IDVD won't Transition the finished project...

Hello,
I just saved my project using the "Flip" transition setting. After the project is burned the DVD plays the "None" transition setting. Has anyone ever had this problem before or know how to fix my problem? Thanks in advance!

It could be media-related.
Suggest you create a disc image and then burn the DVD. File/Save as Disc Image...
This will isolate any encoding/burning issues you may encounter. Once the disc image is created, double-click the .img and burn the virtual disc that should appear on your desktop, using Toast to burn the DVD. Disk Utility to burn the .img file. Usually, you can select a burning speed in Disk Utility.
There are variations to this process based on which OS X you are using...
Open Disk Utility (in Utilities folder in Applications folder), click on the virtual disc (maybe the .img) in the left-hand window. Click the Burn icon. A new window should drop down and your SuperDrive tray will open after clicking the Burn icon. Insert a recordable DVD. (Verbatim DVD-R preferred by me.) Click the Close button. Wait. Select a burn speed. If you hold your mouse cursor over the pop-up it says: "Select a slower speed to work around burn failures," so select 4x or slower for best results. Then click the Burn button.
-->If the virtual disk selection won't allow you to click the Burn icon, use the .img file instead. This may have changed in 10.3.9 and did change in Tiger.
Also, you can use DVD Player to play the virtual disk to check your iDVD project before burning to DVD. Launch DVD Player. File/Open VIDEO_TS (Open DVD Media... in Player 4.6). Find the VIDEO_TS folder and open that. (The audio folder is for DVD-Audio disks.)

  • I need help to deliver the finished project to our client.

    I can't deliver the finish project to our client and could use some help. Here is the problem:
    I edited a 30 minute show with Premiere 1.5 (and Aspect 3.4, 1440 X 1080P) with many blue and green screen keying effects. Whenever I try to export to DVD in high resolution out put I get a memory error half way through the rendering. As a result I have had to export using the low resolution option which looks awful.
    Finally, after having tried to add memory sticks (I now have 4 giga) and reinstalling Premiere on a new drive and even turning off the double monitor system I still get the memory error. My gut feeling is that this is due to the fact I shot the show in 25P and Premiere has problems converting 25P to regular Pal.
    Anyways, finally to solve the problem, I installed Premiere CS3 and Aspect 5.4 and tried opening the project. Here I ran into two problems: (1) The green screen keying effect is not recognized by CS3 (as only Premiere 1.5 does both blue and green screen Keying) and (2) there is no direct way to export to DVD.
    So I have a client who wants the finished product in quality resolution on a DVD, and I can't provide it. This is really annoying.
    If anybody can help me out on how to get the show out on DVD with a 2 pass high quality export it would be very helpful. Thank you.

    1. If you insist on keying in Pr; use the color or chroma key. If you want a quality product use a compositor like AE to do your keying.
    2. Export to Encore

  • IDVD won't import any iMovie project

    Hi,
    For the last 2 days I've been trying to import ANY type of video file from iMovie into iDVD 7.0.3 but again and again, I get the error: "Unsupported File Type : Unknown format"
    I tried:
    - Using iMovie to Share my project with iDVD but after coding etc, iDVD gives the error: "Not a movie"
    - Using the Share -> "Media browser..." but every time iDVD gives the above error.
    - Reinstalling iMovie and iDVD with Appcleaner.
    The thing is that I can still import mp4 movies but not if I make them with iMovie. And when I for ex. try to drag a iMovie project that I Shared via iMovie, I don't get a green plus when put it in the menu of the DVD...
    I really need to burn this DVD,
    Please help me!

