Flash CC exports to an empty .MOV file

I created an animation in Flash CC that I would now like to export to .MOV. I have tried different combinations of settings but the result .MOV file that is created is "empty." I tried opening the file a few different ways in different programs, quicktime, premiere, after effects. but it gives the same message that the file doesn't contain anything.
I have tried exporting it with and without the Adobe Media Encoder, without it gives me an empty file and with it gives me the message that the .MOV file could not be imported into the Media Encoder.
I am looking for a way to make the Flash file, or SWF file into a .MOV.
I also tried to import the swf into After Effects but it appeared to have lost some of the crispness and became a bit blurry.
Thanks for any help you have to offer.

I can export the Flash movie as mov, all the frames are correctly exported.
Could you please give the below information?
1. Which version of Adobe Media encoder is launching when invoke media encoder from Flash CC. You can invoke the Adobe Media encoder File > import > video > Press "launch media encoder” button in select video dialog
2. Which are the Adobe software’s installed in your system (Video software’s ...... after effects premiere etc...)
3 Create one small motion tween in timeline and export as movie > Check whether the movie is exported correctly
4. Flash version number, Help > About Flash
It would be great if you can share the files.

How do i export multiple full resolution movie files at the same time in final cut pro 6?

I've been using Final Cut Pro since version 3 came out, know the program well, have even had jobs consisting of just operating the program. I'm currently running version 6 because that's the latest one that works on my computer. Back in verison 3, there used to be an option under Export to export a "Final Cut Pro" movie, which was really a Quicktime movie but appeared with a FCP icon and defaulted to opening in FCP, but the important thing about it is that it was a full resolution copy of the movie with no compression. Now, that option seems to have been changed to "export Quicktime movie." In my opinion that change is kind of stupid since it is so much less specific and is even less of an implication that one is exporting a full resolution file. But in fact you are.
One also has the option of using Compressor to export a version of a movie, and therein there are so many different options that if you are not confused by it I think there's something wrong with you. Moreover, it would appear that there is no equivalent of exporting a full resolution version of a file in Compressor. Fair enough: a full-resolution file involves no compression so is not appropriate for "Compressor." BUT, suppose you want to export multiple uncompressed, full-resolution movies at once. When you use Compressor, you are able to create batch lists and export many things at the same time, for instance, lists that will take many hours to complete so you can go to bed and get the results the next day. But as far as I can tell there is no way to do this at full resolution without compression. Instead you have to sit at the computer waiting for each one to finish and after each one, manually go to the next and select "export Quicktime movie." Even if there is a way to do this I would complain that such an obviously desireable thing is so unaccessable. In fact, the only reason I've typed out my question at such length is because I'm stuck here waiting for each one of my movies to export.
Anyway, all my complaints aside, anyone know how to do this?

what you're missing to export multiple files is the batch export command available in the file menu or by control clicking on the items in the browser. You can export multiple sequences/clips at full resolution with this.
This has been available in fcp for a long long time.
Wow, you are right. Now that you mention it, I can't believe I never noticed that. Thanks.
Only if you have the 'Self-Contained' box checked. Otherwise you'll end up with a reference movie.
Correct. That box is typically checked by default. There are other default settings you could change that would not result in a full-quality version, but what I meant was hitting that option from the pull-down menu, then changing nothing and hitting ok.

What export options in Quicktime Pro or Final Cut Pro should I select to export HDV video in .MOV files to highest quality Windows-compatible files?

I have some HDV video files imported through iMovie to .MOV files with Apple Intermediate Codec.
I need to convert these to Windows compatible video files of the highest possible ( least loss) quality. What export options in Final Cut Pro or in Quicktime Pro should I select? The codex in the converted files must not be Apple Intermediate Codec, for which there is no Windows version.

Okay, I read the whole Flip4Mac website.
Flip4Mac is an application for Apple computers.
Perhaps my question was unclear. When I posed it I was thinking of asking somebody with an Apple shop to do the conversion for me, and wanted advice on settings for his QUicktime Pro /Final Cut Pro that would produce the highest quality Windows -compatible files.
The Windows version of Quicktime will not play Quicktime files with Apple Intermediate Codec. You get black screen video, although the audio does come through.
So here's what I need: I need a Windows application that will transcode Quicktime files in Apple Intermediate Codec, with no loss or very little loss, to WIndows-compatible files. All Windows, all the time. Thank you.

