i can't import the .MOV file .how to i use it??

You might need to tell us a bit more about your problem.  Do you mean you can't import a video file into Premiere, or your computer is having trouble playing Quicktime files?

    DVD: can I extract the movie files?
    I created a DVD (burned on DVD media). I did not archive the project since the files are too large. Can I extract the movie files from the DVD? I want to make a edit to the DVD.
    I know if I have the movies (clips) in iMovie I can do it but how do I do it from a completed DVD that I created and dont have the assets?
    I really don't want to pay for software that I will use once. Low or No cost alternative that won't sacrifice file quality? Thanks! Steve

    As far as set up goes, others on this forum feel free to add. I rarely use either of the above (although I have access to them on separate power macs).
    Reason: Apple's DVDSP works natively with Mpeg-2. I personally have no need for anything else since these features are already included in apple's pro apps.
    Q: Doesnt DVDxdv watermark the demo version?
    A: Yes. It does, until you pay for it in full.

    Q:what is QT playback component??
    A:The QuickTime MPEG-2 Playback Component provides QuickTime users with the ability to import and play back MPEG-2 content, including both multiplexed (a.k.a. muxed, where the audio and video tracks are interleaved into one track) and nonmultiplexed (a.k.a. elementary) streams.

  • I have an older Sony digital camcorder, and I am having trouble importing the movie files. Sometimes I get the audio in iTunes without the picture. I have a Pinnacle Dazzle interface. What am I doing wrong. Is there a way to skip the dazzle device?

    I have an older Sony digital camcorder, and I am having trouble importing the movie files. Sometimes I get the audio in iTunes without the picture. I have a Pinnacle Dazzle interface. What am I doing wrong. Is there a way to skip the dazzle device?

    Chances are the pinnacle is producing .avi files or MPEFG1/2 streams - iTunes may know how to decode the audio but not the video. Download Handbrake and try running the Pinnacle files through it and adding to iTunes - use Universal format unless you have a specific device in mind.
    Keep copies of the originals.
    Another option might be to try to install Perian.  Can't remember if the Apple MPEG2 plugin allows MPEG2 to be played in iTunes.

  • I'm creating an epk and I need to add a bio to the menu.  Can I import the text file or do I need to retype the bio somewhere?  What is the best way to proceed?

    I'm creating an epk and I need to add a bio to the menu.  Can I import the text file or do I need to retype the bio somewhere?  What is the best way to proceed?

    Electronic Press Kit.
    Usually in the form of video outtakes, movie trailers, cast and crew interviews. Basically, the stuff that gets bunged onto commercial DVDs as extras or ends up on late night TV "Making Of..." shows.
    To answer the OP, you want a button on the menu that leads to a still image, or series of them, set up as a slide show. You can copy/paste the text in DVD Studio and then add formatting via the Text menu. (Highlight the text and right click to access formatting controls). Or do it in a graphics application using the appropriate video image preset.

  • Can't import mp4/mov files into iMovie

    I tried to create a new project by importing a .mp4 file from my account on Youtube. It copied the file to the event but didn't create a thumbnail. I did some research and I tried:
    -Quitting imovie, changing the name of the event folder, then restarting imovie.
    -Importing the .mp4 to a different event folder. Quitting/restarting.
    At this point, the thumbnail for the newly imported movie appeared but the other videos that were previously (and successfully) thumbnailed in that event disappeared. I quit/restarted iMovie and all the thumbnails in that event were missing.
    Here's what I've tried since then:
    -Converting the .mp4 in Handbrake to .mp4 and then importing again. No luck.
    -TRYING to convert the .mp4 to .mov in mpeg streamclip. I get an "Audio Decoding Error" when I attempt.
    -Converting the .mp4 to .mov while disabling the sound in mpeg streamclip. IT WORKS and iMovie is able to import AND thumbnail.
    So it'd appear that there's something wrong with the audio in the .mp4 file. Tried other .mp4 files and none of them were able to be converted or imported. Tried extracting the audio from the .mp4 file via MPEG streamclip and there's the same "Audio Decoding Error." The audio on the .mp4 file is AAC.
    OK... It'd appear that I'd need to just import the .mov (no sound) along with the audio from the clip (I've used AudioHijack for that) to edit both in iMovie. The problem is that when I try to export it in iMovie I receive error codes.
    This just all seems way, way more complicated that it needs to be. Does anyone have any suggestions on something I haven't tried yet or perhaps some video editing software (non FCE) worth looking into?
    Thanks

    I was currently having the same issue trying to import into imovie. I have EyeTV Hybrid and when exporting a movie it asks you to select format in which to export it in. I selected m-peg4 and when I tried to import into imovie it was grayed in the finder, so what I did was return to the export feature in EyeTV and exported again under a different format - for imovie. It's exporting as we speak and I feel this will allow me to import properly now. Hope this helps.

