How do I convert video's using quicktime

I can't figure out how to convert videos to quicktime so I can put them on my ipod with sound.Can anybody explain this to me?

QuickTime expects video files with seperate video and audio tracks, but many MPEG formats used a muxed (multiplexed) single track that contains both. Therefore, iTunes & the iPod (both of which use QuickTime) only show the video and no sound.
One way to work around this is to use MPEG Streamclip to convert the files to fix this issue...

  • I have videos stored on an external hard drive. How do i convert them to use in iMovie?

    I have videos stored on an external hard drive. How do i convert them to use in iMovie?

    Well you first determine the file types iMovie can import, then you determine the file types of the movies themselves and look for the best format to change copies of them into so they can be imported into iMovie.
    Once you have determined the best video format for your needs and that iMove accepts, you'll have to find software to convert one format into another.
    I'm lazy, so I use my 17" HD 1080i screen to playback the video in it's native format and use SnapZ Pro X to screen record that into Quicktime format that iMovie certainly accepts.
    Not everyone has a 17" 1080i HD screen nor the money to buy SnapZ Pro X though.

  • Converting video for use on Sidekick

    Good evening.
    This might not be the right place to post this, but here goes...
    I have a 24" iMac and would like to convert videos for use on my Sidekick LX 2009. The info on the Sidekick says it will play 3GP or MP4 (simple profile). I been trying to convert using VisualHub and HandBrake but to no luck. Any suggestions on how I can do a conversion, or what settings I need in these programs, or some other program to use?
    Thanks for the help.

    Try using MPEG Streamclip to convert the videos; more information on this issue is available in this article.

  • How can I preview video files in quicktime

    How can I preview video files in quicktime by click on the space bar like i use to with leopard? 
    I like to pull up all of my video files and arrowing down and hitting the space bar and previewing them. 
    I cannot do that with all of my video files just some of the video files are able to be previewed.
    Some of the files show a thumb of the video and some just show the quicktime logo are other logos
    I am running the latest Lion
    Thanks.

    You need to investigate BLOB = Binary Large Objects.
    Start with Google where you will find plenty of info to start with.
    Next time, you'd better mentioned the OS and Oracle version (4 digits) that you are using.

    how can i convert video files from my mac to watch them on my iphone?, how can i convert video files to watch them on my iphone?

    Turns out the answer to that question changes if you ask it more than 4 times, so ask it again....
    The answer depends on the type of video files you want to convert.  If they are DRM protected commercial videos, no help can be given here.  Google.

  • How can I convert video in a WMA format to play in QuickTime Pro?

    I have installed my QuickTime Pro, but cannot play any of my videos that I already have stored on my computer. They are all in the WMA format. Is there anyway I can convert these files to play in Quicktime Pro? I also cannot figure out how to download a video from my digital video camera into QuickTime Pro. Can you help me with this? Additionally, I cannot figure out how to download from my digital camera into QuickTime Pro. All of these functions I would like to do, are so I can take these videos & pictures and download them to my IPOD. HELP - thanks Mike Mirsch

    Hi again Mirsch,
    I have Mac OS X and I have Quicktime 7.1 Pro.
    I know that you can record a movie by making a new movie recording. Use the fire-wire connection to do this and have you camera in playback or deck mode. This is probably not the best way to import video to your pc. I say this because it might not be a lossless ingest of video (depending on your quicktime preferences>recording settings.
    Try saving your dv video onto your pc using a program like premier (i use iMovie and Final Cut Express).
    Good luck,

  • Video conversion using Quicktime Pro (Which Export Settings?)

    I tried converting videos (.avi) to .m4v so that I can play them on my iPod Touch. However I am having problems.
    iPod Touch documentation says that the following video file formats are supported by iPod touch:
    A H.264 (Baseline Profile Level 3.0)
    B MPEG-4 (Simple Profile)
    My question is:
    1. Can anyone show me how can i covert to those format using Quicktime Pro? And please do let me know which exact EXPORT setting I am supposed to use. I used EXPORT> Movie to iPod . It did not seem to work.
    Thanks in Advance.

    I use it on a 24" iMac C2D running at 2.33GHz with 3GB of RAM, and it's much quicker than a regular QT export and a bit quicker than VisualHub. I won't quote a time to encode a "2 hour movie" because there's a lot more factors involved like resolution and original file encoding but the device is faster than using the twin cores.
    No, it won't work with Handbrake, nor VisualHub for that matter. It acts as a plug-in (albeit hardware) for QT and any application that uses QT for export can utilise the turbo.264.
    One other (for me big) advantage is that Elgatos own software for using the turbo.264 supports AppleScript and hence Automator.

  • How can we convert .mov ( implemented by quicktime APi)  to .WAV file

    Hi,
    How can we convert one .MOV audio file (generated by quicktime API) to .WAV audio file ( need LINER - encoding format).
    Here I dont know the encoding format of .MOV audio input file.
    regards,
    Rams

    I wonder why this happens? The "unable to handle.." really does come out twice. Is it because the inputfile.mov which I wanna convert comes from the merging oftwo wave files? If so, then how can I convert this into single wave file? Thank you.That is a weird message, but yes, the .mov file probably stored the 2 original WAV files as 2 tracks of data, rather than 1 track. So whenever it's trying to transcode to a WAV file, it fails to transcode both tracks.
    As for fixing it... I dunno. I know that JavaSound can mix two WAV files at the sample-level, so it actually mixes the sound instead of adding 2 tracks to a file...but I don't know why that's giving you those error messages, unless perhaps it's trying to transcode the video track into an audio track (perhaps the code isn't smart enough to handle transcoding a video file into an audio file? You'd have to check the code to see if that's the case...)

  • On the newest itunes, how do you convert videos or songs to be the right version for my ipod?

    on the previous version, you just had to go to the advanced tab and there was a convert to my ipod/ipad/itouch option.
    where is it on the newest version? or is there just not one on this version?

    iTunes should automatically convert the songs to the format compatible for iPod. If not, follow through this:
    iTunes: How to convert a song to a different file format
    As for videos:
    Verifying iTunes video conversion and video syncing using sample Quick Time files
    You can also use, Handbreak (mainly use to rip movies from DVD) to convert videos to a specific format so specific devices.