Exporting from .mpeg to .mov file loses sound

Okays so I know that there are numerous forum discussions out there on this topic but none helped me figure out my problem so I decided to create my own.
I'm trying to take a xxx.mpeg file and convert it to a smaller xxx_web.mov file that I can use for posting on the web and sending to friends easily over ichat. To get my mpeg file I:
1. used mac-the-ripper to get the Video_TS folder from a DVD with now encryption.
2. then I took that .VOB file from that and drug it into MPEG Streamclip to convert the .VOB file to an xxx.mpeg.
All is well up till this point and xxx.mpeg plays fine with sound. Next I tried to use quicktime pro to export my xxx.mpeg file to xxx_web.mov. This gave me video with now sound
Then I read about mpegs being muxed and I needed to demux them. So I used MPEG Streamclip to demux xxx.mpeg with the following option from MPEG Streamclip:
DEMUX to M2V and AIFF.
This worked succussfully as well with the M2V file playing normally in quicktime with sound. I then tried to export the M2V file to a .mov file and got the same outcome...video but no sound.
Can someone walk me through what I'm doing wrong? Also I just started using MPEG Streamclip can it do everything i'm trying to do (meaning can I bypass using quicktime pro)?
Thank you.

1. used mac-the-ripper to get the Video_TS folder from a DVD with now encryption.
If the source DVD is not encrypted, then the VIDEO_TS folder or desired non-zero title VOB series can be copied directly to your hard drive without the use of MTR.
2. then I took that .VOB file from that and drug it into MPEG Streamclip to convert the .VOB file to an xxx.mpeg... I'm trying to take a xxx.mpeg file and convert it to a smaller xxx_web.mov file that I can use for posting on the web and sending to friends easily over ichat.
If you goal is to create a small, web compatible file, you should convert to your final target compression format while in MPEG Streamclip. Most Apple applications use the H.264/AAC compression format for posting to web sites since it generally produces the smallest file for a given level of quality. For instance, selecting the "Export to MPEG-4..." option in MPEG Streamclip, pressing the "iTunes" button, and then selecting an appropriate size/aspect combination will automatically load user settings to create your final file. The 640x480 or 640x360 iTunes option will produce a file similar to the iTunes option in QT Pro (or iTunes) but will also retain your audio.
All is well up till this point and xxx.mpeg plays fine with sound. Next I tried to use quicktime pro to export my xxx.mpeg file to xxx_web.mov. This gave me video with now sound
QT Pro does not fully support multiplexed MPEG compression formats. An MPEG (MPEG2/MP2) compression format will play in the QT player with the QT MPEG-2 Playback component installed but cannot be edited or converted and retain the audio. To retain the audio, you must use a third-party, MPEG-based conversion application like MPEG Streamclip.
Then I read about mpegs being muxed and I needed to demux them. So I used MPEG Streamclip to demux xxx.mpeg with the following option from MPEG Streamclip:
DEMUX to M2V and AIFF.
This work flow creates two elementary stream files. Both the M2V (with MPEG-2 component installed) and the AIFF file are QT Pro compatible. However, they must always be stored together on your hard drive. Since the M2V video file "resources" the AIFF audio in a separate file, if the files are separated, this reference will be orphaned and, as you have seen, you again end up losing your audio.
I just started using MPEG Streamclip can it do everything i'm trying to do (meaning can I bypass using quicktime pro)?... Can someone walk me through what I'm doing wrong?
Already covered. (See above.)
If I export to any format (QuickTime movie, AVI, Windows Media, MPEG-4), all of the audio options are greyed out. Some say explicitly that there is no audio in the source movie. If I go ahead, I get a file with no audio.
The "Save" and "Save As..." options do not convert the compression format. They merely take the data (which you already said plays correctly) and places it in an MOV file container where it continues to play correctly. On the other hand, when you attempt to convert the file to other compression formats (i.e., change the data within the container), then you lose the audio. As indicated above, multiplexed formats like MPEG-2 video with MPEG-1 layer 2 audio are playback only compatible with the QT structure. If you wish to convert the data to a different format and retain the audio, use a third-party, MPEG-based application.
QuickTime is obviously able to decode the .m1a audio since it can play it. Why does it seem to not be aware the audio is there if I try to export it?
Because QT is based on a multi-track engine that synchronizes audio and video frames with reference to external clocking. On the other hand, multiplexed content divides the audio and video into interspersed blocks of data synchronized spatially within a single data stream. QT could theoretically create two separate streams of data but has no way of synchronizing any single frame of audio with its video frame counterpart. The MPEG Streamclip engine can do this but requires the QT MPEG-2 Playback component to then bridge the gap between spatial and temporal based playback engines. Without this temporal relationship the QT player would probably return the infamous "Not a movie" message.