    Hi
    *Not knowing the origin to Your problem - General approach when in trouble is as follows:*
    • Free space on internal (start-up) hard disk if it is less than 10Gb should rather have 25Gb
    • Hard disk is untidy: Repair Permissions, Repair Hard disk (Apple Disc Util tool)
    • Delete iDVD pref file - *or rather start a new user/account* - log into this and re-try
    iDVD pref file resides: Mac Hard Disk (start-up HD)/Users/"Your account"/Library/Preferences and is named:
    com.apple.iDVD.plist
    While iDVD is NOT RUNNING - move this file out to desk-top.
    Now restart iDVD.
    • Program miss-match: iDVD 5.0.2, Mac OS X.4.11 AND QuickTime 7.5.5 - is OK - DON’T work under Leopard
    • Program miss-match: iDVD 6.0.4, Mac OS X.4.11 AND QuickTime 7.5.5 - is OK (might work under Leopard)
    • Program miss-match: iDVD’08 v. 7.0.1, Mac OS X.4.11 AND QuickTime 7.5.5 - is OK (might work under Leopard)
    • iDVD (08) v7 Locate theme folder. Move out iDVD1, iDVD 2 and eventually iDVD4 folders to desktop - re-try
    • Try a Cleaning CD/DVD that cleans the laser lens on the DVD burner/player
    iDVD 6.0.4 and iDVD 7.0.1 are compatible with Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard
    Last resort: from Craig: Solved the problem!! Finally!!
    I deleted every iDVD application and folder from my boot drive,
    emptied the trash and then installed iDVD 08 using the customize option
    and I am up and running.

  • IDVD won't play the audio right for the movie

    Hi.
    I'm having a problem with iDVD 6. I made a movie I want to burn on DVD. The sound is fine on iMovie, but when I previewed it on iDVD 6 it was messed up. Does anyone know what to do?
    iMac G4   Mac OS X (10.4.5)  

    I'm having the same problem and "glad" to see this is not an isolated problem. An iPhoto slideshow sent to iDVD with the same music works fine but not if I turn the iPhoto slideshow into an iMovie (I wanted a variety of transitions, titles, etc. that iMovie permits) and then transfer it to iDVD. The sound appears to be playing at a slow speed.
    However, I discovered that if I first transfer the iMovie file to Garageband in iLife6 and then transfer it to iDVD from Garageband that the sound track is working again. It takes a lot of time to do these transfers so if anyone has discovered why some of us have a problem in transferring from iMovie5 or iMovie6 to iDVD5 or iDVD6 I would appreciate an answer. I had hoped iLife6 would solve my problem but it hasn't.

  • IMovie 10.0.5 and it won't export the finished video.

    Laptop running 10.9.5 and iMovie 10.0.5
    Finished a video and it is in the "theater" but it won't share from there since it is saying that it "Can't share when referencing the camera."  We have reimported the files three times now.  When we remove the card after the import it makes the files all disappear. The computer will not recognize the imported files.  It is giving the message in the timeline on the supposedly missing (and imported three times now) files that "The media from the clip is still on the camera.  To begin importing, select "Reimport from Camera/Archive..." from the File menu."
    There is NO "Reimport from Camera/Archive..." in the FILE menu.  Where is this and how can I get this hour long and fully edited exported?
    Please do not tell me to reimport the files.  We have.  Three times.
    Please do not tell me to select the event files and then the words will appear in the File menu.  They don't. 
    Please do not tell me to select the files in the edited timeline and the words will appear in the file menu.  They don't.
    Please do not tell me that my student has wasted hours editing this project and we won't be able to use it. 
    I need an answer to get to it and fast.  We are on a deadline.  Thanks.

    Did you get any joy with answering this?
    My first thought was that maybe when you imported you chose to leave the files  in place rather than copy then to the iMovie library..but I can't see where that option is now.
    I too have created a short movie from load f clips..but can't export or share either..the 'Share 'menu is empty..you go to it and no sub menu appears.

  • Idvd won't recognize the .mov file I made in iMovie,

    so now i can't bring it into a dvd project.  Any solutions?  I made dvd with it before.  I'd like to be able to use the idvd themes.

    This is how I've done it in iMovie 11 - I haven't used it for some time and I don't know if there is a later version or if this will work (Apple may well have crippled it like other programs):
    Don't use Share to iDVD, it degrades the quality.
    Select Share>Export using QuickTime. In the 'Export' drop-down menu choose 'Movie to QuickTime Movie.
    Click Options. Uncheck 'Prepare for Internet Streaming'.
    Video: Settings: Quality - best. Frame rate - current. Compression type - try 'None'. Size - PAL 720 x 576*. Do not deinterlace. This will take around real time.
    Import into iDVD and proceed in usual way.
    *For UK. If in USA use suitable settings for NTSC.

