How to convert a quick time movie I made with my Nikon D7000 to a mpg file so I can send it out by whatsapp

I am using windows and the program i have is adobe premiere elements 11

daphne and paul
What still and video formats does Whatsapp support? I ask because I am wondering why you want to convert from .mov to .mpg?
If you need to a file with MPEG2 video compression with the .mpg file extension, in Premiere Elements 11 you would go to Publish+Share/Computer/
MPEG and, for Presets, select one that matches your requirements.
I have gone to Whatsapp web pages and see nothing about formats - - I do see mention of sending as attachments and a 16 MB limit for each video sent.
Is the file size limit what you are trying to address by using a .mpg instead of a .mov file? If this product supports .wmv files, you will get your smaller file size
with the file as .wmv....in Premiere Elements 11, Publish+Share/Computer/Windows Media and then set Presets (regular or Advanced settings) to match
the file requirements.
We can fine tune the above with more information about the product and your sharing goals.
Thanks.

    how can i convert a quick time movie file to a cd that will play in a car stereo?

    In quicktime, I would try File -> Export -> Audio. It will create an audio file. Then drop it onto your playlist into  iTunes. Burn the list from itunes with File -> Burn to disk    and then select Audio CD.
    If you have Quicktime  7 it should be easier and export to AIFF directly

  • How do you import quick time movies?

    I downloaded a clip from a stock video company, and it does not want to import into Final Cut Pro.

    Open the clip in QuickTime. Open the Inspector. Post a screenshot of what's reported.

  • Cannot open Quick Time movies in iLife 11

    I got my first digitized Super8 films back on an external hard drive, 1 TB. They were converted to Quick Time movies 1280x720,
    Codecs: Component Y' CbCr 10bit 4:2:2 ( I have no idea what this all means). All I had asked was to get them in .mov files. Quick Time movies seems to be something different than .mov files.
    What can I do to open these Quick Time movies and to edit them in iLife 11?
    Would appreciate if somebody could help me .

    The information about the codec in Final Cut Express is at http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3523
    I have a lot of old Super8 films and decided to get them digitized. After that I intend to discard the old analog films and keep two copies of these old Super8 movies on external hard drives. Therefore I am looking for the best possible quality at a reasonable price.
    The first batch last year was digitized to what they called uncompressed .mov files and could be easily imported and edited in imovie.
    For the second batch (another service) I decided to go HD in .mov files, again uncompressed (the HD quality 1280x720 seems to be remarkably better) What I got are these Quick Time movies that I cannot open in Quick Time and imovie does not let me import these Quick Time movies, whereas the uncompressed .mov files last year were a breeze to handle. What's the difference between 'uncompressed' .mov files vs. Quick Time 'uncompressed' that I cannot open in imovie.
    Now you are pointing out that FCE does not let me edit uncompressed QT files. How do I convert to .mov or MPEG Streamclip?
    Would I purchase Final Cut Express only to be able to open those movies in Quick Time?
    Feels like I am at the low end of the learning curve.
    Appreciate all help I can get for my project.

  • File type/quick time movie file

    My iTunes library used to have a preponderance of mp3 files. Now these seem to have been converted to Quick Time movie files. This might have occurred during an update. What happened and what does it mean.
    Many thanks,
    Wells

