Failed to export AVI for iPhone (9459)

I have been unable to successfully export an AVI file in iPhone format. Each time I get the message "Failed: qtKitErrorCatchAll (-9459)". Can anyone tell me what this message means? Are these errors documented anywhere?
Thanks

Ideal iMovie export settings for iPhone?

What is the proper setting for iMovie exports to the iPhone?
Obviously 480x320 is the desired target resolution, but I tried using "Quicktime" and encoding in h.264, but the video is not viewable on the iPhone. Alternatively, in selecting MPEG4, oddly h.264 was greyed out as not an option.
Anyone? I know the "iPod" settings work, but that is not the ideal iPhone screen resolution.

I had the same problem getting iMovies over to my AppleTV and found a solution that works for iPhone too.
In iMovie click: Share>Share...>Quicktime (at top of box)>Expert Settings (under Compress Movie For)>Share (button at bottom of box)>Movie to iPhone (on Export: pick list). Click Save at the bottom of the dialog and you're off!
I used this to convert several of the movies I had on my AppleTV and put them on my iPhone.

Custom Quicktime pro export settings for iPhone

I want to custom export from Quicktime Pro, using h.264 in an mpeg4 container with a low data rate (about 400kb) and smaller size (400x220)
It imports into iTunes fine, but won't sync to my iPhone (error message: 'xxx' was not copied to the iPhone 'xxx' because it cannot be played on this iPhone.)
I've tried the Quicktime Pro preset called 'movie to iPhone', and it works fine: the movie copies to my iPhone. The filesize though, is far bigger than I know I can get it down to with custom settings.
I just can't get it to load onto my iPhone.
What am I missing?

You've got Tiger and Automator! Learn how to use them help you make some "presets".
http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/automator/
You could also "hack" the .plist files found in the QuickTime Player.app and edit away.
Control-click on the QuickTime Player and choose "Show Package Contents". Inside the resources folder are a number of .plist files for presets. If you have the Developer Tools installed a double click on a .plist should open the Property List Editor. Change the settings to your liking, but beware.
I use Automator as either a "workflow" on a stand alone "application". Workflows can be triggered by a control click on a file where the "apps" act like AppleScript "Droplets". Drag a file to the droplet and let the application do its thing.
QuickTime Pro stores the "Most Recently Used" settings for many exports. These would be easy to re-construct or edit to allow you to create dozens of different "presets". Save each as an application (naming them may be troublesome) using Automator.

What export settings for iPhone to TV

If TV of any size is the final destination of the movie, but it will be
played from the iPhone, which settings do I use?

Replying to my own post. Here's what I found:
I could export the movie in a size up to iPhone (one step above Tiny on the
Settings Pane). No problem at the iPhone level. This I did with the Project Properties
set at 4 x 3. It played pretty well on the plasma with the TV setting up to Wide or Full,
not to Zoom or Super Zoom. By this point, there's no guessing, setting is done on the fly.
Viewing from 15 or so feet away was acceptable, although the resolution is far from HD.
Still, for a family album, with a soundtrack it went over very well.
Good luck with your project.

Every movie purchase through iTunes fails to transfer to my iPhone or iPad and the message I get is this: some of the items in the itunes library, including were not copied to the ipad because you are not authorized for them on this computer... help?

For a couple months now, every movie purchase through iTunes fails to transfer to my iPhone or iPad giving me the error: "some of the items in the iTunes library, including were not copied to the iPad because you are not authorized for them on this computer". I have read many forums about deleting, reinstalling, de-authorizing and authorizing my iMac through the iTunes store. Many suggestions don't work except to rename the movie to *.MP4 in Finder under the iTunes movie directory. I imagine this is a setting or a bug somewhere... any suggestions on how to bypass having to rename the files in Finder? My research into Google suggests this problem dates back to 2007 or so but it is now more prevalent than ever.
Thanks.

FCP 5 export to .AVI for Windows client? Advice needed!

