Having trouble converting quick time to mpeg4

i have a bunch of music videos that are in quick time format that i would like to put on my ipod, but when i try and "convert selection for ipod" it gives me a message that i cant be converted because the file does not allow converting or saving... is there some way i can work around this or am i just not going to get to watch my videos on my ipod?

On my ibook, I just add the quicktime video to itunes, then select it and go to the edit toolbar on top (I think it is the edit toolbar, check them all) and click "convert selection for iPod". Whenever i have done this for a quicktime video the audio and video both work great and it goes onto my ipod just fine.
Hope this Helps!

    I'm having troubles converting my raw files from Nikon D5200 (NEF) to DNG. I tried using Lightroom 4, but it didn't identify the folder containing the files. So i downloaded the latest DNG converter but that too didn't identify the files kept in the folder location. So I downloaded DNG converter v7.3 for D5200. It identifies the folder and files; but it is giving me parsing error on trying to convert files. I'm running Windows Vista Home Edition SP1. Kindly advise. Thank you.

    I probably missed this detail in what you’ve posted, but do you see the thumbnails of the three cameras’ raw files in Finder if you don’t convert to DNG?
    What has happened in the past is that the Apple raw interpreter doesn’t read thumbnails of DNGs it doesn’t like, where at least one thing it didn’t used to like was embedded lens corrections for mirrorless cameras.  Are the Olympus and Panasonic mirrorless—meaning there is no optical viewfinder and everything is seen on an LCD screen or perhaps an electronic view finder?  If so the reason these are different is that the camera is doing the lens distortion corrections automatically and this information is stored in the raw files and in the DNGs but Apple doesn’t know how to use these embedded lens corrections or doesn’t know how to read the newer DNG spec that does allow for this information to be embedded in the DNG, at least.
    Apple could just extract the embedded jpg preview and ignore the other parts of the file it doesn’t understand, but it apparently doesn’t do this.
    What I’m not sure about is if the Apple raw interpreter still has this problem or if you’re on an older system without the latest updates for camera raw decoding by Apple.

    Dear Forum,
    I realise this isn’t necessarily your problem, buy I’m having trouble converting my RAW files to jpegs.
    Even though my RAW files are 90MB plus, the jpegs when converted are only around 6MB.
    Am I doing something wrong?
    Thanks,

    HHi Barbara, thanks for replying to my post.
    No there's nothing wrong with the Jpegs, but I want to srart uploading images for sale in Alamy, but they say they must be a minimum of 17mb un compressed. Does that mean that at 6mb compressed from 90mb they'd be acceptable?
    thanks,

  • Having trouble converting array to spreadsheet string, storing the file and coverting back to array with complex numbers

    I am working with a network analyzer. I have arrays made of 5 columns the first consisting of an integer and the next four consisting of complex numbers. I am converting the array into a spreadsheet string and then saving the file using the write characters to a file VI. That seems to work well as when I open the file in Excel all the data is there. However when I try to reverse the process, open file and convert back to array, I loose some of the data. Specifically the imaginary parts of my complex numbers are all going to zero. I have narrowed down the problem to be in the conversion from spreadsheet string to array and vice versa. I
    think the problem may be with the 'format' input to the VI. I do not have an adequate resource for this so I am not sure what to put in to accomplish my task. Any takers?

    Hi Biz
    I don't think there is a direct way of converting a complex number to a
    string, so when you convert the array to a spreadsheet string, the
    numbers would be converted to real data.
    However, you could try separating the real and imaginary parts using the
    "Numeric: Complex to Re/Im" function, and then store these - either in
    separate files or in adjacent columns/rows in the same file. Then, when
    you read in the data again, use the "Numeric: Re/Im to Complex" function
    to put the two "halves" together.
    If you actually want Excel to interpret the numbers as imaginary, then
    you'll probably want to create a string for each complex number of the
    form "Re + Im*i" (after separating the Re and Im parts), by using
    "String:Format into String" with 2 numeric inputs and the format string
    "%f+%fi".
    Reading the data back into Labview then would require splitting the
    string into the 2 pieces by using "Stringcan from String" with 2
    numeric outputs (smae precision as original numbers specified by the 2
    Default Value inputs) and the same format string "%f+%fi", and then using
    the above-mentioned "Numeric: Re/Im to Complex" function. It worked for
    me, so if you can't follow what I am describing, send me an email and I
    can email you what I did (LV 5.1.1).

  • I am having trouble using my time capsule to back up. I tried repairing through "first aid" Disk 4s2 failed and I have been directed to erase. What is in this disk? Should I erase it??

