Highest quality slideshow saved to movie file is has terrible resolution in PE12, but PDFs look great. What's up?

I've saved a PE12 slideshow as the highest quality available, but the resolution is low when viewing. When saved as a PDF the resolution is outstanding. Does anyone know how I can get better resolution from the movie file?

How are you creating the video file? PSE itself can only record in the horrid outdated VCD format. Output your slideshow to a WMV file and then use PRE, if you have that, or whatever burning software you have to finalize the video.

  • Best settings for highest quality for exporting a .mov  file to h.264

    Hi,
    I want to know what the best settings are for the highest quality for exporting a .mov file (720p50) to h.264. I want the same quality as the original.
    I want to know the data rate etc.
    regards,
    Jeroen

    There is no way to get the exact same quality when transcoding from an editing source to a highly compressed H.264 QT. However, you can get a real high quality by adjusting the data rate.
    However, these things depend on the length of the original. I routinely encode H.264s with good results in the 3000-5000 data rate range. I also make sure that I use multiple pass encoding. Take a short snippet of your project (10 seconds or so), and try various bit rates until you have one you like that doesn't take forever.

  • I'm on OS X 10.6.8 and have a .mov file which plays on QuickTime 10.0 but with choppy video and the sound is out of sync???? File details are Video Codec: DNxHD (AVdn) Resolution 1920x1080 Audio Codec: PCM S24 BE (in24) Bitrate: 1536kb/s Solutions?

    Question: Is all the source footage shot in 16 bit audio or is some also shot in 12 bit?

  • Slideshow and video (.mov) files

    When I import photos (.JPG) and movies (.MOV) from my camera to the ipad, they appear as an 'ALBUM' and I can run a slideshow on the ipad that will show both photos and movies in the sequence that they were taken. However, when I import the same photos and movies onto my pc, and then sync the ipad with the pc, the movie files show as 'unable to be synced'
    The same photos and movies still show as 'ALBUMS' and are duplicated on the ipad under both 'PHOTOS' and 'ALBUMS'.
    I can run a slideshow under PHOTOS that will include the 'imported' movies.
    Does anyone know why the sync rejects these movie files - the ipad is happy to accept them from the camera?

    Unfortunately, if you don't have (or want to use) the CCK, you may run into problems with a lot more cameras. In most cases, this is caused by the so-called “H.264 level”. While CCK does import videos with, theoretically, incompatible levels (that is, over 4.1), iTunes in no way synchronizes the same videos without your manually decreasing the level first. Most Canon cameras that record 1080p24 videos belong here (they use level 5.0); the most notable exception is the new, high-end Canon EOS 5D Mark III, which not only records audio into AAC instead of the far more storage-unfriendly PCM, but also uses lower and iOS-compatible H.264 levels (4.0 for 1080p and 3.1 for 720p videos).
    That is, first, try finding out what the H.264 level of your videos are and change them with Subler. If Subler can't change it, use other apps to do it. Read  http://www.iphonelife.com/blog/87/making-stock-videos-application-play-every-mp4 -files-possible for a full tutorial (the Subler link is at the bottom). It's about synching for the "Videos" app; however, the same also applies to synching photos back in the "Photos" tab.
    BTW, what camera model is that?

  • Google plus photo download onto iMac is saving as mov file?

    I have a new imac and signed into google to download my google+ photos from my iphone that are no longer in my camera roll.  When I download them they are being saved as a .mov file even though they are not videos.  It's not happening with every photo, but with most.

  • Saving a mov file as a 24 bit uncompressed avi

    I have a MOV file that I created in LiveType. I need to convert it to a 24 bit uncompressed avi - I tried in Compressor (v3.0.5) but couldn't find a way. I tried in Quicktime Pro and saved it as an uncompressed 36bit avi, but don't know how to reduce it town to 24bit -- is it just reducing the colours to thousands or something?
    Argh!

    Why do you need to make it to that specification?
    Tell us what you are trying to do -what is the recipient going to do with the file?
    Maybe we can help you find another way to do this that will be acceptable to your client.

  • Creating slideshow with AVI movie files in iDVD 06?

    Today I was trying to create a slideshow movie with iDVD. I had some AVI movie files that came from my Canon digital camera. I wasnt able to drag them into the slideshow well, so I thought I had to convert them to a .mov file, after converting them I still wasnt able to use them. Is it possible to make a slideshow with movie files as well as pictures in iDVD 06? I know for a fact that I can do this on iDVD 08, so is it possible? thanks in advance.

    Slideshows using movies is just an iLife '08 thing.
    I suggest you do what I do. Use VisualHub to convert the AVI slideshows to DV video movies. The DV video will work great in iDVD 6 when put on a menu page.

