong. Using 'get info' on the clip shos it to be h.264 & 320 x 240.
using OS X 10.4.10 & iTunes 7
Any suggestions?
Thanks

Is there a way to copy referenced video clips into the iMovie library?

When I import video clips into an iMovie event it seems that iMovie uses only a reference to the file. When files are moved things get horrible broken soon. I noticed that iMovie does actually copy video clips into your library when you convert your library from iMovie'11 to iMovie'13. Is there a way to copy video clips into the iMovie library when importing them so that they don't get lost?

Import video clip into Photoshop

Seems when I attended an Adobe NAB seminar they said that it is possible to import a video clip into Photoshop to use tools, like clone, to remove objects from the clip. Is this possible and if so, is there a tutorial outlining the process. Thanks,

Thanks Jim,
Went there and could not find a clip amoung the numerous ones available. Great resource by the way. I used many combinations so search words and nothing came up. Can you give me the search words I need or do you have a title for the clip? This will help me navigate that site and get to the meat of what I need. Thanks,

How do I insert a video clip into the timeline?

Do you happen to know how I could insert a video clip into the middle of a movie like you do in FCP? Can you add tracks and insert the clip above the spot i need to change for each movie.
I don't want to render the whole movie (convert it into a MPeg2) each time.

No - DVD timelines are a little different to FCP. If you need to add a clip to the stream, you need to split the exisitng clip (you could trim it back to where you want to insert the new piece) and drag the new piece onto the same timeline. If you trimmed the existing piece then add another instance of it to the timeline and trim the new part from the left until you get to what you want as the out point.
If you have a collection of video clips on your DVDSP timeline, simply dragging a new one on will shuffle the others along appropriately. However, the audio will not shuffle with them, and you'll end up moving it all manually.
The very best thing is to create the timeline precisely as you want it in FCP and encode it to MPEG2 before bringing it in to DVDSP. Remember that DVDSP is not an editor, it is a place to assemble your work - it won't do anything remotely like FCP in that respect.

How do i put Video clips into Imovie, Without Iphoto?

Im using Imovie for a school project, and i need to put video clips into it. But for some reason my mac doesnt have Iphoto, and i've read online that the only way to do this, is through Iphoto??? Does anybody know otherwise?? please help!!

If you have a supported camcorder or camera you should be able to import your video directly to imovie from the camera. If the video is already on you computer, select the imovie File menu, then select import to library and navigate to the movie files you want to import. The article below should help you

Importing video clips into slide shows

I often insert video clips into slide shows. They mix nicely with pan and zoom still photos. However, the type of video clips that can be inserted is very restricted. Why is this?
Elements can deal with a wide variety of video formats but, as far as I can see, only AVI and WMV videos can be imported into slide shows. Compact digital cameras typically use AVI, MOV and MP4 formats. My camera produces MPG videos, which I cannot import. I have to convert the clips into AVI format and reimport these into Organiser etc - which is very fiddly. I am considering buying a new camera that produces AVI video clips as standard.
Why is the choice of video formats so limited? I cannot find a list of allowable formats on the Adobe site.

Hi David
Thanks for this. I tried that, but again, Streamclip only imported content from the first clip, ignoring the rest...on further inspection, all the VOB files were sub-divisions of the the first item (in essence, the system had chopped up the first recording into sections and formatted them as VOB files, but failed to do that for the remaining content of the DVD).
I booked an appt with a Mac Genius today and he downloaded Handbrake and this appears to be the way forward - you can isolate any of the content from the DVD, and save into either avi or mp4 files. I currently don't need Streamclip, since after my selection's been saved unto the desktop it can be dragged into iMovie and edited from there. I'll be keeping Steamclip though...after all of the aggro, it seems to good to be true!
Thanks again for responding to my query. Really appreciated that you took the time.

How to combine video clips into one video clip using FCPX

I typed this into the search engine but could not come up with anything. How do you combine Video clips into one Video clip using FCPX? Thanks in advance.
Gar

The simple answer is to put the clips together in a project in the desired order and export (oops, the new word is share [YUK!]) a master file.
But maybe you should say a little more about the clips to determine whether the answer I've given is relevant to yor situation.

How do I get video clips into Organizer from Elements?

I have broken my raw video into pieces in elements but can't get it to import into organizer.
I am using Elements 11 Trial.

The video is actually a football highlight film for our son and came to us as a single mp4 file with about 60 plays of video on it.
What I am trying to do is
1) Cut it down into 60 individual videos (which I did and currently have in my project).
2) Save the pieces off as individual video clips.
3) Get the ability to rank/rate each video and select the 25 or so that will make up the final video.
4) Polish/edit those that make the grade.
5) Organize and assemble.
Does this make sense?

