Creating a movie from 300 pictures

Hi,
Is it possible to create a short movie from 300 pictures which have been
created using Blender and are in PNG format (1920 x 1080 pixel).
I want to create a movie of 10 seconds (MOV, H.264, 20Mbps, 1080/30p).
(If it's too complicated to do using FCP X – is there a utility for this?)
Many thanks!

If as fox_m states the images are not named sequentially there is a neat app in the app store called Image Photo Bucket which I use to batch rename lots of images .. it can also rezize and much more

I have created a movie of vacation pictures on my windows movie maker (vista op system). When I open the timeline, select audio, and drag a tune from i-tunes, windows movie maker shuts down and no song is transferred. Are these systems incompatible

I have created a movie of vacation pictures on my windows movie maker. ( Windows vista) When I open the timeline, click on audio, and drag a song from itunes, windows movie maker shuts down, and the song is not transferred. Are these systems incompatible? Can I upload the movie to I tunes somehow and then add the music tracks? Thank you...

You may need to convert the file to mp3

Do I need multicam in order to create a movie from multiple cameras?

Do I need multicam in order to create a movie from multiple cameras? The old fashioned way is just to simply put multiple video clips into multiple video tracks in Final Cut, right? Then I can transition the tracks as I see fit.
Multicam in Final Cut Pro simply improves upon this by hard synching timecodes right?
As an amateur, do I really need multicam features in Final Cut Pro in order to make a movie from multiple camera angles?

Will it make your editing tasks more efficient? Not
likely. Multicam is an advanced feature of FCP. It
requires knowing how most of the application's basic
operations are performed.
I have to disagree with bog in that multicam is all about efficiency and being able to quickly set-up and edit what could normally take a lot longer. But he is totally correct in that it is a strange set-up with some strange behaviors so if you don't know what you're doing and plan accordingly it could take a lot longer and be a lot more frustrating than the 'old fashioned' way.
I think it's also important to note that multi-cam is way more than just the "real time" switching of the multiclip in the viewer as it plays back. If you can take time to learn the ins and outs of multi-cam then you can use some features on some jobs and other features at other times. An amateur can do anything that the FCP software because it's there in front of you so play play play!

Need help - creating QT movies from iPhoto slide shows

I am creating QT movies from slideshows in iPhoto. I then put the QT movies on a CD. I am having no trouble doing this, but if I give the CD to a Windows user, will she be able to view it? If not, is there any way to make it Windows compatible? Are there any other problems I should be aware of before I give these QT movies for Christmas gifts?

Any PC user that has QuickTime 5, or higher, installed will be able to view your iPhoto slide show movies on the CD.
You must use the Finder to guarantee a PC compatible CD, however.

I have been trying to create a movie from a project that is primarily stills and one video clip. I cannot successfully create the movie without iMovie shutting down unexpectedly. Any ideas for the cause of the problem?

I am getting an unexpected shut down of iMovie when I try to share a movie from a project that is made up of still pictures, one video clip and music. Have tried to create the movie several times with different formats and continue to get the message. When I removed all music I was able to create the movie without a problem but when I added the music back, I was unable to create the movie. I'm using iMoive 11' version 9.0.9
Thanks.
Bill

I'm no expert in iMovie, but I've found that processing memory (as well as sheer hard disk space for the project to 'turn around in') can be a big issue with constructing, editing, and distilling projects in iMovie. I've improved the success by moving 2gb of image files off to an external drive, but only really got moving again on an hour-long project by doubling RAM and again freeing up h/d space.
Some tunes are also an issue, but if you can see it in the iTunes list to place in your project, it should work okay... Does the project run with any other piece of music, or does just that one tune mess it up?
Good luck,
Laura

Creating DVD movies from divx and srt subs...

Hi people!
Just want to create a dvd movie with a divx movie and the subtitles in srt file format i downloaded,so to play it on my dvd player...
I suppose i must convert the movie first but i don't know to what format,with what program and the command i must use!
Afterwards how can i burn it to a dvd?For burning cds i am using k3b...Suppose i can do that job by selecting "New video DVD project",right?
Sorry for my English but i am from Greece...Thank you!

spumux, part of dvdauthor, is what you need to mux in the subtitles:
http://dvdauthor.sourceforge.net/doc/spumux.html
That will generate a complete mpeg movie. From there, dvdauthor will produce the correct files for a DVD filesystem. I haven't tried to produce a DVD in well over a year, and I've never worked with subtitles, so I can't get real specific.
So, first I would look into spumux and get that part of your movie handled. Then I'd go back to the Gentoo documentation to learn dvdauthor for the final output. I'm sure there must be some sort of GUI program to make this process a lot easier, but I don't know of any.

