Help! Unable to Convert Videos...

I try to add a video into my library, and it will add it, not as a video, but as a song. Opening the 'Video' section and and choosing 'Add file to library...' and selecting my video will just put it in the library as a song... And when I right click it anyways to try to choose the 'Advanced' and 'Convert...' it isn't there.
The files are in MPGE-4 Movie format.
My Ipod is a black 30gb video one.
Help me? Please?

The video file needs to be converted into an IPod video file and you can only do that with Quick Time Pro http://store.apple.com/1-800-MY-APPLE/WebObjects/AppleStore?productLearnMore=D33 81Z/A
I just got it myself but are having problems with it. You can convert MPEG files but you won't have any sound, I found that out after buying the program. Also I just did an AVI file and it converted but when I put it on my IPod all it is is a white screen and no sound but it says its playing. I am trying to find out why but instead of them answering my question the sent me here. ~.~; So I don't think its worth buying but I can't get my money back. >.< The one thing you can do is buy there videos and they will work... Good luck with yours. ^.^;

Unable to upload video to YouTube

I have tried twice to upload a video to YouTube. It is a short video, 7 min 33 sec. I get the error, "Failed (unable to convert video file)". I recently upgraded to Mavericks & iMovie 11 and this is the first time trying to upload since the upgrade. Any suggestons?

Although I believe you when you say it worked after removing tags, I don't think there is a solid cause and effect. The web is loaded with complaints of the iMovie to YouTube upload. It is simply NOT stable. I used iMovie '11 with Mountain Lion and now use the new iMovie 10 with Mavericks. Yes, I said iMovie 10. Apple named it that way. Not me. The iMovie to YouTube upload option is unreliable. We all want to try to narrow it down to a font or a clip or a photo or a title or the duration or the HD resolution etc... In fact, we are wasting our time until Apple works out these issues. I made 20 upload atttempts today. All using an approx 4 minute clip. Trust me. I got "Failed (unable to convert video file)" several times and each time worked to focus on the problem. Nothing was logical. I would add a single photo to a project that had previously worked and it would bomb. I would then delete that photo and it would still fail.

When I convert video files to iPod format in iTunes, it lost audio. Why? :(

I right clicked the video in iTunes and hit convert to iPod format. It converted but the audio disappeared. Can anyone tell me why?

ITunes converts video, drops sound.

Everytime I spend 4+ hours converting a 20 minute video, iTunes cuts out the sound on the video.
Anyone know how to fix this problem?

Quicktime or Quicktime Pro (which iTunes uses) don't convert "muxed" ( muxed means multiplexed where the audio and video are stored on the same track) video files properly. It only plays the video and not the audio.
See:iPod plays video but not audio.
You need a 3rd party converter to convert the file with both audio and video.

You can't play movies in iPhoto. But, you can in quicktime, which is installed along with the OS. Just double click on the .mov file and quicktme should start.

Where are the videos from? are they from a creditable source or from an illegal downloading site such as limewire. most of those videos are not in the correct video format to begin with so apple itunes will not recognize them and convert them. The best way to convert video is to rip your own dvds or home movies and put them on your computer then ipod. There is at least one way on each operating system (windows and mac) to rip your own dvds and then transfer them to itunes and finally put them on your ipod. A mac is the easiest of the two ways. If you have a mac, then you download a program off of the web called handbrake. Simply "google" >handbrake rip dvds< and its homepage should pop up or try <a class="jive-link-external-small" href="http://">http://handbrake.m0k.org). Handbrake allows you to copy and convert your dvds to ipod format. On a windows operating system the most effective way I have found to rip my dvds is quicktime pro($25-$35). You can buy it at quicktime's website. It basically does the same thing as handbrake. I, myself, have simply converted some videos, like sports shows and commercials, to ipod format using itunes and both the video and audio worked fine.
If you have any ?'s just reply back
I hope this helps!

Your help needed converting video to digital

How do I convert video to digital using a G4 Powerbook, Canopus 300 & Imovie HD 6.0.4.
Steps needed, please.
I have VCR, G4 Powerbook, Canopus ADVC 300 and Ilife 08 and/or Imovie HD6.0.4.
Another poster said I needed to purchase Ilife 08 to make it work, but after the software arrived, it required G5 hardware to fully install. Not happy with that.
Is there a workaround? Please advise.

Assuming that you have VHS tapes that you want to convert to digital to use in iMovie? Is that correct? If so, you can find helpful information in these threads:

Converting videos for the ipod -HELP!!!!

I have a few videos in my itunes. I can watch them and they work just fine,but when I attempt to drag and drop them onto my itouch,they won't go because it says that they cannot be played on the ipod.So I right-click and hit convert for ipod and it goes through that long process and creates basically another copy of the movie,just in a different format.When I play that new copy in my itunes,there's no sound.When I put it onto my itouch and I play it,there's no sound either.The video works,it's just the sound that's not there.
Help?

Your source video file is probably muxed.
I don't believe iTunes has the ability to successfully encode a muxed video file with audio. You'll end up with video and no audio.
You'll need to use some other third-party software to do the conversion. There's a handful of software available. Just search the forums and you'll find many titles mentioned.
Try MPEG Streamclip.
