Exporting quizzes to .mov format

I want to use Captivate to add interactivity to a Quicktime-based training video I'm building. I don't want to add the Quicktime files to Captivate as a project, because I need to the video to be available in several formats.
Basically, I want to make quizzes in Captivate, export them as video files, and incorporate them into a larger video project through Final Cut Pro. However, FCP only accepts .MP4 or .MOV files, not Flash.
Is this possible? Can I retain the interactivity of the quiz in a quicktime-based file?
Thanks!

Welcome to our community
I'm going to crawl way out here on this shaky little limb and claim it won't be easy (assuming it's possible at all).
Here's why I make that claim. To get the Captivate into a video format that Final Cut Pro may accept will almost certainly require that you publish as some form of video based format. And the inherent problem with this is that to the best of my knowledge (and I never claim to be remotely close to knowing it all, so I could be wrong) video formats are "view only" and that means no interactivity.
I really hope someone with a definitive answer for you comes along to either confirm or refute what my belief is!
Cheers... Rick

Photoshop CS6 export video to MOV format

I have a few MOV format videos that I need to rotate and re-save with PS CS6. I've never tried video editing with Photoshop, and this must be the most basic of basic starts in my next career as a film producer. I assume I just go to Image > Image Rotation as one does with image files? Then when I export the video, and select QuickTime MOV format, the resulting file does not actually have any video in it -- only audio. And despite having no video apparently, the file size is huuuge.
So what gives? Am I doing something wrong? I have QuickTime viewer installed, but do not have a licence for QuickTime full version. Is that it?
Shall I just export to mp4 and be done with it? I would prefer to be consistent... so that I have all MOV files (I won't have to rotate / edit all video files, only some).
Thanks,
Mike

I have QuickTime viewer installed, but do not have a licence for QuickTime full version. Is that it?
Apple has two QuickTime products - QT Player (free), and QT Pro (~ US $29). The installation is for both versions, but with the Pro purchase, you can unlock some additional features, like the ability to do rudimentary editing, and more Export options. I have been told that the Pro version has some additional CODEC's, that are unlocked, but I have my suspicions. However, as I have had the Pro versions on all computers from about 7.1, I cannot even check that out.
Historically, if one has purchased Pro, and used the unlock feature with the S/N, then all point upgrades carry though, so if you had 7.5.5 Pro, and updated that to 7.8, you would still have Pro. Again historically, if they went to version 8, then one would need to purchase another Pro license. Not sure how this will work, when the version 8 does hit for the PC. We will just have to wait and see.
Now, the QT Animation CODEC is a good one, that should work (files WILL be large), and that is what I receive from my contract 3D artists, to use in my Premiere Pro Projects. I would think that should work fine, but you are having issues. As a test, try the PNG (might be called Photo PNG?), and see if you do get your Video. That is also a good choice of CODEC.
Good luck,
Hunt

Error 43 when exporting to a mov format

I added music (mp3) to a photo presentation (.mov). I could watch the combined show in Quicktime Player. However, when I tried to export the final output as a .mov file, I kept getting an Error 43 (missing file). I've uninstalled and reinstalled my Quicktime Pro but I'm still having the same problem.

Hi,
As you correctly noticed the Error 43 is arguing due a non found file. I would suggest you to place a copy of the resources used in the new clip under the same folder (music and presentation) and then do a Save as from QT Pro file menu. That should create a new file with both resources correctly linked.
Kind Regards,
Javier

Help me! Audition always failing exports to wav, mov, and Premiere Pro! WHY???

