How can you convert a large video file from the photo cache of an iphone3g to a playable file on a pc?

how does one transfer a large ( 1gb) video file from an iphone3g photo cache to a pc in a playable format?

The same way you would import any photo/video from a digital camera. Connect the iPhone to the computer and import the file. Then it can be played with Quicktime or any software that supports that file format.

How can I convert an .AVI movie file to get it into i-movie for editing?

I have downloaded the VLC media player which will open and play the .AVI files from a video camera (RCA Small wonder high def digital camcorder EZ229HD). Now I need to be able to convert these movies (which will only open and play after dragging them to the desktop) to import into i-movie so they can be edited. Anyone know how to do this? The phone support at MAC help said they really can't do any third party stuff so I do not know what to download, purchase, or even if this is possible. Can't imagine a format that won't work with a MAC! Please help. Thank you! Need these for a project.

Use Handbrake.
You can download it for free from this site:

Can I convert purchased m4v video files for my iPOD?

I want to convert a video that I purchased from the iTunes store, which is in m4v format so that it can play on my iPOD. However, when I select the movie from the library (in iTunes) and then FILE>CREATE NEW VERSION>CREATE iPOD OR iPHONE, this choice, as well as all others is "greyed out".
Any ideas? Am I doing something incorrectly?

IPOD will play m4v format videos from iTunes store.
Are these HD videos?
You can download the SD version.

Can I join two avi video files?

Hello,
after long search in this java forum, i don't get any solutions.
My problem is I want to assemble some avi files, and I'm not so good in JMF. So maybe anyone has a solution or a programm for me.
I'm also thankful for Tipps&Tricks or Links
Thank you very much.
Thomas

If you are using a Linux machine, you can use a command-line tool called AVIMerge.
I recently used it for joining individually submitted segments of a film like so:
avimerge -o InstrumentalityPart2.avi -i 01.avi 02.avi 03.avi 04.avi 05.avi 06.avi
There's also a way to do it in MPlayer/MEncoder using stream copying and rebuilding the index, but AVIMerge is easier to use.
Two caveats:
- AVIMerge isn't included in the out-of-box install of most distros, so you'll probably have to download and install a copy before you can use it.
- The AVI files you are joining have to have the same format (in the PAL vs. NTSC sense of resolution and FPS), and (I believe) the same encoding (as in "XviD with a constant Q of 2, a keyframe interval of 92...."). Basically, it only works properly if all of the videos you are joining were encoded the same way, with the same tools, and in the same format. This means that, if your individual video segments are in different formats or encodings, it's best to obtain the highest-quality copies possibe, as the re-encoding process will inevitably result in a loss of quality (though careful selection of filtering parameters can minimize some of this effect for certain types of footage).
I don't know of any Java tools that do the same thing, and am unsure of whether your goal is just to join a bunch of AVI files, or to make a JAVA app that, among other things, can join a bunch of AVI files. I do know that there is a way to use the "Runtime" object to call command-line programs from Java and wait until they terminate - which could allow you to make a Java wrapper for a program like AVIMerge or MPlayer/MEncoder.
Unfortunately, all of this is pretty much useless on Windows machines (though it might work on Mac OSX, I'm not sure).

How to import two AVI video files & convert to one FLV ?

Status:
- Newbie using PC & Flash CS3 ver9l
- I can import a single AVI video file and convert it to an FLV video.
Problem:
- I have two AVI video files... one 4GB (20 minute) long and one 2GB (10 minute) long... and want to combine them to have a single 30 minute long FLV video file.
Question:
- Can I do this in Flash? When I "convert" a single AVI video to a FLV using the File, Import method... I can't really see the video on the Flash time line. I'm a newbie so I'm probably doing something wrong.
- I tried doing a File, Import for file-1.avi and then doing it for file-2.avi... but the two were on top of each other... and not end to end.
Maybe some kind sould will walk me through this.
Thanks for any help.

Your not going to be able to combine two videos as one in flash, if your using Win try Win Movie Maker, I believe you can drag both into a WMVM timeline and can then save as one file, then you can use AVC video converter or the like to encode them into an .flv or.f4v file.

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.

Can you write an avi file without using imaq

Just curious if anybody has tried to write an avi file without using imaq vi's? So far I have only found sketchy info on the file format and am looking for some help on the file structure etc. Any references or example avi files with explanations of format would be most helpfull. Thanks in advance -

Absolutely.......
An AVI video file is actually structured in the same way as most Windows media files or RIFF files as they are generically known, thus the description below is applicable to for example WAV files etc.
Thus the file always begins with the four byte code RIFF and continues to use this generic four byte coding known as FOURCC, four-character code or FCC throughout.
There are then specific requirements for each different media content and the sections that must be included to define a valid file structure of the desired meadia type.
Each section or 'CHUNK' is defined by an FCC (RIFF being the first) with facility to include additional FCC's as required. The FCC is followed by a length descriptor and then the data (just for fun the odd CHUNK does not quite fit this very general overview). These chunks then align to even word boundries so padding zeros are often inserted at the end of a CHUNK to make it all nice and neat.
It is a requirement that software that does not recognise an additional custom CHUNK should ignore it, this is very easy as all you have to do is use the length descriptor to 'jump' over the CHUNK concerned.
The following is an example from the 'CLOCK.AVI' found on windows computers for a number of years...
RIFFjB AVI LISTŒ hdrlavih8
Here you can see the RIFF followed by a four byte length descriptor (4 Gigabytes), followed by various sub CHUNKS in this example the sub CHUNK is an AVI (note that it is actually 'AVI ' to conform to the FCC).
So the CHUNK structure looks a bit like this:-
RIFF ('AVI '
LIST ('hdrl'
'avih'()
LIST ('strl'
'strh'()
'strf'()
'strd'()
'strn'()
LIST ('movi'
{SubChunk | LIST ('rec '
SubChunk1
SubChunk2
['idx1']
For more information on all this you need to read the RIFF specification documentation on the MSDN website or on the MSDN Technet materials. Most of the stuff you will immediately locate will refer to the AVI file format as that is where most of the recent effort has been focused.

Can you convert a Windows Quickbooks Pro 2011 file to an Ibank file?

does anyone know if you can you convert a Windows Quickbooks Pro 2011 file to an Ibank file?

I can't answer for Internet Explorer but you should be able to export Bookmarks from FireFox. If you can't export from IE you may be able to import from EI to FireFox first.
In FireFox, menu BookMarks>Organize Bookmarks, then in the pane which opens, menu File>Export (that's how it works on Linux so Windows should be broadly similar). The result should be an html file.
You may be able to import this into Safari on your Mac; certainly you should be able to import it into FireFox and perhaps from there to Safari if necessary.
