Export Logic Movie to mp4?

Is it possible to export audio to a movie that is a file other than .mov?

If you can open up the video in Logic then it can export the audio to it. regardless of the extension. Logic doesn't change the video format. During an export to audio it will only replace the audio track and trims the length of the movie if you bounce only a section of it.

Is XMP import/export for MOV/MTS/MP4 files not supported?

I have been evalutating LR4 and am stuck on how to import my files from another DAM into LR4.
I am able to write XMP into JPG files, and provide sidecar XMP files for RAW (CR2) and MOV/MP4/MTS files, writing my hierarchical keyword information into the xmp-dc:Subject and xmp-lr:HierarchicalSubject fields.
LR4 seems to read the XMP keywords from the JPG and RAW files just fine and re-creates my keyword hierarchy.
LR4 seems to ignore on import the XMP for the non-image files such as the MOV/MP4/MTS files for which I have provided sidecar files.
LR4 also does not write out XMP files for the non-image files, when I use save Medatada.
Does LR4 just ignore import/writing XMP for these non-image files?
Thanks,

MTS files can't really accept metadata embedding -your best bet is to use ClipWrap to "re-wrap" AVCHD/MTS files into MOV files.
This still does not fix the problem of LR not writing XMP data to video files. Unfortunately, if you want to have metadata that stays with your MOV files, you'll want to use something aside form LR4 -I wouldn't bother doing much video cataloging in LR4.

How do I export a movie using a different format (iMovie 2013)

Title question. I can only seem to export my movie using .mp4 and I've seen on youtube using previous versions of iMovie being able to change the format...
I use a Sony DSC-HX20V to capture my footage which formats the videos in AVCHD and it records in an image quality of 50p. I want to also know how to import these videos onto a 4th generation iPod Touch and which format will support the device better. Thank You.

Although I don't use it myself, saving to Theater creates versions for all sorts of devices including iPod Touches.
iMovie 10 help says:
"When you add a movie, trailer, or clip to the Theater, iMovie creates versions of your movie tailored for local playback (1080p HD), playback on an iOS device (720p HD), and web streaming (480p SD)."

Ios imovie export format: .mov vs. .mp4

Can anyone please tell me how to force short (under 2 minute) iOS iMovie files to save as mp4s into Camera Roll?
I am an art & music teacher whose students create short iMovies for several assignments. After they're done, they save their movies to the camera roll -- and then attach them to our assignment in Edmodo to submit for a grade. In this last assignment, suddenly some of the kids' files are saving as mp4 and some as mov -- and I can't open the .mov files on my school-issued iPad 2 or on my home MacBook. We have never run into this problem before and I can't sort out if it is a matter of file size or what. I experimented with uploading files into email -- and sometimes they save as mp4 and sometimes as mov. Thanks for any help you can offer.

Why not?
iMovie doesn't 'hand-thru' the data; any export setting (what was your choice?) compresses the material - in your case by 50% ... did it visually do any harm? If not - no prob, hm?
And again: mov or mp4 are just wrappers, no 'format', esp. no codec - that is INSIDE the mov. Or mp4 ...

How can I export a movie with audio that I have edited in logic 9 to a quicktime movie

I imported a quicktime movie into logic and added audio and effects but when i export it the original audio from the quicktime movie is still there even though it doesn't sound in logic!

Hi
One of teh final steps in the Export to Movie process is a dialog box where one can select which of the audio tracks embedded within the movie are included.
You must actively de-select those tracks that you do NOT want to include in the Export.

Phone made videos exporting as .mov files instead of .mp4

My phone made videos used to be exported as mp4 files, which my dell computer was able to play correctly. The videos are now exporting as .mov which only gives me the audio in the download to pc. Do you know what I need to do to fix the problem?
Thanks

How to export quicktime movie?

I was wondering how I can export a quicktime movie (camcorder film) to a smaller size but that can also be played on both Mac and PC computers? I tryed to export a couple time using encoding such as MPEG-4 but the movie accually was much smaller to view than the original and the second time I tryed to encode it at a bigger size, the movie played at the same sze as the original but at a lower quality because it was stretched.
Can anyone help me with this. I just want to export and save a quicktime movie into a playble formate for both mac and windows and also not taking up too much disk space either. Thank you.

