Export avi

Hi.
I'm having trouble in exporting avi files from imovie.
I'm importing from camera (imovie divides in clips, how to stop this?) and exporting the entire tape to file (.avi), but it just exports the first 3 or 4 minute, though the file has 12 gigas.
How can I export a complete tape to avi?
Thanks
Fernando

Welcome fpaleixo to the  iMovie boards..
avi is an old, Windows based media converter.. little supported on Mac platform.
the media container in the Mac world is called .mov.
a media container is NO format - just 'a box of chocolate', containing all kind of codecs...- the many export settings of iMovie allow all kind of codecs, h264, mpeg4, dv, .. plug-ins allow export as wmv, divx.. 3rd party converter support codecs as flv ...
... How can I export a complete tape to avi?
so, as Sheryl asked you: what is your intend?
.. and, why should someone export a whole tape without editing ?

  • Best plug-in or app to play and export avi flicks

    Hi
    What is the best plug-in for FCPX, QT, or app to play and export avi flicks? Can they play in FCPX or FCP 7?

    AVI is a wrapper format like MOV. It would depend upon the codec used to encode the video if FCPX would be able to open it or not. I believe, in general, if you can open the movie file in QT, you can open it, play, and edit it in FCPX.  That said, AVI is a Windows format and there are a lot of codecs in use in Windows that are not likely to be compatible with the codecs you have installed with Quicktime.  First try opening the file in Quicktime Player. If you are in need of a codec to play the file, one of the easiest ways to install a lot of these codecs at once is via Perian (it is "end of life" at this point, but still works just fine in Yosemite.) You can download it here : http://perian.cachefly.net/Perian_1.2.3.dmg
    I have been able to import, open and edit AVI files in FCPX (more specifically, ones encoded with XVID/MP3).

  • Why does "only" my Adobe flash profession CS6 can't export avi. file?

    Why does Adobe flash profession CS6 can't export avi. file?
    but when I watch Youtube video, there are avi file format option in CS6!!!!!!!
    Can anybody help me?
    WHY?????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Flash uses the Adobe Media Converter to create the video output. If you select the "Use Media Converter" option after selecting to output to Quicktime, and, if your computer has the AVI codec installed, you should be able to export to an AVI file.

  • Export AVI from Adobe Media Encoder Mac

    I would like to export AVI files from Adobe Media Encoder (CS5 or later) on a Mac running 10.6.8 or later. Am I able to buy the codecs for Mac to do so?

    [email protected]
    VLC player does get the job done, but I have found it to be glitchy in the past.
    I would recommend MPEG Streamclip much more strongly.
    I trust it much more.
    And free download, for Mac or PC. Just google it. (Though I have only ever used the Mac versions.)
    Though, I don't understand what you mean by saying that the .avi extention seem contrary to what was said above.
    Whatever "container" you use for your video file is what the extension will be. i.e. "video_file.avi"
    Within that container, there will be a compression codec (of which there are numerous options) that the container used to compress the video.
    That codec will not be displayed in the extension.

    I know you posted over a month ago...but maybe it will still be helpful!
    I do not remember the video codecs available within VLC player. Sorry.
    But if you decide to follow my advice to Timoyer and use MPEG Streamclip (which I highly recommend that you do!)...
    Then you can use File > Export to AVI... > and then select "Apple Component Video - YUV422".
    That is an uncompressed format.
    While it will be quite large, hopefully that will be what your client is looking for.
    Good luck to you all!
    And have a great week!

  • Interlacing methodology:  analog capture, export AVI, DVD authoring?

    My question concerns when to interlace and/or deinterlace a video?
    The original medium is VHS tape.
    The final products will be VHS tape (interlaced) and DVD (progressive).
    1. I do an analog capture of a VHS Tape with a Matrox capture card. I assume the new AVI file is interlaced because the tape was interlaced. But maybe I am incorrect.
    2A. For the final VHS product, when I export the video to an AVI file, do I need to turn interlacing on or do I need to use the progressive scan option? (If I use the interlacing option, am I doing a double interlace of the video? If I use the progressive scan option, am I preserving the already interlaced video?)
    2B. For the final DVD product, when I export the video to an AVI file, do I need to A) use the interlacing option, use the progressive scan option, or C) deinterlace at this point?
    3A. For the final VHS product, I merely play the newly exported AVI, and the interlaced video in analog form is outputted from the Matrox capture card and recorded by the VCR. Is that it?
    3B. For the final DVD product, I use TMPGEnc (Tsunami MPEG Encoder) to create MPGs prior to authoring the DVD. Do I need to use interlacing or progressive scan options here? See step 2B for previous options performed.
    Thank you for your expertise,
    John

    The source media is interlaced. Leave it that way for all exports.

  • Unrendered Blue on exported AVIs

    I get little flashes of of unrenderd blue screens through my exported AVIs, even though I rendered before exporting and I even threw out my renderes in render manager and re-rendered but no go...only solution was to export it as quicktime self contained file, then export it as an AVI from quicktime.. and it worked fine.. but not the way to do it though
    any one have this probleme before?