Hello,
I am sound editing and mixing a picture locked 25 min short film. When done with the mix and ready to export the mixdown, the export always takes forever (the project is 12GB large total) I mixdown to stereo file wav, but when I open the file, both VLC and Media Player don't play, with WMP saying its corrupt. I bring the same file into Premiere, and it says that it cannot import "because of a header problem"! What is that? I tried the same with the export to Quicktime (mov) format, and I got the same result. Go up to the window and choose Export to Premiere (you know, directly into Premeire) and it says it it will take 12 hours. I don't remeber cs5.5 taking this long. HELP PLEASE, I need to export this by tonight!!!
Export settings(both formats):
Convvert to 48 khz
Convert to 24 bt (32 with mov; only option)
tried both RF64 and Legacy Chunk whatever
Premeire Pro freindly setting on in Preferences
Windows 7 64 Pro
INtel Core i7 930
16GB RAM
GeForce GTS 250

I don't think a file of that length should exceed 4GB, but be aware that Audition CAN export wave files larger than that due to the RF64 support (vs. 'legacy chunk'), and Premiere can't yet open RF64 giga-wave-files!
Now, other than telling you that this shouldn't be happening, we'll need more information before we can track down what's wrong. Best thing is to detail for us what your export settings are, precisely.

Exporting fla to mov.

I have a fla file and I am trying to export it to MOV format.
I have removed all the stop(); calls from the project, but the flash works for 20 minutes and than stops on Recording Flash Content.
How can I deal with that?
I am using Flash CS5.5 and tried on both Mac and PC

First, a DVD is 29.97fps not 30fps and 0.9 pixel aspect ratio for NTSC, 25fps for PAL. I'm going to assume you want North America so NTSC but you tell me. 24fps is strictly for HD content (1280x720 and 1920x1080) and sometimes 23.976.
If you have Adobe Encore it can help you create your DVD and do some conversion for you, although I've used the app less times than I have fingers.
That said, export to movie is Adobes "best shot" at letting you export to a video format but it is not very flexable. You need to stick to a strict diet of timeline tweens to see anything happen properly. If you start coding, chances are your movie will fail to export properly.
You said .mov. That makes me assume you're playing a movie somewhere in the timeline. Is this using a "component" like FLVPlayback or is it a MovieClip? The component is a code based video player so (I assume) it would probably not work at all. You'd need to literally lay the imported MOV into a movieclip and play it like that.
Export for movie should be treated as a very dumbed down function that rarely works in Flash. You might have more luck exporting a working SWF and using a SWF->Movie converter utility. There's been tons of post on the forum even recently about utilities to convert SWFs to movies.

Jagged images after export to .mov format

Hi everyone reading,
In a project I'm working on in FlashCS3 Pro, I have a problem
with export > Quicktime film > ect.
When the encoding to the .mov format is finished and I play
my new created movie in QuickTime
a lot of images are jagged, not complete or the previous
frame remains in the vieuw.
How can I get a real clean and proper encoding from a .fla to
QuickTime H.264 or QT Animation?

Welcome to the discussions, evorot69.
If your original file is an MPEG file, you'll need to use MPEG Streamclip in order to convert it to an iPhone format WITH the audio.

After installing iTunes, Flash no longer exports .MOV format...

Hi -
I have been using Flash 8 to do animated titling for my podcasts.
But after installing iTunes 7, Flash 8 will no longer export .MOV format. It tells me a Quicktime compenent cannot be found.
Also, QuickTime Pro will not actually play Flash .SWF files. Not sure if this worked before, I never tried it. But it seems to be a QuickTime feature that doesn't work on my machine.
Flash 8
iTunes 7.0.0.70
QuickTime Pro 7.1.3
Any suggestiones or explanations?
I really need to export my Flash animations to .MOV format. It's part of my work scheme. Workarounds cause loss of quality.
Thanks,
Dave Ferreira

Recent security issues has had QuickTime 7.1.3 Player set Flash (inside .mov files) to "disabled".
Any user can re-enable Flash inside .mov files by checking a box in the QuickTime Control Panel (PC) or System Preferences (Mac).
QuickTime Player uses a much older version of Flash and only allows those "published" as version 5, or lower, be used.
The security issues are real. The solution for those of us that use Flash (.swf) inside our QuickTime content is more complex.
If a solution isn't reached between Apple and Adobe about a more modern use of Flash inside QuickTime files I plan on adding a text description (on my Web pages) for the steps to re-enable Flash functionality in my QuickTime files that use Flash.

