Exporting individual frames to iphoto

Is it possible to export an individual frame from imovie to iphoto as a single photograph?  How do you do it?

First, get an app called MPEG Streamclip, which is free. (google MPEG Streamclip from Squared 5)
Open MPEG Streamclip.
In iMovie, select the clip you need. Then, right-click/Reveal in Finder.
Drag this clip into MPEG Streamclip
In MPEG Streamclip, move the playhead to the frame you want.
In MPEG Streamclip, click FILE/EXPORT FRAME.
Choose JPEG, TIFF, or PNG and give it a name.
You can then drag this photo into iPhoto.

  • Time of Individual Frame in IPhoto:  Redux Clarification

    Cannot adjust time of individual frame in slideshow IN IPHOTO 08 itself. Time choice "frozen' at the standard 3 secs setting for the rest of the slideshow. The button in 'ADJUST' selection doesn't respond to mouse click.
    Thanks

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Try the following: close iPhoto, delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your User/Library/Preferences folder, launch iPhoto and see if that helps.
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier versions) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. There are versions that are compatible with iPhoto 5, 6, 7 and 8 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
    NOTE: iPhoto 8's new option in the library rebuild pane, "Rebuild the iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup" may make this tip obsolete. We'll know when users have occasion to use it and see if that's the case.

  • How do I import individual frames from iMovie into iPhoto?

    How do I import individual frames from iMovie into iPhoto? Or how do I export individual frames from iMovie into iPhoto? My final goal is to have a DVD of individual photos from a video I recently shot. Thanks

    Here is one way to do it, although you will see there could be variations.
    1) Open iMovie
    2) Start a new project - name it Stills for iPhoto (or a name of your choice)
    3) Go to your EVENT. Find the spot with the cursor that you want a photo of. Right-click (or control-click if you don't have a mouse) and select ADD STILL FRAME TO PROJECT.
    4) The photo should be in the Project called Stills for iPhoto.
    5) Right-click (control-click) on the photo and select REVEAL IN FINDER.
    6)When the finder window opens, right-click and select COPY. Go to your Desktop or a folder of your choice and right-click PASTE
    7) Drag the photo from your Desktop to iPhoto

  • Why is it that when I choose to export an individual frame, the wrong frame always gets exported?

    The problem I am having has to do with the "export frame" button. When I choose to export a frame, rather than exporting the frame that I have selected, it exports a frame two frame backward from the one that appears in my canvas. Anyone know if there is a solution to this problem? or is it just a glitch that has gone unnoticed by the Adobe team?

  • Exporting as Albums in iPhoto

    Hi. I just purchased an HP MediaSmart Server and would like to export all my photos to reside on the server. iPhoto exports single albums or the whole library. Is there a utility (or anything??) that would take my whole library and export all the albums automatically. Right now I would have to do each album individually.
    Thanks!

    This didn't work for me.  I'm using iPhoto '11, with OS 10.7.5 Lion.  When I export a photo from iPhoto to my desktop, then open it in Preview and go to the Inspector, the Created Date and the Modified Date are both today, not the date in Dec. 2008 when the photo was taken.
    This is a pretty big issue.  Why does this happen?
    Probably you are looking at the file metadata in the inspector not the photo EXIF metadata as TD's example shows

  • Exporting .avi video from iphoto

    I have a new Nikon coolpix S3500 point & shoot camera and it does video that imports to iPhoto11 just fine.   I can export a 30 second video to the desktop and I get a non-working .avi video when I open in QTpro consisting of the first frame only and size is 205KB.  I can drag to the desktop and I get a working file with the .avi extension and a size of 21KB which only works on my computer in QTpro.  In QTpro I can save it as a .mov file and its over 20MB in size that I can take to any computer.  My iPhone videos in iPhoto exports as .mov as does my Canon EOS Ti1 SLR videos.    There does not appear to be a way for iPhoto to export the coolpix videos as .mov or as a working file.    If I go into iMovie I can see the video and can work with it there.   I'm not understanding: the video is there in iPhoto, but I cannot export it directly to the desktop to pass along.  Appreciate someone explaining please.

    There does not appear to be a way for iPhoto to export the coolpix videos as .mov or as a working file.
    As a working file: File -> Export and set the Kind it Original. This User Tip
    https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4921
    has details of the options in the Export dialogue.
    No, iPhoto has no ability to transcode video to different formats.

  • DVD movie frame into iPhoto

    Old movies were put DVD and use DVD PLAYER for viewing. I would like to import individual frames (cells) to iPhoto.
    How can I do so.

    Thank you. This works quite well. When I grab the picture it only saves as TIFF, which I than open in PhotoshopElements6 and convert to jpeg and than import to iPhoto. A little convoluted but is a very worthwhile solution.

  • Exporting individual pics a certain way?

    I am trying to figure out how to exporting individual pics of my selection.
    If I right-click and go to export, the closest I see is to export and burn
    and then I have just been canceling the burn as this route let me choose a
    default folder. What I really want is to be able to select a resolution to
    export and the folder. The purpose for this is to use in a new digital photo
    frame that I got. The format, being that I have both jpg's and raw files,
    would be jpg's. Anyone have any help here? Do I need a script of sorts? If
    so, what would that script look like? Thanks much.