I have a Windows platform client that wants my Exported FCP 5 Sequence in .AVI format.
Obviously, I normally always use Export to Quicktime Movie in FCP, and I do know that their is not a direct choice in FCP to export/convert as an .AVI file. (I usually hand off the FCP file to another facility that does DVD Studio Pro authoring work, and haven't had a need to make different file formats).
This has made me to ponder of few bits of info, that I'm sure I could get great ansers to, here.
My normal "workaround" for making an .AVI for a Windows user is to Export as Quicktime Movie in FCP, like normal, and then open that exported file in Quicktime Pro, and use Export Movie to AVI in Quicktime Pro. Is this the best method? Secondly, I am a little unsure as to the best settings I should use in QT Pro to achieve this. For example:
I just did a routine NTSC 48k,16 bit stereo, 30 second ad in FCP, and my normal, Export to Quicktime Movie was about 260 meg in size for the finished, self-contained movie file.
I opened this in QT-Pro and ran Export to AVI. In the settings dialog, I chose "uncompressed" for video and 48k-16 bit stereo for audio. The resulting export was about 680 meg in size! Because of file size restrictions for the clients product, what settings change or choice should I be making in QT-Pro to get an "equivalent" of the 260 meg file the FCP is exporting? Should I not get an equal file size of the QT-Pro AVI versus the FCP export (both 260 meg?).
If the answer is compression, what is the best settings in QT-Pro? Cinepak? Intel Indeo?
Perhaps, I have always misunderstood what FCP Export to Movie is giving me, but I thought that was uncompressed video? If so, why do I get the 260 meg out of FCP, and then 680 meg from QT-Pro Export to AVI (uncompressed) for the same 30 second clip? Is it simply a data rate difference?
Lastly, I have actually had a Windows user take a FCP Export to Movie file, straight from me, and they say it opened fine in Windows Media Player as is for viewing. However, there is no (dot) file extension name on the end of the filename. They can simply click File/Open in Windows Media Player and choose the "unrecognized" file because of no extension, and play it just fine to at least view the clip.
So what exactly is the file type that FCP is creating? It's not a .MOV and not an AVI file. What would be the equivalent file type association (just for my curiosity).
Thanks for any help to the above as I value the more-experienced users here.
Wade

Hi Wade,
Sorry for letting your post unanswered for two days, we were all busy (I know, it is not an excuse).
Seriously, I think the reason you are not getting answers is you have asked too many questions in one post. Don't know about others, but I get slightly confused.
Let me tell you what I do with FCP material when I send it to our sound department where they work with Nuendo on PCs. I export sequence using QT Conversion. My settings are: Format - AVI, Compression type - DV-PAL, Compressor quality - Best. I do not bother much about the sound. I sent the resulting file over network to a Maxtor FireWire external drive connected to a colleague's PC and then take the drive down to the sound guys. If the AVI file is smaller than 2 GB I can burn it to a DVD and a PC can open it, if it is larger, PCs cannot open. Also, the sound guys ask me not to use Cinepac, they do not like it. Therefore, I use DV-PAL; I guess you may safely use DV-NTSC but it depends on who will open the AVI file. Ask your client what it wants.
I think my routine is a bit more streamlined than yours - I export straight from FCP and do not bother with QT. You are wrong in saying that there is no direct way in FCP to export AVI.
Hope this is a starter for more answers. Also, have you tried searching the forum? I am sure all the answers are already there.

Export for iPhone & iPad same time - Without resolution issues?

Hello,
I have developed an app for the iPhone and it runs perfectly fine on the iOS for iPhone. I am trying to port it to the iPad so I have done the proper stage adjustments and have set export as "iPhone & iPad"
It opens up fine on my iPad, but the same app opens distorted on my iPhone (since the stage resolution isn't native, so it gets squished)
How can I make my app iPhone/iPad friendly all in one IPA?
Thanks.

Use the same iphone version without any change on the stage and publish it for Iphone/Ipad with full screen parameter.

OSX Lion and exporting for iPhone

There was a thread about how when trying to set and/or publish for iPhone or edit its settings, Flash CS5 immediately crashes. The problem has been experienced by many Mac OSX Lion users and they talked about it in this unresolved thread: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/888198#3851750 but still no updates from Adobe. Adobe sent me a response to my Support ticket that "it's an Actionscript 3 coding issue" then closed it so I couldn't reply. Ummmm, NO it isn't a coding issue, I tried to export an FLA file with no code in it. That's a really bad way to do business, Adobe. But since they're not going to be helpful (and probably lose me as a customer) has anyone else found a workaround for this?

Why is this the case?
You have to understand that the Apple-provided presets are good launching points, not end-all, be-all settings.
And iPhones do support material encoded as 640 pixels wide so the preset for VGA (up to 640x480) works fine for most people. I personally rarely use anything smaller than the VGA setting for Apple Devices as I find that's the perfect middle ground for iPods, iPhones and AppleTV.
If you (understandably) need to limit your file and frame sizes, adjusting the device setting in Compressor to iPhone (Local/WiFi) does the trick - fitting your movie into a 480 pixel-wide frame size and capping the video data rate at 1000 Kbps.
Letterboxing - as in hard mattes - is not needed when encoding for Apple Devices. In fact, if you have letterboxing in your source media, use the Geometry pane to crop out the Letterbox Area of Source. That will provide you with a better quality encode and the preset will know to adjust your output frame size, so you need not worry about distorting your movie.