Exporting to .avi or .mov format

How can I export and iMovie to a .avi or .mov format? For use by others with PC's , etc.

both, avi and mov are no formats, just containers, some say wrappers...
in the share/expert settings dialog, you're offerd with zillions of options...
PC users need to install the latest version of QuicktimeForWindows, free for download at apple.com...
avi is little supported on Mac... old school & wrong side of the street..
think about investing into some plug-ins from www.flip4mac.com …
form a users point of view, I collected some info on a website: CODEXX

Hello. How do I get my FCP sequence into DVD Studio Pro? I've tried exporting as QT movie, then importing as asset, am told format is incompatible.

Trying to get my HD sequence in FCP to burn to DVD. How to accomplish this? I export sequence as Quicktime movie, try to import as as asset, after a couple minutes a window says "format incompatible" or something to that effect.
Also, in FCP the canvas only shows timeline video when it's playing. When stopped, blank screen -- how do I fix this?
Many thanks.

#42 - Quick and dirty way to author a DVD
Shane's Stock Answer #42 - David Roth Weiss' Secret Quick and Dirty Way to Author a DVD:
The absolute simplest way to make a DVD using FCP and DVDSP is as follows:
1. Export a QT movie, either a reference file or self contained using current settings.
2. Open DVDSP, select the "graphical" tab and you will see two little monitors, one blue, one green.
3. Select the left blue one and hit delete.
4. Now, select the green one, right click on it amd select the top option "first play".
5. Now drag your QT from the broswer and drop it on top of the green monitor.
6. Now, for a DVD from an HD source, look to the right side and select the "general tab" in the track editor, and see the Display Mode, and select "16:9 pan-scan."
7. Hit the little black and yellow burn icon at the top of the page and put a a DVD in when prompted. DVDSP will encode and burn your new DVD.
THATS ALL!!!
NOW...if you want a GOOD LOOKING DVD, instead of taking your REF movie into DVD SP, instead take it into Compressor and choose the BEST QUALITY ENCODE (2 pass VBR) that matches your show timing. Then take THAT result into DVD SP and follow the rest of the steps. Except you can choose "16:9 LETTERBOX" instead of PAN & SCAN if you want to see the entire image.

Exporting a quicktime file to a .mov format file

I'm having difficulty exporting a quicktime movie file from FCP 4.5 to a .mov file. How long is it supposed to take. The file is only 10 minutes long. It says at 22% done it will take an additional hour... Is this correct? What am I doing wrong? Why is it taking so long?

It all depends ...
Perhaps we can help you if you give us some information.
What are your:
Sequence settings?
Media codec?

Layers of video and audio?
Export settings?
RAM?
Computer model?

Exporting an HD movie to Standard DVD, best format?

I've been editing for awhile but just made the switch to an HD camera (Canon XH A1). I imported footage (as HD footage) and edited it in FCP, now I wonder how I should export it. I did it using "current settings" and it would only go into DVD Studio Pro as an HD project. It was shot at 24p, what's the best way to export it for standard DVD use? I'm just not sure what settings to use...

