How do I export a movie using a different format (iMovie 2013)

Title question. I can only seem to export my movie using .mp4 and I've seen on youtube using previous versions of iMovie being able to change the format...
I use a Sony DSC-HX20V to capture my footage which formats the videos in AVCHD and it records in an image quality of 50p. I want to also know how to import these videos onto a 4th generation iPod Touch and which format will support the device better. Thank You.

Although I don't use it myself, saving to Theater creates versions for all sorts of devices including iPod Touches.
iMovie 10 help says:
"When you add a movie, trailer, or clip to the Theater, iMovie creates versions of your movie tailored for local playback (1080p HD), playback on an iOS device (720p HD), and web streaming (480p SD)."

  • How do I export FCP movie to a WMV format (Windows Media Player friendly)?

    I am puzzled. How can I export FCP movie to a WMV format or Windows Media Player friendly?
    Thanks in advance.

    You need a third party app to do this... AVI is the only format that you can export from FCP that's windows media friendly... WMF's can be exported with flip4mac... http://www.flip4mac.com Probably the best of the apps...

  • How do I export a .MOV frame as a PNG?

    How do I export a .MOV frame as a PNG? Currently, I can only seem to export as a .PCT through "Export Movie to Picture", even when I select "Use: PNG".
    Currently, the workaround I use is to export using "Export Movie to BMP", and then converting to PNG with an image editor (but this would be unnecessary if QuickTime is capable of a direct conversion to PNG).

    It doesn't seem to be a simple as simply changing the extension.
    I ran into this problem when trying to masquerade a QT pct file as a png file as a preview for a flash video. When embedded in the flash player, it would not appear in any browser. (BTW --- It appeared just fine as a plain img in any browser.)
    Here was my rather specific fix, which shows that simply changing extensions doesn't always fool every application:
    1. Open the png file in a text editor (in my case, emacs) which will let you edit binaries as ASCII text.
    2. Look through the file. Assuming that non-ASCII characters are shown in octal with a preceding \, you'll see the following
    \377\377\211PNG
    3. Delete everything until just after the two \377 characters, so that the file starts with \211PNG. (If you are editing in hex, look for ff ff 89 50, and delete up through the ff ff.)
    4. Save the file.
    After doing this, it embedded just fine.
    So.... simply swapping the pct extension for png isn't a true fix in all ways. I'm guessing that pulling off the start of the file tears off the wrapper alluded to above.

  • How do I rent a movie using money in my iTunes account.  I had to enter at the iTunes gift card code to open the account, but now I can't figure out how to use this money to rent a movie; I opened the account several months ago but never used the money.

    How do I rent a move using moneyin my iTunes account.  I had to enter the iTunes gift ard code to open the account several months ago, but never purchased anything with it.  When I entered this code to rent a movie, the response was that it was redeemed.  What am I doing wrong?

    If you've already redeemed the card onto your account then its amount should be on your account - a card can only be redeemed once.
    To rent a film, find the film in the store and (if the film studio has made it available as a rental in your country) click on its Rent button. If you are beig prompted to review your account and enter credit card details then see if this post from mountaingoatgirl lets you do so without entering card details : https://discussions.apple.com/message/24303054 . If that doesn't work then you should be able to remove your card's details after entering them.
    As long as you account's balance covers the rental cost then only that should be charged. How purchases are billed : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5582
    When making purchases, content credits are used first, followed by Gift Certificate, iTunes Card, or Allowance Account credits; your credit card or PayPal account is then charged for any remaining balance.

  • How do I export a Movie to Quicktime? And do I need to?

    Hello, how do I export a Movie in iMovie 11 to Quicktime, when the option is not listed?
    I have created some short videos with Lavelier Line6 mic, which apparently records your voice in stereo on one track, I am told (although I can't see stereo tracks anywhere within iMovie project, it looks like one track below the picture - but then I wouldn't know what to look for as I'm new to this!).
    I need to, I am told, export the final movie to Quicktime, in order to create a mono track rather than stereo.  I can't see how to do this, as Quicktime is not an option in my Share menu (facebook etc is there, but not Quicktime).
    Could someone advise me whether I need to do this at all?  Is a movie soundtrack automatically converted to mono if there is only one track?
    (Also, there is a small amount of hiss in the recording, which I have removed with background noise reduction, but could that hiss come from the unused track, does anyone know?  And if so, what is the best way to get rid of that track?  Of course, it may not be that at all!   I don't really want to get into complicated removal of audio tracks into other software and then readding to the picture, if I can avoid it.)
    Thanks for any advice you can give.  Fran x

    Use "Share to File".

  • How do I tape a movie using my vcr

    I have played many vcr tapes on this tv.....I wanted to tape a movie tonight but do not know how to do that
    Does anyone know how I can tape a movie using my vcr

    You would need to first ensure your cable is connected through your VCR rather than directly to your TV. Your VCR manufacturer should have instructions on how to record.

    Hi cortiz58,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    What version of iMovie are you working with?  Is your end goal that you need to play the file on a Windows computer, or is it that you need to burn the file to DVD?
    See this link for tips to re-wrap your file for Windows:
    How to create a video for playback with Windows/XBox/PS3/… etc?: Apple Support Communities
    https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-5781
    If you export the iMovie file as a .mov file, you can play it in iTunes for Windows on your PC.
    If you want the ability to burn to DVD, then you may consider downloading the free 30 day trial of our professional video application.  Final Cut Pro X can import your iMovie project and burn it to DVD.

    Many home internet services do have caps, at least in the UK, and I suspect elsewhere to.  My current service is capped at 100GB/month for downloads, though I rarely use that much. 
    I recall a post from someone a few months ago who said that during the course of watching/rewatching a single HD rental they'd used over 20GB of their monthly usage allocation which is a significant chunk if you do have a cap.
