How to put a video on USB-stick?

I want to share my edited video. (The video is HD)
Most people want to have the video on a USB-stick. They want to watch the video on TV.
(Formerly I produced a DVD, but the quality is only SD. I don't have a Blue Ray recorder)
What is the best way to put it on a stick?
I also have Compressor.

in addendum to Russ' answer … :
The 'universal' format is a h264 in a mp4 container.
I'm noticing issues with 1080/'fullHD', because many people are lazy and try to playback straight from the stick = too slow = stutter, jam, trouble. So, usually I down-scale resolution to 720/25p (US: 30p), which allows a lower bit-rate (3-5mbps).
Some devices ask for a special folder-structure, my son's PS3 e.g. is looking for a MOVIES (all caps) folder, inside the mymovie.mp4 (encoded in h264). This Folder Structures differ by brand or model, read the manuals.
Another, fast way is: export in h264 from within FCPX; open resulting mov with free tool MpegStreamclip; go straight to 'Save as…' and choose in drop-down MP4 => no new encoding, just re-wrapping the mov into a mp4. Super-fast.
.... and, no, just changing the suffix doesn't do the trick ....

HT204382 How do I watch video from USB sticks please Thomas

Hello World, who knows how to watch video from a USB stick??

You click on the USB icon in a Finder window, and double-click the video....
Where the video is (hard drive, DVD drive, USB, network) makes no difference to OS X.
If you are having trouble making QuickTime play a particular video, it's probably because QuickTime doesn't support a lot of formats. Save yourself a lot of hassle and download the free VLC videoplayer and use that for playing your videos (whatever the format, VLC will probably play it):

Plug the stick and/or card into the appropriate slots on the side of your Air. Do you see icons for the devices appear on the desktop? Click into them to see what files are there.

Hi Life93,
What you describe would be possible by recording your video, then removing the audio from it and adding audio from GarageBand once the video is in iMovie (I presume here that you are using iMovie for your video production. Other applications may need different methods.)
See this thread on how to remove the audio from a clip in iMovie -

How to update recovery firmware through USB stick

Hello,
I have px4-300d and recently got an issue with iomega device not booting. The iomega logo is displayed and nothing happens after that. The OS is not booting. I fI conenct keyboard to USB port and press CTRL-ALT-DEL it reboots. So it is stuck somewhere in or before OS boot. Since I cannot connect monitor to this device, I need to find a way how to blindly recover the OS.
I heard some models have an option to use firmware upgrade from the USB stick. I believe it is the same case for this device. Can you suggest me how can I load new recovery fimrware from the USB disk to try to recover the device?
Thanks.
Solved!

I am having trouble figuring out how to transfer only certain photos on a DVD to my Mac. I don't want to transfer all of them. Any suggestions?
How are the photos stored on your DVD? Are the DVDs backups of iPhoto Libraries or simple folders of photos?
If the photos are in an iPhoto Library, you cannot import selectively, because you cannot open an iPhoto Library on a DVD. You will have to move the library to a disk, where iPhoto can write to the library, even if you only want to browse it. iPhoto needs read/write access.

How to run fsck.vfat for USB-stick during cRIO-9030 boot?

Hi all,
we have a cRIO-9030 with a USB-stick. Sometimes after power loss the USB-stick filesystem (FAT32) gets corrupted and has to be checked/fixed. How can I configure cRIO LinuxRT to do that?
I've checked /etc/fstab, but it looks that the USB-stick is mounted somewhere else. I run mount - here is the line:
/dev/sdc1 on /media/sdc1 type vfat (ro,relatime,fmask=0000,dmask=0000,allow_utime=0022,codepage=437,iocharset=iso8859-1,shortname=mixed,quiet,errors=remount-ro)
It would be nice if I can run fsck.vfat /dev/sdc1 every boot or when an error is detected.
Thanks in advance,
Nikolai

Hi NickViz,
My name is Ed form National Instruments Technical Support, I have researched into the topic and found that it is possible to use the 'System Exec.vi' to complete the command during the initialization of your RT application.
You simply need to input your commands as a string just as you would to command prompt/terminal (depending on OS), you can also execute commands via SSH however this is one way communication between the RT application and the command shell.
I have included some links below to articles which describe the methodology as well as give some further explanation into the NI Linux Real-Time OS.

