How to convert BPAV to .mov?

I have to re-capture several clips that were shot in XDCAM EX 1080i. The camera Rolls are on a drive in BPAV folders. Inside each BPAV folder is a CLPR folder, 2 .XML, and an empty folder called TAKR. The CLPR folder contains the clips as folders containing : ,MP4, .SMI, .PPN, .XML, .BIM.
I converted BPAV to .mov for Final Cut once, but forgot what I did.
Thank you very much in advance for helping me remember,

YOu use the XDCAM TRANSFER UTILITY or the LOG AND TRANSFER plugin...

How to convert mpeg to .mov format

I am trying to upload a 3 minute movie clip to attach to an e-mail document. I converted it to mpeg. However, it is 59 mg and thus, too big to upload. After reading some of the posts on this site, I thinks that I must convert it to .mov in order for it to upload. Am I understanding this correctly?
Note that I don't want to compress the video so that it is of poor quality. If this is the procedure, how do I convert my mpeg file to .mov?
Note that I used Streamclip to do the conversion from the dvd.

Here you go. In this example, we've taken a short video and dumped into a folder we've created on our desktop called "yourvideo." Now, follow these steps to encrypt your video, upload it and get a download link you can email to others.
1) Open SimplyRar, and drag and drop the yourvideo folder into the application's window. It will appear as shown below:

2) Tick the password protect box at bottom and enter a password for your file as shown below:
http://img101.imageshack.us/img101/8799/25ry.jpg
3) Click on the "create rar" icon on the upper left and a box will open asking you where to save your new file, as shown below. In this example, I named the rar yourvideo and saved it to my desktop:

4) Once the process is complete, you can close the SimplyRar application:

5) Now go to www.rapidshare.de and select "choose file." Navigate to your file and select it, as shown below:

6) Click on the upload button, and your screen will show you the upload status (this is in Safari):
http://img97.imageshack.us/img97/6707/63yn.jpg
7) Once the upload is complete, you'll get this page. Locate the link as shown below. It is the active link you would send to friends in order for them to access your video file. Remember, they will also need the password you chose to .rar the file.

Can't open some .AVI - How to convert .AVI to .MOV?

Hello
I've got a bunch of AVI clips that I need to convert to .MOV for film scoring purposes in Digital Performer 5.
QTPro won't open these AVIs, how can I still convert them to MOV? Is there any way?
Thanks
Chris

Thanks so much for the great advice, I downloaded mpeg streamclip and I have been playing around with converting my video.
There are many different options and I have tried a few but the quality of the picture is slightly pixelated. Can you advise me about the best option to use to get the best quality picture.
I want to be able to edit it in imovie, so I was exporting it to quicktime but there are many other options which would you recommend?
When I exported it to quicktime I tried the following options
I have tried compression -
Apple motion jpeg A
png - sound played but picture was frozen and didn't play
Tiff - same thing as png
but there is an endless list and I'm not sure what it all means.
There are also many different frame sizes, I use (4:3) in imovie but it also had a 320 x 240 unscaled I'm not sure what this means?
Are there any other options/boxes I should be altering/checking?
Sorry for asking so many questions.
I'm not really very familiar with all these terms, it's a completely new language to me.
Any advice would be really appreciated
Thanks again for helping me out : )

How to convert BPAV in PE4

Hello,
I would like to create HD videos with the BPAV folders our EX3 Sony produces. Everything is filmed allright in HD as can be seen on Final Cut Pro on the MAC, but how do I get there in PE4?
With the Sony Clip browser I can export to AVI, but the quality is disappointing.
Shopuld I convert to another format and then which?
Thanks
Theo Richel

Theo,
I would post your question, re-phrased a bit, into the Adobe PrPro CS4 forum.
For the re-phrasing, I'd omit all mention of PElements. State the camera make and model (as you have done) with any more specific details. State the format (as you have done) and any specifics on the medium used to capture, i.e. P3 cards, etc.. Ask about the proper workflow in PrPro CS4 and sit back, as solutions will come in. Whether you will be able to adapt any/all of these to PE4 will have to be determined later. The workflow is what you want. Also, state your intended delivery scheme, i.e. full-HD BD, downsampled SD DVD-Video, etc. The more detail, the better. A lot of folk there work with full-range pro cameras, and might well have direct experience with your Sony.
Good luck, and just do not mention PE, or you'll be directed to post in this forum - something that you have already done. Remember, it's just the ultimate workflow that you're looking for.

