How can I watch 1920x1080 60p video in the iPad?

Background - I recently purchased a Sony Camcorder.  It records in AVCHD format 1920x1080 60p.  I have converted the AVCHD format to .mov using clip wrap but I cannot sync the file to my iPad 3 with iTunes probably because the iPad can only play up to 30 fps and this video is in 60 fps.  I can record in a lower quality mode of 1440x1080 30 fps but the quality is significantly less.  Is there a way to make this compatible somehow to play on the iPad?   Maybe convert it from 60 fps to 30? I know there must be a way.  I have a 3rd party app called Filebrowser and when I play the .mov 1920x1080 60p file directly from the source (my MacBook) it plays it on the iPad and the quality is incredible.  Only problem is that since it is streaming the iPad can't stream fast enough to play it without pausing every 5 seconds.  If my camera could record in 1920x1080 30p I wouldn't have this issue but for some reason Sony doesn't allow this.  I chose Sony because the video is significantly better than Canon, Nikon and other brands.  Does someone please have a suggestion?  I have been researching for hours so if there is another forum post that explains I am sorry I could not find it and I have a migraine from searching.  I am definitely an amateur at best trying to get great quality home video on my retina display iPad.  What good does the retina display do if I have to watch mediocre video quality.  Any help is appreciated.  Regards.

Hi,
I too would like to know the answer to your question. I don't thnk the answer you got was what you were looking for. I would go to the Digital Vdeo Infrmation Network forums and ask there about which is the best software to convert 60p to 30p. I don't remember off hand how exactly to do it. But it is a little complecated as I recall. People over there will be more than helpful.
I took 720p 60fps footage when I should have taken 30p footage with my Canon 60D camera.
I just hope that in the next IOS6 update that we will be able to import 60d footage. But I am not holding my breath.
I can't see why 60D footage would not be possible on the ipad3. It is the same amount of data bits. 1280x720 60p vs 1920x1080 30p.

    how can I watch Asc.asf video on my iPhone 5

    Of course there is, but I wouldn't have much confidence with this particular website developer.
    YouTube coverted all video to an iPhone compatible format with the IPhone YouTube application, which are streamed to the iPhone.
    The website developer can check the iPhone specifications via Apple's website for the iPhone, which includes video formats supported with the iPhone.

  • How can i delete or clear video from the youtube most viewed?

    How can I delete or clear video from the youtube of "most viewed?"

    The 'most viewed' can't be edited - it is the videos on YouTube that have been watched most, so apart from the video being taken down from YouTube, or other videos getting more viewings, they will remain in that list.

  • How can I get an mp4 video running on iPad Mini?

    How can I get an mp4 video running on iPad Mini, which is already in the iTunes File?

    Pad2, the new iPad Supported Video Formats & Movie Formats
    H.264 video up to 1080p, 30 frames per second, High Profile level 4.1 with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats;
    MPEG-4 video up to 2.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Simple Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps per channel, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats;
    Motion JPEG (M-JPEG) up to 35 Mbps, 1280 by 720 pixels, 30 frames per second, audio in ulaw, PCM stereo audio in .avi file format
    You can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
    Plug the USB flash drive into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie/photo files into the folder. The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov; DSCN0164.jpg).
    Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie/photo files should appear & you can import. (You can not export using the camera connection kit.)

  • How can I watch BBC/ITV player on my iPad

    How can I watch BBC/ITV player on my ipad - someone has told me I need a flash player but there is no such thing on ipad

    BBC iPlayer and ITV Player are both apps in the App Store.
    You can also watch about 50 channels of live TV (including all BBC and ITV channels) if you point Safari at "TvCatchup".
    Tell "somebody" that Flash is not required.

    I just bought splashtop, you have to have your home computer online,and download the pc version.  I have used it ot watch movies and to "go to work" on my ipad.  It controls the desktop through the ipad.  Whiteboard by splashtop does that and more and is on sale.  The education director at the hospital I work at is using that one.
    Splashtop 4.99 remote desktop(or laptop) control. Whiteboard 9.99 is remote control and more 9.99

    As long as the film has been fully downloaded (or synced) to the iPad's Videos app then you should be able to watch it whilst offline.

    It calls both the ipad and iphone when calling the associated email address for the ipad. However, when I call the iphone it does not call the IPAD.
    Thanks for your help

    You cannot stream them to your iPad unfortunately... You can download them however. Go to the iTunes Store app -> tap the purchased button at the bottom right -> tap the view: Music in the top left and select Movies. From there you can download the one you want...

  • How can I play ABSOLUTELY LOSSLESS video on the iPad2?

    Hi everyone! 
    I'm creating some test videos for a project I'm working on.  I have a sequence of png test images that are 1024x768.  I would like to have these images play back on the iPad2 as a video.  The catch is that there needs to be absolutely zero mathematical loss in the final video - each frame should be an exact representation of the associated png image.  This is not an aesthetic requirement, it's a scientific requirement.  I'm doing a study on pixels.  Any suggestions? 
    I've been using the free version of FileApp to load videos onto the iPad and play them through that app.  I've been encoding my lossless video into Quicktime in AfterEffects using a variety of codecs, including Animation and PNG, both of which playback on my PC perfectly lossless-ey, but when I try to play them back on the iPad2 they don't play back at all.  Some other codecs like the H264 or Jpeg get very close, but there are losses in the final version.
    I'm not concerned with file size... I have the 64Gb version and I'm willing to use all of that for this project.
    Any suggestions for video playback apps?  Preferably free so I can test this lossless requirement without wasting some money first.
    Any suggestions for encoders and codec settings?

    Well, if you are not concerned about file size, then you can just encode the videos as APNG and then play the videos with https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/apng/id447928057. All you need to do is put the xyz.apng file on a webserver somewhere and then copy and paste the URL into the bar at the top of the APNG app. The file will then be downloaded and played. Just be aware that a full screen iPad size video is massive and it will tax the IO subsystem to the limit, so the max framerate you will be able to get on an iPad2 will be about 20FPS. In case this was not clear, APNG is basically the same as a series of PNG images, it is completely lossless.

    Press Home and Power at the same time.  You'll hear a shutter sound.  It should now be on your camera roll.