One could write a book (I did) that explains what all the codecs do and where and when to use them.
You need only need to know where the file will be viewed and its source format.
As Rick has pointed out, most new digital cameras capture in DV (Digital Video) and they are nearly instantly ready for software editing (like iMovie). QuickTime Pro can also edit the .dv files.
Once you determine where the file will be viewed (the Web for example) you'll get an understanding of methods to "compress" the file to fit the planned playback.
Three major factors that reduce the file size:
The new dimensions (720X480 DV files) to Web 320X240 (DV uses rectangular pixels).
Reduce the "frame rate". If the source was 30 frames per second you can usually remove half of them (15fps). Use more fps if the source has lots of motion.
The codecs used. Compressor-decompressor is handled by the delivery format (.mov or .mp4). Some are more efficient and offer better quality when enlarged during playback. MPEG-4 is the most modern and will soon become the next generation of DVD (currently MPEG-2).
This is where your question can only be answered by you. The quality can be adjusted (some codecs offer "sliders"; good better best while others allow you to set a data rate) and only you know what is acceptable.
Rick suggests a "one minute" export and I agree. Use various settings and data rates and use your eyes to decide what is acceptable.
Don't forget that part of your capture was audio. If your camera captures only mono formats making the export into stereo does nothing but double the size of the audio track. The Advanced Audio Codec (AAC) format found in MPEG-4 exports does a great job of reducing the file size. You can control these settings at export, too.

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.

Note that I'm the developer of this application. It may not be as free as MPEG Streamclip, but at least it's supported.

Can there be any external hard disks - if so How is/are it/they formatted ? Must be Mac OS Extended (hfs) if used for Video.

What this means in Your situation is above me.

I fixed the problem.. but it was very, very strange. I had a very long section for credits and set the line spacing to 1.0.. for some reason this caused it. I removed it, and it worked fine. I put it back, and I couldn't preview or play the video.
I don't know why that could cause that big of a problem, but it did..

You need more free space on your hard drive.

After phone support from apple I ended up creating a new project and adding all 117 clips back in individually till I found out what clips flagged and would not allow me to export. I had 3 I deleted and replaced and everything works now 1hr after tedious work....
Where do Your material come from
• Camera
• External hard disk
• USB-memory
And all are connected so that iMovie can find it ?

Shorter clips than 1,5 sec might be one of the culptrits
Bengt cont.
Set-Up might differ
• Mac OS - most probably X.7 or more
• iMovie version - more than iM'11 v. 9.0.4
Action taken
• Finalizing project - I never do as I never understood the gain to do so
• Share as HD to iDVD - never give any gain but if it works the resulting DVD is less quality than if SD-quality was shared
fps - set
•I only use PAL (25fps)

Why archive AVCHD as disk images, versus .MOV or .MP4?

I get an interesting array of responses to this everywhere I ask...but most of all I'm curious about the opinions of folks who specifically use FCPX for editing, so I'd greatly value your feedback.
Like many folks who have been shooting AVCHD for a while, I now have many years worth of footage from a variety of cameras stuffed into my backup/archive workflow. For all those years, I've been keeping perfect disk images (generally non-compressed, read-only .dmg files created in Disk Utility right off cards and cameras) of every single one of those AVCHD shoots. In the early days of the format, when support was far, far more twitchy and frustrating than it is today, I felt it made sense to have a little "healthy" paranoia.
These days, however, I wonder if this isn't a colossal waste of time and storage space?
Here's the thing about this method...nothing ever gets deleted. You end up sucking every little take, every borked shot, every mishap, into your diskspace, cloud storage, tape library, or whatever you use for archival, forever. When I stop to think objectively about this, it seems nuts. I mean, if I did this with photography, my photo library would be 2x to 3x its current size and full of garbage. It would also be hard to navigate, which come to think of it is a major annoyance with all my AVCHD disk images. I keep them well organized, but still, having to mount them to look through videos (and then having to climb down into the "STREAM" subfolder each and every time) feels like a hassle.
I wonder if I should just go back, bust open those old disk images, use something like ClipWrap or Media Converter to repackage all those .MTS clips in something more portable (like Quicktime or MP4 containers) and just keep around the ones I actually want? There's no quality loss in doing so, and the video/audio content would continue to be usable in both FCPX and pretty much any modern multimedia software, right?
My question is what, if any, good argument is there in 2012 for keeping complete disk images of AVCHD?

Hi Neil,
Sorry about all the frustration.
Why does GB output an iMovie generated video podcast as .mov and Final Cut export to iPod as .m4v?
I don't have the newest GarageBand, so can't really say. But I do know that Final Cut will export a movie in different formats. If you choose the default setting for the iPod, you will get a high quality file, but it will be HUGE! Takes a long time to download, and takes a lot of server space.
This isn't too much of a concern if you have just a few movies and they are short, but if you make many long movies, it's a big problem. We produce a movie every week that's about 40-45 minutes long, so we use the QuickTime .mov as well as the MP4 export from Final Cut Express and encode them as H.264 using settings we've refined to make the file size small. Last week's 38:33 minute talk was 61.1 MB for our large 480x360 .mov video, and 35.5 MB for our 320x240 .mp4 videocast.
The extension on a H.264 file could be .mov (our large video) or .mp4 (our videocast). .m4v can also be H.264 (the default iPod QT setting).
The encoding (like H.264) is the most important part - you want to make something that looks good, sounds good, and streams well.
Hope this is helpful.

