Export Quicktime Conversion - slow when I walk off and leave computer?

Has anybody noticed this issue - when I export using QT conversion - and I walk off to leave it - it seems like it takes much longer than if I sat using the computer keeping it 'awake'...Well - I say awake but the OS doesnt go into sleep...
Sometimes if I return to check on it and wake the monitor - the % is often at say 23% - but will shoot up when I return...as if it had some sort of freeze...either way its **** slow and Im starting to look at Premier Pro...
Any ideas?

That's the monitor refreshing after you woke it up. Quite normal.
either way its ** slow...
You didn't tell us the codec that you are converting from or the codec you are converting to.
How long is the movie and how long is "slow"?

    Is the battery charged?
    By factory reset, do you mean you "restored" the iPhone?

  • My Airport Time Capsule only works when I turn off and turn on, but I think this may end up with the unit. What can this happening and how to solve?

    Time Capsule Airport
    Hello to all, good day, sorry my english google, but it is the tool I have at the moment. I'm having trouble with my Time Capsule Airport, I made all the settings according to the manual, but there has been a connection problem with my iMac. When I finish my work I turn off the imac and then again when they return to work and care, it can not connect to Time Capsule Airport, making it impossible to remove the files and make back up by Time Machine only works when I turn off and turn on the Airport Time Capsule , but I think this may end up with the unit. What can this happening and how to solve? Thank you.
    Olá a todos, bom dia, desculpe meu inglês google, mas é a ferramenta que tenho no momento. Estou tendo dificuldades com a minha Airport Time Capsule, fiz todas as configurações de acordo com o manual, mas tem existido um problema de conexão com meu iMac. Quando termino meus trabalhos desligo o imac e depois quando retorno pra trabalhar novamente e ligo, ele não se conecta a Airport Time Capsule, impossibilitando retirar os arquivos e fazer o back-up pelo Time Machine, só funciona quando desligo e ligo a Airport Time Capsule, mas acho que isso pode acabar com o aparelho. O que pode esta acontecendo e como resolver? Obrigado.

    This is easier to do with pictures perhaps.. since we do not share a common language and machine translation leaves a lot to be desired.
    In the airport utility bring up your Time Capsule.
    Simply post the screenshots here.
    So here is mine.
    Click on the Edit button and give us the Internet and Wireless and Network tab..
    eg.
    Please also make sure you are set to ipv6 in your wireless or ethernet .. whichever is used.. and do tell which.
    This is wifi in your computer.
    The following are important..
    DO not use long names with spaces and non-alphanumeric names.
    Use short names, no spaces and pure alphanumeric.
    eg TC name. TCgen5
    Wireless name TCwifi
    Use WPA2 Personal security with 10-20 character pure alphanumeric password.
    read apple instructions to help with TM and TC.. they did finally admit it has issues in Mavericks.
    OS X Mavericks: Time Machine problems
    Mount the TC manually in finder.
    AFP://TCgen5.local
    When asked for the password .. that is the disk access password and save it in the keychain.
    Reset Time Machine

    What operating system version, and do you have any backups of your data off the machine? TimeMachine? Option Key bootable clones? Storage? DVD's?
    A reinstall of the operating system may be in order as a last resort, so if any of these steps on these links get you into the machine, make sure to backup your personal data (Music, Pictures, Documents, Movies) off the machine to a non-encrypted  powered external drive regular storage drive (not TimeMachine as it might be corrupted too) and disconnect as soon as possible.
    Good Luck and report back all what you tried.
    Also report what change occured before this tragedy happened, was there a  Software Update? A EFI firmware update? Etc.

    What I should do now?

    Something has gone wrong. Turn your phone off, then force it into recovery mode:
    Leave the USB cable connected to your computer, but NOT your phone, iTunes running, press & hold the home button while connecting the USB cable to your dock connector, continue holding the home button until you see “Connect to iTunes” on the screen. You may now release the home button. iTunes should now display that it has detected your phone in recovery mode, if not quit and reopen iTunes. If you still don’t see the recovery message repeat these steps again. iTunes will give you the option to restore from a backup or set up as new. In your case, select "new".

  • Apple TV 3 slow to download from iCloud and connected computer.

