make sure you have sufficient drive space on your target drive. Make sure you have a minimum of 15% free space on your startup drive. What format is the original quicktime movie?

How do I make a movie for youtube playing music with only a title a transition and a single still?

I want to make videos for youtube show casing music made in Garageband via Imovie, but I am having some problems figuring this out.
So far I have a title and a transitions, but it makes it only last 5.5 seconds...
I want to add a single picture for it to transition to, then show for the remaining duration of the video (which is supposed to be 2:20 long).
How do I do this?

double-click the still in your Project
set time to 2:20:00
the last digits are frames, a 30th/25th of a second ...

FAQ: How do I export a movie for YouTube, Vimeo, iPad, iPhone, or Apple TV?

When you export your movie, choose H.264 as the format and then choose the appropriate YouTube, Vimeo, iPad, iPhone, or Apple TV encoding preset from the Preset menu.
See this video for instructions for using the new and improved encoding presets in Adobe Media Encoder CS5.5:
Adobe Media Encoder Improvements

I figured out one way to do it.
I don't know if it's the easiest.
1. drag the movie from iPhoto into the iTunes movie folder.
2. in iMovie- go to "file- New Event". Name it.
3. go to "file- New Project". Name it.
4. click the iTunes button on right"Show or Hide Music and Sound Effects browser"
5.Scroll down until you see the iTunes icon and expand the triangle if not already expanded to reveal the "Movies" icon. Click on it.
6. Find the movie in the list below and drag it to the new event.
7. edit and/or drag it to the Project window.
Go to "Share- YouTube..." follow the prompts.
It will process the movie and let you post it to YouTube, and give you the option to share it.

Formatting Slideshow movie for YouTube

Hi,
How can I create a slideshow for Youtube? I have a group of photos that I want to use to make a movie, and the process works fine. I export the movie from FCP and then use QuickTime Pro to convert it to an .mp4 movie. It plays well, except that the photos appear distorted and of low quality when playing on Youtube, and there is a black band above and below the movie when it plays.
Any help appreciated....
Patrick

The black surround is because YouTube now accepts 16:9 HiDef video and yours is not in that format.
Ken Stone has a load of articles on prepping video for YouTube, here's one for HiDef:

Failure to upload MPEG-4 QuickTime movie to YouTube

Tried several times, yesterday and today, to upload an MPEG-4 QuickTime movie to YouTube. I created it according to their specs. I emailed them twice in two days and haven't got a reply yet.
This is the Safari message I get after about a minute of what seems like uploading to the YouTube web site—from their upload page:
Safari can’t open the page “http://v168.youtube.com/myvideospost”. The error was: “lost network connection” (NSURLErrorDomain:-1005)
I spoke with Apple tech, Earthlink (ISP) tech, and searched Google with keywords, but still don't know what's going on. I'm hoping YouTube will reply to me. Has anyone else had this problem recently?—and solved it?
(Did you also prepare your upload according to YouTube's specs?)
Thank you,
Morty
eMac Mac OS X (10.4.8) iLife '06 w/iMovie 6.0.3

using
"NSURLErrorDomain:-1005"
as a search term here or at google offers a wide variety of posts.. and "fixes" ...
* use another browser, e.g. Firefox
* reset Safari and clear cache
* set MTU to a lower number .. .(<< don't ask ME! ... somewhere in your network/ethernet settings... )
that error occured me lately while accessing this board ... I thought, some "maintaince failor", tried later - done.
sorry, for being ... more a voodoo priest then a helping hand ..

How to crop a QuickTime movie to delete black top and bottom areas?

How to crop a QuickTime movie? I mean, a ".mov" movie that shows a black area on top and bottom, which I want to delete.
I have tried with iMovie 8.0.5, yet its "Window - Cropping..." to fit, crop and Ken burns does not allow to select the area that I want, which is extra wide.
Thanks.

How to crop a QuickTime movie? I mean, a ".mov" movie that shows a black area on top and bottom, which I want to delete.
Basically, you have two options. 1) You can use an application like MPEG Streamclip (free) which allows you to reset the top/bottom/left/right screen edges (i.e., crop the active viewing area) and then re-compress the remaining content as a new file (as recommended by QTKirk) or 2) if you have QT Pro, you can simply "mask" the player display which crops the display screen to the desired mask dimension and location within the original area. The advantage of the latter work flow is not having to re-compress the file which can be very time consuming. Since the latter method may seem confusing to some, I have prepared a "quickie" tutorial which may be able to "talk" you through the process:

How do I make quicktime movies Fullscreen in iWeb?

