How can I export a compressed mp4 file from iMovie (mavericks)?

Hello everyone,
I had just downloaded the new version of iMovie.
I'm very amazed to see that the funcion "Export movie with QuickTime" is not available.
I used this funcion to customize parameters of exported videos;
How can now customize parameters? I have to use another external software to produce mp4 files???
Thankyou for answers.

If you use "Share" and choose 540P, 720P or 1080P it will be mp4, withH264 codec. You just have to once figure out what spefic settings (for example bitrates) are used with the defaults from iMovie 13 (look-up the exported files with info in Quicktime), and wether they are ok with you.
In the former version I already used automator to achieve some specfic settings for my web-video's, now I think I don't need that anymore.
The only way around as far as I know is the usage of QTPro7 or compressor. Export as 1080P and open the file with one of those apps.

How to export as a .mp4 file in good quality?

Hi,
I want to produce a video as a .mp4 file which suits best for the webb.
How to export a project from iMovie as a .mp4 file in a GOOD quality and original size or ratio?
What to do?
I went to Share-export with Quick Time and changed the file format to MPEG4 but the quality is really bad. The size is small 300x200 something and picture quality is really bad.
How to produce a video easiest in iMovie which suits best for the webb (in HD quality). Not all people have Quick Time so .mov is not suitable. And .m4v files don't play very well on webb. They get stuck.
What to do?
Thankful for your help.

Today I started this project, and garageband no longer has "export movie" as a choice,
Are you now using GarageBand 10.0?
Then import the movie,
Track menu > Show Movie Track
File menu > Movie > Open Movie
Mix the sound track song
Then use the "File" menu > Movie > Export Audio to Movie.
This will write the audio aa an audio track into the imported movie.

Save or export an opened .mp4 file without re-encoding

How can I save or export an .mp4 file that I opened and trimmed without being required to re-encode it. I'm looking for an option to either save the .mp4 file without exporting, or export with a passthrough option such as the one available when using QuickTime Pro. Thanks.

Hmm, I would have expected inclusion of the basic feature set of QuickTime Pro to be a prerequisite for any commercial audio editing program.
The reason commercial audio editing programs don't work the way Quicktime Pro does is Quicktime Pro really isn't an audio app. If Quicktime is able to cut an trip an mp4 file (m4a, aac, whatever you call it) it's becaue it's editing the stream directly, probably similar to the way a file-splitter would work. MP3 was able to have this one too, one could chop an mp3 up in to parts without re-encoding...however, due to the way data is represente in a lossy format, you have several limitations in doing so.
Commercial Audio applications don't do this because it's not going to be done by professionals...even if Audition had this feature, it wouldn't be able to work the same as cutting a wave file. You have servere limitations on where you can cut a lossy audio file up without having to re-encode it.
Cutting the bitstream of an mp3 or m4a file is generally not a standard inclusion for any audio program...
But, remember, Quicktime is a "basic" video editor...not an audio editor nor should it be confused for one.

After Effects CC // Adobe Media Encoder won't export H.264 mp4 files

It stops immediately after "Reading XMP", having exported a defective file (200 kb, about a second long). I've tried several presets in this category.
Is it a codec problem? What could be the cause?

Rick means composition, not compensation.
But he's right; we need that info.
Also, is this a dynamically linked project? If so, what exact version number of AE are you using (down to the last decimal)? Also, what version of AME? If not, what format and codec are you rendering to out of AE that you're bringing into AME?

Adobe Media Encoder creates corrupt H264 mp4 file

I am using Premeire Pro CS5 and exporting an H264 mp4 file from a 720x480 timeline. For one of the files I am exporting, AME completes the export, i.e. I see a green check mark. But the file is corrupt. When I try to open the file with Quicktime, I get the following error:
"The operation couldn't be completed - (OSStatus Error - 12848)"
The strange thing is that other timelines exported without any problem. And this particular timeline I could export using different (but very similar) export settings. The only thing I'm changing is the video bitrate. I'm actually creating three different videos for adaptive bitrate streaming, 300k, 550k, and 800k, all from the same video. The 300k version is the only one that won't work. But again, what is strange is that other timelines export out fine using the same exact 300k export settings. It's just this one timeline that won't export without getting the mentioned error.

