IMovie 11 PIP Clip Transition Problem?

OK I have several clips all having one continuous pip of a water mark .png file.
Before inserting this, my transition between clips ran perfectly, I used swap, love the effect for my customers. Now, since adding my PIP of my png, none of the transition work between clips.
Anyone have an idea around this, thanks all, love this forum.

what do you recomment for the highest quality, to then import back
What are the specs of the footage you used in your movie?
I would try the two highest quality presets in Share>Media Browser.

IPad iMovie Clip Transition Problems

iMovie works great but if I overlap one clip with another I cannot select any clips at all or exit back to the marque (select my projects) button. The only button selectable is undo. If I undo enough until the clips no longer overlap then I can once again select clips for editing and select the my projects buttons. What's wrong?

IMovie HD- splitting clips massive problem...please help

Hello, I wonder if anyone can help as this problem is really driving me mad. I am using Imovie 6.03 HD and OS X 10.85 on my Macbook Pro i5 but the problem has happened on my Mac Pro and with previous systems I seem to remember.
When I split a clip in two, and delete the unwanted clip the position of the remaining clip completely changes even though it tells me it is the exact same length. I have tried deleting in different ways, I even removed all my slick plugins but still the same, I end up with the clip beginning at a different point in my footage.
Anybody have any ideas? Thanks in advance.

What you have is an iMovie '06 Project package (a special folder) and iMovie '09 can't import it.
You'll need to export the Project to a QuickTime format (DV Stream is best for compatibility) on the G5 and transfer the QuickTime file to the USB drive.
This process will render any effects, transitions and audio/video into the new file so you will not be able to edit them out. Make sure the Project is a close to finished as possible.

IMovie 11 export unsync, transition problem, and sound problem

Hi all. I have done a 1 hour and 36 min long movie on my weeding and it's made of around 80 "clips", where in some places the original sound is used and in some places external sound is placed instead. In some places iMovie text boxes is used and in some places the video has filters and slow motion (so a lot of random filters, effects, etc and chapters).
So my problem? 3 weeks ago I wanted to just test the video before doing everything done and exported it as mov HD1080 and it worked good on other devices. When improvements done I tried to export it again. But as it is now, when I export is, regardless if its to iDVD, iTunes, MOV HD720 or 1080, and regardless if its "finilized" first or not, or if its shared to "media library", the transitions is not working (un sync) and the sound is fading out to 0% during all the transitions before up to the original level.
I have for real exported the film more than 25 times and average export time is 6 hours due to the high quality and the time duration.
When just in the project view looking and listening, everything is just perfect. As soon as I finilize the project, or export it, even in the project preview it doesnt work. I also tested to install miDVD pro (10$) and WonderShare DVD Creator (39$) to just sharing the project to them, but the result was the same.
I just want to be able to export it as it is in the project.
I have macbook 13, moutain lion, iMovie 11
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance!

I have iMovie '11 and cannot create a HD 1080p movie. I've got a 27" iMac with a 2.93 GHz Intel Core i7 processor (I purchased this computer last month). I tried like crazy to export the HD movie last night (it's one of the new trailers -- the one that looks like Indiana Jones & it's less than 1 minute long) but no dice due to a "HEAP" error. I tried to export the movie a couple of times this morning. It went a little further in the rendering until the HEAP error popped up again (this was from a fresh reboot). The really odd thing is that when I render it in HD 720p, my movie clips are black. No video. The built-in trailer stuff from iMovie '11 is there, just none of my clips show up (they're all black).

IMovie moving audio clips when transitions are added

iMovie moving audio clips when transitions are addedI have some video clips that need simple fades to black added at the end. However, whenever I add the fade out transition, iMovie does something insane. Instead of the last two seconds of video fading to black and the last two seconds of audio fading out, it seems that a random two seconds of audio from elsewhere in the clip is tacked onto the end and faded. This problem is nuts and I am having no luck finding a solution. Does anyone have one? This has happened with other transitions, but I’d settle for just getting a fade to black to work properly. Is this only a problem with Intel machines?

The problem that you describe has come up frequently on this forum. There are lots of things people have tried, but no solution has been found, other than the workaround of extracting the audio, as Klaus 1 mentions, and manually adjusting the fade out. Some feel that it is an intel machine problem, but that is not clear.
For more information on this issue, try using the search function of this forum, typing in "audio echo with transitions", or some other appropriate search words. You might find of interest the information contained in the following post:

Imovie clip transitions

i have imovie '09 and i am trying to set my clip transitions to an exact place in the music but can't figure out how... any suggestions?

A transition has a start and end, and takes time. For this reason it is hard to experience a transition as taking place at a certain time.
On the other hand, it can be very effective to have clips that use a "jump cut" or instant cut to the next clip on the beat.
To do this, use the Beat Marker feature if iMovie 09 or iMovie 11.
Here is a good Tutorial.
Here is a sample.