How to export a iTunes HD movie file?

I was wondering if it's possible to export a full res HD Quicktime movie as an HD iTunes movie? I know how to export a Quicktime movie to an iTunes movie but don't see an option to export an HD iTunes movie (the 720p quality like when you purchase an HD movie from the iTunes store). I want to be able to watch my 1080p work on Apple TV in the best quality. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks.

I want to be able to watch my 1080p work on Apple TV in the best quality.
The TV device is limited to max of 720p playback. While the TV1 did have an option to scale content for output as 1080i or 1080p, this was discontinued with the TV2 since 1080p native HDTVs will automatically rescale the negotiated input as/if needed for proper viewing. To maintain compatibility with the TV1 device, Apple presets will export 720p content only if the source file is larger than or equal to these dimensions and the frame rate is 25 fps or less. They will not allow you upscale smaller dimension files. Thus, your 1080p source files will be exported as either 720p24 or 540p30 files depending on the source frame rate. If you have an TV2 device and wish to ensure a 720p30 output, then use a free third-party app like MPEG Streamclip or HandBrake. Both have TV2 specific conversion options.

How to export a project in.mov file

Ok Tom, thanks for helping, will this do for TV screen watching ?

How can I export a surround sound movie file using compressor?

I want to create movie files using Motion and Soundtrack Pro that have surround sound. I can make ac3 surround sound files in SOundtrack Pro, I can add them to projects in Final Cut Pro, but I can't see any way to use Compressor to output the movie files with surround sound. The encoding results in plain stereo files. Please help.

HI Tony, you should be able to do this simply within the Compressor.app V4.1.x using the "surround Sound Group" and the shipped setting DOLBY DIGITAL setting. Instead of just adding a file, you need to:
Add a "Surround Sound Group" (control++i or file/add surround sound group or use the "+" plus sign at bottom left corner of Current/BATCH window". You'll get a pane with the channels you need to manipulate.
Click on the tracks Icons L to Rs and select the surround tracks as prompted and navigate through the finder interface. .. simple. WAV, BWF etc
Optionally Add the video object from here too.
Select the BATCH job (top layer with the ORBIT looking icon)) and use the INSPECTOR (right pane) to see what audio objects have been selected and verify location etc.. follow the dialogue (follow your nose)
Then Select the SETTING layer and use the default DOLBY DIGITAL setting and form the "settings/Create Blu Ray/Dolby Digital" and drag it over the batch job setting
Select this and adjust the LOCATION for the target distribution
Select the INSPECTOR AUDIO pane (right pane) and adjust any settings and EFFECTS to your taste.
select the cluster (if one is defined)
+B (submit) the job for the distribution or another master.
This will work fine.. pretty easy.. You'll need to work the audio settings as you like. If you get stuck, use the compressor.app V4.1 help.. its actually good.
Post your results for others to see.

Best settings for exporting and dropping a MOV file into iDVD7?

I have a movie (originally shot in HD), made in iMovieHD6, and that I'd like to export and drop into iDVD7. *What settings would the brain trust recommend?* I cannot seem to get iDVD to render a good version through direct export from iMovie. (As a side, I wonder if it is because I started this process by bringing AVCHD files from my camera into iMovie8 and "going backwards" to iMovieHD6.)