I having the same issue.
Any insight on a solution?

Why does my exported mp4 file look so bad when it is viewed in adobe acrobat pdf file?

I have embedded an mp4 (exported from premier pro cs6) video file into adobe acrobat and its not sharp viewing of my video anymore. It was a sharp video when viewed in both premier and the exported mp4 files, but once embedded in acrobat it looses sharpness, anyone know what the problem might be? Could my settings in adobe acrobat be wrong? I would think the problem is in adobe acrobat since the exported mp4 video views crisp and clear before its embedded, any ideas to assure sharpness with my video after its embedded into the adobe acrobat pdf?
Hoping someone has an answer to this, I think my problem might lie within the adobe acrobat settings????
or maybe there is no way around and I need to expect this video not to look as crisp and clear after I embed it into acrobat.... as it is when viewing in premier pro, mp4, etc.????
Any helpful information would be greatly appreciated.
Someone Im sure is taking theri exported premier files and embedding them to create pdf files? Would love to hear if anyone has encountered this issue.
Thanks so much in advance for any help offered.

Hi Dave,
I just completed a test and comparison between the two PDF's,
compared the file as you suggested with the floating option and changing setting to actual size of the original premier pro / mp4 file size and
the old pdf that did not utilize the floating and file size option.
I do notice a slight difference. The PDF with the floating window with the match of the media clips original dimensions appears to be crisper.
I will be having the final pdf document set utilizing this method for the embeded mp4 movie and hope that the department doing this (next stage of this job) will agree that this is better to use your steps to embed all the video files into a pdf.
Thanks so much for your time.
Hope you had a happy holiday, and hope you have a very happy and healthy new year.
Thanks, Amy

What's the best quality export for a 720 X 480 size, 24fps mp4 file?

Whats the best quality export for a 720 X 480 size, 24fps mp4 file?
This movie trailer will be sent to a distributer overseas.
The export I been resorting to lately is MPEG 2 DV High Quality as oppose to anything HDTV because it just shrinks the picture, obviously lol
Do I have anymore options besides Mpeg 2: NTSC DV High Quality?

Lagarith is a codec that you install separately. A very brief Search would have given you that info.
You can access the Lagarith option (once installed) using the Microsoft AVI format, and selecting Lagarith under Video Codec in the Video tab.

Can I export an .mp4 file created by Adobe Premiere Pro CS4 to tape using alternative software?

I am editng with Premiere Pro CS4 on a Windows XP system. I attempt to disable all startup and background software . When i export a one hour completed project to tape, I invariably get at least one glitch (momentary stop) on the resulting tape. Is there an alternate program I can use to export to tape an .mp4 file created by CS4?

Could be wrong, but as far as I know the only way to "export" to tape is to PLAY the timeline while the camera is connected via Firewire and in record mode

IMovie 10 exports .mp4 file issue

I am trying to get an edited movie into mpeg format to burn to DVD. I have exported the file to .mp4 format but when using Burn to convert to mpeg error message states the .mp4 file has no video/audio attached - why?
In this latest version there is no "finalise" option to render so not sure what I am not doing or what I need to do to correct this.

Did you use the correct dimensions fo DVD burning?
Share to file and in the next window click on the small disclosure triangle next to Size:
Change it to 480.

Problems exporting and playback the MPEG2-DVD videos, from .MP4 file!

