How to render animation to a MP4 format or something else?

Hello. I usually render my animation to uncompressed AVI because after it I have to render it again with different software for video motage. So there wasn't any problem. But today I have to render my animation directly from After Effects. So I can't render it to uncompressed AVI anymore. I try render to MP4 format but that doesn't exsist. Even after wathich that tutorial below, I don't have that option what we can see in this video:
So I try to do something else. And I found different format as QUICKTIME with H.264. But after render, I can't see my animation (I can see only voice, there is no video). What is strange because movies from Adobe Premiere rendered to H.264 codec work perectly! The same codec but if I render videos from After Effects I can't see it in Windows. But from Adobe Premeire I can. Strange!
So I render my animation to QUICKTIME -> Motion-A format. And it works, I can see a whole rendered video now. But... 5 sec is over 150MB! And this is way to heavy.
Please, tell me what I have to do to render my animation in a good preset.

MP4 is the best format for what you describe.
After Effects never did a good job of rendering to that format.
Instead of wasting development time trying to make AE better at it, the After Effects team chose to let the Adobe Media Encoder team work on encoding things and they would work on making After Effects perform better and have better features.
So, either render an intermediate file from AE and use that in the Adobe Media Encoder or send your AE comp directly to AME. Either way, you will use the Adobe Media Encoder to make an MP4. That's how I did it even when AE could make MP4's because AE wasn't good at making them. You can get better quality at smaller file sizes with AME. Go with it.
Here's the Adobe team's official word on it: using Adobe Media Encoder to create H.264, MPEG-2, and WMV videos from After Effects
They explain the proper workflow and they explain why they removed H.264 and WMV encoding from AE.

About all you can do is wait until it finishes or you get an error message.

How do I Convert PDF file in browser to something else?

Hi All
How can I convert a PDF file coming up in browser to something else so I can print it on my epson printer. I looked in other forums and found something I tried, where you downloaded a converter, and I converted in to Jpeg among some other options it had, and printer would still not work, printer works on regular websites or on my notepad etc. but won't do the PDF file or would not print once I converted it to other things, can anyone help me. Thank you

I don't understand why you cannot print that PDF document.
What happens when you click on the Print icon on the upper-left side of the Adobe Reader browser plugin

3120c phone. How do I switch video to .mp4 format

I'm wondering how I can change the format of the video I take on my phone to .mp4, from the default format of .3gp.
Thanks,
Pablo

There are any number of video format converters out there that might do the trick, but the 3GP format is a deliverately low resolution format intended for mobile devices with low system resources and small screens, so the success of converting to a format doesn't really offer any benefits other than being able to play them in a wider variety of players, even in that case RealPlayer normally has no problem playing the files.

How to download youtube video in Mp4 format from safari ?

Does anybody knows how to put link and when video plays just click on it and it will download. I had that option a while ago and cant find the way to make it again. Or if you know any other way....

Using Safari 5.0.1 and Snow Leopard I used part of what I found online and stumbled across the final solution indicated by brackets {}
From <http://mac-dvd.com/mac-guide/how-to-download-youtube-video-on-mac-for-free.htm l>
Step 1: Download the videos
1. Find your favorite YouTube video. This step is pretty self explanatory. Be sure to use Safari and search for your favorite YouTube Video. {Select 720 p or greater.}
2. Next, you need to go to 'Window' and down to Activity. Click on 'Activity' to bring up the next dialog box.
3. Once the dialog box has popped up you need to look for the YouTube page among all the page titles and files listed in the window.
4. Once you locate it and expand all the activities going on in the page, look for the largest file size (this is shown in the right hand side). Most of the files found in a YouTube page are small files while most FLV files are several megabytes.
Once you locate the largest file,
What I found out:
{Hold down the SHIFT OPTION key and double click on it. The video should start downloading in your download and be named videoplayback.mp4.}
What I found out in the videos I tested is that if you did not use 720p or higher, SHIFT OPTION double clicking or just double clicking on the large file in the activity window downloaded an FLV file, which you then have to convert to mp4.
Hope this helps.

How to get an international English date format if I'm in a country where the date format is something else?

I'm physically in Malaysia and my iPad sets Malay as my default time format setting. How to get rid of the whole thing of using Malay as my date format and use English as default for everything including date and time ? Under setting> general > international, I have to choose something and English is not an option.

You need to choose an English-speaking country - I have Settings > General > International > Region Format set to United Kingdom (as I'm in the UK), so the first day of the week is monday and times are of the format 01:23 etc (there also options for US, Canada, Australia etc)

How to put full HTML in an outputFormatted or something else?

So i have a field that contains some html for example
<p><strong>This is important</strong> so please read it<br/>And a second line</p>When i put this is in an outputFormatted:
<af:outputFormatted value="#{myBean.value}" id="ot1"/>The text is shown on the page but when i look at the source, this is what i get:
<p>This is important so please read it</p>As you can see, the strong tag has been removed and the second line is also gone...
How can i achieve it so that everything is parsed exactly as i pass it? Or do i need another component instead of the outputFormatted?

Yannick,
af:outputFormatted is designed to only support certain HTML tags, and cleans up the rest (see [url http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E16162_01/apirefs.1112/e17491/tagdoc/af_outputFormatted.html]the docs)
You can use af:outputText with escape=false, just be sure to read [url http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E16162_01/apirefs.1112/e17491/tagdoc/af_outputText.html]the docs and make sure you don't open yourself up to cross-site scripting attacks

How do i link to an iframe, _self, or something else?

I have a vetical menu and I want to set my links for each item to open in an iframe on the same page. Other than using html object, is there a way to set target information for hyperlinks. There doesn't appear any way to set the target as something other than what comes with Muse (other page, anchor) like '_self', '_top', etc.