  • IDVD won't load the mov

    I don't understand, in the past I move the .mov onto the project and it, in the status part, begins loading. But it doesn't do that, it doesn't even load in. Is it because it is so long perhaps??
    thanks
    Kate

    you gave us very little info about your problem, Katherine.. :-/
    iDVD doesn't accept all kind of .mov, mov is just a container, containing (sic!) many formats... not all are supported by iDVD... where did it come from, that misbehaving .mov?
    secondly, iDVD accepts projects of max. lenght of 120 minutes... the size in MB/GB doesn't matter... e.g. if you try to burn a highly compressed .mov containing some h264/mpeg4/divx/whatever... data of letssay 1GB size, but 180min length, that doesn't work with iDVD....
    reading "iBook" in your specs:
    make sure, you have at last 10 - 15GB free on your internal drive AFTER you have imported your movies into iDVD to make the app work flawless....
    helpful?

  • Are there glitches in iMovie or iDVD that would create problems with viewing a finished project on a standard dvd player?

    Everytime I render a new project in iMovie and share it with iDVD to produce a video, there always seems to be glitches in the finished project.  I have gone back and tried to recreate the slideshow, but have not had a whole lot of luck.  I am wondering if I need to delete the iMovie and iDVD applications from the computer???  If I do that will it fix my problem or will I even be able to redownload the programs without having to pay for them again?  I have spent more time and $$$ trying to get a viewable disc to burn and am ready to get rid of the computer altogether.  Hopefully that will not have to happen, but this is a constant issue that I go through everytime I work on a project.  Any suggestions???

    Hi
    Yes and No.
    There are Bugs and ways to make better or Worse DVDs - see if this can help.
    There are two "Bugs" (or at least one)
    • In iDVD - do not go back to video editing program - if You got Chapters set in Your movie - if You try - then now back in iDVD it will ask You to up-date ==> all Chapters will point to Chapter one. Medicine - create a brand new iDVD Project.
    • There MUST NOT BE any Chapter mark set in very beginning of the Movie - or in any transition or within 2 seconds from them.
    DVD quality  
    1. iDVD 08, 09 & 11 has three levels of qualities. (version 7.0.1, 7,0.4 & 7.1.1) and iDVD 6 has the two last ones
    • Professional Quality
    (movies + menus up to 120 min.) - BEST (but not always for short movies e.g. up to 45 minutes in total)
    • Best Performances
    (movies + menus less than 60 min.) - High quality on final DVD (Can be best for short movies)
    • High Quality (in iDVD08 or 09) / Best Quality (in iDVD6)
    (movies + menus up to 120 min.) - slightly lower quality than above
    Menu can take 15 minutes or even more - I use a very simple one with no audio or animation like ”Brushed Metal” in old Themes.
    About double on DL DVDs.
    2. Video from
    • FCE/P - Export out as full quality QuickTime.mov (not self-containing, no conversion)
    • iMovie x-6 - Don't use ”Share/Export to iDVD” = destructive even to movie project and especially so
    when the movie includes photos and the Ken Burns effect NOT is used. Instead just drop or import the iMovie movie project icon (with a Star on it) into iDVD theme window.
    • iMovie’08 or 09 or 11 are not meant to go to iDVD. Go via Media Browser ( AND AS MEDIUM - not HD etc as DVD then will suffer in quality ) or rather use iMovie HD 6 from start.
    3. I use Roxio Toast™ to make an as slow burn as possibly e.g. x4 or x1 (in iDVD’08 or 09  this can also be set)
    This can also be done with Apple’s Disk Utilities application when burning from a DiskImage.
    4. There has to be about or more than 25Gb free space on internal (start-up) hard disk. iDVD can't
    use an external one as scratch disk (if it is not start-up disc). For SD-Video - if HD-material is used I guess that 4 to 5 times more would do.
    5. I use Verbatim ( also recommended by many - Taiyo Yuden DVDs - I can’t get hold of it to test )
    6. I use DVD-R (no +R or +/-RW) - DVD-R play’s on more and older DVD-Players
    7. Keep NTSC to NTSC - or - PAL to PAL when going from iMovie to iDVD
    (I use JES_Deinterlacer to keep frame per sec. same from editing to the Video-DVD result.)
    8. Don’t burn more than three DVDs at a time - but let the laser cool off for a while before next batch.
    iDVD quality also depends on.
    • DVD is a standard in it self. It is Standard Definition Quality = Same as on old CRT-TV sets and can not
    deliver anything better that this.
    HD-DVD was a short-lived standard and it was only a few Toshiba DVD-players that could playback.
    These DVDs could be made in DVD-Studio Pro. But they don’t playback on any other standard DVD-Player.
    Blu-Ray / BD can be coded onto DVDs but limited in time to - about 20-30 minutes and then need
    _ Roxio Toast™ 10 Pro incl. BD-component
    _ BD disks and burner if full length movies are to be stored
    _ BD-Player or PlayStation3 - to be able to playback
    The BD-encoded DVDs can be play-backed IF Mac also have Roxio DVD-player tool. Not on any standard Mac or DVD-player
    Full BD-disks needs a BD-player (in Mac) as they need blue-laser to be read. No red-laser can do this.
    • HOW much free space is there on Your internal (start-up) hard disk. Go for approx. 25Gb.
    less than 5Gb and Your result will most probably not play.
    • How it was recorded - Tripod vs Handheld Camera. A stable picture will give a much higher quality
    • Audio is most often more critical than picture. Bad audio and with dropouts usually results in a non-viewed movie.
    • Use of Video-editor. iMovie’08 or 09 or 11 are not the tools for DVD-production. They discard every second line resulting in a close to VHS-tape quality.
    iMovie 1 to HD6 and FinalCut any version delivers same quality as Camera record in = 100% to iDVD
    • What kind of movie project You drop into it. MPEG4 seems to be a bad choice.
    other strange formats are .avi, .wmv, .flash etc. Convert to streamingDV first
    Also audio formats matters. I use only .aiff or from miniDV tape Camera 16-bit
    strange formats often problematic are .avi, .wmv, audio from iTunes, .mp3 etc
    Convert to .aiff first and use this in movie project
    • What kind of standard - NTSC movie and NTSC DVD or PAL to PAL - no mix.
    (If You need to change to do a NTSC DVD from PAL material let JES_Deinterlacer_3.2.2 do the conversion)
    (Dropping a PAL movie into a NTSC iDVD project
    (US) NTSC DVDs most often are playable in EU
    (EU) PAL DVDs most often needs to be converted to play in US
    UNLESS. They are play-backed by a Mac - then You need not to care
    • What kind of DVDs You are using. I use Verbatim DVD-R (this brand AND no +R or +/-RW)
    • How You encode and burn it. Two settings prior iDVD’08 or 09
    Pro Quality (only in iDVD 08 & 09)
    Best / High Quality (not always - most often not)
    Best / High Performances (most often my choice before Pro Quality)
    1. go to iDVD pref. menu and select tab far right and set burn speed to x1 (less errors = plays better) - only in iDVD 08 & 09
    (x4 by some and may be even better)
    2. Project info. Select Professional Encoding - only in iDVD 08 & 09.
    Region codes.
    iDVD - only burn Region = 0 - meaning - DVDs are playable everywhere
    DVD Studio pro can set Region codes.
    1 = US
    2 = EU