  • ProRes 422 MOV files offline in Adobe Media Encoder 2014 (but online in Premiere)

    The question is NOT about exporting PreRes files from a Windows PC, which is what I keep finding in my searches.
    My client gave me ProRes 422 MOV files. I imported them into Premiere Pro CC 2014. I could see and edit them fine. But when I export them via Adobe Media Encoder, they appear to be offline. BTW, other media sources exported fine, such as the PNGs and JPGs I cut to. (I don't think it matters, but I'm attempting to make h.462 mp4s, which I do all the time, and have done with ProRes sources before using CC 2014.)
    I tried exporting a short video clip (using same ProRes 422 source) from Premiere and it worked fine. Why not Adobe Media Encoder? I need to encode batches of videos with ProRes sources overnight, so exporting from Premiere is not a good option.
    I'm on a Win 7 PC and I have QT Pro and iTunes (which I think also installs codecs).

    Everything seems to be working fine now, though I don’t know why. I did update my iTunes (which I’d rather not even have installed on my PC because I never use it, but removing it seems to mess things up). I’ll also make sure to keep my QT updated. I thought it was because I upgraded to the paid version a couple months ago hoping to fix a similar problem, but again, it seemed to get fixed when I updated iTunes.
    Thanks for getting back to me!

  • Iphoto 6.0.5 - keeps searching for .mov file that has been deleted

    OK, this is my problem...
    I am running the most recent version of iphoto. i keep all of my photos in the iphoto library, which i run off of an external drive. recently, my drive filled up so i got a new 120gb firelite drive and transferred my photos AND the iphoto library to the new drive. then i started iphoto and was given the choice to create a new library or locate the library. i chose 'locate' and pointed it in the right direction. iphoto opened, and all my photos everything appeared to be ok in the program. this is when my problems began...
    problem 1: if i try to do anything with any of the photos, i am told that the file cannot be located. i tried to re-import the library but the program began complaining about not being able to locate several movie files (that are in the library and on the external drive). then iphoto stopped responding.
    problem 2: i then did a force quit, and now EVERY time i try to do ANYTHING (with other programs) while iphoto is open, it begins to look for the same movie file each time. then iphoto stops responding. i've since deleted the movie from my drive and from the iphoto library, but iphoto keeps looking for it each time.
    please help!!!! my sanity rests on your ability to help me out....

    1. Try rebuilding the Library: Restart the iPhoto while holding down the Apple and Option keys. The resulting dialogue will give you the options.
    2. Apart from moving the Libary, have you changed anything within the iPhoto Library Folder?

  • .mov file plays fine on friend's PC, but not mine

    Hey, I have a .mov file that is a little over 1gb. It plays the first 4 seconds just fine, and then the picture pauses and the audio stops. The marker on the progress bar and the timer keep going like everything is normal. When I scrub through the timeline, it flashes between a blank green screen and the last frame where it froze.
    I have Quicktime Pro and tried exporting is as a smaller file, but it still pauses and does the same thing 4 seconds in. Exported it as .avi, same exact thing.
    So, I took it to a friend's PC which is running Windows 7 and it worked just as it should. I'm running XP Pro 64 on mine. I have plenty of hard drive space available and 2 gigs of RAM, so I don't see what's the problem.
    I've read that Quicktime tends to have a problem with XP64, and that version 7.4.5 works the best, but after going back to that, it still does the exact same thing.
    Does anyone have any thought on this? Thanks in advance!

    raytw, I just tried opening it in Streamclip and clicked Fix Timecode Breaks, but it didn't seem to affect it at all. And at first I thought it may be a corrupted file, but then again, it DOES work fine on my friend's PC.
    Kirk, I'm starting to think it may be my 64 bit OS as well. I tried changing the compatibility mode, but when I do so, Quicktime gives me an error saying, "QuickTime Player requires Windows 2000 or later. Please make sure compatibility mode is disabled in the Compatibility tab of the properties for QuickTimePlayer.exe." and it won't open.

    InDesign cannot open a PDF natively. You can Place pages from the PDF as linked images, or you can purchase a commercial plugin from Recosoft or Markzware that will convert PDF to InDesign.

  • Issues with saving as .mov file in iMovie OS X 10.9

    ever since i updated to the new OS X 10.9 Maverick, and the update with iMovie, i can no longer seem to save my finalised videos in a .mov format (when you used to go to the drop down menu "share", and select a quick time format), but this is my preferred way of finalising videos. is there any way to do this in the latest updated version of iMovie?

    As I see, the only option is to share to Theater, iTunes or a file. But there is no option to choose export format and bitrate.

  • Can I convert a pdf slideshow with narrative to a movie file?  Using Pro version 8

    I am working with a template software (Vacation Bible School) where I insert pictures and at the end, it plays a slideshow with narrative (already in the template) when you open it up and hit the spacebar.  it works fine, but there are 5 different files and the company we got the template/pdf files from suggest for presentation purposes, I should just open up each file individually and start the slide show.  it seems kind of clumsy having to open up each file individually, play it, close it and then go to the next file.  It would be great if I could capture the slideshow as a movie file, then combine all 5 movie files into one file that can be played on a CD player (I use Sony Vegas studio and Nero software for this).  I am using Acrobat Pro version 8.  Any suggestions?

    It can't be done in Acrobat.
    I just did a Google search on "pdf slideshow to video" and saw a couple of third party products that claim to be able to do it. I have never had a need for that, and can't claim how well they work.