Hello,
The only option you have in Muse is to open the page in either same tab or a new tab/Window.
For this you need to Click on hyperlink at the top and check the box as shown in the image below :
In case you are looking for any other option like _self or _top, I would suggest you to post this as a feature request on our "Ideas for features in Adobe Muse" section of the forums : http://forums.adobe.com/community/muse/ideas

How to re encode UTF-16 to russian or something else

Hi,
My problem is following!
I have a UTF-16 bytes (from HTTP splitted with byte[] bytessplitted = abvaluea.getBytes( "UTF-16" );).
I am sure that it is UTF-16 because the given length from a example "string" is 14.
So when i want to display this now in a jsp i tried following:
<%= "UTF16 to German:"+new String(bytessplitted , "ISO8859_1")+"<br>"%>
result is:
��string
why is this!
Then i tried russian:
I entered: ячсм
Convert to bytes: from HTTP (UTF-16) splitted with byte[] bytessplitted = abvaluea.getBytes( "UTF-16" );
ReEncode: <%= "UTF16 to Russian:"+new String(bytess, "Cp1251")+"<br>"%>
result on the new jsp:
юяСЏС�СЃРј
Is my try false?
Please help me!
Gernot

new String(bytessplitted , "ISO8859_1")This bit of code says "Assume that bytessplitted was encoded using ISO*8859_1, and convert it to a String." Of course bytessplitted wasn't encoded that way, so it produces garbage. Likewise for your other conversion.
What JSP does with a string, when you output it via <%= %>, is to convert it to bytes using the encoding defined for the page it is producing. This means that all of that mucking about with Strings and byte arrays, besides being wrong and harmful to your data, is also pointless. All you need to do is make sure your page is encoded in UTF-8, then write your String data to the response object.

SharePoint Calc Column - How to Find and Replace ANY & ALL Values with Something Else

Haven't found a solution on this even though it seems like it should be cut and dry.
I have a column containing characters "-" (e.g., XXX123-123-fjhrh-sdafsdfsd). I want to find every "-" and replace it with "@". Seems easy but so far haven't found a solution. My calc column always seems to stop at the first
occurence of "-" and only replace that one. Seems every forumula wants you to tell SharePoint where to start (position). You can't simply tell SharePoint, Find this "-" ALL OCCURENCES and replace with this "@" ALL OCCURENCES.
I don't have the option of saying start at this position because my data is not the same in every cell/field (e.g., number of characters).
Closest I've gotten is this:
=REPLACE([IN THIS COLUMN],FIND("-",[IN THIS COLUMN]),LEN("-","@")
RESULTS:
XXX@123-XXX-123

Hi JJSHAREP,
The formula only works when there are only three "-" in the column value, and the formula will fail if there are more than or less than three "-" in the column value.
I recommend to use Jquery code to replace the characters in the column called IN THIS COLUMN in the UI:
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.10.2.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(function () {
var Index=0;
$(".ms-listviewtable tr th").each(function(i){
if($(this).find("div").attr("name")=="IN_x0020_THIS_x0020_COLUMN"){
Index=i;
$(".ms-listviewtable tr").each(function(i){
if(i>0){
var value=$(this).find("td").eq(Index).text();
var value1=value.replace(/\-/g, '@');
$(this).find("td").eq(titleIndex).text(value1);
</script>
Best regards.
Thanks

Export to .mp4 format?

I am using Premiere Elements 9 and I am wondering how to export my video to .mp4 format without losing the resolution? (I don't mean .mpg)
According to: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/862/cpsid_86248.html, I should be able to but no luck here.
Thanks in advance!

Export/Share to MP4 will use the H.264 CODEC, so there will be compression, and a decrease in quality.
To Share to MP4, you will use the QuickTime Preset, and then set the Compression to H.264.
The compression will be fair, and the quality quite good, or a compressed CODEC. H.264 is one of the better highly-compressed CODEC's available today.
Now, what is your Source Footage, and also your intended use for the Exported/Shared file?
There might be better alternatives, but your delivery will dictate if they are viable.
Good luck,
Hunt

How do I move just a single clip in the project file and then convert that into an Mp4 format?

Dear Assistance,
I have a project file open.
At the bottom of the screen there is a horizontal film strip of images. I have cut the images into certain segments.
I want to select one single segment (about 1 min long) and convert only that selected segment into a mp4 format?
Kindly inform me how the best way to go about doing that is.
Thank you,
Ben
[email protected]

In the sequence you will see the time code and a bar in line with it.
At the end of all your edited clips in the sequence you will find that the bar ends, this bar defines the work area.
Drag each end of the work area bar so it covers only the clip you want to export.
The select the exporter and select the preset you want and before you start the export where it says whole sequence change this to work area
Then change the default name and location to whatever you want and start the export, job done

I have built a slideshow in iPhoto -- I need/want the file in .mp4 format. How do I do that?

Ok, I don't know why I am here, but!
I have built a slideshow in iPhoto -- I need/want the file in .mp4 format. How do I do that?
The question may have been answered somewhere but I was sent here -- so her I am.
Still I think I need my slideshow in .MP4 format to play on windows/smartTVs and the .m4v file that export offers seems to be the only option and it fails.
I am using iPhoto v9.5.1 on a Macbook Air.
help.

Try changing the extension to .m4v and see if that will do the trick. It did for me on another occasion where it wouldn't play as .MP4. If it works it's a simple solution.
I compared an .m4v and an .MP4 file in Qujicktime Player via the Winde ➙ Show Movie Inspector menu and both were the same codec:
H.264, 1280 × 720, Millions
AAC, Stereo (L R), 44.100 kHz
Check to see what codec the Movie Inspector window shows.