  • Can't import the motion file

    I'm working on a project using HDV clips recorded at 720p. I send a clip from the FCP time line to Motion. After adding text, I save the file and quit Motion. Back in FCP, I try to import the motion file, but it's grayed out. Is the problem with my motion user PRESET preferences?

    When you used "Send to Motion", did you check the "embed motion project file" checkbox? If so, you shouldn't have to import the Motion project.

  • Can't import new movie-files to iMovie.

    I have used IMovie to redirect some movie materials. It worked just fine.
    No I have started a new project. For this new project I try to import new movie material (mpeg). IMovie starts optimizing the material (even though I deselected this option). However: nothing happens. How big or small the file is, I try to import: no progress can be seen. (The estimated time is also blanc.)
    After waiting for 15 minutes, nothing happened. What is going wrong, and more important: how can I fix this?

    The best way to do this is to take a SD card out of your camera and insert it into a card reader. Then you can import directly from the camera. Do this for all future movies you shoot. There is no need for a third party converter.  You can also connect your camera via USB and import directly from the camera. In this case, you need to hook up your camera to AC power, not batteries only.
    If the only copies you have of your mts files have been removed from the camera and are out of context (you did not preserve all the folders from the camera), then your best bet is to use a converter. The two that I hear most often are ClipWrap and Voltaic HD.

  • Can't import large mov file to FCP

    I am new to Macbook pro and new to Final Cut Pro X. Rather than explaining how and why I would just like to tell you what, and ask you how?
    My MOV file is 469GB and is on an external HD
    My Macbook Pro has an SSD with 434GB free space.
    Final Cut Pro X cannot import because there isn't enough room.
    Any suggestions? It is a church service so there isn't a way to get it again.
    Thanks

    Import the file and leave unchecked copy to event.

  • I can't import any movie files in FCPX (even files that previously imported)

    I am currently in this interesting position of not being able to import any videos into FCPX. Not just one, or a few odd ones, but none whatsoever.
    I have previously imported some videos into FCPX, so it seems like the software is... deteriorating.
    I created a quick video showing my attempt to import a video (ProRes4444) created in Motion5.
    http://youtu.be/LLD_4YVeipQ
    I had imported the exact same video into FCPX previously (another Event, another time).
    It doesn't matter if I use the import dialog (or what settings I choose on that dialog) - I get the same result.
    As you can imagine, as a result of this, I can't do anything on FCPX at the moment...
    If only FCPX came on CD, I could at least use it as a coffee coaster - even that would be far more use than I'm currently getting out of it ;-)
    I guess I can try a reinstall, but I wanted to plea for help & share with others who might get this & wonder if they're the only ones.

    Yes, that's it. thank you.
    I changed Import settings to "Create Proxy Media" at some stage & the setting in Playback "Use Proxy Media" must stay set to this. Basically, if you get Playback & Import settings out of sync, you'll get this calamity.
    It would be nice to get a message about it - it's quite a "gotcha".
    My evil side can now sabotage anyone's FCPX installation just by going to their house & setting Playback to "Use Proxy Media" - should have them scratching their head for hours ;-)
    I imagine that you must have been burnt a little by this - and that's why you know the answer so quick ;-)

  • I can't import supported movie files

    I tried importing a mpeg4 video into iMovie but it appears greyed out. I converted the file to quicktime and this also shows greyed out. both are supported formats. what do i do?

    I had a similar problem. I found out there are QuickTime movies that are just incompatible: format, compression scheme or something. Experimenting, I converted my QuickTime movie to a QuickTime movie. If you have QuickTimePro, try this. Open the clip in QuickTime. From the FILE menu, click Export. From the resulting window, in the Export field, select Movie to QuickTime Movie. Then click the Options button. On the resulting window you can see the various options provided. Choose Settings. On the resulting window, on the Compression Type field, choose H.264 or Apple Intermediate Codec for high quality, but others will work, too. You can experiment with Size, but the larger the size, the longer it will take to convert (think pixel by pixel). It took me more than 8 hours to convert a 37 minute clip to Apple Intermediate Codec and longer with H.264 at 854x480. You can experiment with others as well, and iMovie 8 or 9 should have no issues importing most of these. If you do not have QuickTimePro, consider buying it. It’s available as a download from Apple and you’ll probably use it more than you might think.
    Good luck.

  • How can I import an ibook file back into iBook Author?

    I exported an ebook from iBook Author thinking it is the equivalent of saving the file.
    I did not save the file, I only exported it and than exited the program.
    My active file is vannished.
    I need to make some adjustments to the ebook, but can not bring it back up.
    Is there a way that I can re-import the iBook file back into iBook Author?
    When I open iBook Author and try to open the exported file the program does not recognise the ibook file...
    Thanks for your help!

    Check for previous versions of that book in iBA....even if not saved.
    You can dig into the .ibooks file by changing the suffix to zip, but you'll have to manually extract what you can from assets you find. Please only do this with your own books.