  • How can I export a slideshow from iPhoto to iMovie 09.  I try but it only lets me import 211 out of the 311 photos I have in the slideshow.

    How can I export a slideshow from iPhoto to iMovie 09.  I try, but it only exports 211 out of the 311 photos I have in the slideshow I made on iPhoto.

    how do i change the format to the right one?
    Before you can decide what to do, you have to know what you are starting with. Sony MPEG-1 files would be converted one way while DivX or WMV files would likely be handled in another. Extraneous tracks can be removed directly with QT Pro but if you don't have QT Pro then there may or may not be other work around possibilities depending on the specific audio and video compression formats in use. The best place to start would normally be to double-clic the source file in iPhoto to open it in the QT Player. When it opens in the QT Player, check the "Inspector" window to see what it says on the "Format:" lines. This will tell you the type of audio and video content you are dealing with here. Then come and tell us so we can offer some specific conversion solutions.

  • How do I display the individual frames of a clip in the timeline?

    I've imported an image sequence into Premiere Pro and dragged it into a video track so it shows up as a clip. So far, so good. But when I click on the display options for the track and "Show Frames", all it gives me are these large, unhelpful thumbnails along the the length of the clip that don't even match the timeline ruler at the top. I can't select individual frames to shuffle them around or delete them. I've tried looking in Preferences, View, etc., all over the internet through different forums, and right clicking everywhere in every window to try and find an option to turn on an individual frame view, and I found zilch. Any help with this problem would be much appreciated.

    No, it's not. The 'order' of animation is something that has to be carefully planned and tweaked by the animator, and anyway, there are different kinds of animation. Some is completely abstract, without any apparent order. And if all you have is a raw image sequence, like I do, then sometimes you have mistakes in one frame that were corrected in another, and you want to find them and take them out, not to mention experimenting with the timing. Let's say you have a motion that makes an arc in 12 drawings. If you take out 2 or 3 at different places towards the end, you can give the appearance that the animation subject complete the arc at an accelerated pace without the motion seeming 'incorrect.'
    What I need to do is to be able to grab and pull individual frames like this so I can properly put together my project.

  • SWF movie export on frame-by-frame basis WITH actionscript

    Hi there,
    I know they're two ways of exporting flash movies:
    Export the whole timeline. This only allows timeline animations and gets messy because you have to cram up everything on the main timeline.
    Realtime-Export via Quicktime. This is a "full blown" export, but heavily dependent on CPU power or speed of harddrive, depending on resolution.
    I also work a lot with music programs and there is an option called "mixdown". This will render the whole song - as fast as the processor is capable - to a WAV-file. So time doesn't matter anymore, notes don't get skipped, etc.
    I would like to see something like this in flash, too. WITH actionscript.
    I just want flash to export one frame for each "onEnterFrame" event, NOT when the timer tells you, it's time for a "next frame". So this would mean not to trigger the onEnterEvent when the appropiate time has passed, but to trigger it, when the next frame can be exported.
    Libraries like "TweenLite/Max" are capable of doing frame-based animations, independent from the timer, so everything on that end is pretty fine.
    Would be so great if that was possible in any way.
    Is it already in CS5? Or maybe an option in CS6... argh, so many years to wait...
    until then, I have to measure the fps, look out for the lowest number, export at THAT framerate (in most of the cases just 4 or 5 fps, even on a very fast computer - just because 2 or 3 frames happen to render slower than the other 200) and afterwarts set it to 25 again (I use Blender to do this)

    Greg-
    Good Lead - Thanks.
    I learned that having skinned components (which this uses)
    keeps this preloader from working properly. The results were
    unstable. It looks like a great little preloader for other things
    though.
    I also learned that it's a problem that others have
    encountered and that hasnt been solved yet...
    ...."hello Adobe?"
    Thanks again for helping me understand this.

  • Is there a way to export individual page items as PDF or EPS?

    I have a long document, all threaded, with a bunch of inline graphics. Many of the inline graphics have callouts and pointer lines. I take the graphics, callouts, and pointers, group them, and then cut and paste the group inline into the text flow. I want to be able to tag the graphic (complete with pointers and callouts) for an XML export. But I cannot tag a grouped object. I remember learning at the PeP conference in May that one way was to build the graphic with callouts in AI, and then place it into ID. But I already have an established workflow, with hundred of grouped inline objects in my ID docs.
    So I was wondering if there is a script that will allow me to export individual page page items as PDF or EPS. I know that you can export page items as JPEG, but I don't want rasterized text. Please assist. Thanks.

  • Export in frame 1

    I have a simple question.
    I am using version CS6 and in the symbols properties panel that you get when you right click a symbol (in my library) and go to properties, there is a checkbox under Advanced, and it says "Export in frame 1". Now i know what it is to link a symbol to a class, but i dont know what this means. Should i check it? Please enlighten me on this, I have checked all adobe resources, and have found nothing on it.

    typically you would leave that checked.
    but if you did not need some resources loaded in frame 1 and their download is delaying the download of other assets and causing a problem, you can uncheck that and, in the publish settings>advanced actionscript settings, assign classes to export in a frame other than 1.
