FCP Quicktime Codec for Windows

I have an HD sequence that I exported using Export to Quicktime (movie is self contained); This gives me a .mov file that is uncompressed and has a smaller file size than any other way I export. I tried to play the file at my friends house on his PC but we couldn't. I'm assuming this export method uses a specific codec that my friend doesn't have. If this is the case, do you know if or where he could DL the specific codec. I googled it, but to no avail. If I'm completely off base with the whole codec thing could someone please point me in the right direction? Thanks

Happy to help out, but you need to identify what cam or sequence settings you use to create the HD sequence.
HD means so many things, including HDV and DVCProHD.
What is it?
And what did you choose to export to that create a smaller movie file for use on the PC?
Because it seems you have converted the original footage to something else, otherwise the size would be the same.
You might try an export to h.264 that should work if your friend is using v.7 of QT on Windows.

  • Quicktime Pro for Windows

    I bought Quicktime Pro for windows because of the beautiful advertisement. It had to be possible to convert every video into every format possible.
    I tried to convert several mpg en mov files (from Sony camera) into mp4 and 3GP. Playing of these mpg and mov- files in QT is not a problem, even with audio. So it doesn't seem a codec problem. But after exporting these files into other format, there is no audio anymore.
    If I change a mov or mpg file and save it in the same file-format, audio is not corrupted.
    What is it that I do wrong?

    QT does not export sound from muxed mpeg files: QT Mpeg Limitations. This freeware should do the trick: Mpeg StreamClip
    If the mpegs in question are mpeg-2 you will need to buy the mpeg2playbackcomponent from Apple ($20 US). Note that these programs will not work with encrypted Hollywood movies.

  • Uninstalling Quicktime Preview for Windows

    Hi. I bought an iPod some days ago and was gonna install iTunes. As the installation proceeded right at the end this shows up:
    "This installer cannot upgrade the Preview of Quicktime 7 for Windows. You must first remove it." or something like that as I am Swedish.
    I have uninstalled everything I could that had something with Quicktime to do, I have cleaned the registry and also searched for 'Quicktime' and removed everything there.
    Though still I cannot install either iTunes or QuickTime.
    Appreciate answers.

    QuickTime for windows error -2048 has been consistant for many moons. With not opening file formats that are not supported. Unlikely caused by a battery or camera...

  • QuickTime SDK for Windows for Rez.exe

    YAHSHUA YHWH GOD BLESS you, Where can i download QuickTime SDK for Windows so i can get the Rez.exe resource editor?

    Hello again
    We figured out a way to access the texture, which made it possible for us to do a simple deinterlace by removing every second line of the output.
    By converting to a surface we where able to copy data to a new surface which we could lock...
    Probably not the fastest most elegant way - but it seems to work alright

    Sorry, you (he) have to buy a separate license for QT Pro for Mac.

  • HDV Quicktime Codec for PC

    Hi
    I am in the middle of editing a project on FCP 5 and need to export part of it to a PC.
    The footage is HDV 1080 50i and for speed I would prefer to keep it that way.
    I'm having trouble finding the Quicktime codec to allow the footage to be palyed back on the PC, can anyone tell me where to find this???
    Thanks
    Ajay

    I think you're talking about exporting to wmv. Flip4Mac Studio Pro HD is a good start. If you want better than that, check out Episode.

  • The Most FCP-Friendly Codec for Offline Editing of Clips w/ Alpha Channels

    Working with full-quality DigitalJuice animated backgrounds with alpha channels in a DV timeline can feel like swimming through molasses. There are a number of options for temporarily replacing the clips with low-res proxies (Uncompressed, JPEG2000, TGA, etc.). Before conducting extensive tests, I was curious as to whether or not anyone has an opinion on which 32-bit codec might be the easiest one for FCP to process, resulting in snappier playback while offlining.
    Thanks,
    Zap

    no, at least not last time I looked.
    the avid meridian codecs for QT are downloadable from their website
    http://www.avid.com/content/7952/Avid%20CodecsLE120Macpkg.zip
    sme tips quoted from http://dvinfo.net/conf/archive/index.php/t-78006.html
    it is important to move these components out of the root Library and put them into the User Library. That way they won't cause any conflict during startup.
    I've since done some trial and error testing and it appears the only component that causes a conflict during startup is AvidAVUICodec.component.
    The rest work just fine with compressor and seem to add support for:
    Avid 1:1x (AvidAV1xCodec.component)
    Avid D100 (AvidAVd1Codec.component)
    Avid DNxHD (AvidAVdnCodec.component)
    Avid DV (AvidAVdvCodec.component)
    Avid Packed (AvidAVpkCodec.component)
    Avid Meridian (AvidAVDJCodec.component)
    The original AvidAVUICodec.component was part of the Meridian codecs paired with AvidAVDJCodec.component for ABVB systems, but it doesn't seem to be required anymore. Very odd.
    Now, what works with FCP 5.1.2????
    Everything except Avid D100 codec (AvidAVd1Codec.component) and the AvidAVUICodec.component.
    So, if want to use Avid codecs with FCP 5.1.2, just install them, trash AvidAVd1Codec.component and AvidAVUICodec.component, then move the remaining components from Macintosh HD/Library/Quicktime to Users/User name/Library/Quicktime.
    ymmv

  • Quicktime Codecs in Windows

    Why are some codecs available for Mac OS 9 and Mac OS X not available for windows(System 7 sound,Apple Pixlet and PDF Files)in Quicktime Pro?

    Hundreds of codecs are "platform specific" and there is no getting around the issue.
    Pixlet is only found on Mac OS X.
    Not many write (anymore) to System 7 audio. Most use more modern audio codecs that do enjoy support across more modern OS's.

  • Preparing my FCP Quicktime movie for iDVD

    How did you export the movie in the first place? Did you choose Quicktime Movie or Quicktime Conversion?

  • How do I prepare a FCP Quicktime movie for iDVD?

    Hi out there, can someone please explaine in detail what I have to do to a FCP Quicktime movie to prepare it for iDVD. Its 12 minutes long and 4.8GB. I tried putting it as is into iDVD and burning a DVD and the quality was bad. Do I have to put it through Compressor? Or, should I make a different kind of Quicktime movie?

    Compressor is a program and you want to use it to convert your movie into an mpeg file and an ac3 file. 2 files to drop into your DVD program. Now, I haven't used iDVD so i don't know what it's asking for but. DVDSP is really easy to use if you just wan tto make a DVD without a menu. this requires an mpeg2 file and ac3. this you can make in compressor. in FCP have your timeline with your sequence in it active. FILE>EXPORT>USING COMPRESSOR. in compressor you can use the DVD 90 minute setting to make these two files. you have to check the manual cause it's different on how to do this with diff versions.
    once you have your files drop them in DVD SP asset box then drag them in the timeline. delete the menue blue box right click the green track box, select 'first play' build/burn button at the top and you're on your way.
    sorry if this seems confusing, but dvd technology is funky. idvd is great for making easy template menus but if you want to just make a playable dvd wihtout menus, DVD SP is the way to go.
