Difference between iMovie and Movies

What is the differance between the 2

Also, in iMovie terms, a Movie is a kind of a Project as distinguised from a Trailer.
In a Trailer you add you clips to a pre-built template with graphic, title and music to simulate a Hollywood-style movie trailer.
In a Movie you either add your clips to a pre-built Theme with titles and graphics or start with no Theme and build a movie from scratch just you your clips.

  • What's the difference between iMovie and iDVD?

    What's the difference between iMovie and iDVD?

    iMovie enables you to edit video footage - typically from a video camera - add titles, effects, etc.
    iDVD enables you to create an authored DVD of your iMovie, complete with DVD menu, chapters, "extras", etc and can be played in a conventional DVD player.

  • Difference between .qt and .mov

    Hi all
    Please tell me what is the difference between .qt and .mov formats and when and where they are used. Also if there are any more formats related to Quick Time please brief or any links to any reference sections...
    thanks

    No difference except the file extension. The .mov extension should be used as .qt is very old and may not be understood by Web servers.

  • Difference between collect and move stmts

    hi
    anyone plz explain...
    1. Difference between collect and move stmts
    2. Badi and user exit.
    gowri

    Hi,
    1.COLLECT:COLLECT is used to create unique or compressed datsets. The key fields are the default key fields of the internal table itab .
    If you use only COLLECT to fill an internal table, COLLECT makes sure that the internal table does not contain two entries with the same default key fields.
    If, besides its default key fields, the internal table contains number fields,the contents of these number fields are added together if the internal table already contains an entry with the same key fields.
    If the default key of an internal table processed with COLLECT is blank, all the values are added up in the first table line.
    If you specify wa INTO , the entry to be processed is taken from the explicitly specified work area wa . If not, it comes from the header line of the internal table itab .
    After COLLECT , the system field SY-TABIX contains the index of the - existing or new - table entry with default key fields which match those of the entry to be processed.
    COLLECT can create unique or compressed datasets and should be used precisely for this purpose. If uniqueness or compression are unimportant, or two values with identical default key field values could not possibly occur in your particular task, you should use APPEND instead. However, for a unique or compressed dataset which is also efficient, COLLECT is the statement to use.
    If you process a table with COLLECT , you should also use COLLECT to fill it. Only by doing this can you guarantee that the internal table will actually be unique or compressed, as described above and COLLECT will run very efficiently.
    If you use COLLECT with an explicitly specified work area, it must be compatible with the line type of the internal table.
    In 'move' the actually data copies into another data field
    2.
    Difference between BADI and USER-EXIT.
    i) BADI's can be used any number of times, where as USER-EXITS can be used only one time.
    Ex:- if your assigning a USER-EXIT to a project in (CMOD), then you can not assign the same to other project.
    ii) BADI's are oops based.
    A. BAdI Definition
    1. SE18
    2. Enter the name for the BAdI to be created in customer namespace and press "Create".
    3. Enter a definition for your BAdI and on the interface tab enter a name for the BAdI interface. SAP proposes a name and it is pretty good. Meanwhile a BAdI class is also created which is not in our concern.
    e.g for "ZTEST", SAP proposes "ZIF_EX_TEST" for the interface and "ZCL_EX_TEST" for the class.
    4. Save your BAdI.
    5. Double-click on the interface name. It will pass to a Class Builder session to make you implement your interface. If you are not familiar to the Class Builder; it's a bit like Function Builder and it will be easy to discover its procedure.
    6. Save and activate your interface.
    B. Calling your BAdI from an application program
    1. Declare a reference variable with reference to the Business Add-In interface.
    e.g. DATA exit_ref TYPE REF TO zif_ex_test.
    2. Call the static method GET_INSTANCE of the service class CL_EXITHANDLER. This returns an instance of the required object.
    e.g.
    CALL METHOD CL_EXITHANDLER=>GET_INSTANCE
    CHANGING instance = exit_ref .
    3. After those two steps, you can now call all of the methods of the BAdI where it is required in your program. Make sure you specify the method interfaces correctly.
    C. BAdI Implementations
    1. SE19
    2. Enter the name for the BAdI implementation to be created in customer namespace and press "Create".
    3. It will request the BAdI definition name to which this implementation will be tied.
    4. Enter a definition for your implementation and on the interface tab enter a name for the implementing class. Again SAP proposes a name and it is pretty good.
    e.g for "ZIMPTEST", SAP proposes "ZCL_IM_IMPTEST".
    5. Save your implementation.
    6. To implement a method, just double-click on the method name and you will be taken to the Class Builder to write the code for it. Here you redefine the BAdI interface methods.
    7. You must activate your implementation to make it executable. You can only activate or deactivate an implementation in its original system without modification. The activation or deactivation must be transported into subsequent systems