I have used Pro-res from Final Cut Pro into iDVD and it works.
*This is from iDVD help menu:*
Video and image formats that work with iDVD
You can use these movie and graphic formats in iDVD:
◼
Most video or image files supported by QuickTime (see the list of unsupported QuickTime formats below)
◼
16:9 widescreen formats
◼
AAC, MP3, and AIFF audio files
◼
Any format from iMovie: DV, high-definition video (HDV), MPEG-2 SD, MPEG-2 SD, MPEG-4 SD, MPEG-4 HD, and AVCHD
High definition video is converted to work with the format of your project. iDVD supports using 16:9 widescreen video; therefore, when your DVD plays on a DVD player that supports widescreen format, the footage appears in its original aspect ratio.
The following video and image formats are not supported in iDVD:
◼
Copyrighted or protected videos.
◼
Movies saved in thousands of colors using the “none” compression setting in iMovie.
◼
48-bit color images (16 bits per color). To use source files in one of these formats in iDVD, save them in a supported format.
◼
Aurora uncompressed files. For best results, export Aurora clips as DV-format video before importing them into iDVD.
◼
QuickTime VR, MPEG-1 or MPEG-2, Flash, streaming or encrypted movies, or QuickTime spanned movies. You can’t add MPEG-1 or MPEG-2 files to an iDVD project because they don’t contain standard video tracks.
◼
QuickTime Fast Start movies. (Fast Start movies are intended for Internet playback.) When saving a QuickTime movie for use with iDVD, click the Options button in the QuickTime Export dialog and make sure that the “Prepare for Internet Streaming” checkbox is not selected.

What's the best way to export a 1280:720 mov file to high res wmv

Does anyone know the best way to export an HD 1280:720 Quick Time .mov to the highest possible res wmv?

fewer problems. It was a codec issue, I think regarding the latest codec. The solution, and it works for all the apps, was to make the frame divisible by 16 on all sides. It had to do with coding factors. But it worked. Since then, and the introduction of the iPad, we've dropped WMV altogether. We're now relying on Flash and MP4. MP4 is used in most places, particularly promos and marketing content. However, it's not at all easy to protect content from "redistribution" when using HTML5. It has a weakness in which it leaves a data trail that someone can follow back to the original video. Hmmm... so we code in a Flash wrapper, though I think my IT person may be using my MP4s for that. I'll have to check. Anyway, I'm down to mostly MP4 now.

Motion files exporting to all-black .Mov file...

I took a layered .PSD and animated the layers using standard keyframes over a stationary white background layer. I have done many projects like this, and for some reason this one will not export. Keeps showing up as all black... and when i try to play through it, it will not play at the normal speed but plays
1 frame = 1 second... Any thoughts on what the setting could be that i messed up?

These .f4v options are both in fact videos, which you can use in video player / editors directly.
If you want to convert this video to MP4, you can do it with Adobe Media Encoder which is installed free with Captivate 5. Inside the Adobe Media Encoder, you need to select H.264 as the format. The select one of the suitable preset to get MP4 output.

Export through Final Cut Pro of .mov file results in non-viewable file...

Hello,
I recently worked on a film and had asked for a .mov version of the movie so I could get an uncompressed HD version in case I wished to use it for my demo reel (video for actors).
I was present when the director exported it and he exported it from Final Cut Pro (the latest version) and he exported it as a .mov file.
Well, I just tried opening the video and it does not work. In Quicktime, the error message:
"The movie "movie.mov" can't be opened.
You may need to install additional software to open this type of file.
I'm thinking it might be a codec issue.
Do you have any suggestions as to how the movie should be exported so that I avoid this type of error message?
I tried opening the file in iTunes and I got the audio, but the video was black. Another clue that it's a codec issue.
I just need a high quality (as uncompressed as possible) file that I can then add to an editing program and insert into my demo reel. I need the high definition format to be retained.
As for the frame-rate, etc. I'm not sure. It was done with high quality and expensive video equipment and didn't use tape. I know it was high definition and widescreen as well.

Nope, I don't have Final Cut Pro on my system.
I clicked on Get Info and nothing about the codec appears.
"Kind: QuickTime movie"
"Size: 1.99 GB on disc" (it is about 6 minutes long; that I remember)
"Title: movie.mov"
"Last Opened" is the next and last thing that appears.
I tried opening it using VLC and the movie just stops and starts throughout. It plays for just a second and then stops and I have to keep clicking the "Play" button to get it to keep playing.
Actually, just now I tried it again in VLC and it just kept stuttering.
From VLC, I chose Media Information and under Codec Details, the following appeared:
Stream 0:
Type: Video
Codec: MPEG-1/2 Video (xdvd)
Language: English
Resolution: 1920x1080
Frame rate: 23.976000
Stream 1:
Type: Audio
Codec: PCM S16 LE (sowt)
Language: English
Channels: Stereo
Sample Rate: 48000 Hz
Bits per sample: 16
Should I ask that the movie be re-exported using the ProRes codec???

