How should i export already h.264 compressed video/audio files after i edit them?

I am recording gameplay footage off computer with a program that compresses the video and audio. After I edit the footage how should i export it? I don't want to lose quality by double compressing it.

No.
You need to explore Compound Clips. This workflow may or may not be of help.
Select an Event with clips in it and press Option+G to make a (blank) compound clip.
Select the Event Browser, create a new Event and call it 'Effects'.
Drag the Compound Clip into this Event.
Right-click the clip and select 'Open in Timeline'.
Select the timeline and press Option+W. This will add a Gap Clip to the timeline.
Select the gap clip and press Ctrl+D then type in the duration you want the clip to be.
Now open a project and select and copy one of the clips with effects etc.
Open the Compound Clip in the Timeline again, select the gap clip and press Option+Cmd+V to paste the effects into your Compound Clip.
This clip is now saved in your Browser and will remain there for you to copy and then paste the effects into any clip in any project.
It's a bit clunky, but it works - and once you learn about Compound Clips, you can work wonders with them. As an example, if you want to add more effects without overwriting the effects in the Compound Clip, simply make the Compound Clip into a Compound Clip (again) and add the effects. They will be added to the original effects.

How to remove first 7 seconds of imported video & audio files

I've imported 2-hour audio & video files (edited in FCP, then taken to Compressor) into my DVDSP project.
Can I now edit out the first 7 seconds of what I imported, before I burn the DVD? If so, how? (I want to remove a title that I should have removed originally in FCP, but didn't. Don't want to wait hours to re-compress the files.)

There is no editing in DVD SP. If you want to edit out the first 7 seconds you will have to do that in FCP.
An alternative is to put a chapter marker at the 7 second spot and then target that. The problems with this is that you might not be able to put the chapter marker on the exact frame you might want, and people can rewind and discover those 7 seconds.

How do I compress an audio file?

Hello,
This is definitely an overloaded home page, but I am doing what I am told. I am working on making some of the images smaller for speed.
http://www.peterspunch.com/
My problem is that the audio works fine on my computer on Safari, but gets cut off on Flock and Firefox. Would a different audio file be more universal to browsers? Or is this just an overload problem? Or should I compress the audio file - its 4MB?
Diloretta

The audio file I see is 745 Kb, which is still a little large for a file being forced on your visitors. You could reduce the sample rate from 44100Hz and/or the bitrate from 128 kb/s.
Is that Jimmy Buffet? Do you have clearance/license to use the music?
You've also got some odd slicing of your images. More judicious use of transparent GIF or PNG files may be useful.

How do I export/import keyboard shortcuts to a text file

How do I export/import keyboard shortcuts to a text file?
It would be nice to export them, edit and/or add to them in a text editor on my iMac, then import them back into iPhone and iPad.

You can backup the bookmarks to a file, then copy that file to the new computer and import them, for details see [[Backing up and restoring bookmarks]].
You can copy more than just the bookmarks. The user data, such as bookmarks and passwords, are stored in the profile folder. You can copy the data manually by copying the contents of the profile folder, for details see [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_backup Profile backup - MozillaZine Knowledge Base] or [[Backing up your information]].
There are some add-ons and utilities that can make this process easier. The first one is the [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/2109/ FEBE] add-on which can be used to copy a profile. Another option is the free [http://mozbackup.jasnapaka.com/ MozBackup] utility.

How do I export iPhoto pictures to a Scandisk in the order I placed them?

How do I export iPhoto pictures to a Scandisk in the order I placed them?

Do I understand correctly? You've manually arranged the photos in an Album, and you wan to have the same arrangement when you export?
Select the pics in the Album and then Photos Menu: Batch Change -> Set Title to Text "John's Birthday", for instance, and tick the box to append a number to each Photo. Now your photos are titled 'John's Birthday 001, John's Birthday 002 ... etc'
Then File -> Export and in the Export dialogue set the Filename to "Use Title"
Sort on Filename in the FInder and you end up with a folder full of images in the same order as the Album in iPhoto.

In the past when I have imported my dslr video/audio files and then my zoom audio files Final Cut Pro has organized them in pairs in my library. For some reason my video/audio and my audio are being organized seperately. How do I fix this? Thanks!

Thank you Russ! Seems as though the timestamp on my audio files was completely incorrect so it placed the files far away from the corresponding video. I've modified the timestamp information and this has helped. The hour/minute information is incorrect but at least now I'm in the ballpark. Thank you!

Exporting slideshow leaves includes only one audio file, leaves off others

I have a slideshow which is fairly long, and uses several songs from an iTunes playlist. When I play the slideshow in iPhoto, the slideshow works perfectly. However, when I export the slideshow, either by exporting to a Quicktime movie or sending to iDVD, the photos export properly, but only the first audio file from the playlist is included in the slideshow. Therefore, when I play it, either in iDVD or Quicktime, the slideshow has audio until the first song ends, then the slideshow has no audio, and is completely silent.
Is anyone else having this problem, and is there a way around it?
Brad