Creating mp4 movie from m4v elementary stream

Hello,
I have some mpeg 4 video elementary streams. Those streams were extracted from MXF proxy files originally recorded with Sony's XDCam. Quicktime (Pro) refuses to play those files (errors -2002, -2010 and -20,48).
Using ffmpeg and mp4ip I'm able to convert those streams into valid (muxed) mpeg 4 movies that Quicktime is able to play.
The problem with ffmpeg/mpeg4ip is that it might violate patents and is not suitable for applications you want to (re)distribute (like in my case).
Is it possible to create a valid mpeg 4 movie that contains my elementary stream using the Quicktime SDK?
Basically it should be something like wrapping an mpeg 4 structure around my elementray stream.
Regards,
Kai

Thanks for your suggestion, but the problem is that Quicktime refuses to open my elementary streams. The binary dump of such a stream looks like raw mpeg 4 data without any header information. Quicktime player reports errors -2002, -2010 or -2048 (changing from time to time). I was able to create files that can be used by Quicktime player wiht ffmpeg and mpeg4ip. But instead of using open source software with questionable patent backgroung I would prefer to use something "more save" like the Quicktime SDK.
What I need is a solution to wrap my elementary streams into a valid mpeg 4 structure.

Kai

Creating a hyperlink from a picture in a pdf that opens Outlook email

I use Adobe Acrobat 8.1 and am trying to create a link in a PDF so that with READER 7.0 or higher, when a recipient clicks on a picture (object) it will access Outlook and open up a new email that the recipient would complete and then send! Is it via a hyperlink? Not sure, and would appreciate any help that could be offered. Thanks.

There is a possibility this will not work reliably. For forms, the mailto submission requires MAPI on the client machine. That may also be true for any use of mailto. In that case, it will be dependent on the client machine configuration. On non-windows machines, I have no clue what might happern.

What is the best way to create VR movies from a PhotoShop panorama? QTPro?

I found that I have the most success making panoramas using PhotoShop rather than dedicated panorama programs like Panorama Maker. Now that I made a panorama I like in PhotoShop can I use Quicktime Pro to turn it into a VR that someone can navigate? I was hoping that PhotoShop could handle the export to VR but it apparently can do that.

I used PTMac under Leopard on my PPC G5. Not sure if it is still around but here is a sample file for MY BACK YARD. However, it is a dedicated app taking you directly from photos to VR movie or Panoramic views.

What export settings do I use to creat a .mov from a .MTS file?

Hello!
I have a .MTS file that needs to be exported to a .mov file for online submission guidelines. The picture quality is bad when there is movement. I inserted screen shots of the codecs for the native .MTS files and the export settings I used for a .mov files. I played around with the settings a lot. Thank you so much to anyone who helps, I really appreciate it :¬)

I will drink to that...

Is it possible to create a link from a picture's metadata to a test file?

Hi everyone,
I am looking for a way to get a direct link to the picture's deposited right of utilisation. I prefer a link in the picture's meta data to a text file - e.g. pdf or doc. Is that possible?
PC with Lightroom5.
Thanks a lot for help!

To build on Ian's suggestion, you can include URLs to files on the computer, e.g.
An easy way to construct such a URL is to go to your browser, give the Open File command (in Chrome, it's File > Open File), and then browse to the desired file. The browser will open the file, and you can copy the URL from its address bar.
If you don't like using the IPTC:Website field for this purpose, or if you want more than one field in which to store URLs, I think the Custom Metadata plugin would provide that capability. The author is very helpful and a frequent contributor here.
Finally, you might consider my Any File plugin. It lets you directly import files of any type into your catalog. For example, you could import the release PDFs for an image and stack the release and the image together.

How to create QuickTime movie from JPEG and Audio file

My Sony Cybershot allows me to record audio files for each picture. When I'm reviewing the images, I can listen to the audio. However, these files are stored separately as a JPEG and a WAV file (having identical filenames, diff extensions.
Is there an easy way to merge these two files into a QT Movie?
Can this be automated?
Does anyone know of an app or script that can do this?
Many thanks,
Shayne

None specific for your task that I know of.
You'll first want to convert the silly .wav audio file (match the capture settings) to a more modern format which will also reduce its file size by a factor of ten.

For some AppleScripts. Many no longer work with Tiger and QuickTime 7, however.
It may take some time but if you have hundreds to make it (Automator) can help speed up your workflow.

Sort movies FROM pictures

I can't figure this out for the life of me! I hope it can be done. I have over 5,000 pictures and movies in my iPhoto library. Everything is perfect!
But . . . I'd like to sort the movies and separate them from the still pictures. (There's maybe 500 movies).
Why? - I'd then like to export all the still images in one BIG export reducing their size to maybe half the dimensions. I figure I'll save about 10 gig this way - and the quality looks the same even at 2 to 3x enlargement. (Of course the entire 21 gig library is backed up via BackUp 3.1)
I can export all approx 5,000 pictures at one time and reduce the physical dimensions of them all at once - EXCEPT if any movies are mixed in - iPhoto won't let you modify the size.
Sooo . . . I want to separate the movies from the pictures - but nothing seems to let you do that easily!
Does anyone know how to do this - I can't be lookig and manually sorting thru 5,000 images.
Thanks a ton - if anybody knows how to do this!
Larry

You're welcome. I learn a lot by reading the forums, so I do what I can to pass it on.
You do have a choice with how you want to manage iPhoto on your laptop. You could move it entirely to an external drive and run it from the external. It's simple to do, saves lots of gigs on the laptop, but the downside is that you no longer have your iPhoto library on the laptop when you leave home.
An alternative is using an alias-based iPhoto library on the laptop. It still saves lots of space, but enables you to see your iPhoto library thumbnails when you have your laptop away from your external drive. There are some other limitations, too. But it may be worth it if you want to free up disc space on the MacBook.
