I'm trying to import my GoPro videos to my MacBook Air.

I've already imported 6 videos that we're all under 15 minutes. But, I still have 4 videos that are all 17 minutes and longer, when I try to update those, a message pops up. I don't know what to do >.<

Hi ..
Sorry, but due to glitches with the forum software, your image did not load.
Have you tried using the Image Capture app in your Applications folder to import video from the GoPro ??
Using a camera with your Mac
Make sure there's enough free space on your Macs hard drive to import video content to.
Click your Apple menu icon top left in your screen. From the drop down menu click About This Mac > More Info > Storage
Make sure there's at least 15% free disk space.

I asked this question before but I can't find it now. Anyway, I'm trying to import a DVD video that was made on a MAC and use it on a new iMovie project.

I asked this question before but I can't find it now. Anyway, I'm trying to import a DVD video that was made on a MAC and use it on a new iMovie project.
How do I do the importing.

If the video is already on a DVD:
You need to convert the VOB files in the TS-Folder of the DVD back to DV which iMovie is designed to handle. For that you need mpegStreamclip:
http://www.squared5.com/svideo/mpeg-streamclip-mac.html
which is free, but you must also have the Apple mpeg2 plugin :
http://store.apple.com/us/product/D2187Z/A/quicktime-mpeg-2-playback-component-f or-mac-os-x
(unless you are running Lion in which case see below))
which is a mere $20.
Another possibility is to use DVDxDV:
http://www.dvdxdv.com/NewFolderLookSite/Products/DVDxDV.overview.htm
which costs $25.
For the benefit of others who may read this thread:
Obviously the foregoing only applies to DVDs you have made yourself, or other home-made DVDs that have been given to you. It will NOT work on copy-protected commercial DVDs, which in any case would be illegal.
And from the TOU of these forums:
Keep within the Law
No material may be submitted that is intended to promote or commit an illegal act.
Do not submit software or descriptions of processes that break or otherwise ‘work around’ digital rights management software or hardware. This includes conversations about ‘ripping’ DVDs or working around FairPlay software used on the iTunes Store.
If you are running Lion:
From the MPEG Streamclip homepage
The installer of the MPEG-2 Playback Component may refuse to install the component in Lion. Apple states the component is unnecessary in Lion, however MPEG Streamclip still needs it. See this:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3381
To install the component in Lion, please download MPEG Streamclip 1.9.3b7 beta above; inside the disk image you will find the Utility MPEG2 Component Lion: use it to install the MPEG-2 Playback Component in Lion. The original installer's disk image (QuickTimeMPEG2.dmg) is required.
The current versions of MPEG Streamclip cannot take advantage of the built-in MPEG-2 functionality of Lion. For MPEG-2 files you still need to install the QuickTime MPEG-2 Playback Component, which is not preinstalled in Lion. You don't have to install QuickTime 7.

Get a copy of MPEG Streamclip and convert your MPG file to QuickTime/Apple Intermediate Codec (AIC). In FCE, select one of the setups that uses AIC that best matches your clip (say, 1920x1080i60). Create a new sequence, then import the converted file.
Note that if your MPG file is actually MPEG2 you will also need the QuickTime MPEG2 Component in addition to MPEG Streamclip.
What was the source of the MPG file? How about if you open it in QuickTime, then do Window > Show Movie Inspector. Tell us what it says for codec/compression, frame size & frame rate.

I'm trying to import a home video on to imovie.

i'm trying to import a home video and make it part of an imovie. When I click on import it says nothings been selected. what do I do to import a CD movie IN TO an iMovie? thanks

Can you drag the file off of the CD onto the Mac Desktop? Or is it a DVD? You might need to go through some extra steps to convert the DVD into something that iMovie can understand. For instance HandBrake can convert a DVD into .mp4 format which iMovie can then import into the iMovie Events Library.

When I'm streaming videos from my Macbook Air to my AppleTV, my Macbook Air gets rather hot and the fan works hard and is loud trying to keep the laptop cool. Is this harmful to the laptop? Is this normal?

My MBA fans start running when I play video too - the CPU's video processor is working pretty hard to decode the video. The fans job is to provide better airflow. The time to worry is when you play video and the fans don't run.

Is it possible to play a quick time player video on a macbook air? I've installed Mavericks on my computer already

I'm trying to watch a video on my MacBook air trought quick time player but the video just won't open. Every time I try to open it it says: "QuickTime Player can't open "IMG_1916.MOV". To see if additional software is available that will enable quick time player to open the movie, click Tell me more. I clicked on it but it doesn't show me any helpful information, or at least I don't see it.
Thank you

thank you

Do you have an Apple TV. In which case AirPlay or if your Mac is too old, Eric Root's AirParrot suggestion.
If no Apple TV, then a miniDisplay Port to HDMI adaptor and an HDMI cable (a Thunderbolt to HDMI adaptor is really the same as a miniDisplay Port to HDMI adaptor).