I have PremiereProCS4 v.4.2.1 installed on this PC:
OS:WindowsXPProx64Bit; CPU:IntelCore2Quad Q9650; RAM:4GB DDR2 PC2-6400 Kingston; HDD:3x500GB WestrnDigital Caviar Green; VGA: Sparkle GeForce 9400GT 512MB.
I have downloaded an AVCHD file .MTS 1920x1080p 25p, made by Canon HF100 AVCHD camcorder, from this source (.rar file):
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=RWR5MNYHhttp://www.megaupload.com/?d=B9ZDX2RZ
The videos in question called: "25pf_1.25_f1.8.MTS" playback and export from Premiere as MPEG2-DVD very well.
I playbacked it on Premiere on the second Monitor as "OutputDevice". All Ok.
I playbacked also the DVD made with EncoreCS4, on the external DVD set-top-box-player. All OK.
I downloaded also another clip 1080p 25p, converted as .mp4, from the same author, imported then in Premiere with Preset "XDCAM EX 1080p 25p" (470MB) :
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=B9ZDX2RZ
No problems with playback.
Exported as MPEG2-DVD PAL "Lower Field First".
Opened in NeroShowTime Player: the video have a serious interruptions of the playback, some moments plays back-and-forward, and it isn't fluid at all!
I tried to create a DVD with EncoreCS4 and played it with DVD Player set-top-box, and the result is bad, and is the same as the playback on my PC with NeroShowTime Player. It present the back-and-forwars interruptions.
I tried also to create an AVCHD Project 1080p 25p and import the .MP4 file, but the problem persists !
After exporting them, and played-back on NeroShowTime and on Set-Top-Box Player, the video have strange behavior, and plays back-and-forward!
1) What Preset in Premiere should I use to editing, for this .MP4 file format, (filmed with Canon HF100 AVCHD and converted from original .MTS format to .MP4 format)?
2) Is this a transcoding problem?
3) Is this an exporting MPEG2-DVD PAL field-order issue?
This is my bad exported MPEG2-DVD converted file, available for downloading:
http://rapidshare.com/files/337858976/Canon_HF100_1920x1080p_25p_01_AVCHD25p.m2v.html
Strange! With .MTS files I haven't any exporting problems at all!
Please response me hurry!
Many Thanks!
Horsepower.

OK! Sanyo use a bad format.
But about JVC GY-HM100 Professional:
I know this model very well!
It records to .MP4 XDCAM_EX at the same manner of Professionals Sony Camcorder such this: Sony XDCAM_EX model "PMW-EX1" price €6.478,80.
This JVC GY-HM100 camcorder is not tha same as Consumer JVC camcorders.
It doesn't record MOD or TOD files.
It records .MP4 files editables in Premiere with XDCAM_EX "Preset"!
See those details:

The first Brochure called "A Guide to the Most Efficient Workflow with ProHD
(6 pg brochure)" explain very well the .MP4 - XDCAM_EX format and the Editing process that should be with Adobe PremiereProCS4.
I have inspected the downloaded .mp4 file in question, and GSPOT v.2.70a reading this:
-CONTAINER:
     isom: MP4 Base Media v1 [IS0 14496-12:2003]
-VIDEO:
     CODEC:avc1
     NAME: H.264/MPEG-4 AVC
-AUDIO:
      CODEC: mp4a: MPEG-4 AAC LC
1c) Is this an AVCHD video codec?

Mp4 file exported as flv in cs3

hi there,
i'm wondering...i usually have no problem importing .mov or
.mpg files and exporting them in flash but for some strange reason,
flash is not reading the
mp4 files i have as "video" files. (even though i can watch
them in quicktime.) however, i was able to import them anyway and
export them as .flv files as normal. i thought everything was fine
but then the video just sort of stops about three quarters of the
way through and the sound drops out. (this doesn't happen in the
original mp4 files. anyone run into this problem before or is it
just me? any suggestions? your input is much appreciated!
oh,
here's an example of what
happens, when you click on one of the commercial links in the
"what's playing" section that appears.
thanks in advance,
denise

oh, thanks so much for the offer....actually i didn't end up
fixing the problem that i was having of importing the mp4 files
into flash and exporting them to flv format...but i did bring the
mp4 files as a plug-in into dreamweaver and just have them play as
is in quicktime or i believe whatever the user's default player is.
so, basicly, i posted them as they were given to me by my client.
it would have been nice to have everything smoothly open up in
flash, but this works too.
thanks for your reply. i appreciate it.