How to add chapters to exported Apple TV movies

(The process works with QuickTime 7.4 and Final Cut Express 4.0)
To add chapters to movies exported from FCE using the "Apple TV" preset in the Export menu:
In a text editor, like TextEdit in the Applications folder, type your list of chapters.
Make each item very short (preferably one word but no more than two or three words) and separate each item with a carriage return.
Choose Format/Make Plain Text.
Save the document as plain text.
In QuickTime Player, choose File > Open File, select the text file, and click Open.
Choose File > Export. In the Export pop-up menu, choose "Text to Text." In the Use pop-up menu, choose "Text with Descriptors."
Click Options. In the Text Export Settings dialog, select "Show Text, Descriptors, and Time"; select "Show time relative to start of Movie"; and set fractions of seconds to 1/30.
(The fractions really don't matter, we will change the value later)
Click OK, then click Save to create a text file with descriptors.
Open the exported list in your text editor, and open the target movie (formatted for Apple TV) in QuickTime Player.
Choose Window > Show Movie Inspector.
In QuickTime Player, drag the playhead on the timeline to find the first point in the movie where you want to begin a new chapter.
Use the Right and Left Arrow keys to step forward or backward a frame at a time as needed. Note the current time in the Inspector window.
In the text file, find the timeScale attribute and change to 24.46.
Next, find the first chapter title and change the timestamp just before that chapter title to the time you noted in the Inspector window.
Example: For a chapter called "one" that starts at 4 seconds, 21 frames into the movie, you would revise the text to look like this:
(00:00:04.21)
*{textBox: 0, 0, 50, 160}one*
Ignore the textBox attribute.
Repeat steps until you've identified all the places in the movie that correspond to the chapter divisions and you've entered the proper timestamps in the text file.
Change the last timestamp (the one after the last chapter title in the text file) to match the duration of the movie.
Save the text file.
Open the text file in QuickTime Player.
Choose Edit > Select All, choose Edit > Copy.
Click in the target movie, make sure the playhead is at the beginning, choose Edit > "Add to Movie"
QuickTime adds the text track to the movie.
Choose Window > Show Movie Properties.
In the Properties window, select the video or audio track you want to associate with the chapter track, and click Other Settings.
Normally you would choose the main video track.
(alternatively, choose audio track from the Chapters pop-up menu. If you have a movie with alternate subtitle or sound tracks, you can create multiple chapter lists in different languages and set the appropriate subtitle or sound track as the owner of each chapter list. The chapter list will change to match the selected language.)
Select the text track.
Deselect the check box for the text track so that it doesn't display on top of the video.
The new track will still function as a chapter track.
Save the movie as a self-contained movie.
In the Finder, drag the movie to iTunes, and then Sync to Apple TV. The movie will play in Apple TV with Chapters!

Thanks for explaining that in detail Mike.

There is a workaround to move from 1.5 version to the older 1.4 version. But this could be specific to the browser setting the JRE version.
Excerpts from sun docs:
However, a user can still run older versions. To do so, launch the Java Plug-in Control Panel for the older version, then (re)select the browser in the Browser tab.
Example:
Assume you are running on Microsoft Windows with Microsoft Internet Explorer, have first installed version 1.4.2, then version 5.0, and you want to run 1.4.2.
Go to the j2re1.4.2\bin directory where JRE 1.4.2 was installed. On a Windows default installation, this would be here: C:\Program Files\Java\j2re1.4.2\bin
Double-click the jpicpl32.exe file located there. It will launch the control panel for 1.4.2.
Select the Browser tab. Microsoft Internet Explorer might still appear to be set (checked). However, when 5.0 was installed, the registration of the 1.4.2 JRE with Internet Explorer was overwritten by the 5.0 JRE.
If Microsoft Internet Explorer is shown as checked, uncheck it and click Apply. You will see a confirmation dialog stating that browser settings have changed.
Check Microsoft Internet Explorer and click Apply. You should see a confirmation dialog.
Restart the browser. It should now use the 1.4.2 JRE for conventional APPLET tags.
Details are here
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/guide/deployment/deployment-guide/jcp.html
My system (Windows XP) has the version 1.5_09 set as the default. However i just installed JRE 1.5_06 and would like to revert back to _06 as the default JRE..
Will update if i find more information

Converting dvd vidoes into a .mov format

If I convert my DVD videos into .mov format files for the web, will the Quicktime player or plug in be the only available player to open these files. Basically what I am asking is does everyone have to have the Quicktime player or plugin available to open these files?

.mov is a container file form, not a compression type. You can use any one of dozens of compressors for a .mov file. Widely used are mpeg-4 and Sorenson 3. Those will both play in QT 6. H264 is also being used a lot but it requires QT 7 to be installed.
By the way, the QT mpeg2playbackcomponent will not export mpeg-2 format. It is playback only. Also, note that QT will not export sound from muxed files like mpeg-1 or mpeg-2. This freeware will export to various formats with the sound included. Note that there are both Windows XP and Mac versions of this freeware. Mpeg StreamClip