    I am having trouble using my time capsule to back up. I tried repairing through "first aid" Disk 4s2 failed and I have been directed to erase. What is in this disk? Should I erase it??

    Only you know what is on the disk.. if you have been running TM to the TC then it will have your backups.. are they important?? Otherwise it will be what you..or others in the house have copied to it.. is that important?
    If the first aid has failed the disk then it could be a good idea to erase it.
    Does the disk mount in finder so you can see the main directory?

  • Converting quick time into windows movie maker

    I wanted to create a basic slideshow in windows movie maker that includes video clips too. I've done this before. However, I have a video clip that was taken on my digital camera and downloaded into the computer. It is a quick time file. I am not able to import this into windows movie maker. Is there a way I can convert this? Or export it out onto my video camera thru firewire? I don't want to spend money on Quick Time Pro 7.

    iDVD is the app, that comes "free" with any Mac, to author, encode and burn videoDVDs....
    I'm pretty sure, your digicam came with some software, which allows the download to a Windows machine... read the manual.....
    or, you ask in some Movie Maker forum?
    such .mov files would be imported flawless on a Mac, but Windows?... very little support here...

  • Converting Quick Time Movie to MP3 in iTunes

    In iTunes version 4.9 Quick Time Movies converted to MP3 files without loss of audio quality. After upgrading to iTunes 5.0.1 and Quick Time 7.0.2 the conversion results in a great deal of static. Can anyone suggest a fix?

    Hi affilgraph,
    Yes, it can be done. First, go to iTunes preferences, choose "Advanced", click on the "Import" Tab and select "MP3 encoder" next to "Import Using". Close the window. Now select the files in questions, go to the "Advanced" menu and choose "Convert selection to MP3". However, if your files are already encoded to AAC this will not decrease the size of your library significantly AND you will lose sound quality. In addition, converting your library in one go might bring your computer to its knees risking data loss. So, I would recommend buying a bigger HD instead.

  • Trouble with quick time installation

    whenever i try to install quick time the installer gives me the message "there is a problem with this windows installer package. a program required for this install to complete could not be run." i have tried uninstalling and re installing, repairing the installation, installing an older version of quick time, and using the windows installer cleanup program but none of it has worked this problem also occurs when trying to install itunes

    Did you ever resolve this issue with quicktime? I noticed your name is on a lot of the forums that post questions regarding quicktime and itunes updates and problems with Bonjour, so I thought I'd ask you for help:
    I bought a new computer in February with Windows 7. I was never able to get quicktime to work properly and now when my computer tells me I need to update, it keeps giving me error messages:
    "Errors occurred while installing the updates. If the problem persists, choose Tools-Download Only and try installing manually." I did that and when I choose Itunes it gives me this message:
    "Service 'Bonjour Service' failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services." I tried that thing you suggested on another string of giving myself "permission" under the security tabs. It didn't work.
    Please help -- is this a Windows 7 thing?

    Do I need quick time on my pc with the new iTunes 10.5 update that came out today?
    According to the accompanying Apple information the answer is no. However Apple do say if you also want to play other older QuickTime movie files then you will need QuickTime.
    The conclusion is that if your only using music, or your only using movies purchased via the iTunes Store then it seems you no longer need QuickTime installed in Windows with iTunes 10.5.

  • Having trouble converting a string to a double

    Im having problems converting a string to a double in my jsp pages, i have pasted part of the code that is causing the problem. Just a note, i have imported the java.lang.* classes also
    while ( rs.next() )
    String price = rs.getString("price");
    sPrice = double.parseDouble(price);
    out.println("<TD>$" + decimalFormat.format(sPrice) + " </TD>");
    An error occurred at line: 140 in the jsp file: /cs399/AddToShoppingCart.jsp
    Generated servlet error:

    C:\jakarta-tomcat-4.1.29\work\Standalone\localhost\_\cs399\AddToShoppingCart_jsp.java:277: class expected
              sPrice = double.parseDouble("price");
    ^

    double is a primitive. You want java.lang.Double, with a capital "D":
    sPrice = Double.parseDouble(price);MOD

  • Having trouble setting up Time capsule...