  • Cannot play exported avi (uncompressed)

    Can anyone help ?
    After I export avi (uncompressed) from Premiere Pro, I try all media programs I have on my PC to open the file. I cannot open the file. Still, when I import this avi (uncompressed) file back in Premiere Pro , the aplication is able to play it back. All other export and encoding schemes work just fine. Only avi (uncompressed) export cannot be open.
    I appreciate any one that can help! Thanks a lot !

    My first question would be what is the purpose of the uncompressed AVI file? There are few reasons to work with such a massive file, so perhaps there is a better codec/workflow to look at for your needs.
    Thanks

  • Why does elements 12 hang up on "loading exporter avi.prm"

    I downloaded an upgrade to premiere elements 12...installed...hangs up while starting at "loading exporter avi.prn or .prm or ???

    If you do not have a Matrox, I am not sure why Matrox drivers came into play?
    Have installed matrox software codec i think (i downloaded it but don't remember if i installed it yet)
    Those CODEC's, along with the Matrox drivers, are used to handle footage produced by a Matrox capture/video card.
    Are you working with Matrox Encoded files, that perhaps came from another computer?
    Good luck, and please let us know a bit more.

  • Help with exporting AVI

    I have an avi file thats 4.6GB. I am trying to simply import it add a title across it and export it as Avi. No problem importing it or adding title,but when i go to export I get a clip that is 8.6 GB (thats not a problem either) but the clip only plays a minute long and the title is not there. Opening in VLC it says avi file is broken. I can export a 3 minute clip with same settings and it works fine. Longer clip gets funky. Am exporting using Quicktime/ Movie to AVI/Copression DVCPRO50-NTSC/quality best/Interlaced 16:9 ratio. Antbody have an idea why this is doing this?

    The VT5 is basically a switcher with greatly enhanced capabilities, so is only one step in the chain.
    I am wondering if the computer, to which the VT 5 is installed/attached, can handle DivX material (CODEC) in an AVI wrapper. This will rely on that DivX CODEC being installed on the host computer.
    If so, you can install the DivX CODEC on your computer and then output MS AVI, choosing the DivX CODEC in the Advanced/Encoding settings. This will result in a highly-compressed file in the AVI format. Though highly-compressed, the output quality for streaming media is very good. Note: you will not need the "Pro" version of DivX, as you will be using only the CODEC (free) and letting PrPro do the encoding for you.
    Ask your instructor if the DivX CODEC will be acceptable to him/her. If so, that would be my choice for acceptable streaming quality and small file size, and it will be in the AVI "wrapper."
    You did not state if you have an SD (Standard Def), or HD (High Def) Project, or I just missed that. If SD, then the next best choice would be DV-AVI Type II file, but the file size WILL be larger, at ~ 13GB / hour Duration. I would choose this, and deliver the file on an external device, like a stick, or external HDD (7200 RPM).
    Good luck,

  • Is there a way to export .avi files to .mp4 en masse in Quicktime Pro?

    Hiya.
    What I've been doing for some time now is taking the .avi movie files my Canon camera creates, and exporting them as h264 .mp4 files which cuts the file size by more than half with minimal quality loss. But at this moment, I have almost 100 video files that I would like to do and this process would be much, much, better if I could que them up.
    Can you do this in Quicktime Pro and if not, another program?
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    This can also be done with SimpleMovieX.
    http://www.aeroquartet.com/SimpleMovieX/
    Note that I'm the developer of this application. It may not be as free as MPEG Streamclip, but at least it's supported.

  • Exporting AVI clips (error: "[\Src\Win\WinFile.cpp-759]" after 4 %)

    The following problem:
    I have 2 adobe premiere project. both have the same film and film length but different video codecs.

    or if I want export the project with other codecs, eg H.264 then Adobe premiere freezes and I can close Adobe Premiere then.

  • Adobe media encoder dont export avi

    i work in premiere cs4 and i try to export that project in avi format but it dont appear in the batchlist of media encoder. If i choose the mpegdvd option, it works. which is the problem? codecs missing? helpme please!!!.

