Help exporting video and stills slide show

I have created a slide show with both video and slides but when I created an export .mov file the quality was dreadful. Can anybody please point me in the right direction?

What's the best export format or codec?

  • I'm trying to share to Media Browser a 20 minute still slide show with music and text. I have tried several times to save at 1080 HD, but just before it's finished, a message box pops up saying "File already open with write permission."  What's this mean?

    I'm trying to finalize/share to Media Browser a 20 minute still slide show with music and text. I'd like to finalize it 1080 hd and have tried several times, but just before it's finished, a message box pops up saying it can't be done because "File already open with with write permission."  What does this mean?  All files are closed; this iMovie project is the only thing open.  Does it mean one of the song files from iTunes? And should I just settle for saving it as a "large" file, which is what I'm trying right now?
    Thanks,
    Jamie

    Hi
    Error -49 opWrErr  File already open with write permission
    Trash the preference files while application is NOT Running.
    from Karsten Schlüter
    Some users notice on exporting larger projects from within iMovie that this operation is aborted with an 'error -49'
    This issue occours only on MacOs machines using 10.7x
    try switching-off the Local Mobile Backup
    in Terminal copy/paste
    sudo tmutil disablelocal

  • Adding videos to a slide show

    I have added a video to my slide show in Elements 7 and when I try to preview the show, Photoshop completely closes. What is going on?

    I plan on using a DVD player to view the show. I have tried Movie Maker but I could not figure out how to get the show off of my computer since a DV camera is required and I do not have one. The DVD software that came with my PC is Cyberlink PowerDVD. I cannot use this because I do not have a DVD burner.
    Thank you.
    You say that you do not have a DVD burner on your PC - so please explain in some detail how you plan to use the DVD player for your TV. For example, does your DVD player for the TV have a slot where you can insert a USB device? What is the make and model of the DVD player machine? Or did you mean that you will use DVD player software with your computer connected to your TV?
    Movie Maker - you don't need a DV camera : you can output a WMV file from Movie Maker just as you can from the Photoshop Elements Slide Show Editor.  The dilemma seems to be that neither of these programs will produce a video DVD conforming output.
    Here are some ideas that I was developing - however, we do need to understand what type of output you have the capability to play in order to determine what will help for your specific situation:
    I was thinking that an approach might be to make each section of slide show in PSE Slide Show Editor and separately output each as a separate WMV file. Then use Windows Movie Maker and layout sections of the slide show with your video files in between the slide show sections as you wish.  Then you could output a single wmv file from Windows Movie Maker.  Another alternative would be to do everything in Windows Movie Maker and not use the PSE slide show editor at all.

  • Built Flash Video and will NOT show in Hosted Environment

    Built Flash Video and will NOT show in Hosted Environment.
    The files generated work on development machine. I posted the same
    files in hosted environment and flash will not show. I first
    thought it was Vista 64 IE 7 so I switched to XP IE7 and same
    results. Still it is strange the falsh works locally. I am sure it
    is something simple that I am missing. Any help would be
    appreciated. Thank you.

    Nickels55, I appreciate the response. Here are the
    interesting facts. I had my hosting provider apply the mime type
    and restart IIS. No flash video. I have Vista x64 Ultimate with I
    think IIS 7 (the default IIS that comes with the OS.) The flash
    video would not show in that environment until I applied the MIME
    and then it WORKED. Yeah! But I still don’t have it working
    on my web hosting provider with server Win2003. I thought it was
    the hosting provider but I posted on my work server Win 2003 and
    changed the MIME with a reset and could not get the video to work
    there either.
    I would like to try another angle here. Again I am using the
    wizard to encode and publish the flash video. Maybe I don’t
    have a settings correct. I can approach this a few ways.
    1.) I can send my video to someone to post on their Win2003
    server and see if they can get it going.
    2.) Someone send me a short 3 second video that they produced
    that they know it works on Win2003.
    3.) Any other ideas? Surely someone in this universe has used
    the flash wizard to encode a video and published to a Win2003
    server. :)
    I guess the other thing to note is when creating the flash
    video I chose no controls (play, stop, pause). I want the video to
    start when someone accesses the page for the first time.
    Thank you for the help everyone.

  • Importing video clips into slide shows

    I often insert video clips into slide shows.  They mix nicely with pan and zoom still photos.  However, the type of video clips that can be inserted is very restricted.  Why is this?
    Elements can deal with a wide variety of video formats but, as far as I can see, only AVI and WMV videos can be imported into slide shows.  Compact digital cameras typically use AVI, MOV and MP4 formats.  My camera produces MPG videos, which I cannot import.  I have to convert the clips into AVI format and reimport these into Organiser etc - which is very fiddly. I am considering buying a new camera that produces AVI video clips as standard.
    Why is the choice of video formats so limited? I cannot find a list of allowable formats on the Adobe site.

    Hi David
    Thanks for this. I tried that, but again, Streamclip only imported content from the first clip, ignoring the rest...on further inspection, all the VOB files were sub-divisions of the the first item (in essence, the system had chopped up the first recording into sections and formatted them as VOB files, but failed to do that for the remaining content of the DVD).
    I booked an appt with a Mac Genius today and he downloaded Handbrake and this appears to be the way forward - you can isolate any of the content from the DVD, and save into either avi or mp4 files. I currently don't need Streamclip, since after my selection's been saved unto the desktop it can be dragged into iMovie and edited from there. I'll be keeping Steamclip though...after all of the aggro, it seems to good to be true!
    Thanks again for responding to my query. Really appreciated that you took the time.

