How do you join multiple video files?

I have multiple video files, all encoded with same codec, together so that I have 1 single large file. How do I do it with FCP? Ive tried doing it, but for some reason the final file is twice as large as the sum of the individual files...
Thanks!!

When you export an FCP edit, you get one file from many.
If the individual files are all sequenced on one track, with no gaps between them,
AND everything is all the same codec, the output file will be approx. the same size
as the sum of the input files.
You might be accidentally using a different codec, however. Verify by opening
a source clip and your export clip in QuickTime Player, and selecting Get Info.
Compare pixel dimensions, frame rate, etc.

How do you import a video file that has extension gp into i movie. also rotating video

How do you import a video file that has the extension gp into ivmovie? Also how do you rotate a video . (the video was taken from a phone.)

Hi, your video file needs to be converted to eg. a .mov or .mp4 file before iMovie will recognise. I use 4Media MP4 converter and it works excellent.
For the rotating I do not have an answer, but if you would manege you would end up with a very narrow image either way.
Good luck

How do I join multiple mp3 files into one mp3 file?

Hello,
I have multiple mp3 files that I would like to join into one mp3 file and to use it as an audio book. This explains how to do it, but in iTunes 12, I do not see an option called "Part of a Compilation" option.
Is there a way to do it in iTunes without installing a new app?
Thank you.

Eugene,
Those instructions, if I read them correctly, are about how to collect several MP3s into a single audiobook. They will not create a single continuous MP3.
iTunes does not have the ability to combine multiple MP3s into a single MP3. The best it can do is if you burn them to audio CD and then rip back with "Join Tracks" enabled. The better way is to use an audio editor such as Audacity, or a special purpose combing tool such as MP3 Joiner.

How do you change multiple 'Video Kind' values at once?

Hello,
first of all, sorry if this has already been asked, but I tried searching for a straight answer in here and in other forums without any luck..
.. but I was wondering if there is a way to select multiple videos, and change their video kind to something else, all at once(eg. from Movie to Music Video)...
...When I select a group of videos and click get info, it doesn't give me the option to change the video kind, so I've had to change each one, one at a time, (which gets very tiresome :P)...
...so is there a way to change multiple 'Video Kind' values at once, or should I pray that it becomes available in the next update of iTunes?
Pentium 4 3.0 ghz Windows XP

You can't do it right now. Wait for the next update, and hope it's there.
For the moment, I suggest selecting Get Info on one song, changing the setting, then hitting the next button at the bottom to go right to the Get Info for the next song. You can rapidly change lots of these that way.

How do you burn a video file not compatible with quicktime?

Hello all,
I am very new at this so I apologize if the solution is very simple - i just can't seem to work this iDVD thing...
I've searched through the forums and can't seem to find exactly what I need, please point me in the right direction if a solution has already been posted elsewhere.
Okay, so my problem is trying to burn movies to DVD. I don't actually have to use iDVD, but it's the only solution i've come up with. My problem is when I add a movie file (lets say, something that will ONLY OPEN with VLC), and press preview, no movie files show up... but when i put in a video file that will play with quicktime, the preview works fine.
So i suspect the preview wont play because the file is not compatible with quicktime.
have any of you tried this? All i want is to be able to play a downloaded movie on the dvd player downstairs
regards,
Peter

iDvd is not a general burn utility. However, there's a very good chance (whatever that file is) that Toast will burn it to Dvd-R. And if not (which is unlikely) then do as suggested already and use Mpegstream Clip. It's 100% free! However Mpeg 2 playback component may run you a few bucks (if needed).
Or the alternative is to invest hundreds of dollars in Apple software and use apps like FCP and DVDSP (or FCS) along with QT Pro. Nine times out of ten this combination tends to work well ... but it ain't cheap (not to mention a rather steep learning curve).

How do you add multiple videos to one single timeline in encore cs6

please need assistance, i have 10 separate video files that i am trying to burn onto as few of dvd dl's as possible

I would either put each video on its own timeline or use Premiere to edit them together. Often adding more than one video to a timeline in Encore does not work.

How do you make a video file acceptable to Captivate 7?

I tried to attach a video and although the video was an .mp4, Captivate wouldn't allow it. I downloaded the FLV Converter, but it still won't accept the file.

This is what I did:
1. I added a "Caption and Content Right" slide to my presentation,
2. Then I clicked the "Insert Video Object" link on the new slide, selected the video from my computer (by browsing to find it) and
3. Clicked OK and got the following error message: Failed to load the video file. The file path or URL may be invalid.
So I downloaded the FLV Converter and converted my .MOV file to an .MP4 file and it still wouldn't load and I got the same error message.

How do you open multiple binary files and plot them all on the same graph?

I have three different binary files and I want to plot all 3 of them onto a graph.
I am familiar with opening and reading a single binary file. (Thanks to the help examples!)
But to do multiple numbers at the same time? I was thinking of putting 3 different 'reading from binary file' blocks with the rest of the 'prompts', 'data type', etc.. and then connecting them on the same wire.
However, I got into a mess already when I tried to read one .bin file to dynamic data type --> spectral measurements --> graph waveform. The error was Not enough memory to complete this operation... Why is that? That didnt happen in the help example "Read Binary File.vi"... Has it got something to do with the dynamic data type?
Thank you for your time.
Jud~

Have a look at the image below and attached VI. Simply enter the different paths into the PathArray control.

