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...

  • QuickTime .mov plays upside-down in Windows Media Player

    I know the cause of this: If you record using an iPhone with the volume buttons pointed at the ceiling, the resulting video plays upside-down in Windows Media Player. QuickTime is smart enough to correct and rotate automatically. Not so WMP. I have several clips that were recorded with the volume buttons pointed up. If I use QuickTime Player to rotate the clips, then they are correct when viewed in WMP, but upside-down in QuickTime Player!
    Is there any way to fix these clips so they are right-side up in both worlds? Or is there no choice but to re-record everything with iPhone's volume buttons pointed at the floor?

    Your assumptions are only partially correct. When you record the clip on your iPhone, the clip is recorded just as you see it in the WMP—i.e., upside down. What the iPhone does is records an addition file value that tells Apple media players which edge to display as the "top" during playback. Since third-party media players ignore this value, they display the clip in its original orientation which, in your case is upside down. When you flip the video orientation using QT 7 Pro, you're telling QT media players to play the file with an "upside down" orientation. By exporting the "flipped" orientation, you are, in fact, re-encoding the original "upside down" to a "right-side up" display but simultaneously telling all Apple media players to play the file upside down.

    Actually, you can do either. That is, you can either "fix" the original recordings or re-record the the clips in a manner that avoids this problem. To "fix" your original files, simple open the files in an Apple media player (like QT 7 Pro) and export the files. The player will note the current "top" orientation and re-encode the content using the current display orientation for both QT and third-party players.

  • 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)."

  • I have purchased a movie and downloaded it and windows media player on my PC will not play it

    i have recently purchased a movie from itunes, and have downloaded onto my PC, but i would really like to watch on my TV which in internet capable is this possible?

    You cannot play a movie from the iTunes Store in anything but iTunes or QuickTime Player or on an Apple device. You'll need to connect your computer to your TV to watch that movie there.

  • Exporting to Windows Media Player

    Whenever I try to export a movie from Quicktime Pro to Windows Media Player it will only create a 30 second clip. Why won't it export the whole file? Thanks for any info/tips!

    You have only the playback version of flip-4-mac, free. To encode you need to buy the component that allows you to export to WMP.

  • Can't run some MOV in Windows Media Player

    I find that some of my MOV files will run in Windows Media Player and some will not. I'm not sure what is causing this and don't know where to start. The only things I know that is different is that in the details the MOV's that won't play don't have any height or width. There is no error I can find.

    I generate a large number of MOV files every week for the media company I work  for. 100% work as expected and have for some time now. We spent months finding the right variables to produce a file type that was optimal for the applications we use to display multiple full motion content. All these files were only a portion of the screen with a banner running below (weather, news ticker, etc.). Recently I was asked to produce MOV files that take up the entire screen. 0% of them work and I have only changed the screen size. I have been converting them to WMV's to make it work but that is extra work and I don't have the time to maintain two sets of content for my clients and my clients don't want to handle two sets either. I think I am missing a setting or something that is causing the full screen movies to output with no height or width.

  • 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 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.

    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.
