IMovie 10: how to export in 1080P

I use iMovie 10.0.3
In the export settings, it will only allow me to choose between SD / 540P and HD 720P, the option for HD 1080P is there but greyed-out (cannot be selected).
Can anyone explain to me, why that is and how I can change this to export at the hightest quality?
Oh, and why is there not a dedicated forum for 10.0.3?
Thanks!

Hi guys, just answered my own question, after looking around, click on the project then went to properties in the inspector. This then allowed me to choose the Preset which i then set to be 1080... That was the answer .

IMovie not letting me export in 1080p

I'm working on a imovie project that previously was able to share to a 1080p file. Now it only has the option of 720p. All my original clips are 1080p so I'm not sure how to share in 1080p.

I believe the resolution setting of a project is determined by the first added movie clip. From then on it can't be changed. You can see the setting by selecting the project icon and choosing Info from above the viewer on the right.
Is your project set to 720p? If so it won't let you share to a higher resolution.
From what you say it seems that my first statement may not be correct but try creating a new project, putting a single 1080p clip in it and immediately checking the resolution setting for the project. If it is 1080p I think you will find that you can copy everything from your problem project to the new project, (deleting that first clip if you need to afterwards) and you will still be set to 1080p.
Let me know if it works.

IMovie 09: How to export one single project

When I export as an mp4 or m4v, it actually exports ALL my projects. While viewing, if I click on the back button, it will switch to another video project. Only in QT can I export one at a time. I want to distribute only the one project not my whole repertoire. How do I do this?

Here's what I would do....
1) Drag all 25 clips to one sequence (5-10 seconds)
2) Right click on each clip, one at a time, and choose Nest (2-3 minutes)
3) Double-click on the first clip, which will open it's nested sequence on the timeline. Go to File>Export, then choose all your export settings and file-save location. Now click on Queue to start Adobe Media Encoder. After beginnig the export of the first clip, the export settings will remain the same for any clips you export after it, until you change the export settings again.
4) Repeat Step 3 for each remaining clip, excepting that you will not need to do export settings and file-save location again.
Total time: 15-20 minutes. Rendering time will vary.

Can't export to 1080p video in iMovie

I've imported a video taken with my iPhone 4s into iMovie 11. I confirmed the video is actually 1080p. In iMovie I then select Share -> Export Movie, the only size available is "Large 720 x 540" or smaller. Since this was 1080p video to begin with, shouldn't I be able to export it as 1080p?
So, I searched and found a youtube video describing how to export 1080p video using QuickTime. I followed the video step by step, but when I got the the part to select H.264 format, that format was unavailable.
What do I have to do to export 1080p video?
I don't recall this being a problem in the past.

Hi
Im curious about this point. I recently imported some video from a 5S, the option on my mac said, import as large or original, when i checked orginal I got a warning saying it may lose quality on playback so I checked large. I want to keep the quality from the 5S so I can export to itunes and watch on my HD tv with apple TV, by checking large does that decrease quality or is it the correct default?
My macbook is non-retina so I am assuming the playback quality it refers to is on my mac. I have changed the default to original even with the playback warning - is this correct?

I have Adobe Elements 9 and I used to be able to export HD 1080p videos with no issue. But recently, when I export using H.264 MPEG or MPEG 2, which I normally used, the high resolution videos come out very choppy. How can i fix this?

mr
Are you running the 9.0.1 Update of the program and on what computer operating system is it running?
Is your video card/graphics card driver up to date according to the manufacturer of the card?
Is your computer optimized, including maintenance of pile ups of preview files, conformed audio files, and conformed video files?
Do you have the latest version of QuickTime installed on your computer with Premiere Elements 9.0/9.0.1?
What are your project settings and what are the properties of your source media? When you say that "used to be able to export...." is that on the same computer, same brand/model/settings for the camera recording the video now in use, same Premiere Elements 9.0/9.0.1?
Where player are you using for the playback of these exports?
Please give us more details on the size of the projects (then and now) as well as details of the customized export settings in your Share/Computer/ route. Premiere Elements 9.0/9.0.1 is only a 32 bit application running in 32 bit or 64 bit system. Not sure if computer resources might be taxed more so now than before.
More later.

How to export an IMovie as a small file quicktime movie

I have searched and searched for answers or tutorials explaining how to export an IMovie as a quicktime movie that is small enough for emailing and posting to the internet. If I use the default setting my quicktime movie ends up being over 500MB which is way to large for sharing. I tried exporting using the "custom" or "compression" settings but don't understand what H 264,DV Pal, etc. means.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

To get a movie to that size, you can 1) make it shorter. 2) make it a smaller dimension. Like scale it down from 1920x1080 to 320x240 3) Take away quality by reducing the bit rate, reducing the number of key frames, etc. 4) Reduce the frame rate from 30 frames per second down to maybe 15 frames per second. The resulting movie would be postage stamp size and not very good. Use h.264 because it compresses very well.
By far the best way to send a movie is to post it to YouTube or similar site in full resolution and then link to it in your email.

