Exporting Flash Movie to QuickTime Movie...

I am having problems Exporting from Flash to QT. I go through the steps and all appears to going well, except when it comes to the final bars of export, that is when the exporting stops. What is going on here? Any suggestion on correcting the problem? Please help.

The same thing happens to me. It is a bug with Adobe Flash. I convert my Flash projects with Visual Hub or After Effects CS4. Handbrake can convert Flash to QT now, but the quality, while acceptable is not as good as Visual Hub which is now out of business.
The other thing that I suggest is lengthen your time when coverting to QT so as not to chop off your video. Then edit, cut the excess time in QT pro.

  • Need to export Movie to Quicktime Movie w/ similar file size and quality.

    Let me preface in that I am not in the video editing profession. Many times I have exported my work to the professionals. I'm sure knowing what you're doing is half of the battle. Here is my dilemma. First, I'm using Quicktime pro just to add a text track to the movie. I  then save the file as what Quicktime pro calls Movie .mov. This looks good and has the quality of the original .mov and the small data size. However, no other player than quicktime will recognize the text track. I then tried exporting from Movie to quicktime movie format (still .mov, can anyone explain the difference of the two .mov types???), but I find that the image quality is poor. Yet, in the quicktime format other players (except windows media player) recognize the text track. By poor quality I mean that I think what I have is the blocking effect. I assume that this is due to the bitrate being to low. Again, I would like to keep the file size low and managable for data storage and downloading purposes. I was hoping that in the end all video players would be able to have no issues.
    My current file sized are all less than 1MB and are of good quality.
    Just adding a small test track the Movie .mov is still less than 1MB
    The size of the image is 512x512
    I should also say that I'm a PC user with a quicktime pro windows version. I'm sure that doesn't help me one bit!! However, I believe my issues are more with the fact that I'm not experienced in compressing files and knowing exactly the right settings.
    Here is what I've tried thus far. Movie to quicktime movie
    H264 codec
    Current for fps (Which is in the original is 8fps)
    Key frames automatic
    frame reordering checked
    I've tried Automatic data rate and setting the bit rate, even at 2000kbps (the quality is low). My original movie with the highest kbps is only 1151kbps and has no artifacts
    encoding Best quality multi-pass
    custom size 512x512
    deinterlace checked

    am i correct that this 'my photo stream' process is not removing any image data?
    Yes,  as long as you have iPhoto's iCloud preference pane configures as follows:
    You're be getting the full image file, pixel dimensions, etc. which is essentially a bit by bit copy of the photo on the Phone.
    When you add tags and other metadata and export the file out of iPhoto as a jpeg with the checkboxes selected to include that metadata there will be some image compression.  However, if one chooses High or even Medium JPEG Quality one will be hard pressed to detect any image degradation unless printing very, large prints or otherwise displaying the image at a very, large size.
    I ran a test on a 1.4 MB photo from my iPhone  and compared the original to two exports, one at High and the other at Medium JPEG Quality and got these results:

  • Export a Full Quality QuickTime Movie for CD

    Hello - I have an 11 min. movie, that contains mostly pics, but also some video - I will be giving it to someone to play on there computer, which will also project onto a screen, during a wedding reception. She just wants to be able to load it into her computer - what is the most effective way of doing this?
    I thought about exporting to a 720x480 Quicktime movie, using Qtime Conversion in FCP, and H.264 compression - is there a better way, so that it will show the best quality? After burning the movie to a QT file onto a CD, I thought I would then give to her to download - is this the proper way to do this type of thing?
    Any suggestions are most appreciated as always - thank you...

    KL -
    That might be fine... thing is you WANT to have her test it. Sometimes playing large files like this (yes, even at h264) can choke a pc pushing it out to a projection unit.
    I like putting it back to tape and sending it full rez out of a deck or other video camera.
    I never trust PCs to even play a DVD out.