Exporting to .mp4 file using QuickTime Pro

Rather than use the Movie to iPod preset in QuickTime pro, I would like to export an .avi file to a .mp4 file using Movie to MPEG-4. I would like the resulting file to be encoded using h.264 video and to be 640 X 480. I want one file that I can include as an enclosure in the rss feed for my podcast that can be downloaded and played in both iTunes and on an iPod. So far, I have been able to create a .mp4 file that plays in iTunes/QuickTime but not on an iPod.
Would someone with experience in this please tell me which settings to use in the MPEG-4 export settings dialogue so that I get a file that can be played on the iPod.
The options are:
File Format (I chose mp4)
dropdown (I chose video)
Video Format (I chose H.264)
Data Rate (I know it's important that this not be too high but don't know what to put.)
Optimize For (download is the only choice for this option)
Image Size (I chose 640X480 VGA)
Preserve Aspect Ratio checkbox (My original video is 720X480. I don't think I should check this. I want to change the pixel aspect ratio to square pixels.)
using dropdown box (Letterbox, crop, fit within size) (only active when Preserve Aspect ratio is checked)
Framerate (I chose 29.97, which is the frame rate on the original .avi file)
Keyframe ( I set this to every 15 frames)

Thanks. I was aware of that information. But still am stuck on using QuickTime Pro to come up with a usable .mp4 file for the iPod. I think I am using the right settings, but it's still not working. That's why I included a lot of detail about the specific options in my question. Hopefully, there's someone out there who has used QuickTime Pro for this.

Audio stuttering problems with certain exported MP4 files

I'm currently running Captivate 6.1.0.319 on my old and decrepit Pentium 4 machine that has 4GB of RAM and is running Windows 7 SP1. I'm developing an online training course on RoboHelp 10 for Udemy, and they require all lecture files to be in MP4 format. Unfortunately, some of the MP4 files I generate from Captivate have audio stuttering starting a few seconds into the generated video and nothing I try fixes the problem.
All the videos are being recorded with video dimensions of 1360 x 978 pixels. I import the .cptc file I recorded into the .cptx file, and then I import an MP4 audio file into the .cptx file. When I finish editing the .cptx file, I publish it to an MP4 file using the highest video settings and the highest variable bitrate audio settings.
I have tried the following to try to fix the problem:
Turned off SWF compression.
Created a new .cptx file and copied the slide from the problem .cptx file into the new one, and published that new .cptx file.
Disabled all software operating in the foreground and the background.
Tried generating the MP4 file on my laptop; the laptop runs the same version of Captivate on Windows 8.
As I said, Captivate generates some MP4 files perfectly without any stuttering, and others have the stuttering problem. If this problem sounds familiar, it's because I wrote a couple of messages about this a few months ago and despite some good suggestions, I wasn't able to solve the problem. I've spent my time during the past few months trying to find another program that will convert SWF files to one of the formats Udemy supports -- MP4, MOV, or FLV -- without success. Captivate exports to SWF and HTML5 format files without any trouble at all. But MP4 generation is spotty and I need to get this resolved so I can get this project off my plate and start making money off it.
If you have any further questions, please let me know. I look forward to hearing your suggestions.
Thanks,
Eric Butow

Hi,
I am having the same issue and cannot figure out what is causing it, as it occurs randomly - but fairly frequently - when I publish to mp4. And it is not tied to the project - seems to be something happening during the publishing. The issue might occur one time when pubishing a project and if republished again it may or may not occur again. I would be very interested in finding exactly what is causing this and any step that are tested and proven for getting away from the problem.

Whenever I export my interactive indesign file to swf the videos won't play in the resulting html file, it's just a black screen. I'm using .mp4 videos as well.

Does anyone know what may be causing this problem?
Thank you

Unless you held down the Command key when dragging the iPhoto Library package to the flash drive you only copied the library. How is the flash drive formatted? If it was not OS X Extended (journaled) the integrity of the library's internal structure was probably compromised.
If you don't have a current backup of your library do the following:
1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down to open the First Aid window. Be sure to follow the circled recommendation in the screenshot.
2 - run Option #4, Rebuild Database.