    Wells,
    Unfortunately the page you mention (http://www.cminow.org/itunesapplescriptfixer.html) will not load.
    Give it a couple more hours or try:
    http://www.cminow.com/itunesapplescriptfixer.html
    That's my site, and I switched the IP address about four hours ago, and the DNS is probably still pointing to the wrong address. For some reason, the ".com" address changed over really fast (at Comcast anyway), but the ".org" one didn't.
    Here's the AppleScript:on open badfiles
    repeat with i in badfiles
    set the item_info to info for i
    --Change "mp3" to "mp2" in the following line for MP2 files:
    if (name extension of item_info is "mp3") and (folder of item_info is false) then
    tell application "Finder"
    --Change "MPG3" to "MPG2" in the following line for MP2 files:
    set file type of i to "MPG3"
    set creator type of i to "hook"
    end tell
    end if
    end repeat
    end open
    Just copy and paste that into the Script Editor in your AppleScript folder in Applications. Save it as an application. Then find one of the files that's giving you problems and drag it onto the application. It should change the type and creator and iTunes should be happy.
    In order to avoid this in the future, just download the MP3s directly onto your hard drive by control-clicking or right-clicking on the link to the MP3. Choose the menu item that downloads to disk. In Safair, it's "Download Linked File". That avoids the QuickTime Browser plugin, which is what gives it a type of "MPEG" and creator of "TVOD" instead of "MPG3" and creator of "hook", which is what iTunes is happiest with.
    Let me know if any of this wasn't clear, and I'll try to explain it better...

  • Converting Quick Time Movie to MP3 in iTunes

    In iTunes version 4.9 Quick Time Movies converted to MP3 files without loss of audio quality. After upgrading to iTunes 5.0.1 and Quick Time 7.0.2 the conversion results in a great deal of static. Can anyone suggest a fix?

    Hi affilgraph,
    Yes, it can be done. First, go to iTunes preferences, choose "Advanced", click on the "Import" Tab and select "MP3 encoder" next to "Import Using". Close the window. Now select the files in questions, go to the "Advanced" menu and choose "Convert selection to MP3". However, if your files are already encoded to AAC this will not decrease the size of your library significantly AND you will lose sound quality. In addition, converting your library in one go might bring your computer to its knees risking data loss. So, I would recommend buying a bigger HD instead.

  • I'm getting artifacts and noise when I converted a dv file to a dv quick time movie . HELP

    I am trying to create a dv quick time movie with a resolution of 576x 256, 16 bit from a avi file that is 720x480 millions of color . When I have done this in after effects and made a dv quick time movie it is very noisy (both image and background). I am stymied. Tried to use thenoise effects- and blurring effects to no satisfaction. ANyone out there have any suggestions???? I need immediate help

    which codec are you suggesting
    If Stan's right and that has been asked for by the client, use that.  If not, I like both the Lagarith codec and the UT codec.  Both are lossless and will preserve maximum quality.
    are you talking about doing this in AF or Premiere Pro
    Either way works.

  • How to improve the quality of the quick time movie file

    When I press command + option + enter, the graphics looks very good but when I look at the quick time mov I saved, its so bad. It's fine if I 'drag' the quick time window to the smallest but when I look at it in full screen mode, the picture is so bad... What can I do to improve the quality?
    Please give me step by step instrustion
    Flash CS4 I am using, action script 3.0

    The text in your original Flash movie is a vector representation.  The text is drawn to the screen using a mathematical structure that is resolution independent and so the text will look crisp and sharp regardless of the enlargement or reduction of the image. When you take this Flash movie and export it as a compressed video file using the Quicktime file format, you are turning that vector image into a raster image. The compressor that you choose when exporting the file to Quicktime takes the text as it sits on the stage, at whatever that stage size is, and records the pixels. These pixels are then compressed by one means or another to produce a manageable file that can be played back in a linear method using the Quicktime player.
    In other words, there's a lot going on in that export. Flash works best when it can work with just vector artwork. Flash is a runtime playback tool. The Flash file is stored as a set of instructions for the Flash player to execute when the user plays the file. Quicktime is a file format. The Quicktime player reads the comressed file and decompresses that file as it plays. It is a linear process. It starts at the beginning and goes until it stops. Quicktime's compressors take the original content and compress that content by storing the information about the pixels that make up the file. Quicktime, and all of the other video file wrappers, play back best when the final file is played at the same size and frame rate as the original. Like any pixel based image, the quality of the image degrades as it is enlarged.
    Some compressors can provide a better quality image when enlarged, some don't. There is no 1,2,3 for creating great QT from Flash. You'll need to work through the compromises of original stage size, video compressor, audio compressor, output size, frame rate, color depth, video keyframing, etc. What works very well for one file will work less well for another file.

