I use photo stills in my iMovie. I want them to last longer than a minute, but when I input 01: 45: 00, to signify one min. and 45 seconds, it doesn't accept it. What is the proper format for inputting minutes?

I use photo stills in my iMovie. I want them to last longer than a minute, but when I input 1:45:00, to signify one minute and 45 seconds, it doesn't accept it. What's the proper way to input it?

There are 30 frames in one second of video. So you can specify down to the frame level, which is 1/30th of a second.
Is the Duration box switching to some other time every time you type in 1:45:00?
For instance this is a 5 second clip plus 3 frames. To get this set properly I would type in 1:45:00, then click done. I don't know if it is different under older versions of iMovie, as I'm using iMovie '11 for thisi example.

  • What's the proper protocol for a reset on my ipod touch 4g?  iOS 6 has totally jacked it up and it will no longer do anything but crash, and won't sync with itunes wirelessly or by cable.

    What's the proper protocol for a reset on my ipod touch 4g?  iOS 6 has totally jacked it up and it will no longer do anything but crash, and won't sync with itunes wirelessly or by cable.
    It's a 64G ipod touch and was fine till Apple told me to upgrade to ios 6.  Now most of my apps crash, my music won't play and I just get a white screen when I hit Music.
    When I try to sync to itunes it acts like it's going to sync and appears to recognize the ipod, but it's grayed out and has an update circle by it that spins for a while until itunes eventually freezes alltogether.  Is there a  way to go back to ios 5 after a erase and reset?

  • What is the best format for ripping CD's to get the best quality?

    I'm sure this has been asked before but I wanted to see what was the latest thinking.  Any ideas of the additional Hard Drive usage?  Thanks

    My questions are: What are the best settings for ripping cd's in the AAC format?
    It is a matter of opinion, but I suggest 256 kb/s, CBR, and leave all other settings on automatic.
    Will I be able to burn cd mixes with the tracks I import into itunes after importing using the AAC format?
    Yes. Just put them in a playlist and burn.
    Does the AAC format have VBR like the MP3 format?
    Yes. You will see it as an option in the Import Settings.
    Is there other ripping software such as dbPoweramp and Exact Audio Copy that does a better job ripping cd's in the AAC format?
    EAC does a better job of correcting errors in damaged CDs, but for normal CDs iTunes does a fine job of ripping to AAC.

  • Adobe v. Apple - Flash v. H.264 - what's the best format for web?

    So the iPad doesn't support flash.  I guess that means that if I upload my projects as flv's or f4v's and use a flash player then the apple obsessed people won't be able to watch my videos
    http://tech.fortune.cnn.com/2010/05/02/apple-vs-adobe-is-flash-dying/
    Personally, I don't really care if flash lives or dies.  I just want to be able to publish videos that anyone can watch in a player that anyone can use without having to download a plugin.  SO, what is the best format to use?
    To date, I've been shooting my footage in HD 1920x1080i, saving my PE projects as MPEG2 HD 1080i, and then converting to f4v's.  Now I'm wondering if I should be saving them using the H.264 preset instead and then presumably some lower quality settings for the web file?  And if so, what kind of end user player should I be looking for?
    Help anyone?

    Well, unfortunately Flash was the universal format, and then Steve Jobs decided that he did not like Adobe. As most browsers on Earth were FLV playback enabled and if not, were only a quick, free download away. Now, it seems that Apple's devices will only work with flavors of MOV. One can still download and install Apple's QT Player (though several recent versions did not work well with Adobe programs - Steve Jobs sabotage?).
    Instead of coming together on universal formats/CODEC's, it seems that many wish to fragment the market to support just their products. One is at the mercy of these hardware and software companies. Producers probably should now do several versions of everything, if they wish to cover all bases. Someone will have to download and install something.
    Good luck,

  • What is the best format for a image with transparency?

    If I create an image in PhotoShop with Transparency, what is the best format and size to save it in for it to work in FCE?

    Did that link help you?
    Thanks Tom.
    The link helped.
    FCE kept crashing when I put the image on the time line and I figured out that it probably had to do with the size of the image that I was using. It was 4656x3400 and CMYK.
    Once I reduced it and changed to RGB it worked.
    Love your new book!

  • What is the best format for a master?

    Hi,
    I am about to send my master for replication. Can anybody tell me what is the best format I should save my songs into? I want to avoid any complains that my CD is not "compatible" with someone's CD player.
    Also, any pointers on how to burn my master CD (slowest speed, etc.) to get the best sound quality I can get from Logic Pro?
    As always, thank you sooo much. :>
    Anya

    Hi,
    Your master should be dithered (assuming you started off in 24bit) to 16bit and 44.1 - which is cd quality. Whether it is in aiff. or wav before you burn to CD is not an issue.
    As for the CD itself - use Waveburner to burn the master disk as this burns it to red book compliant quality. In regards to the speed - i tend to burn cd's at 4x as a sound guy friend a fw years ago informed me this would reduce the possibility of errors on a burned cd. If you want to be sure burn it slower even!
    The most important thing is to bounce your tracks down to 44.1 and use Logic's dithering options when making the tracks 16bit too.
    Hope that helps,
    Rounik

  • Ownership/Group/Permissions What is the proper setting for free access?

