HDV and AIC has changes iMovie 10 to iMovie 11

This is baffling me .. Maybe its happened after I upgraded to iMovie 11. Maybe not - Im hoping someone at Apple is reading this ..
Firstly we use a Sony Z1E camera - Normally we use FCP to get in the digital files .. What we do is as follows
1. Capture all to the memory card in the camera
2. Use clipwrap to pull the files into the harddrive - Just re-wrap not change anything faster than log and transfer
We end up with Apple HDV files - They are seen fine in FCP ad also were in iMovie .. I shall explain
So here is what is happening
Over the last week - I have brought in some of the HDV files into iMovie - Whats interesting is that they are seen in iMovie as HDV files (Not Apple Intermediate Codec) - Great - They are at the best quality possible.
However now whats happening is when I move files into iMovie they are seen as AIC files - Somehow iMovie 11 is transcoding them from HDV to AIC -- This seems to have happened when I upgraded to iMovie 11 (I did that last week) - it seems to be happening after the upgrade
Anyone got any ideas on how to keep them as HDV -- (AIC just pops down the quality) as we have FCP on our machines we can then output in HDV again from iMovie -- Its just a really quick way of us editing .
Suggestions welcome -- Maybe there is a setting that Im missing - But I dont see how i got HDV files in before to iMovie and they were left as HDV but now they are transcoded. Perhaps I should reinstall the FCP onto the machine again - So that it goes on after the iMovie upgrade.
I would really like to maintain HDV as the codec in the files and not transcode them - It really pulls down the quality which is especially noticable as noise on dark colours in lower light .
Odd but Im totally baffled.
thanks

Hi
I have noticed the same thing and here is how you "fix the problem"
1. Start a new event and import 1 HDV file and that will be converted to AIC
Let´s call the event TEST. When that is done close iMovie
2 Go to where you have your iMovie events folder and open the folder and in there you will find your TEST event, open that also and there you will see your imported HDV/AIC file.
Delete the file and leave everything else in there as it is.
3 Move your HDV files that you want in the event (Copy and paste) in to the same folder and then close the folder
4 Start iMovie and when it starts it will say something like that it is creating thumbnails or whatever.
The point is that now you event will be native HDV and not converted to AIC
Good luck
Cheers
Hans

  • The back button no longer works. I have disabled all add-ons, rebooted & reset the defaults for the browser and nothing has changed. This happens on all webpages.How do I get the back button to light up again?

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    *Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
    *https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode
    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
    *Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
    * Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
    Another possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

  • "Your session has timed out,try again." is the message I get every time I try to purchase a song on itunes. My last purchase was June 11, 2011, and nothing has changed since then.

    "Your session has timed out, try again." is the message I get every time I try to purchase a song. My last purchase was june of this year, and nothing has changed since then.

    I had this problem, but it was because I was clicking on an external link. Try instead going straight into iTunes, then going to the Podcast section. At the bottom of the "Podcast Quick Links" section, there's a text, "Submit a Podcast." Click on this instead. Once I did, I got to the same page as before, but it did process the feed.
    Good luck!

    Have you went to Settings>General Time&Date and correct the time.  Make sure the time zone is correct too.  Also go to Settings>General>Inernational and make sure the Gergorian calender is selected.

    Are you getting any error when Muse crashes? what's the one function it lets you do before it freezes?

  • The volume on my iPad 3 has gone. I've checked the mute button, tried restarting, resetting etc and nothing has changed. I can't hear the music, hear any sound from videos. Most times the video stops playing after a seconds. My iPad 3 is only 2 months ol.

    The volume on my iPad 3 has gone. I've checked the mute button, tried restarting, resetting etc and nothing has changed. I can't hear the music, hear any sound from videos. Most times the video stops playing after a seconds. My iPad 3 is only 2 months ol.

    If you have lost all sound and video is freezing on you, that ain't good. Your iPad is two months old so I would not hesitate to contact Apple at all. You are entitled to 90 days of phone support.
    http://www.apple.com/support/ipad/contact/.
    If you want to try a couple of things on your own, try quitting all apps and then reboot the iPad - not so much for the sound issue itself - but more as a general "start all over again" sort of approach. It might help with the video freezes.
    Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar. Reboot the iPad.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    If you use headphones on occasion, you can try plugging and unplugging those as well and see if the sound comes back.
    You could even try restoring the iPad to factory settings and then restore from a backup, but unless there is something totally hosed on the iPad, that should not be necessary with a two month old device - of course assuming that you didn't drop the iPad or do something accidental that could be causing the problems.

  • My WiFi name and password has changed. Did someone hack my WiFi? My computer can connect but not my iPhone 5s, and the connection for my computer is full, please help.

