Export good quality to itunes

I'm a brand new user to Soundtrack. I took a song and extended it by adding in the chorus into a few places. I saved my project and then opened it with itunes. It plays fine in Soundtrack, but in itunes the quality is terrible. Is there a way I can export the song in the quality that it plays in Soundtrack?

This is more likely to be an iTunes issue than Soundtrack.

Exporting TV Quality to iTunes

I am enjoying iMovie. However, I use Popcorn to convert DVD or 4:3 video footage to iPod using it's TV quality ie. max iPod resolution and quality.
With iMovie, there's only one iPod export setting - poor quality 320 x 240.
I have tried exporting to Quicktime, but I'm trying to replicate the best iPod compatible quality easily directly from iMovie.
The reason ? So my Mac in the living room can show shared family movies, shared in iTunes. Seems strange that there isn't a sharing function which retains quality.
Ideas ? Much appreciated.

News flash:
With the release of iTunes 7 (and some changes in QuickTime) exports to iPod can now be up to 640X480.
If your source files are from DVD (MPEG-2) they are 720X480 (640X480 in QuickTime) they'll look as good as your "rip".
Drag your files into iTunes Movies folder (left pane of iTunes) and use "Convert to iPod" under the Advanced menu.
A new .m4v file will be made and you can find it in the default location (wherever you have your Music library) in a folder named Movies. Open it with QuickTime Player and open the Movie Info window to see its format. Play it full screen using iTunes.

Exporting Good Quality 50P Footage?

Hi All,
I am a scientist studying animal behaviour and I have filmed footage using a Sony NX70 at 1080/50P AVCHD, and using GoPros at 720/50P and 1080/25P. I need to keep the footage at 50p because I am looking at detailed (and very fast) behavoiurs frame by frame.
I can edit and view the footage (albeit very jumpy) at 50P in Premiere CS6, but I cant work out a way of exporting a 50P clip for analysis. I have tried exporting at HDV 720p50, but the exported clip is still 25p.
Any ideas?

Your footage should not be jumpy. If 50p is a problem on your computer, you should address that issue. Perhaps get a graphics card from the list of cards that work with the Mercury acceleration. Or, perhaps your sequence does not match your fps?
Nonetheless, export using H.264 and you can choose 50p without a problem. Start with a 25p YouTube setting, for example, and you can modify what you want to make it something like this:

Exporting photos for UHDTV or Native 4K TV, what are the best settings ? (File: Quality File: Color Space, Image Sizing and resolution) Or in other words; How can I get the smallest files but keep good quality for display on new UHDTV

Exporting photos for UHDTV or Native 4K TV, what are the best settings ? (File: Quality File: Color Space, Image Sizing and resolution) Or in other words; How can I get the smallest files but keep good quality for display on new UHDTV

You're welcome, and thank you for the reply.
2) Yesterday I made the subclips with the In-Out Points and Command-U, the benefit is that I've seen the clip before naming it. Now I'm using markers, it's benefit is that I can write comment and (the later) clip name at once, the drawback is that I have to view to the next shot's beginning before knowing what the shot contains.
But now I found out that I can reconnect my clips independently to the format I converted the master clip to. I reconnected the media to the original AVI file and it worked, too! The more I work with, the more I'm sold on it... - although it doesn't seem to be able to read and use the date information within the DV AVI.
1) Ok, I tried something similar within FCE. Just worked, but the file size still remains. Which codec settings should I use? Is the export to DV in MOV with a quality of 75% acceptable for both file size and quality? Or would be encoding as H.264 with best quality an option for archiving, knowing that I have to convert it back to DV if I (maybe) wan't to use it for editing later? Or anything else?
Thank's in advance again,
André

Good quality video in itunes

ok so I have a mac mini, eyetv (thus lots of mpeg2) and a philips plasma tv.
Mpeg2 from eyetv plays full screen..... lovely good quality etc.
Now whats the suggested BEST route for getting some video into itunes, I WANT to keep the 720x xxx size and i want the best quality possible!
I have tried H.264 and I must say that with all of the settings tuned for highest quality, not only did it take for ever to encode a 1.5 hr movie but the quality on my 37" plasma was VERY disappointing. i.e. pixelated all over the place.
any help or suggestions?
Steve

In the article it suggests disabling 'Direct3D video acceleration in Quicktime'. On my computer it does not show that option. And it does not help much in disabling DirectX altogether.
Also, my computer does not have the option illustrated in the screenshots in 'Modify your System Drive Configuration'. I am not sure why it is differen, but I can send you screenshots from my computer to your email if you want.