  • What is Quick Time movie anyways - continuing

    Thank you David,
    Thank you guys all for your support.
    That explains it all. It also raises another question, what is the most universal codec which would maintain the quality? Apparently is is Motion Jpeg. But how can I convert my HDV video to QT compressed with Motion Jpeg? I had tried to find settings in Compressor, but I couldn't find any Motion Jpeg settings..I have only find Photo Jpeg??
    But let's say, that I will take that HDV video from my HDV 1080 i 60 timeline and
    export it USING QUICK TIME CONVERSION:
    Format QUICK TIME MOVIE and in OPTIONS I go to:
    VIDEO SETTINGS and choose Photo Jpeg as my COMPRESSION TYPE
    Now, what will the resulting file be? Photo Jpeg Quick Time?
    I apologize for being confused that much and thank for your patience.

    Yes, the file would be a QuickTime movie using the Photo JPEG codec.
    Photo JPEG is almost the same as Motion JPEG, and it's a good choice
    for disk playback performance. For example, if you are editing
    several video streams for a multicam edit, and want to do an offline version,
    FCP will make Photo JPEGS.
    Here is some more information on the Photo JPEG codec:

  • How to create uncompressed Quick Time from my sequence?

    I edited a sequence from a Quick Time Movie conversion. I have to send a file of my sequence in the highest quality for TV. How can I export it without compressing it?
    The sequence Settings are: Vid Rate: 25fps, Frame Size: 1024x576, Compressor DV-PAL, Pixel Aspect Square.
    The Audio is 48.0 KHz, 16-bit Integer

    If you converted the DVD to DV/PAL, how did you end up with that screen size? 1072x576? That's not the DV/PAL resolution preset.
    I used a tutorial and selected 720x576 (DV-PAL) for Frame Size.
    is the FOOTAGE that size? If so, why is your sequence not?
    the original filming was done in HD.
    That is moot. The original filming was then burned to DVD...and you ripped that. Far from ideal conditions. HD, compressed (highly compressed) to DVD, then ripped to DV? Compression on top of compression. I'll be amazed if it passes muster for broadcast TV.
    If it was shot in HD, why didn't you get the actual source footage?
    What can I do with what I have for it to play on TV please?
    Get it properly formatted to 720x576. Might have an online editor work on this too...someone trained to deliver shows to networks, and who knows how to read network specs.

  • I have AVI files that I need to be MOV files so that I can edit them in Final Cut Pro. I am going to use Quick Time Pro for this....do I have to 'export' it or can I just 'save as', or is there even a difference? Thanks in advance for your help!

    I have AVI files that I need to convert to MOV files so that I can edit them in Final Cut Pro. I am going to use Quick Time Pro for this....When I have the files open in QT Pro do I have to 'export' it or can I just 'save as', or is there even a difference? Thanks in advance for your help!

    I strongly recommend you use compressor to do the conversion (if it will open the files - since quicktime will open them, it will more than likely do it.
    Compressor allows you to customize presets and save them and apply them to multiple files.  Although the interface may seem daunting, it's actually pretty simple.
    Even if you can edit the avi in fcp, it's not a good idea.  Liable to cause problems down the road. 

  • Quick time movies (.mov) files will not play in Iphoto 11.

    Quick time movies (.mov) files will not play in Iphoto 11. The thumbnail of the movie shows but when selected only a exclamation mark appears.  I rebuilt the library, thumbnails, permissions etc. I also found the movie files in the iphoto database intact and working. Please advise.

    You're welcome.
    Well believe it or not, that's exactly what the exclamation point means. Search the forum. I've been doing this a while.
    Next, I have no interest, commercial or otherwise in Library Manager, I have no shares in the company that makes it. I didn't make it. It's not my software.  You could give those guys a million dollars and I'll get nothing from it. I and other expereinced users have recommended it thousands of times on this forum for this problem. Amazing how often it works. Of course, a quick search would have told you that already.
    Another: Believe it or not you can use the Rebuild Function of Library Manager for free. You don't need to purchase it for that purpose.
    Y'all have a nice paranoid day now.