    Hello, this is my first post.
    Well lately I've been experiencing some connection issues with my iPhone 5s. I was on my iPhone just watching Youtube when my iPhone 5s disconnected, I tried to connect again by going to settings> Wi-FI> and then select my network as usual, but the weird thing is that my Wi-Fi network has changed it's name to Wireless, it used to be Wireless710. Also the password has been changed.
    My computer can easily connect due to the fact that it is hardwired to the Wireless Cable Modem Gateway.
    Extra Info:
    Carrier is Sprint.
    I am using Windows 7 Ultimate.
    My Wireless Cable Modem Gateway is Netgear.
    And now I am confused because when I open the small tab with the computer and a plug on the bottom right corner next to the speaker icon it says I'm not connected :/?! Here is a picture of it:
    Note that I can not connect to it but am connected on my computer. It just disappeared on my phone and computer, I even unplugged my router waited for 20 seconds and connected it back in. Did it wok? for my computer yes again because it is hardwired, but my phone? No. Wireless 710 still won't show up. Is this a possible hack? Please help me as much as you all can, thank you very much.

    Log in to the router's console with a web browser from your computer. What kind of encryption did you have on the router? If it was WEP that's about as secure as no encryption. It should be WPA or WPA2. There has been an exploit reported in Netgear and Linksys routers that allows someone connected to the router if Remote Access to the console is enabled to take it over and install spyware on it.
    Is it your router, or the cable providers? If it is yours it has been hacked. If it belongs to the cable provider they may have changed it to make it more secure. Call them.
    And if it has been hacked and is yours the best thing to do is to throw it away and get a new, more secure router. Or you can try reflashing the firmware by going to Netgear's site and downloading a clean copy.

  • Computer stopped connecting to internet even though there is full signal and nothing has changed.

    so the other day i opened my computer and it wouldn't connect to the internet. it had been working fine before that and nothing had changed, it just stopped connecting.

My roommates can both connect with their computers so i dont know the problem! i've looked for soulutions on other forums and havet tried deleteing "airport" as a source and then re-adding it, deleting the system configuration folder (a suggestion someone got from apple), renewing the DHCP lease, nothing works. help!

  • I have a Droid Bionice, my 1st Smart phone. An install kept coming up ,I did it and everything has changed. I don't knpw what to do...Help...smart phone...dumb person

    I bought a Droid Bionic Smart Phone. I loved it so very much. When I was on it and install kept coming up, over & over. I Don't know what it was called but I did look and it didn't say Verizon anywhere but I assumed w/my Lookout security app it wouldn't let anything bad in. But I downloaded it now my icons are different and on my manage apps I use to have only maybe 20 settings now I have a bunch. and the lil icon looks like a blue square app w/the lil cog looking symbol in it. Everytime I try to delete one thinking it will go back to the way it was it says it will cause problems w/all other settings. And also after the icom it says com.motorola.android.deep it says that on about 20 or 25 after the icon.It won't let me disable  any of them.
    The very 1st icon on my Apps on ,y Apps setting is the blue symbol that looks like a cog, and it has 32.00KB if I try to disable that because I figure it's the mother of all of them it says in a pop up...Disable built -in app-----If you disable a built in app, other apps may misbehave.? That doesn't sound very professional to me.One even says key chain for the app. I don't know what to do. I did look at it and I assumed when it popped up it was a legit thing. I didnt know you had to beware of something that was a pop up on the page.
    I don't know if it's a Gingerbread or Ice Cream thing, I just know when I go to my settings it has overtaken 3/4th of my apps. And on most of them it doesny even offer me the chance or choice to disable it. Please somebody help me. I am so new to this. I loved my phone before now it's taken Over everything. I am scared if I run some of the things I see it says on my settings app it runs my phone,it says for instance:
    Permission
    This App can access the following on your phone
    *YOUR LOCATION
    coarse (network-based) location,fine (GPS) location
    *SYSTEM TOOLS
    modify global system settings
    STORAGE
    SYNC SERVICE
    I dont know what any of this is and it says if I stop of close any of it , it will cause the app to fail.
    How can I tell what I have downloaded as far as this whole montrosity....SO I can study it and read up what to do. I do't want to lodr my pictures or my pictures on my gallery/ I am afraid I have really screwed it up good!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    I THANK ANYBODY THAT CAN HELP ME IN ADVANCE....

  • I changed jobs and purchased a new iPhone I  no longer have any of my iBook information. My Apple account and name has changed is there any way to get the info I had in iBooks to my new phone under my new account?

    I changed jobs and bought a new phone. I would like to get my iBooks info on my new phone but it is under my old account. When I try to log in under the old account i get a message that I will not be able to log back onto my new account for a period of time. HOw do i get the information from my old account over to my new account?

    You can't currently transfer purchases/downloads from one account to another account.
    When you download past purchases from an account then you will potentially tie the device (or computer if you do it on that) to that account for 90 days : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4627
    Have you got the ibooks already on your computer and/or on a backup so that you can sync them to your new iPhone ? If not then have you bought anything on your new account yet - could you go back to just using the old account ?