    I just bought a new iMac last night. I also picked up Time Capsule and Apple TV. I'm having a problem setting up Time Capsule correctly. I'll go through what I did step by step and hopefully someone can help me as I've never tried to set up a wireless network before.
    I'm connected to the internet via Comcast. I have the outside cable coming into the modem and the ethernet cable from the modem i have plugged into TC's WAN port (the one with the gear logo).
    I start by opening Airport Utility ( I upgraded to the most recent version using the install disc that came with TC) and it recognizes TC in the left side of the window. It says it found TC with default settings and gives a name for it and an Airport ID. I click continue.
    The next window prompts me to name the TC and assign a password. I do so and click continue.
    The next window gives me some options about setting up a new or existing wireless network. It says it found some existing networks which I assume are my neighbors. I select "I don't have a wireless network and want to create one". I click continue.
    The next window prompts me to give a name and security level to the new network. I provide a name and select WPA/WPA2 Personal and enter and verify a password. I click continue.
    The next window asks whether I'd like TC to be in Bridge mode or Share a single IP address using DHCP and NAT.
    If I click Share a single IP, a popup tells me "This will cause my TC to continue to blink amber and do I want to ignore this and continue?". So I figure this can't be a good thing and I click on Bridge mode not really knowing what it means.
    The next window asks me to enter the TCP/IP info from my ISP. It also says to choose "Using DHCP" if I receive an IP address automatically. So in the box where it says "Configure IPv4", I select "Using DHCP" and there is an IP address and Subnet mask with numbers after each. Below that is Router Address, with fields for DNS Server, Domain Name and DHCP Client ID. These fields are blank. I click continue.
    The next window says TC will use these settings:
    TC name - Jim's Time Capsule
    Wireless Mode - Create a wireless network
    Network Name - Jim's Network
    Wireless Security - WPA/WPA2 Personal
    Connect Using - Ethernet
    Configure IPv4 - Using DHCP
    IP Address - (Provided Automatically)
    If settings are correct, click Update to finish setting up your TC or click Go Back to change settings. I click Update and a box tells me that the device and its network service will be temporarily unavailable and do I want to continue? I click continue.
    The next window tells me that the settings for TC have been updated successfully and its being configured. I then get a window reporting a problem.It says-
    "Problem 1 of 1: Internet Connection
    Your Apple wireless device does not have a valid IP address. Make sure your Apple wireless device is connected to your broadband modem or local network, verify your settings and try again. If you still can't connect, call your ISP."
    There are two boxes with options. The first is "Connect Using" and "ethernet" is selected with "PPoE" being the other option. The second box says "Configure IPv4" and "Using DHCP" is selected, and "Manually" is the other option.
    Obviously, I'm doing something wrong, but I don't have a clue. I'm getting online fine when I plug the ethernet cable into the back of the iMac. I've reset the modem by hitting the reset button. The light turns green on the TC but I can't connect to the internet. Any ideas? Feel free to call me a big dummy
    Jim

    Thank you, Jim Somoygi. I had a similar multi-hour odyssey with a AE and a Comcast cable modem.
    This solved the seemingly endless blinking amber light:
    1. unplug power from the modem and AE (or time capsule). Go get a beverage of your choice (wait a couple of minutes).
    2. My modem has a battery backup (Comcast phone service). So, I pressed a tiny reset button on the back of the Comcast modem (it's made by Arris). With the battery backup, I'm not sure I would have been able to reset the modem simply by unplugging.
    3. Make sure there is an ethernet cable connecting the cable modem and the AE or TC
    4. Plug the modem back in, wait for the lights to come on. I also had to press a "standby" button on the front of the modem to get all the lights to come on.
    5. Plug in the AE (or TC)
    6. Green light on the AE (it's not easy being green)
    7. Choose the appropriate Airport network & surf away.
    I will say that the problem seems to be with the modem, rather than the AE. Once I reset the modem, I could configure the AE with ease. Once the AE is configured, it is absolutely rock stable. Before I fiddled with the network & brought this on myself, I enjoyed shockingly stable networking with the AE -- much better than with previous attempts with Netgear or Buffalo products (although I do like the ease with which Buffalo products can be configured together, using their proprietary handshaking protocol "AOSS").

  • Having troubles converting RGB to CMYK

    @Hi guys
    I having massive issues with converting my business logo form RGB to CMYK. I need to place this logo on my business card ready for printing. I created the logo in RGB format to start of with, but it keeps coming out darker and abit grayscaled
    once the conversation is set. Can anyone help me out with this issue, and if so, can you also provide the steps in how to resolve this issue for future references. Im using Adobe Photoshop CS5 for this execise. I can also provide the actual image attached below as the second image,.

    These bright pink and purple colours are obviously way out of gamut so they convert badly to CMYK. Exactly how they convert depends on what colour profile you are using
    It will probably be best to either rework the design using mixtures of cyan and magenta only or else use mixtures of Pantone colours.
    The Pantone solution will only work for offset printing but is no use for a home printer.
    Read up on colour management like Mylenium says and learn to think in terms of inks rather than screen colours.