    What it turned out to be was the "quality" settings in iDVD. The total clip time was NOT over 2 hours or 4.7GB, yet iDVD created massive visual artifacts on the "professional quality" setting.
    I switched the settings to "high quality" which solved the problem. According iDVD help, "high quality" determines the best bit rate for the clips you have.
    I have NEVER seen iDVD do this before, especially when I was under the 2 hour and 4.7GB limits.
    For anyone else, there seem to be 2 places in iDVD to set quality settings, the first is under "preferences" and the second under "project info." They do NOT seem to be linked (i.e. if you change one, the other is NOT changed). take care, Mario
    to get this to work I
    • Secure a minimum of 25Gb free space on Start-Up (Mac OS) hard disk
    • Use Verbatim DVD-R (absolutely no +/-RW)
    • Set down burn speed to x4 - less burn errors = plays on more devices
    • No other process running in background as - ScreenSaver, EnergySaver OR TIMEMACHINE etc
    • and I'm very careful on what kind of video-codecs, audio file format and photo file formats I use
    • and I consider the iDVD Bug - never go back to video-editor to change/up-date - if so Start  a brand new iDVD project
    • Chapters set as they should - NO one at very beginning and no one in any transition or within 2 sec from it
    • Lay-out - Turn on TV-Safe area and keep everything buttons, titles etc WELL INSIDE not even touching it !
    Try to break the process up into two stages
    • Save as a DiskImage (calculating part)
    • Burn from this .img file (burning stage)
    To isolate where the problem starts.
    Another thing is - Playing it onto a Blu-Ray Player. My PlayStation3 can play BD-disks but not all of my home made DVDs so to get this to work I
    • Secure a minimum of 25Gb free space on Start-Up (Mac OS) hard disk
    • Use Verbatim DVD-R (absolutely no +/-RW)

