Flash in Quicktime Pro

I have quicktime pro. Is there any way to get it to convert videos to .flv without buying Adobe Flash? If I download the Flash trial, will the capability to convert videos to flash stay with me?

To make a flvs from Quicktime. You need Quicktime Pro to be able to do this conversion.
Make a h.264 .mov in Quicktime Pro. Select the h.264 .mov in the Finder. Change the .mov extension to .flv...done.

  • Exporting to Flash using Quicktime pro

    I'm trying to export a 43 min vid from FCP6 using quicktime conversion. I want to export to Flash. Its for web content, and its in widescreen.
    Any help with size and converting to flash would help. I've never done web content before.
    Thanks!!

    First, some questions: 1) what's the purpose? 2) who's your intended audience? 3) has it got to be done quickly, as in a short deadline? 4) Why Flash? 5) Why 43 minutes (have you ever in your life watched a 43 minute streaming video on the internet on anything but the most powerful 'puter with the highest-speed, dedicated internet connection)? 6) Do you care that what people see you throw up on the internet ultimately reflects on how you yourself are perceived by those same people?
    For what could be a quick disaster, or if this project is mainly for sh*ts and giggles, follow the advice given in the first reply, post it pronto and don't bother with the rest of THIS reply.
    Or, if you're on a deadline, pay someone who TRULY knows what they're doing to do it for you -- and they might still balk (if they have any scruples) at a 43 minute web video unless you've got a really good reason to make folks wait for way longer than 43 minutes of stop-and-start Flash stuff.
    Otherwise, if you're not in a hurry:
    FIRST, procure a book on the subject, like Apple's "QuickTime for the Web" (available on line and at Borders, for sure).
    THEN, with some reading under your belt, be prepared to start experimenting with combinations of smaller movie dimensions and FPS rates (generally, half of what the original is); then on to varying types of video compression (Sorenson or Sorenson3 have historically given some of the best results, with H.264, the newest and more difficult to configure giving the truest quality, but not discounting the various MPEG settings; and last, but certainly not least, playing with your audio compressions to see what you're willing to lose in order to (hopefully) gain an internet audience. Like it or not, it depends on YOUR vid's content and audio as to how to make it small enough to be seen in its best internet presence.
    OR, You might try some of Compressor's export settings -- and be totally satisfied. It's all relative to the work you've created and how long you're willing to work at what you're willing to sacrifice to still pull off a good illusion of your original video at a fraction of its original size.
    I wish it weren't so, but there's no quick and easy answer to your question if you're serious at all about the end result. You have to consider all the angles I've posed (and then some) to get good results that'll show YOU in your best light.

  • Flash MX 2004 Pro & QuickTime Pro 7

    Iam using Flash MX 2004 Pro and there is a feature that when
    I want to publish a movie it says I can export a movie in
    quicktime. I tried it and I get the following error. "Flash MX - An

    found." I have QuickTime Pro 7 and do not understand this error.
    What am I missing.

    I have Quicktime Pro, I need to export video as a flash file. Is that possible?

    You can use FFmpeg to do this.

  • Flash 9 Flip4mac conflict with Quicktime Pro

    Any one have this fun? I can't install Flip4mac without it conflicting and killing Flash 9/Quicktime movies in my browser (ala youtube). Seems to be since I installed Quicktime Pro. Running on an Intel MacBook Pro 10.4.10. Same problem with Safari of Firefox. Thanks - Eric

    Why would Flip-4-Mac conflict with flash/quicktime? Flip-4-Mac doesn't even play flash...
    Are you saying you can't view youtube videos?
    If so thry this:
    Go to your Quicktime Preferanes in the System Preferance panel. Click on the Advance tab. Click on MEMI button...scroll down to the very bottom of the list. Miscellaneous ... uncheck Flash media.
    And make sure you have the latest version of Flash too...Close out Quicktime and all browsers. Reopen the browser and try youtube again...

  • I Purchaced Quicktime Pro, But Have Not Received My Software Yet. HELP!

    Since I have a PC, I don't visit the Apple website very often. However, I need to make Quicktime movies from Flash and After Effects.
    Recently, I was offered an update for Quicktime (through a pop-up from Apple), and when I updated it, ALL of my Quicktime movies stopped working What a slimey way to make you buy new software!
    So I went to the Apple website and purchased the new version of Quicktime Pro, hoping that this would resolve the issue. I couldn't figure out if Apple was going to mail me the software, or if I was supposed to download it from the website.
    I have tried to read the support topics, and can't find this subject anywhere. It has been at least 2 weeks, and I haven't received anything from Apple, not from the internet and not in the snail mail. I sent an email to the company and have received NO REPLY!
    I am very frustrated by this and wonder if Apple actually knows what it is doing? How do they expect to keep customers, if they have such terrible customer service?
    Is there anyone out there who can tell me how to get my hands on the software that I purchased?