    When we first get a customer supplied disk, it is copied to our G5. It looks like whomever is logged into the G5 and copies the disk becomes the owner of that folder and their permissions are applied to the enclosed copied files.
    We never know who will wind up working on these files and I want anyone to have free and open access to the files.
    So what it the proper choice under the ownership & permissions?
    My thinking would be:
    Owner = System
    Group = Everyone
    Access = Read & Write
    There are bunch of acromyms under these pulldown menus which mean nothing to me.

    Choosing 'everyone' and 'read & write' should work fine.
    You could change the owner to 'system', but there's no need.

  • What is the PROPER plugin for Windows Media Player 12 - Prompt leads to WMP 11

    Is the plugin for WMP 11 the proper plugin for the WMP 12 64 bit system?
    Is this WMP 11 plugin the version of the plugin itself or for WMP Version 11?
    One web cam I tried to view said it needed this plugin, it wouldn't download; said to do it manually. When I tried it listed the Windows systems w/bit system information and Windows XP SP2 (x86)
    Windows XP SP2 (x64)
    Windows Vista (x86)
    Windows Vista (x64)
    There is nothing offered for Windows 7 at all, much less for this 64 bit system as it does for the two above systems. This is very unclear, and with so many problems posted all over the Internet.... and having lost graphic card ability and later memory burn out on last computer due to this same issue in Vista, I would really appreciate the proper plugin information relating to this issue so I can safely use my computer.
    Who creates the plugins?T Firefox or Microsoft? How can this problem go on for so many years unresolved? Thanks for your insight.

    You need a 32 bit Windows Media Player and a 32 bit plugin for it.<br />
    I don't think that the WMP plugin will work with a 64 bit WMP version.<br />
    Firefox is 32 bit as well.
    The WMP plugin that you found works with WMP 12.

  • What is the proper name for Mac OS? OS X? Apple Mac OS X?

    It's a tad bit confusing for me since I am new to Apple.
    What do you call it the true name for it?
    Apple Mac OS?
    OS X?
    If I type in OS X It shows all the versions released form Apple.
    Like in the snap shot below.
    http://i1157.photobucket.com/albums/p600/napninjanx/Snapshots/Untitled_zps2d1aa9 90.png
    When I searched for MAC OS it did not show the versions of released OS X for Apple.
    Like in the snapshow below.
    http://i1157.photobucket.com/albums/p600/napninjanx/Snapshots/2_zpsbae85e49.png
    But when I searched on eBay for Snow Leopard it showed the brand name
    http://i1157.photobucket.com/albums/p600/napninjanx/Snapshots/3_zpsbcb588ac.png
    Then I thought going by brand name and model is the way to know the proper name for it.
    I think the proper name for it is Apple Mac OS X that's how you type it in order to know other realses if I am not mistaken.

    You can call it Mac OS X or OS X and others will know what you mean.
    If you click the apple at the left side of the menu bar, About This Mac, you will see OS X so that is what Apple calls it.

  • Why won't Imovie let me make a video longer than ten minutes?

    This has never been a problem before.  I have made many videos on Imovie that are longer than ten minutes.  Now all of a sudden it won't let me make a video that is more than ten minutes long.  What is going on?
    On a somewhat related note:  Not only am I having this hassle, but I had to create a whole new apple ID just to ask this question becasue for whatever reason Apple wouldn't accept my credintials ( not even my recovery credentials).  Then I had to try to log in five or six times because at first they wouldn't accept my new password, which I later found out was because I also needed to confirm my recovery adress, and then because I had to create a separate Apple Support ID.  I don't know about you, but I'm starting to get really sick and tired of having to jump through so many hoops just to accomplish the simplest tasks involving apple features.

    Try copying it to your desktop, then importing into iMovie from there.

  • What is the best format for iMovie imports

    Hi There,
    I am trying to convert some home movies to iMovie on my mac the movies are on DVD in VLC> VTS files. What is the best file available on  Xilisoft video converter Ultimate for best quality in iMovie please.
    so many choices but none specifically for iMovie.
    cheers

    I don't seem to have DV or AIC as an option! Nor M-JPEG.
    What is available depends on which converter you are trying to use. iSquint, for instance, will only convert to MPEG4/AAC or H.264/AAC. A converter like MPEG Streamclip, on the other hand, will convert to DV, AIC, M-JPEG, Photo-JPEG, MPEG-4, or H.264 but requires the $20 QT MPEG-2 Playback component to work on VOB files.
    Also, although my VOB file is about 15mins, when I enter it in my converter it comes up as 2 seconds in the 'Duration' column. Why?
    This is a common problem with MPEG-1/2 files. Usually it stems from timecode breaks. Such breaks are ignored by many non-Mac multi-media players but not by applications relying on the QT structure which synchronizes tracks "temporally" rather than spatially as with "multiplexed" GOP files or interleaved tracks. Once again, this is why I prefer MPEG Streamclip for converting such files. It includes a "fix timecode" option ("Command-F") to correct these breaks.

  • What is the best format for my photos?

    I am working in a template on IPages and want to import photos.  This template will eventually be turned into a PDF with many pages.  I'm wondering what is the best photo format to use for the pdf to load quickly; speed is the priority here.  The photos will not be very large in the template - about 2"x2" at most.  Right now my photos are png's and jpgs.
    thanks!

    If they are color photo like images then jpegs are the best, you can vary their quality and resolution to keep them small, cropping them to exactly what you see in the layout also helps.
    .png are good where you have a transprent background but they are bigger.
    If you have vector (drawn lines and shapes + text) design then .pdfs are best, particularly if they are flat color.