How to export videos in good quality?

hi,
this is my first post on this discussion board, so please be understanding.
ok, so i have to prepare lot of videos for web, in Final Cut Express. mainly interviews, which are about 3 minutes to 5 minutes long max. on the other hand, i have restriction, that this videos should have max. 10 mb weight.
and me questions is, how to make it? Of course i want good quality!
how to do export, which setting i should customize?
or maybe which another program i should use to convert it later?
i'll be very thankful if You will write a little explanation!

Generally, exporting to H.264 or MP4 will give you the smallest file sizes. Plus, most web videos are not full screen and are at slower frame rates than regular video. You will have to experiment with some of the settings.
Export to QuickTime Conversion, select the H.264 or MP4 codec, try a couple of different options. First, reduce the size to 320x240 or smaller. See if that gives you the target file size. If not, try a smaller size. Then, if you still need to reduce the file size, try reducing the frame rate. Only change one thing at a time until you get the file size you need.

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.

Can't export flash cs6 in good quality

Hi, I can't seem to export my animation from flash cs6 in good quality. I tried exporting in avi, but that reduced the quality a lot and when I exported in quicktime, the audio didn't sync well. Not sure what to do, but I really want the video to look like it does when I test it as a swf file. Is it possible it is due to my computer? (I thought my computer is decent enough but perhaps not?) Thanks!

Thanks moccamaximim. I've tried that, but still it's poor quality. I've come across this page http://helpx.adobe.com/flash/kb/tips-reducing-dropped-frames-enhanced.html which is pretty helpful (I realized the problem is frames are being dropped), but I am not sure how to install the custom command the page has which might fix my probem. It looks like:
To install the custom command:
Download videoPreferenceCommand.zip.
I am also going to try the trial for flash cs5 to see if that helps at all. Any tips specifically for reducing dropped frames would be great.
Thanks!

Exported iphoto slideshow to itune but playback quality is low

I am using Macbook air Early 2014. OS X 10.10.1
My question is I exported iphoto slideshow to itune but playback quality is low. I used 480P MP4 format. How I can improve this?
Lo

Hello!
My first question is pretty obvious:
- is the quality great when previewing your slideshow in iPhoto?
If so, try the following:
delete the bad slideshow from iTunes
go back to iPhoto and select a better quality export method, like 720p or 1080p
Did that help?

Is 128 Kbps a good quality to import my cd's with itunes? thanks!

Is 128kbps a good quality to import my cd's with itunes? Thanks!

It depends on your playback system and your ears and how much space you have on the hard drive of your computer. If you have plenty of space, I'd suggest importing them as Apple Lossless so that you have the same quality as the original CD. You can always make copies at lower bit rates if you need to, and if you have the latest version of iTunes, it will automatically compress tracks synced to an iPod or iOS device if you wish it to.
If you don't have sufficient space on the hard drive for Apple Lossless, 320kbps AAC or 256kbps AAC would be a decent compromise unless you really need to squeeze things down.
Regards.

Can I export music from my iTunes library to another application?

I've been trying to figure out how to export music from my iTunes library to either Movie Maker or Roxio My DVD Creator. If I browse to my iTunes library, it doesn't show any music within the artist folders. I take it the only way I could use the music is to burn a CD and then open it using "my computer" and copying it to a folder on my PC and then browse to it from the other applications?
Dell Dimension E520 Windows XP

I think AAC will get you a little better quality for
the same file size of an Mp3. If I recall, iTunes
saves the original file and makes a copy with the
converted version. But to be safe, just make a backup
copy of the original file
And I take it that it makes no difference what format the file is in, it will still upload to the iPod and be playable there. I guess the default is set at AAC in iTunes and I never knew where/how to change it.
Thanks so much for your help!

How to make a good quality 8 Giga DVD out of a Project in AVI of 14 Gigas?