I am using Elements 11 Trial.Place the "Work Area Bars" (located on the time line) so that only a "piece" is covered. Then "Share" to a computer file. Pick a file type that suits your needs. Be sure to check the box titled "Share WorkArea Bar Only". Unfortunately, the clip piece will be re-encoded. PrE11 will do that well, but not perfect because any encoding always seems to loose a little. You did not say what camera you are using. The software that came with my Sony and Panasonic camcorders is much better for splitting clips into smaller clips. Some sort of magic is in them where re-encoding does not take place. The pieces have the same picture quality as the original.   So, when I do what you want, I break it into pieces with the camcorder software, the put the video together in PrE with all the creative tools it offers. Bill

Assembling still photos and video clips into one video presentation.

This is partly a Photoshop Elements and Premiere Elements (both version 7) question, so hopefully not posting to the wrong group (there doesn't seem to be a Premiere Elements forum anyway)!
I am currently putting together a video/slideshow presentation, initially for display directly from a computer (to data projector) and then ultimately to end up on a DVD. The presentation consists of digital and scanned photographs (prints and transparencies) and video clips. I successfully put together a slideshow of all the stills with Photoshop Elements, inlcuding music etc. I then output the slideshow to Premiere Elements, so that I could merge it with my already edited video clips.
The output process works smoothly enough, but as soon as I run the completed presentation, the quality of the imported slideshow is nothing short of woeful! Each image is badly pixellated and all the transition effects are mangled - in short, it is unwatchable. As it turns out, simply adding a single, still image to Premiere Elements results in a very poor final image. Drop the exact same video clips and still images into Windows Movie Maker and the quality is spot on (as is playing the slideshow after outputting it as a WMV file and playing via any player capable of playing WMVs).
Trying to go the other way, ie importing video clips into Photoshop Elements, pretty much always results in it crashing!
The two products are marketed to "work together", but they are an abject failure in this regard!
OS is 64 bit Vista Ultimate.
I've tried searching the manuals and online help, but could find nothing of any help. I've sent an e-mail to Adobe support, but have received no response from them (after three weeks).
I'm hoping that someone may be able to point out something that I may have missed, or offer some tips and tricks.
Thanks.

There is a separate forum for Premiere Elements at
http://forums.adobe.com/community/premiere/premiere_elements
Also, my favorite place for Premiere Elements questions (including slideshows) is a site started by some Adobe Premiere Elements forum regulars at http://muvipix.com/phpBB3/index.php Forum signup is free. There are multiple subforums at that site and because most of your questions are Premiere elements, I suggest that you post under the "PE version 7" subforum.
Wherever you decide to post, I suggest that you include in your post my comments and the answers to the questions that I asked here.
1 -- It has FAQs over to the right of the thread listing on the Adobe Premiere Elements forum. One of those FAQs that is relevant to your current workflow is
What resolution should my photos be in Premiere Elements?
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/431851?tstart=0
2 -- Also, I suspect that you used Pan and/or Zoom on some of your photos when creating the Slide Show withinn Photoshop Elements.
For those photos, you want the Premiere Elements setting of Scale to Framesize set OFF.
3- There are also other considerations such as
-- which Project Setting you are using in Premiere Elements?
-- what dimensions are you using when you export from Premiere Elements to the WMV file?
-- what is the resolution for the projector on which this video will initially be displayed?
4 -- I do agree with your approach of adding the video in Premiere Elements.
5 -- The mangled transitions needs more detailed info in order to discuss.
Tthe timing of transitions is definitely different between the Photoshop Elements slideshow editor playback and the Premiere Elements output: this gives some people serious problems and for others it is not significant. I don't know yet if that is your problem.

How to copy Video files to iPod without using iTunes???

Hi there ..
I have the latest iPod Video 80GB.
If I copy video files larger than 640 pixels iTunes stops me.
But, I don't trust apple folks.
In the previous iPod it didn't matter the width unless you had a total number of pixels inferior to 480x480 (Mpeg4)
Now iPod 5.5G says 640x480=307200 pixels is the max.
If I have a 736x416=306176
But iTunes doesn't let me copy such files into the iPod.
I WANT TO check if at Apple just don;t want me to have such files copied or if the iPod itself can't play them for real!!!!!
SO Anyone knows of an utility or a way to just copy such files to the iPod so that the database is refreshed and I can test them???
thank you.

Bringing Movie Clips into ipod Touch

I know there is a really simple answer to this, I'm just not seeing it (:
I'd like to bring some .avi movie clips into the ipod but I don't seem to see how to do this. I've tried doing a drag and drop of the clip into the box under the 'Movie' tab in itunes, but that didn't work. Is there a place to put the clips where itunes sees them?
Thanks in advance for any help.
Stew

You have to use itunes. Open the file in itunes and it will be added to the library and can be synced to your ipod if you select it in the movie pane.
You can add videos other than those purchased from the iTunes Store to iPod touch,
such as videos you create in iMovie on a Mac or videos you download from the
Internet and then add to iTunes.
If you try to add a video from iTunes to iPod touch and a message says the video can’t
play on iPod touch, you can convert the video.
Convert a video to work with iPod touch: Select the video in your iTunes library and
choose Advanced > “Create iPod or iPhone Version.” Then add the converted video to
iPod touch.