  • Any way to export videos and preserve the original creation date?

    I recently shot video using an NEX-5N and AVCHD as the format. Since Aperture cannot playback this format, I converted the videos using Handbrake to mp4 (H.264), and then used A Better Finder to change the creation date of the converted file back to the same date as the original file.
    Importing this converted file into Aperture works great, and the imported file shows the correct metadata of the original creation date, not the date of the conversion.
    But when exporting this file from Aperture, it seems like Aperture does not embed the date as metadata, and thus the only date associated with the exported video is the file-system date attached to the file, which will of course be the date of the export. 
    I assume this problem applies to ANY video imported into Aperture, not just those that have been converted.
    Does anyone have a method for exporting video and having the original creation date remain?  This is obviously a problem when exporting videos one-by-one, but would be a bigger problem if I ever wanted to export my entire video library from Aperture into another program...all the video files would have the same date!
    Any feedback would be greatly appreciated!

    EXIF data and video files is even more of a gray area then EXIF data and stills.
    I don't do much video in Aperture so I'll take your word for it that the data isn;t imbedded into the file. In that case the best I can see is to create a custom export preset and  include the Image Date in the filename. Not great but you at least have the data and you might be able to have a script use the date from the filename and somehow add it back into the file.

  • Dragging video and still files into a atom strand template

    How do I drag video and still files into an atom strand theme template in Motion 4? I am trying to do it but the opened file keeps snapping back to the file list.

    The templates can be challenging to modify.
    In that template, it's not the camera that's being animated, it's the group containing the camera. If you select that group, and set the Keyframe Editor to view animated keyframes, you'll see them.
    To modify them, it may be easier to show them in the Timeline so that the keyframes at each frame are bundled into one object and therefore easier to move. But if you are new to Motion, you are diving into the deep end of the pool here.

    My Apple TV stops and returns to main menu during movie playback and photo slide show via homesharing. I have a second Apple TV in another room that works fine.

    Intermittent problems are often a result of interference. Interference can be caused by other networks in the neighbourhood or from household electrical items.
    You can download and install iStumbler to help you see which channels are used by neighbouring networks so that you can avoid them, but iStumbler will not see household items.
    Refer to your router manual for instructions on changing your wifi channel.

  • Export videos and pictures from an ipad to a camera kit using a sd card

    i need to export videos and images from ipad mini to sd card using a camera kit, please help, and if so what app do i need to do that.

    i did find another "scenic route" around, but it has some limitations, yet might be beneficial.
    there is an ipad app called Easy Transfer. basically, it works through the web. you type in a web address it give you, and you can transfer files via the "refresh" button on your browser, and through your ipad.
    the downer is, if you have a so-so internet connection, data is lost on video filles. i tried to transfer even a one minute video file, and it was missig frames when it got to my mac...sigh.
    but, hey...it is another option, perhaps for some of you with cable modem or supa-fast webby web! ;-)

    From the Safari menu bar, select
    Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
    Turn all extensions OFF and test. If the problem is resolved, turn extensions back ON and then disable them one or a few at a time until you find the culprit.
    If you wish, you may be able to salvage the errant extension by uninstalling and reinstalling it. Its settings will revert to their defaults. If the extension still causes a problem, remove it permanently or refer to its developer for support.

  • How do you create a smart album so that you can look at and edit slide show fashion instead of one at a time?

    Is the Apple program always this convoluted every time something new is rolled out to roll over someone?

    Sorry but I have no idea what you're asking. What s "look and edit slide show fashion"? Where does a Smart Album fit into that? You know you can move from shot to shot using the arrow keys, right?

  • Having read how one might be able to send a video that is too large, it seems that those videos and still pictures that are sent, well at least for me anyway, end up 90 degrees to the horizontal...how do i send a pic, or video that is the right way up???.

    my question relates to the orientation of the videos, and still pictures that are sent via the ipad2...they always seem to be 90 degrees to the horizontal...can anyone suggest how to send them so that they will be the right way up???

  • My photos are sharp but become soft when used in and IDVD slide show.

    My photos are sharp but become soft when used in and IDVD slide show. How can I prevent this from happining??

    Hi,
    I suggest that you try unchecking both of the crop options - landscape & portrait.
    To re-create your situation, I had to check the crop for landscape pictures option.
    I prefer to have control over any cropping so I tend to crop each image first before creating the slide show.

  • How do i delete imovie videos and still have them on my time capsule

    how can i delete imovie videos and still have them on my timecapsule

    You can copy them to the TC.. do not expect Time Machine to keep something that you delete though..
    And please recognise you are breaking the idea of Time Capsule.. it is primarily a backup target for TIme Machine.. once you move files to the TC and delete them on the computer.. the only copy of the file is now on the TC.. which has no automated backup.. no easy means of recovery if the drive fails. no parts even.. Apple do not fix.. they give you a replacement and chuck your old one.
    You are hoping that the TC will preserve your files.. when it is well known to be a less than reliable device.
    Think hard if this is really where you want to go.