I have a film in a proyect made with a miniDV camera in my old Premiere 6.5
It has 68 minutes and after exporting it with the Microsoft DV AVI compressor in 100 % quality and not compressing the audio, it ended in an AVI of 14 Gigas.
I would like to obtain a DVD of the best quality in audio and video possible. How can I do it? SHOULD I EXPORT IT FROM THE PREMIERE 6.5 WITH ANOTHER COMPRESSOR OR IN LESS THAN 100% QUALITY WITH THE SAME DV AVI COMPRESSOR ? my INTENTION IS TO USE THE NERO VISION AFTERWARDS... I HAVE THE NERO VISION 4...-. FROM 2007- WOULD IT BE OK OR IS THERE A BETTER ONE? - I know there are newer ones...but better?
OR SHOULD I JUST USE THE ACTUAL 14 GIGA AVI PROJECT AND PUT IT STRAIGHT INTO THE NERO ? I GUESS THIS NERO COMPRESSION SHOULD BE WORST THAN THE ONE THAT THE PREMIERE WOULD MAKE...
Thanks a lot for all the help and advise you could give me !!!!!!!!!!!!!
PS IF IT IS A PROBLEM TO MAKE A GOOD QUALITY 8 GIGA DVD I COULD JUST MAKE A 4 GIGA ONE...

68 minutes DV should fit just nice on a single dvd.
Feed the DV file directly into Nero. Nero will transcode everything for you.
You can also use AME from Premiere 6.5 and export the timeline direct to mpeg2-dvd.
Unfortunately i do not know if Nero is going to re-transcode this mpeg file before burning to dvd.

I HAVE POSTED THIS A FEW DAYS AGO. THANKS TO THE PEOPLE THAT REPIED. BUT I THINK MY QUESTION IS NOTFULLY ANSWERED YET.
i NEED THE BEST QUALITY I CAN GET, EVEN WHITH MY PREMIERE 6.5, BECAUSE IT IS A FEATURE FILM THAT TOOK ME SEVERAL YEARS AND THIS LAST REMAKE IS NOW READY AFTER TOO MUCH WORK.
THANKS A LOT !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hello Thanks for your replys and sorry for being so fussy about this.
I have now seen that one of the options for exporting from Premiere 6.5 is Adobe MPEG encoder. So Do you guys think it would be a good idea to do it with that, Or Would it be better AVI or DV AVI compressor from Premiere before making the DVD?
I have the Nero Vision 4.9.6.6 But I may be able to look for another one if you think it is better...
Thanks a lot for your advises...

Pro Res in Final cut express How do i get a good quality SD DVD

I recently bought final cut express and have suffered getting a good quality SD DVD out through the workflow from my cannon XHA1.
On screen its fine but when i author through imovie to DVD the quality is poor.
So reading the various threads it would seem that i need to use Pro res and the ingress codec... But cant find this option in express ?
Question is. Is pro res codec available in express and if not can someone suggest the optimum set up for HD capture to SD DVD output
Many thanks

Use either of these techniques to get good quality DVDs from AIC.
1. Edit your HDV/AIC in the timeline. Then create a new DV-PAL (NTSC) Anamorphic sequence. Copy your edited HDV/AIC to the new sequence. Do not alter anything. Render the sequence ..... this will take a long time - up to twice the length of the project. Then File>Export>QuickTime Movie (Not Self-contained).
However, if you use the QT Movie in iDVD you will get a squashed 4:3 movie, so first of all you must make QT stretch it out to its proper 16:9 dimensions like this:-
+a. Open the exported movie file in the QT Pro player.+
+b. Go to Window>Show Movie Properties.+
+c. Select the "Video Track" and in the "Visual Settings" panel uncheck "Preserve Aspect Ratio".+
+d. In the "Scaled Size" box set the width to 1024 pixels for PAL.+
+e. The "Video Track" will have turned grey, so click it to make it blue again.+
+f. The opened movie file will jump to 16:9.+
+g. Close it with the red button and click Save.+
2. This method is fast. Set your camera to "Locked DV" which means that FCE/FCP will capture it as anamorphic DV and edit it as standard definition anamorphic DV. (Use Easy Setup ... DV-PAL (NTSC) Anamorphic).
You can then Export>QuickTime Movie to be used in iDVD and use the stretching technique mentioned above.

Every time I send a photo it sends with "For Review Only" on the photo. How can I remove this so my recipient gets a good quality photo?

If you used the Apple Professional Training Series 'Aperture 3' book, then this was in lesson #1 which had you set the 'Image Export' preset for the 'Email Medium - JPEG' to 25% of Original Size and to add a watermark (which happens to be the PSD file that overlays the image with 'For Review Only').
You can fix this by going to 'Aperture menu > Presets > Image Export...' and selecting the 'Email Medium - JPEG' preset and then deselecting the 'Show Watermark' option.
Note - you can also reset the 'Percentage of Original' field to %100 to get back to the defaults.
If you did not use the APTS - Aperture 3 book mentioned above, then I am not sure where you got the watermark.