Poor quality when exporting to MOV (H264/AAC) with CS5 and CS5.5

Hi there,
I need to export my HDV sequence (1440*1080 Pixel 1,33 25fps) using HDV footage only to MOV format (with H264 / AAC codecs).
I'm using 1024*576 (1.0) SD preset with a correct video bitrate CBR 6mbs and the Quality is awful.
When I use the H264 format ( to get a .MP4 file) with the same preset (1024*576 square pixel >> CBR 6mbs) the quality is quite good. I 'm pretty happy with that. The only thing is that my client (TV) needs the clip in MOV format (including H264/AAC codecs) and the quality is awful. They expect me to use FCP as most of the journalists here in France use this application.
I tried with PREMIERE CS5 on a PC (windows 7 64 bits) >> 8G0 RAM, Dual Core
and with PREMIERE PRO CS5.5 on a mac
Same awful result when trying to export to MOV (H264/AAC).
I heard that PREMIERE can't properly export to this format? Is this correct? If so, i need to convince my client to use only MP4 (H264/AAC) files since I don't really wanna use Final Cut Pro or Media Composer to edit and export my clip.
Any tips ?
Thanks guys.
Julien

I had similar quality issues exporting H264 from PPro vs. Avid Media Composer. CHeck out this thread link http://forums.adobe.com/thread/854379?tstart=0.
I found it pretty helpful, it also links to another reference thread.
I think it's possible, but will take a bit of trial and error.
Good luck

Export XAVC-S in MP4 Container

I want to create a video in 4K to play it on a Samsung 4K TV.
The TV is able to play XAVC-S coded 4K movies but unfortunatly not if I export it in 4K H.264.
How can I export XAVC-S in MP4 Container with Premiere Pro CC 2014?
Thanks for any help.

Hi Frank,
The only way to export XAVC is to use the MXF OP1a with an XAVC-Intra preset. Would that work?
Thanks,

Compare file size .mov vs .mp4

I have an iMovie that I exported to .mov with expert settings: 32KHz audio, 24 fps, 480x360 and it gave a file about 300 mb ( a tad over 6 min). I also have some videos from a subscription at Luminous-Landscape that are mp4. As far as I can tell they are the same parameters. BUT, one of them, for example, is 27 min and about 147 mb! Much smaller proprotionally!
I noticed a much smaller bit rate while viewing the longer duration video compared to mine. Something in that? Is it that it is mp4 and mine is mov?
Is there a good place to go to decipher the Expert Settings meanings and practice?
Thanks...
Rick

... you haven't told us, which CODEC you used for your export.. (?)
.mov is just a container, a wrapper around mp4, h263, sorenson, h264, mp4.. whatever.. (even mp3, pic, qtvr...)
the container doesn't add that much of data to a file..
24fps is .. 'exotic', when it comes to iMovie, which doesn't support such a framerate, and when it comes to computer display, 24fps again is less optimal .. it is a fps from the film business.. you get much better (=in terms of quality) results, using the original or half of the framerate of your source ...
with all respect, I mostly doubt a 30min video of only 150MB size ... please check the settings again ...
when it comes to small file sizes, I lately stumbled into a nice variation of the h264 codec, have a look on my website:
http://karsten.schluter.googlepages.com/apowerfulcodec
and if you prefer mp4, use the free encoder iSquint, esp for lower bitrates, it offers a (much) better pic quality than QT's mpeg4 encoder ... (a few infos on my other site, click here)

I CANNOT export a movie in CS4, that was simple in CS3

Recently upgraded from CS3, and have run into an absolute brick wall - CS4 will not allow me to export a movie. It opens Media Encoder, and I run the queue, and after about 30 seconds it comes back with an error log saying "Error Compiling Movie: Unknown Error" That is NOT a useful error message.
I have tried Quicktime with a number of different codecs, including "none", I have tried H264.
All I want is an uncompressed mov file that I can continue working with outside of Premiere / Adobe.
There are no blank portions in the video.

I have exactly the same problem. Premiere Pro CS4. MP4 files in a 19 minute movie. Tried to export as MPEG 2 DVD, .MOV .AVI .WMV. All failed in Adobe Media Encoder. Last test said Could not write XMP date to outputfile. AME shows the encoding running but then yellow warning triagle in the status box. I tried the keyframe suggestion, no difference. I have reinstalled CS4, no luck. Very fraustrating as the client expects their DVD tomorrow. Any ideas would be apprecited. I called Adobe and they had no idea.

Final Cut Pro Audio Levels Low when exporting to mp3 and mp4

Hi everyone! When I export audio from Final Cut as an mp3, my levels are very low. When I export footage as an mp4, the audio is low as well. But before exporting, my levels are right at or below 0. So they are where they should be. So for example, when I open the audio in Adobe Audion or Logic, they could almost be doubled before peaking within those programs. Could this be a compression issue? And input would be helpful. Thanks!

Are you working 0n 10.0.9? If not, update FCPX and see whether that solves the problem.