    Apple TV 3 slow to download from iCloud and connected computer. Wired via ethernet with very fast upload and download speeds. Can anyone help please? Accessing YouTube is even incredibly slow. Have reset, no joy. Have changed DNS to Google DNS, no joy.

    Resolved!  Disabled BT Home Hub as wireless. Removed Devolo wireless plugs from house. Removed TP link powerline adapters (Apple TV was connected to ethernet). Set Time Capsule as the only wireless point in the house. Interestingly, if you have more than 1 access point in the house, BT Home Hub can get a little confused - so removing its wireless capability via the admin function via advanced settings basically set Time Capsule as only access point in the house). Changed DNS on Windows 7 machine to Open DNS.....(FYI, outside of US & Canada, Google DNS is pretty much useless and won't speed up your download speeds on Apple TV).  Restored Apple TV to factory settings and started again. Downloads from iCloud almost instant; downloads from shared computer almost instant; streaming from YouTube and Netflix almost instant. Happy days....

  • Is it possible to create a new preset for Export/Quicktime Conversion ?

    Hi,
    I was wondering if there is a way to make a new export preset for the Export with Quicktime Conversion, in FCE HD 3.5
    I am working on preparing a file for YouTube, and finding that some of the video effects render differently when exported, so I am having to render a couple of tests, but with YouTube's new 640x360 16:9 format, there is no easy way to do this other than checking the settings at each export. If one could make a new preset, it would be much easier. Any ideas?
    Thanks,
    t

    thankyousir.
    I think that Apple could add this, easily, as a feature to what, essentially, is QT Pro, and its embedded brother in FCE. Apple could also release a tiny update for QT including the new YouTube format... I haven't checked if iMovie knows about this new resolution, though it does upload directly to the tube itself.
    Thanks for your time,
    T

  • Export-- Quicktime Conversion totally corrupts??? (help!)

    Ok,
    in FCP 5.1.2 in an HDV timeline (1080i, Sony Z1U) my clips play fine.
    When I export to quicktime movie, my HDV movie works great and I can convert it to other formats, including DV/NTSC standard def.
    However, if I try to (directly from my HDV timeline) export to quicktime conversion (DV/NTSC codec, high quality, 720x405 standard definition 16:9) things get weird. some of my movie looks and sounds good, but seemingly random clips from my movie are out of sync. I examined it carefully and found that during the export, some clips actually shifted around timecode-wise. Hard to explain. Basically, within my exported SD movie, some clips from my timeline start a half second or so before they actually should.
    My movie is a documentary. When it cuts to someone for an interview, for example, playing the timeline shows them begin speaking when they should. Export to an SD version, and suddenly when it cuts to the speaker, they are looking at the camera, and then blink a few times, and then begin speaking, even though the audio is playing out of sync now with the video. Somehow FCP is reaching into my clips' handles-- footage that is not even visible in any track-- footage that is before where the timecode says the clip should start.
    examining the files directly in the finder reveals all to be well, as far as i can tell. but obviously there is corruption of some kind, either the codec or my drive. but I tried two different computers and it did the same thing.
    anybody understand my problem? make sense at all? my FCP problems never seem like problems others have had.

    I think you need to do that render/resolve thingie before exporting HDV...

  • Exporting Quicktime conversion

    I've got some DVCPro HD footage from an HVX I shot recently and edited. I'm trying to export the cut via Quicktime conversion H264. It exports fine but always 4X3 (Squeezed). I can't find a setting to tell it to export 16X9, the way it was recorded, although in the preview when checking settings it shows as 16X9. Any ideas? TIA

    What Lamont said. You have to change the dimensions to still be a 16:9 ratio. I so 620x360...which is half 1280x720...

  • FCE Crashes on Export Quicktime conversion

    Have captured and edited DV PAL. All goes well until Export-Using Quicktime Conversion. Software shuts down. All data lost from project. Anyone any ideas?
    Running FCE 4.0.1 in Leopard on an intel macbook with 2ghz of ram.

    Exactly what QT Conversion settings are you using?
    Just in case there is a problem with FCE, delete the user preference files as described here:-

    Note that you will have to reset your Easy Setup and any special preferences you may have configured.