    Someone else may correct me, but to the best of my knowledge, QuickTime cannot deal with any Flash format newer than Flash 5. Because of that, the more recent versions of QT have removed Flash support pretty much completely. So for a Flash 8 video, I believe you'll need some other conversion tool. But with luck someone else here with more solid knowledge about Flash and conversion will chime in.
    As to the AfterEffects movies, what codecs (audio and video) were used and what precisely means "quit working". Will they not load, will they load but not play at all, or will they load and play but with problems?
    And again, it will probably help people offer suggestions if you post what version of QuickTime you're using. If it says it's up to date, I would presume it's 7.5.5, but check the version in QuickTime Player to confirm.
    Regards.

  • On my Mac OSX 10.4.11,  having trouble upgrading to Quicktime Pro

    On my Mac OSX 10.4.11, I  upgraded Quicktime 7.6.4 to Quicktime Pro. My problem is, when doing transitions in iMovie, I get the message to check the "enable flash checkbox under the Advanced Tab in Quicktime Preferences" . There is no such option offered under Preferences on my 10.4.11 Mac.

    For iCloud, you need a version of iTunes 10, and 10.4.11 only supports up to 9.2.1.  10.4 offers no iCloud access, while 10.5 and 10.6 have limited access.  Only 10.7 and 10.8 are integrated with iCloud.

  • Can't edit in Quicktime Pro

    I just upgrated to Quicktime Pro, but the edit fuctions are unavailable. I have saved a movie clip imported from a Video Camera as a .mov file, and selected a portion, but copy / cut / paste etc. are still grey. Any and all help is greatly appreciated!

    Open the file with QuickTime Player and look at the Movie Info window.
    I'll bet you'll see that the file is MPEG-1 format.
    MPEG Streamclip (free) can convert it to QuickTime formats that you can edit. QuickTime Pro can't edit muxed track formats (MPEG 1 or 2 and Flash).

  • How to restore sound to exported avi? - Flash MX 2004 Pro

    Hi,
    Over the last couple of days I have been tinkering around with Flash MX 2004 Pro. More specifically, I have been importing avi's to the library and then placing the embedded video into a movieclip so I could have more control over it. While in the library I could preview the video along with the sound. Exporting the video again in avi format it would render the sound. However, all of a sudden it will only preview the video and not the sound in the library and the same goes for when I export a video there is no sound. The strange thing is the sound is still present when I test the movie. I have tried reinstalling the program with no luck. Any ideas?
    Many thanks.

    Well there is no answer to my question, but I did finally get the Adobe Media Encoder dialog box to come back again.
    After uninstalling Premiere and QuickTime, then shutting down the computer, rebooting and logging on to the Admin account, shutting down again, rebooting again, logging in to the Admin account again ...
    I then went in to the registry and removed all the Entries that had either of these in it:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\DVA\COM
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\DVA\FLASH
    and these as well
    C:\Program Files (x86)\QuickTime\QTComponents\FLV.qtx
    C?\Program Files (x86)\QuickTime\QTComponents\FLV.qtx
    Rebooted the computer, logged back in to Admin.
    I then re-installed QuickTime, and rebooted.
    I then installed Premiere and the Adobe Media Encoder Flash dialog now shows up.
    I'd be careful messy with the registry if you are trying to fix this type of problem.  Try uninstalling quicktime and premiere and do the above shutdown, reboot sequence a number of times before doing anything to the registry. 
    I'm not sure what I'm going to do about that Flash Website I've working on...

  • Quicktime Pro VS Sorenson Squeeze which is better for uploading to YouTube?

    I'm thinking of buying Quicktime Pro or Sorenson Squeeze - which is better for uploading to YouTube? Which would give my video better quality?
    Also, with regard to Sorenson Squeeze: The website says these are its requirements - could someone explain what each of them means in logical terms?
    Mac OS X system requires:
    Power PC with G5 processor or greater or Intel processor - (I'll be using this program with a MacBook Pro - will this work?)
    Mac OS X 10.4 or later - (Again, will this work with a MacBook Pro?)
    512 MB of RAM
    QuickTime 7.2 or later
    DirectX 9.0b or later (What is this and how will I get it? Is it free?)
    * Mac users must have the Flip4Mac plugin from Telestream (Is this plugin free?) ** Windows only feature * Plugin sold separately
    Please be as specific as possible.
    Thank you so much in advance for answering my questions! It is really helpful!

    First.
    You have no control over the conversion to Flash video (done during the YouTube upload) if you use QuickTime .mov format.
    Second.
    YouTube does allow H.264 Video for its "high quality" display so you would want a QuickTime .mov container.
    Now you are even more confused than when you started.
    Flip4Mac allows export from QuickTime (and apps like iMovie that use it) to Windows Media Player (.wmv) formats. They will also be converted to Flash Video by YouTube so you gain nothing by using it.
    You don't need Squeeze, QuickTime Pro or the Flip4Mac upgrades. Just use iMovie 7 (part of iLife '08).