  • Quick time movies in iPhoto

    I have a Panasonic digital camera DMC FX9. When I download stills and short movies from a SD memory card they automatically go into iPhoto. That presents a couple of problems on the quick time movies (.mov). One I don't want them in iPhoto, two if I rename them in iPhoto the new name does not show up in a "smart folder" on my desktop that contains only .mov files.
    How can I make SD card downloads separate .mov files from iPhoto pictures? Would like the .mov's to got to the default MOVIE sidebar folder.
    If not possible, then how can I make the names in iPhoto show up on a folder of just quicktime movies (they keep the original file name despite the new name in iPhoto)?

    Hi Edward,
    When iPhoto 5 first came out I really think it was programmed to import the smaller 30 sec video clips that cameras were taking at the time. Since then, digital cameras, at least my Canon S2 can take clips as large as your memory card can hold. The first time I tried to download my images and movie clips with my new camera, iPhoto stalled at the movie clips. I wasn't going to take any chances messing up my iPhoto Library so I started using Image Capture to download all my images and Movie clips. I actually like doing it this way a lot better. My movie clips are downloaded into my Movies folder where I then put them in a dated folder.
    My photos are downloaded into my Pictures folder, where I then put them in a dated folder. I import the dated folder into iPhoto. I also keep all dated folders from photo downloads in the Pictures folder till I get enough Movie folders and Photo folders to fill a DVD. I burn them and then delete them from the hard drive.
    This way I have the photos in iPhoto and I also have just the photos backed up to DVD.
    The Movies I keep on the hard drive in their dated folders until I use all the clips for my iMovie projects for the Year. I then make sure they are all burned to DVD, then I delete those from my hard drive.
    Using Image Capture to download images and video clips:
    Open up Image Capture which is found in the Applications folder.
    When it is opened, go to Image Capture/Preferences
    Under the General button choose
    Camera: When a camera is connected, open Image Capture.
    The next time you connect your camera Image Capture will open.
    In the window that opens you will see an Options button. Click on that button to set your options.
    To find out more about Image Capture (it can do a lot more) Click on Help in the menu bar when Image Capture is open.
    iPhoto: How to Change the "Open Automatically" Preference
    If you find you can't change any of Image Captures preferences or can't access any drop down menus or they are greyed out, check to make sure Image Capture is loose in the Applications folder and not within a sub folder.

    I have used still photos to make a Quick Time movie using FCE.  The DVD made using i-DVD looks somewhat grainy and the motion isn’t smooth when played on my TV.  Other DVD’s I have made play much better and I am wondering if the problem is my Quick Time movie settings.  The Dimensions and size of the problem movie are 1920X1080 and 584 MB respectively, while the movies that play better  have Dimensions of 853X480 and are about 1.3 GB in size.  Is this the source of my problem and how do I change things for the better. 

    Are you exporting to QuickTime Movie, or to QuickTime Conversion?   For iDVD, you need to export to QuickTime Movie.   Exporting to QT Conversion will kill the quality if you are moving the video from FCE to iDVD.
    The file size per se makes no difference.
    What size (pixel dimensions) are the photos that you put into your 1920x1080 sequence?  Also, exactly what are the sequence properties ... is it 1920x1080i60 ... or i50?  In North America it should be i60.
    853X480 is an odd frame size.  Where are you seeing this number?  It would appear to be DV-NTSC, which has a frame size of 720x480.  Your 1920x1080 frame size would not be DV-NTSC, it would be Apple Intermediate Codec.   DV and AIC will look different, for sure.
    Also, your quality setting in iDVD can affect the final video.  You may want to check that also (in iDVD Preferences > Projects).  Set it to Professional Quality if at all possible.