Hi Bradley,
Yes, others are experiencing it and it is a new bug introduced from one of the updates. apple is aware of it and so far no solution has been found.
Only one song exporting with Slideshows
Right now, this seems to be a know problem/bug. There have been some work-arounds. Don't know if the problem is with iPhoto, Quicktime or a combo of both.
-From Bob Worthington: re-ripping the cuts I wanted as background music for the DVD as a single cut in iTunes. I then made a playlist containing the one extended cut of music.
-Old Toad: share to Quicktime from iPhoto and then import the resulting movie into iMovie you can extract and delete the audio from the video and add the two songs to the video and save.
Quicktime Pro-open the movie and bring up the Movie Properties menu window. In the top window select the audio track and delete it.
If you want more than one song you'll have to join them together with iMovie or some other application. Then open that joined file with QT Player. Then do a select all and copy. Now go to the QT window of the movie and select the Edit->Add to Movie menu option. You don't want to scale it because it will change the play speed of the audio unless it's time is exactly the same as the movie.
You could go the other way, open the movie, select all and copy, and then past with scaling to the audio. That will change the speed of the movie and transitions to fit the audio track. In this case the resulting video file will have the name of the audio track file that you started with.
You may have to play with it a bit to get exactly what you want. Be sure to work with copies of all the media files for the project.
-Peter Burtwistle: I opened the Qt movie that iPhoto makes when you export to iDVD and removed the sound track.
Then made a new soundtrack by opening all three songs in QT, then cutting and pasting them together.
Finally use QT Pro's 'Add to Movie" option to add the soundtrack to the original movie.
This worked well and was fast to do too.
-Joe Lombardo: I ended up having to extend the songs by 20 seconds so I brought them all into GarageBand and made some edits. Then I exported them all to iTunes as a single track and used that for the slideshow

This is a silly question, but I cannot fix it! The icons that appear on my photos after I edit them, have gone away. The only way I can see them is in the Grid view. How can I get the icons back on the thumbnail photos of the full gallery that is loaded?

You have likely dragged the size of the filmstrip thumbnails to a small size that prevents Lightroom from displaying the badges. Using your mouse, mouse over the top line of the filmstrip and then drag it supports to increase the size.

How do I export to EDL on one video track.

Hello,
I just finnished editing a music video.
It has over 8 video tracks and now I want to export it to a EDL format but It looks like everything needs to go on 1 video track.
How should I go about it.
Thanks.
D.

Hi Domingo,
exporting to a edl is for use in a online editing suite with a controller like sony BVE 910 or CMX. I have not done this now for years. My beta-recorder is already out of use. As far as I remember you have to export each video track seperately if you really want to remaster the video in a online-suite. There is nothing like a video mixdown similar to audio. But you can try to edit one track after another if you really want to do so and feed your online editor with one edl after the other. If it works properly it will do the editing several times with every edl you load into the editor and in the end you will have your master completed. .

How can I export m2ts footage with 5.1 audio in PP CS5.5?

Dear All!
I have a 90 minutes project which made from 4 sequence. Sequence settings are the followings : AVCHD 1080p 25fps square pixels , 5.1 channel master audio.
I made the sequences from avchd file-s, which recorded with Sony HDR-CX700V with AVCHD 1080p 25fps and Dolby digital 5.1 sound.
Right now I finished the project with lots of effects and imported After effects compositions, and I cannot find any setting to create 5.1 sound.
I have Mainconcept codec suite, but this offer m2ts 1440*1080i settings only.( And I cannot configure the mainconcept codec settings.)
Do you have any idea how can I export the project without any degradation, and with 5.1 audio? The original footages recorded with this properties : H264/AVC - top field first - 22.000 Mbit/sec.
And I use in the project some 720p H264/AVC - progressive - 8.001 Mbit/sec videos.
Please help! Thanks a lot.

You have to consider a couple of things. Mixing 1080 and 720 material is best done in a 720 sequence, because uprezzing will seriously deteriorate quality, unless you accept black borders. That also means exporting a 720 format as maximum, unless again you accept serious quality loss. Whatever the resolution you choose, exporting AVCHD material to anything else than uncompressed, Lagarith or UT will entail a generation loss and thus quality loss. The best export settings are dependent on your delivery medium. DVD, BD or web.
Since you are working in a 1080 sequence, the quality loss of uprezzed 720 material is not a big issue, apparently, so what is the relevancy of 'the same quality' on export when you have already compromised quality?

How can I export the query result into access(*.mdb) file?

Dear all:
I want to export the query result displayed in jsp into excel file
and access file. And I have exported the result into excel format successfully, only one line should be added in the head of Jsp:
<%@ page contentType="application/vnd.ms-excel; charset=gb2312" %>
But how can I export it in access(*.mdb) file? I have replaced "excel"
with "access". But it can't achive my goal.
What should I do to achieve my goal?
Thanks!

The only reason your Excel export works is that Excel knows how to interpret comma separated values as an input file format. Access has no such beast.
If you absolutely must provide info in an mdb, one solution would be to create an ODBC datasource pointing to an empty mdb, then push data into it using the jdbc:odbc bridge, then make a copy of the file and stream it down to the browser. You may run into some ugly file locking items here - set the ODBC connection so it is not shared, and that might help.
This one is going to be ugly.
I suppose another approach would be to write a simple VB applicatin that uses automation to create an MDB, then stream that file down to the browser from your servlet. That would almost certainly be faster than the ODBC approach.

How could I export a sqlplus query to a .txt file?

Hi,
I have an Oracle 10g database running on a linux e3 server.
I have generated a SQL query using sqlplus on the server site, so the result is under the SQL>
How could I export it to a .txt?
Thanks a lot!
Any advice is highly appreciated!

Hi, Qian,
In SQL*Plus, say "SPOOL filename", and all the output that appears on your screen will also be written to filename, until you say "SPOOL OFF".
Look up SPOOL in the SQL*Plus manual for more details.