Hi..
Assuming you are using Safari ...
Quit Safari.
Open System Preferences > Flash Player then select the Storage tab. Click: Delete All
Now uninstall the Flash plugin then reinstall new > Troubleshoot Flash Player | Mac OS
Make sure to uninstall the currently installed Flash plugin first.
Launch Safari From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Empty Cache
Now try a video.
BTW... if you have the ClickToFlash extension installed, that can prevent Flash based video from streaming. It can also be installed as a plugin in /Library/Internet-Plug-Ins.
And check to see if Safari is running in 32 bit mode. Right or control click the Safari icon in your Applications folder then click Get Info. If the box next to: Open in 32 bit mode is selected, deselect, quit then relaunch Safari.

I am trying to set up internet sharing from my macbook air but there does not seem to be an option for this because the air is connected to the internet via wifi connection. Is it possible to still share this?

I am trying to set up internet sharing from my macbook air but there does not seem to be an option for this because the air is connected to the internet via wifi connection. Is it possible to still share this?

It depends upon how the other machines are connecting to your MBA:
If the the other machines are also using wi-fi, they can connect directly to the wireless access point (router) without going through your MBA
If the other machines are connecting to the MBA using ethernet you can share your wi-fi connection to them

Trying to import Adroid MP4 video to CS4

(Originally posted on the CS5 form - was redirected to this one))
I took some video on my Andriod phone at 1280X720. (Samsung Epic)
I try to import the resuling MP4 files it into CS4. Although it imports, it's very jumpy with poor audio sync. I can render the clip, but the final clip is till very jumpy
I bought a conversion program "Super. by eRighSoft' which provides an unlimited number of setting to convert the various specs of the file (sampling trate, video scale, video package etc...) and tried several setting. But still no luck.
Anyone figure out how to get the files to import correctly into CS4 from the Android Epic?
Thanks,
John

I ran the GSpot program.
When I looked at all Codec and Filters, there seemed to be a bunch of red line items on all the Main Concept files.
For instance, I received the following.
-     ** Problem **     ** File Missing:
"C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Premiere Pro CS4\ad2dsh264.ax"
- -   Type DSH
- -   Function    Decoder

REG   Driver File "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Premiere Pro CS4\ad2dsh264.ax"
REG   Merit 0x00600000
The file is in fact there. Also tried to re-register it, and it failed. "Unable to load module"
I recently upgraded to Win7 and just reinstalled Premier CS4 last week.
Maybe that's where my issues are coming from?
Here's the info on the file I'm trying to import.

No video output from MacBook Air micro DVI to Polaroid HDTV via DVI to HDMI

Grrr! What's going on? The Apple online store finally sent me a micro DVI to DVI adapter and a DVI to HDMI adapter cable as well as headphone output to RCA adapter cables (for separate audio, since DVI will not transmit audio) and I hooked it up and - NOTHING! When I initialize the appropriate input setting on the Polaroid 27"HDTV the MacBook Air seems to get some sort of query signal as its screen flickers for a moment and turns to a grey screen for a couple seconds but then, that's it! Nothing! The Polaroid's screensaver remains and no signal, audio or video, is transmitted. Now, the micro DVI to DVI adapter is Apple proprietary so I don't think it is a DRM related issue where the chip might block the video signal coming out of the MacBook Air. The longer, DVI to HDMI adapter cable is by Belkin. Am I overlooking something? Could the new 27" Polaroid HDTV not be compatible with DRM protocol? I don't think so since all digital TVs equipped with an HDMI input are supposed to have DRM compatibility built in. What gives?

Well, BSteely, where to begin? After my extensive discussions with more than one support engineer at Apple in Toronto as well as in Austin an interesting picture is emerging. Seems that I'd omitted a few things: First, I was not trying to display HD content but rather standard definition content. Second, I made the mistake hoping for an elegant and easy solution in hookup via HDMI (new flatscreens don't even have a DVI port anymore) - bad mistake! As one of the technicians put it, HDMI is an "unsettled" platform when it comes to HDCP, currently in version 1.4 , meaning, I should have tried VGA instead, a "settled" platform after all. Now, whether this will work remains to be seen because I don't have a micro DVI to VGA adapter yet but suffice to say that in essence I've been getting the message from Apple that, yes, the MacBook Air will - in the near future - support HDCP, but for now it does not contain the necessary software simply because HDMI is in its forth incarnation; plus, as they put it, Apple can't be responsible for testing compatibility with every single HD television set on the market - while it is true that there are thousands in existence, at the same time there are only four versions of HDMI with different HDCP specs! So, while I may be partially answering my own query here, it seems that Apple at this point is not particularly eager to make this software available because they rather would like to sell their new displays with the micro DVI ports instead of us endusers being able to hook the computer video signal up to just ANY monitor or TV. In the end, it is my hope that they will reconsider and not forget who their customers are, maybe after the Christmas season....