How do I make quicktime movies Fullscreen in iWeb? Can anyone help me please?

You have to create a QTL file that opens the QT movie in the player. Based on the settings it opens in Full Screen.

An alternative is to publish your movies to Vimeo and embed the movie in your page. These movies can play full screen.
Or use DivX of Flash Video.

How can i stop my movie for 5, 6 or 7 seconds?

how can i stop my movie for 5, 6 or 7 seconds in actions scrip 2.0 or 3.0

Look at using a stop(); command followed by a setTimeout() function call that ends up calling a function that executes a play command...
stop();
var stoID = setTimeout(startAgain, 5000); // 5000 milliseconds
function startAgain(){
play();

How to compress file 32+ mb for email attachment

how to compress file 32+ mb for email attachment, after I used compress it's still shows 29 mb. Is there another step I could do. I am new with MAC so please forgive if this sound simple and stupid question.

You simply don't attach that file to email. Even if you could cut the size by half, that's still way too big for email. Many mail servers will remove attachments over a certain size, and for most of those that size is below 10 MB. Find another way to share that file, like a web server or Dropbox or something along those lines.

How do I prepare a FCP Quicktime movie for iDVD?

Hi out there, can someone please explaine in detail what I have to do to a FCP Quicktime movie to prepare it for iDVD. Its 12 minutes long and 4.8GB. I tried putting it as is into iDVD and burning a DVD and the quality was bad. Do I have to put it through Compressor? Or, should I make a different kind of Quicktime movie?

Compressor is a program and you want to use it to convert your movie into an mpeg file and an ac3 file. 2 files to drop into your DVD program. Now, I haven't used iDVD so i don't know what it's asking for but. DVDSP is really easy to use if you just wan tto make a DVD without a menu. this requires an mpeg2 file and ac3. this you can make in compressor. in FCP have your timeline with your sequence in it active. FILE>EXPORT>USING COMPRESSOR. in compressor you can use the DVD 90 minute setting to make these two files. you have to check the manual cause it's different on how to do this with diff versions.
once you have your files drop them in DVD SP asset box then drag them in the timeline. delete the menue blue box right click the green track box, select 'first play' build/burn button at the top and you're on your way.
sorry if this seems confusing, but dvd technology is funky. idvd is great for making easy template menus but if you want to just make a playable dvd wihtout menus, DVD SP is the way to go.

Optimizing Quicktime Movies for iWeb 08- HOW?

Hello,
Question about converting a movie I made for my web site uploading to my .Mac account - using iWeb 08.
When the full quality movie is open in Quicktime Pro, and you click on export for web, you get this info box saying this:
In the same folder as this instructional HTML file, QuickTime Pro has placed various versions of your movie optimized for web-delivery. Also in that folder is a reference movie, which selects the best version for your users' various devices and connection speeds. By including this reference movie in your HTML page, you can ensure a quality video experience on your site.
THEN IT GOES ON TO SAY...
Use the following HTML code to embed your movie into your web page.
Important Notes:
•To make your media viewable on the internet, your media assets (movies, poster image) must be placed on a publicly accessable server.
•The URL parameters must be modified if your media assets are served from a different location than your web page.
•The movie URL parameters must always point to the reference movie (Fluid-Cam Test.mov) rather than a source movie.
•The reference movie must be kept in the same folder as the source movies.
•Source movie names cannot be changed, but you can change the name of the reference movie (remember to change it in the HTML code as well).
•Please note, to properly validate as XHTML, the <style> tag and the first <script> tag should be placed within your page's <head> tag.
•Use this code in the <head> of your web page:
(AND THEN THERE IS A BUNCH OF CODE AFTER ALL THIS- WHICH I DIDN'T BOTHER TO TYPE HERE OF COURSE)
There are no instructions (that I can find) explaining where this code goes, which optimizes your movie for various formats. You can't drag and drop this whole folder into an iWeb Movie page.
So where do you copy and paste this code in iWeb, that Quicktime creates from your movie?
Any input is appreciated!
Thanks!

Best way I know is to put the movie into Iphoto, select it, go to "share" and choose to iweb. It will go straight to a new page in iweb which you can rename and include in your site.