How to export keynote to imovie

I did an animated presentation in keynote, and want to sync an audio that I made in garage band. But now that I've finally gotten the timing right in keynote, I can't export it directly to imovie! I only saw choices to export it as a QuickTime movie. Then when I tried to "save your movie to iMovie" I got an export progress error message that said it couldn't be copied to "iMovie" - I put days into this project, and I worried that it went for naught! Please help!
Thanks-

The source is DV 16:9. I've adjusted the resolution to 360:202 and compressed with Sorenson to a QT 512 streaming clip. The resolution is very good and I don't have any issues with the video. I've imported the video clip into Keynote and assembled the title sequence. It looks good with no blurring or choppiness. The problem comes when I export. The timing goes off and the length of the entire video clip is increased. I've also had problems with Keynote when exporting. It seems to be inconsistent and will drop the last title, even though the preview worked fine. I've worked around the problem by importing the title slides with out the transitions and then going into Final Cut. I'd like to keep the title transitions that I had in Keynote . Any thoughts? Thanks, Jeff

Yahoo......got my new iMovie 11 today and it support 1080p

Yahoo......got my new iMovie 11 today and it support 1080p export
ok Apple...where the blu-ray 1080p burner...please....

This is a great comment. 1080P seems to be pretty much the standard now on HD TV sets so it was great to see iMovie finally supporting 1080P. The question now is how to actually get that 1080P resolution on your TV set. You can't burn it onto a DVD of course. You could upload the 1080P video to Youtube but again, how do you view it on your TV? I have an (old) Apple TV and that can connect to Youtube but it won't support 1080P, only 720P.
Supposedly, an XBOX 360, which I also have, will play video in 1080P. Microsoft has their own issues and even though my XBOX has a 250GB hard drive, there is no way to get any home video footage onto that hard drive. Microsoft doesn't support that.
Thoughts anyone?

Error -49 when exporting in 1080p

I'm unable to export my movie, I keep getting an error -49 each time I try to export in 1080p. What's this error code and how can I solve this? I tried exporting on my desktop and on another hard drive. I also tried rebooting my computer and reloading iMovie '11.

Easiest way to get around this problem is to temporarily turn off the Time Machine backup on your Mac while working on and exporting the video project. Once it finishes and you are done working in iMovie, turn Time Machine back on.

What QT7 settings do I use to export a 1080p video for playback on iPhone4? I'm using the iPhone to playback 1080p video on 1080p monitor. Is this possible?

Does anyone know what settings I should use to export a 1080p video for playback on iPhone4? I'm hoping to use the iPhone4 to playback 1080p video on 1080p monitor. Is this possible?
I have previously saved my .mov file as Apple TV, but the quality is reduced from 1920x1080 to 960x540. I was unable to sync the higher quality file to my phone (and am worried this is the limitation of the hardware). I added this file to iTunes, added to a playlist, and sync'd to my iPhone. The playback works but the resolution is obviously a lower quality.Is it possible to keep the higher quality for playback through a 1920x1080 hd monitor? Otherwise, would I be able to sync a 1920x1080 mov file to a new iPad or other device? Thanks in advance to your answers.

No. Only the iPhone 4S, iPad3, and TV3 currently support 1080p30 content. Even then the 1080p30 playback support for your monitor may depend on how the device is connected. The iPhone 4 is limited to 720p30 playback.
Is it possible to keep the higher quality for playback through a 1920x1080 hd monitor? Otherwise, would I be able to sync a 1920x1080 mov file to a new iPad or other device?
Not on your current device. As previously stated, the latest generation of iPhone, iPad, and TV devices support a maximum 1080p30 playback capability but may be limited to lower resdolutions depending on your method of connection to your monitor. This information can be found on the Apple web site TechSpecs page for each respective device.

How to export as a .mp4 file in good quality?

Hi,
I want to produce a video as a .mp4 file which suits best for the webb.
How to export a project from iMovie as a .mp4 file in a GOOD quality and original size or ratio?
What to do?
I went to Share-export with Quick Time and changed the file format to MPEG4 but the quality is really bad. The size is small 300x200 something and picture quality is really bad.
How to produce a video easiest in iMovie which suits best for the webb (in HD quality). Not all people have Quick Time so .mov is not suitable. And .m4v files don't play very well on webb. They get stuck.
What to do?
Thankful for your help.

Today I started this project, and garageband no longer has "export movie" as a choice,
Are you now using GarageBand 10.0?
Then import the movie,
Track menu > Show Movie Track
File menu > Movie > Open Movie
Mix the sound track song
Then use the "File" menu > Movie > Export Audio to Movie.
This will write the audio aa an audio track into the imported movie.