How to convert VHS home movies to DVD?

How do I get best quality converting VHS to DVD. I will need to use iMovie as some need heavy editing. I know I can get them into iMovie via firewire using the D/A converter on my newer Canon camcorder. My Question (s)? is /are: What settings & format should I use to import into iMovie8 and to export to iDVD for best possible quality when played on a large screen (50inch). Several of the tapes were in such poor shape that the D/A converter on the canon wouldn't play them and I had to digitize them by playing through Eye-Tv(not the best solution but the only one I could come up with). Thanks in advance for any guidance you can give.
Dave

How do I get best quality converting VHS to DVD.
Use iMovie 06 instead.
iMovie 08 now uses single-field processing. This means every other horizontal line of the video is thrown out, which reduces the sharpness of the footage.
I find I get the best quality using iMovie 06 and iDVD 08 (use Professional Quality encoding in iDVD 08).
iMovie 06 is a free download to iLife 08 owners. (THEY WANT YOU TO HAVE IT!)
http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/imovieHD6.html
To get your VHS video into iMovie, look at the Canopus ADVC300. Audio and Video go in, FireWire comes out. It also comes with a nice Macintosh application that works flawlessly with iMovie 06 and iDVD 08 (not sure about iMovie 08).
The program that comes with the ADVC300 has some nice filters that can improve video and audio of the source material. The ADVC300 will take Audio and Video from any source and convert it to FireWire (iMovie will treat it like a camera).
http://www.canopus.com/products/ADVC300/index.php
You will need to use a "Real" Mac, (with a Firewire input).

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

I've been reading so many different forums on how to convert FLV to MOV. Finally, I summarized three solutions:
First one: HandBrake . This tool is a free and open-source multi-threaded transcoding app.
Cons:
1. HandBrake is too professional to handle for most people;
2. It doesn't support MOV as output format.
Second one: there are many third party software which supports converting FLV to MOV.I highly recommend iDealshare VideoGo which can batch convert FLV to MOV much easier, faster on Mac or Windows Cons:
1. Most of them are not free.
Third one: Online-Converter . This kind of converter does a great job on file conversion.
Cons:
1. Like most online converters, the free version of this tool only allows you to convert videos smaller than 100MB. It's too small for video conversion;
2.Your MKV video should be upload to the internet to be converted. This means the risk of pravite information leak is possible.

How do I convert wmv to mov files for fcp?

I have tried a couple of different conversion programs to convert a wmv file to mov or mp4, and all seem to result in a viewable mp4, but when I import into final cut and try to put the footage into my sequence, it won't render. The sound renders, but the video remains "unrendered." I'm using a Pro res 422 sequence. Does anyone know why this is happening and how I can fix the problem?
Thanks

Print the reviewer the original document the course content
was initially built from if they want it in print format. To expect
a flash SWF to print the same way as a Microsoft Word document way
is just stupid, think of the SWF's timeline and number of
movieclips (and movieclips within movieclips) and how much
information can be contained within it and how it might not always
be in a linear format (eg. like a Word Doc) = your answer which is
Flash is designed for online delivery of rich media content, where

I recently purchased QuickTime 7 Pro to convert avi files to mov files for editing on Imovie. However, QuickTime won't play the files. How can I get them to play and how can I convert them to mov files?