Exporting for iphone

I want to export material from FCP to compressor for use on iphone.
The aspect ratio of the iphone screen is 480 x 320, but that size is not an option when exporting for iPhone using Compressor. You have to use a custom setting.
Why is this the case?
Compressor offers 320 x 240 and 640 x 480. Both of these are fine for an older ipod, but not for the wider screen of an ipod touch or iphone.
Do they want us to letterbox a 3:2 image on iPhones and iPod Touch?
Thanks for any help

IMovie for IOS Cannot export 60p despite iPhone 6 capability to shoot 60p

Hi,
iMovie for IOS Cannot export 60p despite iPhone 6 capability to shoot 60p
I am obliged to use Pinnacle Studio for IOS 8
I have bought a superb iPhone 6 Plus, shooting in 1080/60p, I cannot edit my clips to build a 60p Master.
I understand the choice for shared video streams to use 720/30p 5Kb/s from my 1080/60p 25Kbps clips as it has to be streamed even on small PC.
But if I want a master file 1080/60p at 25Kbps, and send it by mail with the superb new Cloud Mail to my mac mates, I cannot do it
I need a master hacker to poke this 60 number I nee somewhere into iMovie, it should be somewhere in the compressor frameworks used by iMovie in the app Package for exporting.
SAME PROBLEM WITH I MOVIE 10.0.6 FOR OSX YOSEMITE,
Best regards to the community

I appreciate you taking the time to copy and paste boilerplate responses to increase your points in this forum, but I've already read all those support articles in depth; but you have barely read my post at all. Please don't guess a fix. Only someone with the latest versions of iMovie, iOS, iPhone, Yosemite, and MacBook Pro is qualified to troubleshoot this, because anyone would immediately see that the following option no longer exists:
Open iMovie on your Mac, and choose File > Import > iMovie for iOS Project.
Read my post before you reply: It clearly says in the title and within my post that I can neither export nor import through iTunes without receiving an error message. So your response neither solved my question nor helped me whatsoever.

Export for iPhone with crop?

I did searchs for iPhone AND crop and iPod AND crop, but nothing came up, so...
Is it possible to use QT to export to iPhone with a custom crop? I'm starting with 1280x720 HD video from a Flip MinoHD. I would like to end up with something in a 3:2 ratio like 480x320 (either cropped to 1080x720 and then scaled or scaled then cropped to 3:2).
I can do this crop if I export to MPEG-4 and it works great. This export option, however, comes out as mp4, instead of m4v and doesn't work on the iPhone.
Any way to do this QT?
How about QT Pro?
Thanks!

Do you have any idea if I'm doing something wrong? Here's an excerpt from my email to the author (I didn't mention cropping as to simplify my question/bug report)
Since you did not describe your actual "crop" work flow for MPEG Stramclip I suspect that is where your problem lies. Basically you are going from a 1.78:1 to a 1.50:1 aspect ration. Therefore your will have to crop the left-right edges and not the top-bottom. Since you indicate want to end up with a 480x320 viewing area, try the following:
1) Select either of the iPhone presets. Since you will have to customize the dimensions, as well as, crop the file, it doesn't matter which preset you choose.
2) Back in the main MPEG-4 export window, re-set the "Other" dimensions to 569x320. What you are in effect doing is setting the target height of the output you want and adjusting the width to the nearest pixel for a 16:9 aspect ratio to match your source file and, thus, minimize any distortion.
3) Set output audio and/or video rates as desired (I normally use 1000 or 1200 Kbps for video and 128 Kbps @ 44.1 KHz for audio) and make any adjustments to brightness, contrast, saturation, volumes, etc. if desired.
4) Now activate the "Cropping" tool by "ticking" the correct box and leave the option in the "Destination" mode.
5) Now enter your left-right crop settings. These setting must total 89 pixels to be subtracted from the 569 scaled pixel width which will leave you with your specified 480x320 viewing area. How much you decide to crop from the left and right sides is up to you but must total 89 pixels. Thus you can keep the center area or chose to offset the viewing area as best suits your needs.
6) Now preview the content to be sure it is exactly what you want and if/when satisfied, select the "Make MP4" button to set up and begin your export.

Well, first off, you are not addressing Apple here. This is a user to user PUBLIC forum. You should not post your personal information like that. Try closing iTunes, reboot the computer and connect again. Are you using the latest version of iTunes, v11.1?

Random selections of mp4 videos won't sync, convert for iPhone option in iTunes comes up with unknown error 2002, help please!

I've been having massive issues copying mp4 video files onto my iPhone 4 from my windows 7 (64 bit) pc.
I converted a large number of avi files into mp4 using aiseesoft movie converter and most of them work just fine.
However about a quarter of the files with no Obvious difference in size and converted the same way will not sync.
Instead a message appears saying these cannot be played on the iPhone.
Also when then trying to use the iTunes convert for iPhone function It fails for unknown error 2002.
Any help on why this is happening and how to stop it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

When the videos are in the Movie library, try using the Create IPod and iPhone Version in the Afvanced tab of iTunes.