I hope this is helpful and you achieve what it is you need, do note you will need to enable SSH scripting as described in the article on using PuTTY for your Real Time device.
Kind Regards,
Ed

How to synchronize multiple computers via usb stick?

I have three computers on which I work most of the time and I have some files, that I have to access/change on all three and thus I have to sync these files. I would like to do this using an usb stick. To do so, I formatted a partition on my usb stick as ext4 (without journaling) and then use unison to synchronize the files from one computer to the usb stick when I'm done working on one computer and before I start, I do the same.
Unfortunately, I have different uid and gid on the different computers (and I cannot change that as I'm not admin on every one). Unison can still take readable files from the usb stick and store them with my `correct' local uid, but unfortunately it cannot create new files/folders on the usb stick, as the folders are often with rwxr-xr-x permission.
There are some suggestions, such as here to simply change the ownership of all files recursively, but since I'm not root, I cannot do that. (Additionally this solution does not feel optimal, as I would have to change the permission bits with every mount -- and this is probably not the best to do to an usb stick(?).)
So after the whole lament my actual questions:
o Is there a file system, that can store permissions (such as redable/writable with user and group support), but that I can mount with changed permissions (e.g. translate uid=1023 to uid=17011 while mounting but leavin the actual bits set) and that is suitable for use with an usb stick?
o Is there a tool to mount/remount the usb stick with `translated' permissions?
o Is there any other solution you could think of to accomplish my syncing? (Keep in mind, that sky/cloud drives are no possibilities, as not all of my computers have internet access.)
Note: The permissions (which file is rwx and which is only r--) is actually something I want to preserve during this sync-process -- that's why I used ext4 in the first place.

I don't want to change the permissions stored on the usb stick. I just want identical files on all my three systems (also with the permissions set correctly), but I want to use my local uid instead of the uid stored on the stick. So that the mounting system does not see ``uid=1023 has rwx for file /mnt/foo'', as it's stored on the usb stick, but I want it to see ``uid=17011 has rwx for file /mnt/foo''.
I Imagine some tool like a table that links the actual, stored, uid on the stick (1023) to the one, I want my system to perceive (17011).
If I make a file executable, I want to keep that information. If I store that file on a fat, it's lost.

How can I download a copy of Mac X Lion and put it on a usb stick so I can install on my imac which has crashed

I was installing Mac X Lion on my iMac when the power went off. A error message says install failed, Mac OS X could not be installed on your computer, The installer encountered an eror that caused the installation to fail. Contact the software manufacturer for assistance. Click Restart to restart your computer and try installing again. When I restart it keeps going to install Lion and getting the same error message. I tried starting with holding the option key down and selecting Mac Hard disk, but again it keeps going to the installer and the error comes again.
How can I download a copy on my MacBook Pro and put it on my iMac?

If so, the first thing I would do is to back up your data on the ill mac. I assume both macs have firewire port, get a cable and connect both macs via this cable. Then restart your ill mac by pressing T key after chime, it will become a simple external disk you should see on the desktop of your healthy mac. Back up your data.
Now, with this action accomplished, you may go on. BArney - 15E is optimistic and says how to restart in recovery mode—this may be possible if installation was complete for recovery partition (I doubt this, but I may be wrong).
Otherwise, I would reinstall from the scratch. If after connecting your ill mac via FW, you may see the disk in good order, you should also see the Lion installer within Applications folder. Copy it unto an external disk or flash disk and keep it safe, you will need it again.