    TO GET IT TO WORK SLIGHTLY FASTER
    • Minimum of 25Gb free space on Start-Up hard disk
    • No other programs running in BackGround e.g. Energy-Saver
    • Don’t let HD spin down or be turned off (in Energy-Save)
    • Move hard disks that are not to be used to Trash - To be disconnected/turned off
    • Goto Spotlight and set the rest of them under Integrity (not to be scanned)
    • Set screen-saver to a folder without any photo - then make an active corner (up right for me) and set
    pointer to this - turns on screen saver - to show that it has nothing to show
    • No File Vault on - Important
    • NO - TimeMachine - during iMovie/iDVD work either ! IMPORTANT
    • Lot's of icons on DeaskTop/Finder also slows down the Mac noticeably
    • Start a new User-Account and log into this and iMovie get's faster too - if a project is in a hurry
    • And let Mac run on Mains - not just on battery

  • IDVD 09 won't open an Archived project iDVD 08 - Files not found or crashes

    I created a project some time ago in '08 and archived it. I want to open it and make some changes but every time I open it, it shows a series of files it can't find. I can open the package and find these files easily. I have tried copying the assets folder from the archive pkg and then pointing idvd to these files, but it won't allow me to continue.
    This is killing me. Every time I think I'll just sit down and play with my mac I have all these issues.
    Any help is appreciated. It has already sucked away my Saturday.
    Message was edited by: aj_jac

    Strange because iDvd hasn't changed all that much over the months (if not years). But let's give the following a try regardless. You don't by chance happen to have access to '08 version still, do you? Maybe on another hard drive or separate older mac?
    If you simply no longer have the older version, then may I ask if you have tried disposing of the plist for iDvd followed by a complete restart?
    Go to your HOME folder (the one that looks like a house) > Library >Preferences >
    com.apple.iDvd.plist
    Drag and drop this file to the trash and restart your mac. Won't hurt the existing project nor your mac.
    I'll check back with you later, most likely tomorrow. Or someone else may offer to help as well ....
    Good luck!

  • How can I export a finished project from iMovie when the "share" function will not respond?

    Hopefully someone might have an answer for me. I am trying to export a finished project to You Tube. However, when trying to choose the file, it does not show up in the finished project list. I have gone back to iMovie to see if I've made a mistake with finalizing it. It seems to be finalized, but I cannot share it to anything (You Tube, Facebook, iTunes). I click on share and it does not respond. I click on File, scroll down to share, it does nothing. Has anyone else had this problem? How did you reslove it?

    I experienced the same problem as mreingrover. The Share features of iMovie appear to be completely unimplemented.
    I had had MacKeeper installed for a short while on my previous Mac; never on my new MacBook Pro. I could not find any trace of it in Application Support, Launch Daemons, or LaunchAgents, in either my user Library or the root Library. But I figured maybe there was some trace somewhere that had been copied over from the old system, so I deleted iMovie and went to reinstall it from the App Store.
    Now the App Store wants $14.95 for an app that has never worked right, and which is (I think) supposed to be free with my new MacBook Pro Retina.

  • CS3 How to archive finished projects and erase all draft materials without losing final versions.

    I have two questions, both related to system management. The first is simple and the second is more complex.
    First, I hate that every time I open a Premiere Pro project I have to remember to reset the scratch disc settings because they are carried over from the previous project rather than being project-specific.
    Is there a workaround so that the scratch disc settings can be attached to each project so they don’t need to be reset each time one reopens a project?
    Second, I presently distribute my work over four (4) 1-TB drives as follows.
    Drive D contains my Premiere (prproj and related) files as well as Encore (ncor DVD/BD burn files).
    Drive E contains all captured files (transferred from tape).
    Drives F and P are scratch drives where all the preview files are stored, both audio and video.
    Presently, scratch drives F and P are full, project drive D is nearly full, and I am finished editing the projects which occupy these drives. Drive E, however, still has plenty of unused space.
    What I want to do now is to archive the finished projects, along with associated preview files, source clips, and burn files on the E drive, which has plenty of free space remaining. Then I want to delete the project and associated assets from Drive D and erase both scratch drives F & P so that I can reuse those drives for new work.
    To do that I have tried using the Project Manager to “collect files and copy to new location” to collect and copy each project to its own folder on the E drive.
    The problem is that, having done that, and removed the preview files and project files from their original locations, when attempting to open the now relocated projects from their new locations, the relocated projects continue to look for the associated preview files in the old location (drive F or P), even though all the files associated with each relocated project now reside on the same drive in the same folder. It appears that the Project Manager does not associate the preview files and source clips that it relocates with the project files that it relocates.
    Can someone explain this and how best to accomplish my goal of relocating and archiving finished projects along with their associated previews and source materials so that the originals can safely be deleted?
    Thanks.