How do i export a sequence to an uncompressed quicktime .mov file?

hello everyone.
I have a little problem.
I have a 20 secs sequence that needs to be exported from my FCP 6.0.3 to UNCOMPRESSED quicktime .mov file. Its HDV footage.
These are the steps I've taken.
I go to FILE>EXPORT>QUICK TIME MOVIE. I have all the settings to current setting, and I have checked the "Make Movie Self-Contained" option.
When I'm done exporting, I get a .mov file, but its a Final Cut Pro file, not a quicktime file.
This means I can't open in a PC, where I have to do some compositing.
I would really appreciate if anyone can give me some advise or tips on how to get my export .mov file to be a quicktime file uncompressed .
Thanks
-r

The Uncompressed 4:2:2 codecs only come with Final Cut Pro. Two ways:
1) In FCP, go to File > Export > QuickTime Conversion. Set format to QuickTime Movie and click Options. Go to Settings under Video and set Compression Type to None. Put all the sliders at maximum. Click Ok, deselect Prepare for Internet Streaming and click Ok. Export the file.
2) This is the one I personally prefer, as it will be compatible with any system, even if they don't have QuickTime. Go to File > Export > QuickTime Conversion. Under Format, select Image Sequence. Go to Options, set Format to TIFF and enter the FPS. Click Export and you will have a series of sequentially-numbered images that most compositing apps will treat like one big movie clip.

2 probs. No controls available 4 Keynote exported mov files, can't combine

I have 2 problems. I created several .mov files using Keynote 08 via the export function in Keynote. I am able to open and play these files in QT Pro however I cannot view the control bar with the Play, FF, RW, etc buttons that you get when you click on File>New Player. Does it have anything to do with the fact that the mov files were created in Keynote? I cannot imagine that this would be the problem.
The other problem is that the only reason I have multiple mov files that were created in Keynote was due to the fact that it was the only way I could get the audio to be in sync with my slides, and this was the suggestion of Apple Tech Support. So, I created 8 different Key files, exported them all to mov files and now want to combine them using QT Pro (or I would use iMovie if it would let me).
Can anyone help me with these issues? Thanks in advance.
Craig

I am trying to use the controls in Quicktime that you are telling me are disabled since I exported from Keynote. Perhaps if I explain the motivation, you may be able to better understand what I am trying to accomplish. I have 8 mov files I created in Keynote. The reason I spit them to 8 was based on a recommendation from an Apple Tech Support guy. My audio was not syncing up with my slides and he explained that it was due to system resources not being sufficient (RAM) and that by splitting them, I could export them to Quicktime and put them back together in Quicktime. So, I am trying to put them together into 1 file that I can make into a podcast. So, when I tried to merge them together in Quicktime, since I had no controls, I couldn't figure out how to place the 8 mov files in the correct order.
Hopefully this will make some sense to you and you will be able to offer some advice.
Thanks again!

How to export as a movie file

Hello- I am a teacher and make a dvd for my kids with all of their pictures and videos on it at the end of the year. As I was taught in the apple store, I made the video in imovie and then added the music in garageband. Today I started this project, and garageband no longer has "export movie" as a choice, only music choices. Is there any way to still export this as a movie file? I believe it was a quicktime .mov file. Any help would be appreciated.

Today I started this project, and garageband no longer has "export movie" as a choice,
Are you now using GarageBand 10.0?
Then import the movie,
Track menu > Show Movie Track
File menu > Movie > Open Movie
Mix the sound track song
Then use the "File" menu > Movie > Export Audio to Movie.
This will write the audio aa an audio track into the imported movie.

Having Trouble Exporting .mov files

Hi, I've been trying to export a lossless quality .mov file of a presentation I shot a couple weeks ago. It's about 3.5 hours long and is being an absolute pain. It takes over 8 hours for it to export the quicktime animation file, and then it ends up being around 250gb which is way way wayy to big! The files I put into the timeline only add up to 21 gb, why is it doing this? Even when I used an h.264 codec, the file is still around 100gb and it took 12 hours to encode!! Can somebody please help me with this? I need to get this footage to the company I shot for. Thanks!

this?
Losslessly compressed files are huge. That is an unavoidable fact. 250GB is an unsurprsing size for a 3-hour movie that is losslessly compressed. The fact that your input files were 21GB has nothing to do with it. Those files were heavily compressed.
What is your client asking from you? It seems unlikely that they're asking for losslessly compressed file for delivery. Are they asking for something for playback? What are their delivery specifications?