How do you find multiple original files in itunes? Many threads no answer

I tried looking through a lot of topics that had similar problems but haven't run across an answer yet. I am trying to locate original files for itunes. The library is directed to an external HD. The files are in the HD and I can 'find' them one at a time. As with others on this forum, I don't want to do it individually. Any one know an easy way to point to the music folder for all the titles?.
I actually have the whole library on a travel drive as well and it seems to find them there. If the travel drive is unplugged, then it cannot find the original. I'm guessing that there is a path that needs to be followed and yet in the advanced prefs it is pointing correctly.

*Don't move any media* until your library is working reliably.
My experience is that you can move the "library" files (outside the red box) anywhere and provided the "content" (inside the red box) stays put iTunes will find the files. You can also move the library as a whole, "library" & "content", when nested as shown. Typically when people run out of room they follow a guide which explains how to relocate the content only using iTunes to manage the shift. This has two drawbacks, first iTunes can sometimes fail to complete the operation leading to an unstable library and second it complicates things when unxpected system changes occur.
You might find your existing library and content will reconnect if you edit the location of the iTunes Media folder in preferences to the current location, close iTunes and reopen.
iTunes 9 will work perfectly well with files in the older layout. If you "upgrade" to *iTunes Media Organisation* it should reorgainse the files, but similar caveats obtain. If iTunes crashes while moving the files about (as has heppened to others posting here) then repairing things is complicated. The automated process also fails to rename *iTunes Music* to *iTunes Media*
Again, from my own tests and when properly nested, iTunes will accept the renaming of the *iTunes Music* folder as *iTunes Media* and update the iTunes Media folder preference automatically. If that works and you then close & reopen iTunes and everything still works normally, you can try pushing an Artist folder into iTunes\Media\Music. I think it works, but I manage the structures inside iTunes Media manually & I don't have time to test it just now. If iTunes doesn't llike any step you take just put things back where the were. You can always let iTunes manage the iTunes Media Organsiation upgrade if you have a decent backup and can restore.

How do you compile multiple class files in a unix cmd prompt?

I have been using Java for a few years now, but for some reason I have a course that requires us to compile/run and hand-in our java assignments using Unix...
I know how to compile a simple program on unix with a single source file, but how the heck do you compile and run a program with say... 2 or more sources files linked together?
I really doubt the answer is just type
javac java1.java
javac java2.java
javac java3.java
and then running the source file with the main in it.
Hopefully someone here can help me.
Thanks
Roger

okay, well I took some time to read up online how to do this and I guess i'll answer my own post just in case someone else wants to know the answer.
2 ways I found were:
1)For example, you can list all of the source file names in a file named sourcefiles. This file might look like:
MyClass1.java
MyClass2.java
MyClass3.java
You could then run the compiler with:
% javac @sourcefiles
2)Or if all the files are in the same directory you can do this:
This example compiles all the source files in the package greetings.
% ls
greetings/
% ls greetings
Aloha.java GutenTag.java Hello.java Hi.java
% javac greetings/*.java
If that is confusing to read I found all the answers from this webpage:

When converting dvds to ipod, how do you combine many video files into one?

Hello everyone! When i convert dvds to Ipod format (on windows using videora) the converter seperetly re-encodes severeal (about 4) .99 Gig files into smaller ipod videos. each file is about 30 minutes long, and i was wondering if all of them could be converted into one 2 hour movie file(star wars III if you're wondering). If there is a free way to do this (not quicktimePro)I would find that extreemly helpful.

As TSN has indicated we have no idea what program you are using, other than you posted in the Acrobat forum. In Acrobat you go to File > Create > Combine (varies with version of Acrobat). You can also open one and then use the pages>Insert to add the others.

How can you convert multiple PDF files at once to PDF/A-1b files

I support individuals who on occasion have to submit a mass of files to a court and the requirement is that the files be in PDF/A format. Most are scanned files lacking the requisite structure to become PDF/A-1a files. So as I convert or resave files, I need to be able to specify that they be converted to the PDF/A-1b standard. And since it may involve over 100 files, it would be very inefficient to do so individually, file by file. Could this be done via an Action Wizard sequence? Could a script be written in Java that go through such a process, specifically choosing a PDF/A standard? Any insights would be appreciated.

PDF/A-1a is very easy to automate in Acrobat XI Pro, indeed the compliance code was rewritten specifically with this in mind. Test Screen Name is correct that PDF/A-1b can't be realistically automated due to the complexity of tagging, but that's not your concern.
In Acrobat XI Pro, create a new Action with no functional steps in it, then add the Save step.
Click 'Settings' and change the output format to "Export File(s) to Alternate Format"
Choose PDF/A from the list. It doesn't say so, but that's A-1b.
I suggest using the file renaming feature so you're not overwriting the originals (e.g. append "_A1B")
Save the Action and run it.
Files with security, distributed forms, etc. can't be converted but the Acrobat engineering team claim that everything which can possibly be shoehorned into PDF/A will always succeed. In previous versions of Acrobat it often failed when it encountered things like iffy XMP data.