    Is there a workaround so that the scratch disc settings can be attached to each project so they don’t need to be reset each time one reopens a project?
    Yes.  Upgrade to CS5.5.  (This feature first showed up in CS4.)
    What I want to do now is to archive the finished projects
    You can safely delete everything on the F and P drives.  Previews can simply be rebuilt.  No need to waste space trying to save them.
    Save the project files on the D drive.  Delete the media on E (you can always recapture if you need to rebuild).
    Do not use the Project Manager.  Premiere Pro is an NLE.  Use it for it's intended purpose.  Use a real file manager (Windows Explorer on the PC, Finder on the Mac) to execute file operations.

  • Share/Export finished project to 4:3 format

    I recorded video using the front face camera on my iPad 3 so it would be in 4:3 format.  It plays fine even when I play it on my Windows desktop.  I import these videos into iMovie to make a movie and all is well.  However when I go to save the finished project to the Camera Roll it plays as 16:9 with the 4:3 video pillarboxed.  I am doing this on the iPad 3 so I do not seem to have all of the options I read about in these forums that seem to be in the iMovie Apple/MAC editions, let me know if they are there somewhere else.
    Is there a way to import 4:3 video and have iMovie retain the 4:3 aspect ratio (without the pillarboxing) when exporting to the Camera Roll?

    No, iMovie only edits in HD.
    HD is only in 16:9 aspect ratio.

  • Idvd won't read my quicktime video

    I exported from FCP into Mpeg4 and now idvd won't read the video image on the file (even though it displays the image). the files are not copyrighted. i just need to burn onto a disk so that it can be uploaded later onto the internet. any way to fix my problem or to get around idvd?

    iDVD does not work with mpeg4.
    If the file is less than 4gb simply create a data DVD not a video DVD.

  • How to make "Time of Day" show on my finished project

    I am a private investigator. I shoot surveillance footage using a Canon XH A1 HD Camcorder. I am currently using Adobe Premier Pro and hate it. I need to have the time and date show in the finished project I provide to my clients. The information is on the mini dv tape but doesn't show in my project unless I capture through a Canopus break out box and use analog (RCA) capture cables. When I capture via this method, the project is 4:3 and low quality, not HD. I would like to just capture via firewire as this would give me a higher quality project and a wide screen image.
    I have a MacBook Pro and would make the change to a full Mac Pro and FC or FCE system if I could just get what to me should be a simple thing to actually happen! I could even use iMovie for all of the editing we do is super simple. Can anyone steer me in the right direction. Thanks.

    I do understand your intention, but the "unaltered" image is actually the clean one ie with no time/date stamp displayed ... the display of the embedded time/date stamp data is simply a function of the camera/player and not an intrinsic part of the picture itself. as long as the data you you overlaid manually was accurate then strictly speaking it should be no more or less satisfactory
    Suppose for example, that I could point you to a free plugin that can read and display the embedded data code ... applying it to your video would alter the picture no more an no less than if you had manually applied text generators that displayed that same information ... the filter would just be automating the tedious manual process

  • Audio not appearing in finished project

    I have been working on a video project for a while now, going into extreme details to make a sort of music video. Once the visuals were complete, I added the music. However, after exporting the finished project as a video file, the music was absent, it was just the visuals. What has happened here? Can anyone help?
    Cheers

    This can happen from time to time. Exactly what export settings did you use?
    It seems to me that certain video codecs require certain audio settings, although QT allows you to make wrong choices. For instance, when I exported to AIC, I had to choose PCM to get audio. AAC gave no audio track exported. Conversely when I export to H.264, I have to choose AAC. PCM gave a blank.