Both the AVI and the MOV file extensions refer to the file container and not the compressed data the file contains. Both are generic file containers in that each may contain any valid combination of audio and/or video data that is compatible with the codec component configuration of the system on which the file was created. On the other hand, whether a file is playback compatible, conversion compatible, and/or edit compatible depends on the data actually contained in the file container. So, you are basically dealing with two separate issues here—the container and what is inside it.
Basically, if you want to make your files ediit compatible with iMovie, you must change your file container to one that is acceptable to iMovie and convert the data to edit compatible audio and/or video compression formats as may be necessary. The best approach is to determine what codecs were actually used to create the original AVI files and add them to your system if possible. In most cases a codec package like Perian can be added to your system's codec component configuration to may the AVI file playable. Once they are playable, in the QT 7 app then they can be chnged or converted to file types and compression formats that can be edited in iMovie. (While Perian handles most codecs commonly used to create AVI files, it does not handle all possibilities and, while the Perian codec package still works under cureent Mac OS versions, its development group has decided to drop further development/support of the package.)
Background: AVI is a file container originally developed by Microsoft back in 1992 but for which official support was discontinued about 11 years. Despite its limitations, Windows users still tend to use this file based on its open source ease of use and generic nature, thus, making its use so popular that most users are unwilling to switch to more modern but less generic file types. Since some AVI legacy compression formats have never been transcoded for the Mac or use beyond OS 9 or OS X PPC platforms, it is often important to know what specific compression formats are contained in the AVI file to know which codecs to add to your system and which not to add in order to avoid possible codec conflicts.
You can use many different converters to convert AVI files to iMovie edit compatible files. Most third-party apps contain their own buit-in codecs which do not relay on the Mac codec component configuration. Free ones, like HandBrake, usually have limited conversion capabilities while those that have more varied outputs are usually commercial in nature and will cost you additional cash. QT 7 Pro or the free MPEG Streamclip app allow you to access you own system's component configuration and use any available codec component like DV, AIC, MPEG-4, H.264, Photo JPEG, etc.—all of which are iMovie compatible for editing purposes—but only after making the AVI file QT 7 player compatible.
In order to determine what compression formats wewre used in your AVI files you can
1) Try checking the Finder "Info" window,
2) Use the "Inspector", "Media Info", or "Properties" window of any player app that will open the file, or
3) Use a general media utility app like "MediaInfo" to read the file characteristics.

How to convert .avi files to .mov format for use in FCE ?

Hi guys,
I need to import an avi file into FCE. How do I convert it to mov format ?
Thanks

i am in the same boat. i have a canon G9 and automatically downloaded to iphoto without thinking. the videos i extracted seem to be .avi. what do i have to do to edit them in FCE4? i tried to convert them with prism, the video is messed up. i tried to put them into imovie instead, it won't let me do any effects on them. it's so confusing bc it lets the videos load in, or so i thought, but then it won't let me do anything to them? what do i do?

How to convert .mov files to MP3?

I am recording an entire book for someone who can't read. I'm using Quicktime Pro to do the recording. I want to burn a CD for her that she'll be able to play on any old CD player. How do I converrt the .mov files to MP3 or other usable format?

Itunes preferences > Advanced Tab > Importing Tab > Import Using Drop Down Menu
However as Kirk said it's pointless converting your files to mp3 if there going on to CD. This means you will compress the files, lose quality and they will then have to be reconverted to be burnt to CD. You would be better off exporting straight out of QT Pro as AIFF, this way you will not lose quality. You can then burn from iTunes toast etc no probs at all using this format.
Cheers

I dont know how to convert movies or videos into iPod form.

Okay heres the deal, I have a fifth generation iPod Video and it is as up-to-date as possible. But I dont know how to change videos or movies to iPod format. I also have QuickTime PRO. Someone please help!
Thank-you for your time.

Quicktime, Quicktime Pro and iTunes don't convert "muxed" ( muxed means multiplexed where the audio and video are stored on the same track) video files properly. It only plays the video and not the audio.
See:iPod plays video but not audio.
You need a 3rd party converter to convert the file with both audio and video.
See this for help: Guide to converting video for iPod (Mac/Windows).