    Whether I'm an acquired taste or not, I leave that up to you to decide.
    What irks me enormously is the number of posts by absolute NOOBS, who have never looked in the manual, who have never used the HELP file, assume that everybody should be at their disposal to solve the problems they have due to lack of understanding the basics of NLE, who act as adolescent nitwits that feel frustrated when named just that, who give a clear indication of using hijacked and illegitimate software, while the majority has payed dearly for an official license, and they still complain about things not working as they thought it would, using material not suitable for editing, trying to do things the program was never intended for on machines that are inadequate to start with.
    Remarks like: HELP, URGENT, BUG and the like are abundant, but very, very rarely can this be substantiated other than by plain OE. Unfortunately, most OP's have a very difficult time understanding that the cause of their problems is their own doing and often they complain when someone mentions this.
    C'est le ton qui fait la musique. If OP's would understand that even though their problem may be obvious to them, it is quite different when trying to ask somebody else's help. They have to go back to the basics and explain it for someone else, so the responder can understand. That is quite different and requires the OP to distance himself from his problem. Be objective, don't waste time on inconsequential details, show that you have searched the web or these fora, don't assume that saying: I don't have the time to search for an answer, so you do it, will win you a positive response.
    People, get real. This is a great place to share knowledge and experience. Everybody had to learn sometime and even noobs deserve their attention and help. It just makes it frustrating when one is continuously confronted with users of illegal software that demand priority service from Adobe on a user-to-user forum or that fail to clearly state their situation.
    Thus, I have this message:
    i "I reserve the right to call anyone a noob. Especially if you haven't read the ******* manual!!"
    i "The two most abundant things in the universe, are Hydrogen......and Noobidity!"

  • Exported avi's flicker between 4:3 and 16:9 when played back in media player etc.

    Using premiere pro 1.5 on a windows XP..... never had issues until recently.. always shoot with xl-2 in 24p... when the AVI is exported (microsoft dv avi ntsc, or sometimes 24p advanced) and I watch it in windows media player the video flickers back and forth between widescreen and standard... seems random....sometimes the exported videos will play ok... any ideas what's up?  thanks!

    hmmmm
    when the AVI is exported (microsoft dv avi ntsc, or sometimes 24p  advanced) and I watch it in windows media player the video flickers back  and forth between widescreen and standard... seems random....sometimes  the exported videos will play ok..
    dv avi ntsc is 720x480 and it sounds like you have mixed assets in your project...when that flickering happens.  720x480, whether it is 4:3 or 16:9 does not have square pixels..so if some of your assets are based on square pixels you'll get some weird stuff going on ( if your program monitor is set to "fit" it will look OK on timeline maybe, but on export wont ? )...maybe try program monitor at 100% instead and see what stuff looks like before you export...fix the mixed media stuff ?  You using still images ? is that what flickers diff size ?
    ...need more info re: assets in project, export settings
    ps. you might try ms avi ( not ms dv avi ) and adjust settings as per your project and try that export instead ( choose same renderer you use in project or lagarith or some lossless codec )

  • Problem exporting AVI to WMV in Quicktime.

    So I am putting together a powerpoint presentation for school but they have Vista computers, and my quicktime movie files and AVI files will not work because the school does not have quicktime on its computers. The only exported file through Quicktime that has worked is a WMV. However, somehow through the exportation process, the last half of the video gets cut off between being an AVI and going to a WMV.
    What can I do to fix this?

    Okay QuicktimeKirk. I found the problem, just not how to solve it. I looked through the guide and everything and nothing makes sense and i need these videos for a presentation tomorrow so I'm freaking out a little.
    Here's the deal, I am on my vid, here are my steps:
    File>Export
    Next to the Export dialog box, I pick Options...
    On this page, the top says Flip4Mac Export Settings - Demo Version.
    So, you were right, the problem is I have the demo version. But how do I change this page to go from Flip4Mac Export Settings - Demo Version TO Flip4Mac Studio Export Settings?
    I downloaded everything to my computer, entered the serial number, and installed everything.
    What is the next step to fix this mess?

  • How to restore sound to exported avi? - Flash MX 2004 Pro

    Hi,
    Over the last couple of days I have been tinkering around with Flash MX 2004 Pro. More specifically, I have been importing avi's to the library and then placing the embedded video into a movieclip so I could have more control over it. While in the library I could preview the video along with the sound. Exporting the video again in avi format it would render the sound. However, all of a sudden it will only preview the video and not the sound in the library and the same goes for when I export a video there is no sound. The strange thing is the sound is still present when I test the movie. I have tried reinstalling the program with no luck. Any ideas?
    Many thanks.

    Well there is no answer to my question, but I did finally get the Adobe Media Encoder dialog box to come back again.
    After uninstalling Premiere and QuickTime, then shutting down the computer, rebooting and logging on to the Admin account, shutting down again, rebooting again, logging in to the Admin account again ...
    I then went in to the registry and removed all the Entries that had either of these in it:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\DVA\COM
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\DVA\FLASH
    and these as well
    C:\Program Files (x86)\QuickTime\QTComponents\FLV.qtx
    C?\Program Files (x86)\QuickTime\QTComponents\FLV.qtx
    Rebooted the computer, logged back in to Admin.
    I then re-installed QuickTime, and rebooted.
    I then installed Premiere and the Adobe Media Encoder Flash dialog now shows up.
    I'd be careful messy with the registry if you are trying to fix this type of problem.  Try uninstalling quicktime and premiere and do the above shutdown, reboot sequence a number of times before doing anything to the registry. 
    I'm not sure what I'm going to do about that Flash Website I've working on...