  • Best Data Rate for Export to DVD as Quicktime Movie

    Hello - hope someone out there can help me!!!
    I put together a slideshow for my high school reunion using iMovie HD 5.0.2 and need help with settings exporting it as a Quicktime movie.
    *I want to export it to a DVD* so that I can play it on a friend's laptop and I'm not sure if iDVD would be the way to go - my friend has a Macbook Pro I can borrow so it might be okay - I am worried about the fact that I've been working on older software. (I have read about opening iDVD and bringing in iMovie project vs. "share to iDVD"). So they suggested instead of iDVD I just export as a quicktime. Then I can burn it in Toast (v.6.0.2)
    Wondering about *BEST DATA RATE?*
    In export settings I have:
    compressor set at H.264
    frame rate: current (should that be DV-NTSC?)
    key frames: automatic (?)
    encoding: best quality/multi-pass
    should data rate be automatic?
    Some details that might be relevant to helping me:
    *Stills brought in as clips with cross-dissolves, only two uses of "Ken Burns effect"
    *Some stills were in the project from my LAST reunion - I realize I should have reimported all the stills since I am now recompressing them, but it's too late now!
    *no audio
    *Slideshow is about 45 mins long, file size says 5.52GB although when I looked into exporting it last night it said 9+GB - not sure why
    *Using a G4 Tower (not my ancient laptop) with OS 10.4.11, Dual 533MHz PowerPC, 1.5GB SDRAM
    iDVD version is 6.0.4
    please help if you can!! thank you in advance...

    Are you trying to burn a standard DVD or are you trying to put a QuickTime .mov file on DVD media?
    A standard DVD doesn't worry about file size (only the duration).
    A "data" DVD is limited to the type of media used. A single layer DVD is about 3.7 GB's.
    In order to make a data DVD you need to keep the data rate low enough to not exceed the DVD media playback abilities. They can't handle the higher rates found in many of the preset options.
    You can avoid all of these headaches by telling the viewer to "copy" the .mov file from the DVD to their Desktop. Then nearly any of the presets option will work.
    H.264 is a great video codec and the "automatic" preset should work just fine. Use "multi-pass" for best quality (takes a very long time). Remove the check mark for "Audio" since your file has none. Leave it checked and you waste file size because a silent audio track would be added.

  • Html codes for a flash and a quicktime movie

    I'm building a new webpage and I want to put a flash and a quicktime movie in every page......now that the new iWeb has the html snippet option I was wondering if there is anyway of embeding the movies with html code in a way that I just have to replace the movie file instead of putting the movies in every page all over again every time I want to update the site
    Thanks

    Code for Flash inclusion is here: http://artotems.com/test.aspx as well as many other examples.
    It's intended for PC OL users but can be used for any site with HTML access. There are many clear examples on the site. I know I wrote them.

  • Keynote does not export music into a Quicktime Movie

    I created a 75 frame Keynote 08 presentation with looped music and exported it into a Quicktime movie, but the music does not play. The audio does appear in the Quicktime "Properties" but does not play. Help!

    My apologies! I went about a VERY lengthy search and just did not find anything to my satisfaction other than people stating that they had the same problem. Just search for phrases like 'Keynote music export QuickTime' and I guarantee you'll find a lot of results. My best bet was to export the movie (went fine) and then to import the movie into iMovie, add the soundtrack and re-export. My main problem was figuring out the best format from iMovie. Choosing the wrong one gives absolutely horrible movie quality compared to the Keynote export.
    The frustrating thing is that you can't tell the movie quality until a, oh, 15-30min rendering of your movie depending on the size and trying that with several setting arrangements adds up to too much time for me. For my situation, I was able to just play the movie and play a cd on a boombox in the background. It was not my desired choice but after hours and hours of trying I gave up...
    Sorry I'm not more helpful. It just looks like this is a bug Apple needs to fix.

  • How do you move a quicktime movie from one iphoto library to another?