  • What is the difference between avi and mov

    Hi FCP users,
    I am actually an audio guy, but I would like an answer on something.
    I work with Logic, and usually use quicktime movies when I am working to movies. But I am working with a client who is an Avid user and swears by avi files. Can someone explain to me the difference. My client explained to me that avi's are better than mov files. He claims their file sizes are bigger, so therefore there quality is better. He said there is some form of compression on quicktime movies which lessen the quality to avi, even if the mov is uncompressed apparently the quality is still less than an uncompressed avi. If this is not true, could someone give me the real big difference between the two.
    I thought is was more of a preference, like windows users prefer wav, and apple users like quicktime movies. Like with audio, there isnt a huge difference between aif and wav. Windows users prefer wav and apple users aif.
    Thanks in advance for any information.

    The vid guy has sent me some files to work with. So I am working in Final Cut to edit some of the video, and then sending it back to him. He is working on PC with Avid. What is the best. Should I convert the avi files he has sent to me to mov files. Then pull these into FCP, and then export it out as avi for him. Or should I export out as mov, and then he converts them to avi when he pulls it into Avid on his PC? Very confusing which is the best procedure between Mac and PC.
    Thanks in advance for any help.
    This is a disaster in the making. You can avoid being part of the train wreck by either renting an Avid, going to live at his house, or telling him to get a Macintosh.
    You must find the lowest common denominator video format that will work on both of your systems. That could be conventional DV, dunno, never used Avid and never tried to edit anything on a PC. But I can tell you this with absolute certainty, it will be easier and, in the end, much less expensive for one of you to adopt the other's platform for the duration of this project. The time you waste transcoding, arguing, formatting your drives, buying secondary products, fitting round pegs into square holes, and trying to find a workable solution (that will keep changing as the project gets more complicated) will cost you much more in terms of money out of pocket and creative frustration than simply buying/renting another station.

  • Differences between ".m4v" and ".mov"

    iMovie can post straight to mobileme or export a movie as a quicktime file. In the first case iMovie creates a ".m4v" file while exporting a quicktime it creates a ".mov" file. I might be wrong but it seems to me that the ".mov" is bigger than the equivalent ".mov" and I wonder what are the differences. Is the "mov" better than "m4v"?

    I might be wrong but it seems to me that the ".mov" is bigger than the equivalent ".mov" and I wonder what are the differences. Is the "mov" better than "m4v"?
    M4V, MP4, and MOV are simply containers. The same compressed H.264/AAC data can be contained in each.
    M4V - The M4V file container is used exclusively for H.264/AAC content either protected or unprotected. Limited use of other data tracks can also be found in this container such as "Chapter" or "alternate audio" tracks. This container can also be associated with external graphic data as normally seen in iTunes when "Artwork" is added. By default, this container normally opens in iTunes when double-clicked.
    MP4 - The MP4 file is much like the MP4 file container but may additionally hold MPEG4/AAC data as the primary video/audio compression format. It too may contain supplemental data tracks or be associated with external "Artwork" but, by default, opens in the QT player.
    MOV - The MOV file container is a generic file container which may contain up to 99 tracks of any valid audio, video, text, "Chapter", "Tween", ""Timecode", "sprite", etc. form of data. It cannot be associated with external "Artwork" but, like M4V and MP4, can have a designated "poster" frame. Any valid file saved using the "Save As..." File option is automatically placed in the MOV file container by default regardless of its original compression format and file container type.
    While there are "internal" differences, all three containers have the same basic purpose. It is likely these differences which you see when comparing "file size" even when the actual compressed audio and video data is exactly the same within the container.

  • Quick question: what is the difference between graphic and movie clips?

