Cut video clips from Apple Imac

Hoping somebody might be able to help me out..I'm not very techie when if comes to video editing etc on my Apple Imac. I have a number of large video files that are far too long in playing length to post to you tube so I am looking for the easiest way to cut 10 minute clips from each video file so I can upload them onto You Tube. I don't want to have to shell out money for software so what would be the simple way of doing this.

I have iMovie 09 and tried everything but I cannot see anyway to achieve this- Is it possible to do it with iMovie 09 or do I have to get iMovie 11?

    Im having a problem with the dvd quality, I'm using compressor to convert the video fils from apple prores to mpeg2 .It doesn't matter how long my video is even if its just 5 minutes  I'm getting cut edges/lines  in the video specialy if i have titles it comes up really bad , I took the same video to a friend of mine who have PC and he uses Encore , did the encoding there and it was just fine no problems! BTW I tried using doferent setings in compressor from CBR and VBR I even pushed up the setings to 8 or 9 BR and still no luck !
    does anyone have any idea ?
    Thanks in advence ...

    Let's focus attention on just the Sony. (What model and what resolution are you shooting?)
    For now, I'll assume you're shooting 1080i.
    Take a representaive clip  into a new sequence. Add a title.
    In your sequence, make sure field dominance is set to Upper.
    Set render settings to Pro Res 422.
    After rendering, export QT self contained.
    Import into Compressor (I'm now referring to v3.5).
    Select the 90 minute Best quality DVD preset.
    Open frame controls and turn on (click the gear icon). Set Resize filter to Best.
    Submit burn and check quality on TV.
    Good luck.

  • Importing video clips from iMac

    Hi all,
    I've just purchased a new iPhone 4 and can't seem to be able to import video clips from iPhoto onto the phone. Is there a particular format the files need to be or do I need another app or converter?
    Thanks in advance,
    Scott

    Toad, you are incorrect...
    However it is a PIA to get it to work.
    In very un-Apple-like fashion, it is a several step, unintuitive process that requires another program. Luckily a free program...
    1. Convert your file with Handbrake (http://handbrake.fr/) and use the iPad profile. (P.S. My original .mov file needed to be converted to work on iPad. The built-in "Create iPad or Apple TV version" function in iTunes would not work for me. I received a "The video is already in the correct format" message. Annoying...)
    2. Put the converted file into a folder
    3. With your iPad connected to your computer, go to iTunes and select the "Photos" tab on your iPad.
    4. IN the "Sync Photos From:" drop down box choose "Select folder" and select the folder that contains your video.
    5. Check the "Include Videos" check box.
    6. Hit the "Sync" button
    7. Now the video will be available in Keynote. No desktop version required...
    P.S. I am a PC... Not a Mac.

  • How do i email a video clip from my iphone

    How do i email a 6 minute video clip from my iphone

    Open Photos > select video > tap forward icon (rectangle with arrow) > Email Video.  If the video file is too large for your, or the recipient's email server, it may not get delivered.
    You need this - it's all in there:

  • I'm struggling to move video clips from my macbook pro to my ipad. a few play but most won't go over in the sync. What format do I need to clips to be in?

    Greetings. I'm attempting to sync video clips from my macbook pro to my ipad 2 without much success.  A few videos go over and the rest can't. What format do they need to be in?  Thanks for any help you can give.  JWA

    QuickTime Pro costs a few buck but is a good tool to have on hand as it can open and transcode a wide variety of video and audio formats.
    It's like a Swiss Army knife for media files.

  • Transferring video clips from iPad

    I transferred MP4 (MPEG-4) video clips from a GoPro camera to my 1st gen. iPad. Now I am trying to figure out how to transfer them to my PC so I can edit them. I can watch them on the iPad, but when I try to view them from my PC they do not show up (the still photos do). Apple has not been any help. Any ideas or recommended software?
    The files are too big to email from the iPad.
    Thanks!

    You could try whether apps such as Simple Photo & Video Transfer Lite (free app, there is also a paid version called Simple Transfer) work - they transfer via wifi, though I don't know whether they'll work for your clips.

    Cheers

    Go to system preferences-quicktime and under the browser tab make sure 'play movies automatically' and 'save movies in disk cache' are selected. Also under the streaming tab select '1.5 Mbps T1/Internet/LAN' is selected for speed, and enable instant on with a short delay.

  • Problem importing video clips from Panasonic SDR-S10

    Hi, can anyone help? In iMovie I try to import my video clips from my Panasonic Camcorder SDR-S10 and it shows clips there, but when you click on them the clip icon disappears. Try to import and it doesn't import anything? Any ideas.
    Anyone know a workaround for importing clips from this camera I get a lot of problems with a Mac when using this one.
    Thanks
    Hayley

    I have the same camcorder and have used Visual Hub to convert the .mod clips to .dv files which work just fine with iMovie. You can try out Visual Hub for clips less than 2 minutes in length in the trial mode. I think it costs about $20. Also, I've heard you can buy an mpeg2 plug in for Quicktime Pro that will let you use those files. I think that is also about $20.
    Also, search the apple discussions for ".mod" and you'll find a lot of other similar questions to the one you asked.
    Hope this helps.

  • Import video clip from other project

    How to get video clip from other project?
    I have been saving all the clips into one huge project and I think it is time to divide them into different projects.
    Also, how do I know if the project would fit into one DVD when I burn it?
    Your help is greatly appreciated.
    Thank you,

    You need iDVD for that.

  • Playing video clips from web sites ?

    Hi.
    I am unable to view video clips from most websites. The frame with the video appears on the page, but I am unable to play the video clip. Why is that? And how can I get to view video clips from within the web page?
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    At the time the iPhone came out there was flash lite.
    It was based on a 5 year old version of flash, would not play most flash content on the web.
    Recently, adobe just released flash mobile 10 beta.
    The demo I saw crashed the browser or caused very jeky scrolling on web pages. Also kills the battery.
    Official release is slated for sometime at the end of the year.
    Neither version provides a good customer experience, so why would apple use it?

  • Cannot delete a video clip from iPad, the Edit button doesn't appear ?

    With iMovie for iOS (iPad) I try to permanently delete a video clip from my iPad.
    I follow the article http://support.apple.com/kb/PH3186. But even if the video clip I want to delete is not used in a project, I simply do not find the Edit button in the upper-left corner above the Video browser as mentionned.
    This is a screenshot
    the Ipad is running iOS 5.1.1 (9B206), the video are not stored in 'pellicule'
    Am I crazy ?
    Thank you for any help.

    Did you shoot the video in iMovie?
    Or did you shoot it via the camera app?
    If it was shot in the camera app, then it needs to be deleted in the Photos app.
    Can you see the video in the photos app?
    You can permanently delete a video clip from your device as long as it’s not in the Camera Roll or the Photos app.