    How do you move a quicktime movie from one iphoto library to another?

    1 - export it from Library A via the File ➙ Export ➙ File Export menu with Kind = Original.
    2 - import it into Library B as you normally would.

  • Can't Export from FCE to QuickTime Movie w/o recompression

    I have problems with choosing the correct settings for export of a FCE video clip to QuickTime Movie. I want the best possible quality (without recompression).
    In the manual it says:
    "Exporting a Self-Contained Movie Without Recompressing the Media
    If you choose to export a self-contained movie, you have the option to not recompress the media in your clip or sequence. If you deselect the Recompress All Frames option and choose Current Settings from the Setting pop-up menu, Final Cut Express simply copies frames from existing media files into the new file with no recompression."
    I can't find that option in FCE 4.01 - is it a mistake in the manual? My source media was captured from miniDV tape and the captured media file has the following formate:
    Codec: DV/DVCPRO - NTSC, Linear PCM, Timecode
    Color profile: SD (6-1-6)
    Total bit rate: 29,794
    My exported file has this format:
    Dimensions: 720 x 480
    Codec: Linear PCM, H.264
    Color Profile: SD (6-1-6)
    Audio Channels: 2
    Total bit rate: 2,151
    I have seen this question in the FCE archive and people simply say there is no recompression in FCE Export to QT Movie, but clearly there is since I see the H.264 codec listed in my output file and the bit-rate is a about 1/14th the rate of the original source material. The output file size is also much smaller. What gives. How can I get an unrecompressed file out of FCE so I can send it to a coworker for futher editing with his FCE.

    Does anyone else have anything to add to this thread. I'm, sure I'm using Export to QuickTime Movie and not using QuickTime Conversion and from the file specifications I've given above, it is clear that a 14:1 compression took place.
    Doug
    Double check:
    There are only three options in the QuickTime Movie export window.
    1. Include: The Audio and Video, Audio Only or Video Only.
    2. Markers: Select whateve you want or don't want.
    3. The Make Movie Self-Contained selection check box.
    Is this what  you see?
    The export will mirror the Sequence or selected part of the Sequence.

  • Exporting HDV to Small Quicktime Movie

    I need to export an HDV sequence (1440x1080) to a 320x240 Quicktime movie. Can anyone please help me on how I can export this and maintain the aspect ratio. I have tried to export it using the Quicktime conversion, but it comes out squished. Any tips would be greatly appreciated. I am currently using Final Cut Pro 5.

    Why 320X240? It's a 4:3 aspect ratio, and the only way you'll get your 16:9 images in that size is to letter box it in a 4:3 sequence, then export that letterboxed movie... Or use a pan and scan technique (cropping the original) and fill a 4:3 aspect ratio that way... but you can't get a 16:9 aspect ratio of images to fit right in 4:3 aspect any other way... other than to export as a 16:9 movie.
    You can in QT conversion, select it to be letterboxed using the H.264 codec too I think if it must be that size. I think 320X180 would come out right using compressor instead...

  • Exporting from imovie to quicktime movie

    I have a 1080i HD movie in imovie I want to export to a quicktime file. In imovie the file is 50 gigabites. When I export at full quality it turns it from 16:9 to 4:3. When I go to expert settings and render it to a quicktime movie only the sound comes through...no video. This only happens with this particular movie. Other short movies I have are compressed to quicktime in HD just fine. I need suggestions how to render this from imovie to quicktime so I can keep the video in HD.

    I tried that and it makes a file without
    video...sound only.
    Itsounds like you didn't have the Sound box checked.

  • Having difficulty exporting FCE sequence as Quicktime movie

    I've completed a couple of short 5-6 minute FCE movies using FCE HD 3.0. I can't get them to export to Quicktime movies for placement on the desk top. Every time I try I get the "General error: Out of disk space" warning. I've got oodles of space on the hard drive. I looked through the manual and on page 853 it talks about managing disk space, stating that I might want to delete old render files. I'm not sure if this is relevant; there aren't that many render files. Anyway, I'm not at all easy about deleting render files any way; what if I want to go back and rework some clips? Any help you can give me would be appreciated. Thanks.