    What is the difference between the two symbols: graphic and movie clips? They both contain frames..?

    movie clips can have
    instance names : so they can be controlled via actionscript
    filters applied : drop shadow, glow, blur, color adjust etc
    blend modes applied : difference, screen, lighten, darken, etc.
    3d transformations
    graphics:
    none of the above
    the only real practical reason to use a graphic is the reason jdehaan stated. a graphics internal animation can be scrubbed via the main timeline. graphics will only advance when the main timeline advances. when the main timeline stops.. graphics stops.
    movieclips on the otherhand are said to run independent of the main timeline. so you can have a MAIN timeline with one frame only and the movieclip's interior animation will run constantly.
    also via the properties panel you can tell a graphic to stay stuck on a certain frame or loop a set number of times.
    always use movieclips unless you have a reason not too. as kglad said it will save you and others a lot of hurt in the future.

  • What is the difference between QuickTime and iMovie?

    Why would I need to upgrade my QuickTime to QuickTime Pro if I have iMovie? If I did have these two programs wouldn't that be redundant? They both edit the same kind of information, right? If you use both programs, please provide pros and cons. Thank you.
    iMac G5   Mac OS X (10.4.4)  

    It would take a book to describe the differences between iMovie and QuickTime Pro, so I won't go down that road. Here's Apple's QT Pro Tutorial, which will help introduce its features:
    http://www.apple.com/quicktime/pro/tutorials.html
    I use QuickTime Pro every day to help with one task or another. It's a very useful tool, which gets you closer to the basic functions of QuickTime than does iMovie. It also helps you learn more about QuickTime software, the heart of iMovie. Like most other things, the more you understand the fundamentals the more you understand the program using them.
    There's one important difference: Unlike iMovie, whatever task you want to perform with QuickTime Pro can also be done with an AppleScript script. So if you have repetitive tasks with movies, QuickTime Pro is a must. Just write a script that you call from within QuickTime Pro to perform just about any task, or collection of tasks. The script literally "tells" QuickTime Pro to perform the task.
    I strongly recommend QT Pro for anyone who uses iMovie HD a lot, or who is interesting in understanding the underlying structure of QuickTime movies.

  • Is there a difference between iMovie '11 and iMovie HD?

    Just getting started with trying to learn how to edit a video.  Also, is '11 short for 2011? In other words, if I referred to "iMovie 2011" would I be talking about something that actually exists?  I guess HD means High Definition.  What do you call something that is NOT HD?  Low def?  Regular Def?  The introduction to "iMovie HD"manual refers to "Magic iMovie"  Does the word Magic have special meaning, the way it does in reference to a mouse (mighty or magic being different)?  The   manual keeps referring to "the latest" but the copyright date at the back is 2005.  This makes me wonder if there is a more recent version of this manual.  Is there a place on the apple website to check on what the latest version is?  What is the Product I am asking abouit?  I don't think it is iMac, iPhone, iS 5 or None.  But those are the only choices I see below here.  Why is there not a choice of "iMovie"?  Or iLife?