  • Copy Video From Sony VRD-MC3 DVD Recorder to Quicktime Pro

    I burn short clips to DVD on my Sony VRD-MC3 burner. I then load it on my mac to convert over to quicktime pro so I can create clips and add to my movies. The DVD plays on my mac DVD player but I can't get it to open on my QT pro so I can convert to the necessary movie extensions. The Finder wont show any folders on the DVD. Can anyone help me with being able to load these files and then convert using quick time Pro?
    Thanks

    I found this info about the recorder in a Google search:

    Partitions 1 and 2 are ext2 filesystems storing the firmware files (locked up in a signed+encrypted cramfs image, so hacking will be hard). Partition 3 is encrypted xfs. Until someone cracks the encryption, no directory listing and no TS files (plus no guarantee that Sony is using TS files to store the content anyway). Breaking the encryption on any of this stuff may be tough since the manual acknowledges that they are using GNU Privacy Guard. On the other hand, since people have reported being able to update multiple units from the same Sony-provided USB flash drive, that would seem to indicate that the firmware isn't individually signed and encrypted for each unit, making it more significant if someone does manage to figure out the keys and signing scheme.
    Sony does this kind of stuff all the time. It's similar to Macrovision protection on VHS tape recordings.
    My guess is that the encryption is passed on to the DVD copy of the file which allows viewing but not any duplication or conversion.

  • What types of video can I edit in QuickTime Pro?

    I'm looking to simply cut sections of existing video and save them as a new file. I tried doing this with an .mpeg, but with no luck. Does QuickTime Pro only allow you to edit .mov files, or can you edit other formats as well?

    Leopard10.5 wrote:
    lots of formats, you just have to get the codecs so it can play it.
    .mov
    .mp4
    .flash
    .dv
    MOV is a container, not a format (codec). Inside a MOV container is the video file which could be in an unsupported format like DivX, in which case the required codec is needed. Some files that end in MP4 are not in a conforming MPEG-4 codec and they won't play either. You forgot to mention WMV which can be played for free with Flip4mac and exported for a small cost with an upgraded version of F4M.
    Users should have ONLY - unless something very specific is supplied with an application - apple's codecs, Flip4mac to play Windows media files and Perian 1.1 to play back all the cruft from the interweb, in their Quicktime folder.

  • Exporting flash to quicktime

    I have tried exporting from flash to a QT movie using Flash MX AND CS4. Each time I get an error "The installed version of QuickTime does not have a handler for this type of Macromedia Flash movie"
    I have changed publish settings to ALL options (including 5) with no success. Any ideas?

    Check under the "help" menu in flash... Type "export"in the help search. My help search pops up both Quicktime and Quicktime video.
    Version 7 here..... <<<
    I followed your instructions. Still no go. Under "help" menu (after typing "export") I have Export Export > Export Image Export Movie Export Motion XML
    I am running QuickTime Pro Ver 7.5.5 (249.13)
    Thanks for taking the time!
    This is killing me.

  • Converting Flash to Quicktime

    I have had a look around the forums but i am still not completley clear on this:
    I have an animation made on Flash MX 2004 saved as a .swf file that opens in Flash Player, do i need a previous version of Flash to turn my animation in Quicktime?, How do i do it
    Or if there is an easier format to export into can someone tell me
    Also, does anyone know how to make a Flash .swf into a moving avatar
    Thanks, G

    Follow Colin's advice for the answer.
    Easiest method is to open your Flash project and "Publish" it to QuickTime using the Flash 5 format. This file can be opened with QuickTime. QuickTime Pro would allow you to save as which would put your Flash file into a .mov container. It would just be a .swf inside a .mov file and would retain audio and mouse actions.
    To convert to .gif (animated) would require you export from QuickTime Pro to Image Sequence and then assemble these frames using a GIF builder app like Image Ready or GIFBuilder.

  • Quicktime Pro to animated gif

    I need to convert a flash.swf file to an animated gif. I read that quicktime can do it. Converting and swf to Quicktime is easy but all the posts I read about QT to .gif are old, from 2002. Can anyone give me a 2009 answer as I need to do this.
    thx
    rdee

    7.3.1
    Previous versions could open and play .swf files if they were "published" (authored in the Flash software) as version 5, or lower. Flash is currently at 10.1 (beta).
    If you export to an "image sequence" you could use a Gif app to "animate" it. QuickTime Pro can't make animated .gif files. Only .mov files from still images.
    The final file will be dozens of times larger than the .swf file and will not look as good or scale in dimensions.