    Dan,
    Use the Finder to check the space available on your system drive. Tell us exactly what size the disk is and how much space is available. ("oodles" doesn't tell us very much)
    Also, are you using any external drives. If so, what are they, what size are they, how much free space is on them, and are you connecting them via FireWire or USB.
    What version of QuickTime do you have on your iMac? How much RAM?

  • Should I export captured clips as Quicktime movies?

    Do I need to export my captured clips as Quicktime movies if I want to import them as source clips in other projects?
    I had been importing directly from the capture scratch folder, but this resulted in mono audio tracks, rather than stereo. Everything else looked fine...
    This problem has been driving me nuts...perhaps this is the explanation.

    I figured it out elsewhere.

  • How to export still frame from Quicktime movie?

    Hello folks
    I often need to use a still frame from a quicktime movie as an image file to work with in PhotoShop for windows.
    If I export a frame via the export command and choose "Movie to picture" I end up with a .pct file, that Photoshop will not open.
    I can open the .pct file with the Quicktime PictureViewer and then export it from that app as i.e. a JPEG-file, but I would like to avoid that extra step and just export a usable file straight from QT.
    Anybody know how that can be done?
    Best regards
    Kris

    Same problem here - no matter whether I choose Photo - JPEG or PNG format as the "compressor", QT 7 Pro wants to save with a .pct extension, and changing it to .jpg or .png extension fails to open.
    The two workarounds I've found are:
    1. Save it in Photo - JPEG or PNG format with a .pct extension, open with Photoshop CS4 or below, save to desired format.
    One may be able to accomplish the same using Preview instead of Photoshop, but on my Snow Leopard machine I get the error "The PICT file format is not supported in 64-bit mode. Try selecting "Open in 32 Bit Mode" in the Finder's info window for Preview." and I don't feel like bothering to do this.
    2. Use Grab to take a screenshot, copy into Preview, crop as necessary and save to desired format.
    Which is easier depends on whether you feel like having to do precision cropping or not. Totally agree with above commenters - whither PICT, Apple?

  • Exporting slideshow as a Quicktime movie in iPhoto6?

    I just upgraded to version 6, and I'm not seeing a way to export a slideshow in QT format like there was in the other version.
    I tried the help section in the drop down menu, but it says the page isn't found. I did a search, but I didn't find anything.
    Did Apple remove this option and just not tell anyone?
    Please help...I need to export some slideshows as QT movies for some projects I have (it has to be a stand-alone but NOT a DVD).
    Thanks.

  • Exporting Flash 8 to Quicktime?

    I am currently using Flash Pro 8. I publish Quick Time MOV
    file. I got a message saying :
    "The installed version of Quick Time does not support this
    type of Macromedia Flash movie. Quick Time requires Macromedia
    Flash version 5 or before. Please select "version Flash Player 5"
    in the Flash tab of the Publish Setting dialog."
    I select Flash Player 5. But it still give me this message. I
    tried changing publishing settings and publishing it and exporting
    it with the same message popping up no matter what I do. I'm using
    a new iMac with the most up to date version of Quick time I
    believe. What am I doing wrong? How do I get this to export or
    publish as a Quicktime mov?

    Unfortunately, you can't export from a .fla file to a .mov
    file anymore using Flash 8 unless you uninstall quicktime and
    reinstall an older version on your mac. Another option is to
    upgrade your Flash 8 to CS3 Flash 9. I have a PC and had the same
    problem, but after upgrading to CS3 Flash 9 it seems the problem
    has been fixed. Now, if someone could just tell me how or why I no
    longer have the option to export from a .fla file into a .flv file
    anymore that would make my day!