    more questions: is a "project" the same thing as a "movie"?
    A Project is a movie you are making. You can use the clips from one or more events in a project. You can also use photos from iPhoto or Aperture or the Finder, and you can use Music from iTunes. When you "finish" a project, you use the SHARE menu to execute all your edits and create a file that can be played where you want it, in the size you want it. Even after you Share a project, you can go back and edit it some more if you like, but then you would need to Share it again.
       Or is it a "project" while you create it and then it becomes a "movie:" after you finish it? 
    A movie is the result of your Sharing the project as I mentioned above.
    This is something the Apple manual writers assume everyone already knows but I do not.  What is a Cache and how it is different from a Library?
    You shouldn't really need to understand caches and libraries to use iMovie. The Library is a section of your hard drive that you don't generally need to go to. It holds a bunch of files that are used by the system.
    A cache is a temporary place to hold something that you might need right away. For example, Let's say you are editing the first five seconds of a clip. It takes time to go out and get the clip off the disk drive and bring it into memory so you can edit it. A cache might be used, say, to save some time by going ahead and bringing in the whole clip (not just the first 5 seconds) and maybe the next clip too. Another example. You want a glass of milk. So do you go to the store and buy a glass of milk? No. You buy a gallon of milk and put it in the refrigerator. You drink your glass of milk. When you want another glass, you go to the cache (the refrigerator) not the store. The iMovie App handles all this behind the scenes so you don't have to worry about it.
    Clip seems on the surface obvious (a short section of continous video/audio that is a building block for a movie) but as I think about it, I wonder.....It is BOTH audio and video?  or EITHER?  If a movie contained only one clip wouold it be called a clip or a movie?
    The best way to understand clips is that it is a unit of video from the time you press record on your camera until the time you press stop. Ususally a clip is from 5 seconds to 20 seconds, but if you are recording a convert, a single clip might be two hours.   A clip is imported into an Event. A clip, or a portion of a clip, can be used in a project. It becomes a movie when you share the project. Could you take one clip and make a project from it with no editing? Sure.
    Usually a camcorder will record both audio and video. You can, however, use only the audio or only the video in a project if you want.
      If the audio and the video were from different sources would it still be a clip?
    No, it would be two clips. You can edit them together. If you want to sync multiple video angles (from different cameras) and different sound sources (like really good microphones, separate from the camera) then Final Cut Pro X is your best bet. But for simple needs, you can combine audio clips and video clips in iMovie.
       What are scenes?  What are sections?  
    A scene is usually a unit within your movie. It is up to you to define that. For example, if I was makeing a movie about my daughter's marathon, I might put a scene together about the pre-race preparations, a scene about the starting line, a scene about the midpoint, and a scen at the finish line. Each scene could have many clips. A scene is really where you use your creativity. I am not sure how you are using the word Section.
    What are effects?
    An effect could be changing the color balance, adding a sound effect, adding slow motion or fast motion, adding an old-timey or black and white look, adding a freeze frame, there are a lot. You dont have to use them at all. It depends on the story you are trying to tell.
      How many different types of panes exist? (So far, I see audio, titles, photos, transitions, effects, and iDVD) What is the difference between iDVD and DVD? 
    A DVD is a round disk that you put in a DVD player. You can create a DVD if you have DVD authoring software and a DVD burner. Five years ago, all Macs had DVD burners. Now, MacBook Airs, some iMacs, and some Mac Books no longer have built-in burners, but you can always add a DVD burner through a USB port.  Apple used to sell iDVD, which is an app that is used for DVD Authoring.  You can still find copies of iDVD on Amazon or eBay. More on disk burning here. https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3711
    More and more people are shooting HD video - and DVDs are only standard definition. And more and more people are sharing the video through YouTube and Facebook, which support HD. So Apple has been deemphasizing DVD lately. They have not updated iDVD since 2006. Still, if you make movies for friends and family who are not comfortable with the internet, DVDs are still quite useful.
    What is video exactly and how is video different from a movie?  Does video include audio by definition?  Or are there different terms to refer to video with and without audio?
    I think I already answered  this one.

  • Difference between paste and add to movie

    What's the difference between paste and add to movie?

    So more than one track can exist in the same location. A very confusing (to me) editing process.
    Yes, the MOV file con contain up to 99 tracks of data. For instance, if two or more video tracks coexist over the same time interval, they may be layered, masked and/or blended for various effects such as a framed movie, a movie-in-a-movie, movies with grapic logos, movies with watermarks, etc. In a similar manner, multiple audio tracks can be blended together. (E.g., a narration can be added over background music to a base move that already has its own audio track.)
    Here is an a example of a "mulitple" track MOV file created from many a background/Xmas card foreground image and many scaled PNG photo images of family members:

    Hi
    What is the difference between 651 and 653 movement types
    Points will be rewarded
    Regards
    Suddu

    Hi,
    Whenever goods movment happens following things are going on in the background:
    A material document is generated, which is used as proof of the movement and as a source of information for any other applications involved.
    If the movement is relevant for Financial Accounting, one or more accounting documents are generated.
    The stock quantities of the material are updated.
    The stock values in the material master record are updated, as are the stock and consumption accounts.
    651 - two steps - with a transfer posting using 453
    653 - one steps - direct post to unrestricted used
    *Using movement type 651, you post returns from a customer with a return delivery in Shipping to blocked stock returns.
    Using 653 movement type, you post returns from the customer with returns delivery via Shipping directly to the valuated stock.
    <b>Reward if helpful.</b>

  • Difference between itunes and others like vudu for downloading bought movies

    when buying & downloading movies, what the difference between Itunes and others like VUDU, Netflix, etc

    Vudu and Netflix are streaming services.  Netflix is a subscription service, Vudu is a rental service.
    Itunes sells and rents content that you download to your computer.