Imovie'11 PIP won't place video clip on timeline

Using Imovie'11 (on latest version) and YES I have advance features turned on:
I want to add a PIP clip (or cutaway or side by side). When I drag a new clip over it and let go the new clip goes before (or after) the existing clip. I don't get the popup sub menu to add the PIP cutaway etc.
I tested with a photo and it works fine - so I know I have advance features turned on.
Any thoughts/help?
Thanks !!!

Hi
Just a vild thought.
Project window set in:
- Timeline mode (one row of thumbnails) - or -
- in wrapped mode - several rows of thumbnails

When I create a new project in iMovie and drop clips into it, it plays the first one and then quits right near the end of the second clip. I have re-started my computer, tried a new project etc, and no luck, does anyone know how to fix this issue?

This is a part of the larger MacBook Pro connectivity issue. There are several related threads dealing with the MBP's networking problems. If your unit is suffering from this type of difficulty, good luck ... (or a long ethernet cable)
(PS Everybody please make noise on this one so apple comes up with a solution.)

Audio fade in and out in imovie 11 with a transition not working

When I fade audio out and fade audio in imovie 11 with a transition in between the fade would not work. If I remove the transition they would work. How can I fix this. If i reinstall life 11 would it lose my would or repair the issue.

I am having the same problem. I found a decent workaround:
At the point where you want to fade out, record a voiceover (using a mic) of silence. In other words, cover the microphone and record nothing for a second or two.
Then go into the audio settings for this voiceover and select the "ducking" checkbox, and change the setting so that all other tracks go to 0% sound when the voiceover is playing. The ducking feature has a built-in fader, so this way, when the silent voiceover comes on, it fades out the other track(s)--effectively giving you a fade-out effect on any concurrent track.
Not a perfect solution but can help...good luck!

To save hard drive space, can I put my iMovie projects and clips on an external drive?

to save hard drive space, can I put my iMovie projects and clips on an external drive?

Yes.
To preserve your projects, all moves should be done from within iMovie, (not the Finder).
First, the external drive must be formatted as Mac OS Extended (journaled). FAT32 will not work. You can reformat using Disk Utility if you need to.
When importing video from your camera, you can specify your external drive as the target on the import screen.
For existing projects, you should move using these instructions.
http://help.apple.com/imovie/#move7d66613
There is an error in the instructions where it says to drag the project icon to the icon in the Event Library. You should instead look for your hard drive icon in the Project Library.
You can move events using these instructions.
http://help.apple.com/imovie/#mov3ac6d42c
If you want to move Events, and copy photos, copy music, etc for editing on another Mac, you should use the FILE/CONSOLIDATE MEDIA feature after moving the Project as above.

Hello. I have an iPad2, and iMovie software. My main problem, for the moment, is the length of the videos: I can´t create a video with more than 56 seconds. When I try, the app shuts off... Can anyone help me?

Sorry. We can't help you. It's no longer an iPhone. Apple won't touch it.
Take it to whoever replaced the screen and see if they can help you.
iPhones are not user servicable and Apple does not sell iPhone parts at all. I'd be surprised if you were actually able to back it up at this point. It sounds like it's completely borked.

Convert iMovie to QT clip that PC's and Mac's can view

I am not too familiar with QT and its capabilities and have a question.
From one clip of an iMovie of my boys football game I created a 15 sec. QT movie and emailed it to my son. He could open it on his PC but when he sent to his friends who also have PC's neither could open it.
I looked on my QT Pro choices under '>file > export' to convert to some other more PC friendly file but ran into a wall. It lists a number of options but which one do I choose?
All my software is the latest version.
Harold

Thanks to all who have responded,
I had planned to create short movie clips for emailing but wanted something quick and easy to do so.
It would be great if I could from iMovie select a clip and share to QT then email the results but it seems that each time I will have to work on the clip to prepare it for sharing. I dont want to go to that much trouble each time so I doubt I will use this means.
I dont understand why it is not easy to do so. Each time I try to open a QT clip in WMP it says it cant use the file. I had hoped it would convert the movie to MPV or better if QT would convert to something other than files most PCs wont open. There are now four PC users that cant open the file and one that can. 1 out of 5 is not too impressive.
By the way, I dont know what Sorenson is.
I create numerous iMovies but never use QT even though I keep buying Pro each system upgrade just in case.
Is there a quicker solution to sharing by email?

I create a project w/iMovie and I have two problems: When I try to finalize the project iMovie crashes; when I share to DVD sometimes it crashes also; if I can successfully send it to DVD and then burn a DVD there are wavy lines on the screen. Help!

You can split a project in two by doing this.
1) Go to the Project Library View.
2) Select your project, and click FILE/DUPLICATE PROJECT. Give it a name like "your project name - part 1".
3) Do this again. This time name it "your project name - part 2"
4) Open Part 1 for editing. Delete everything in the second half.
5) Open Part 1 for editing. Delete everything in the first half of the project.
At the end you should have your original project, plus the same project in two parts.

Has the clip marker problem been resolved in Premiere cs6?

Has the clip marker problem been resolved in Premiere CS6. As of early July, it was not! Navigating, synchronizing clips seems impossible.

Explain your problems with markers in this feature request form: http://www.adobe.com/go/wish
Sorry, that's all I can offer you.
TrueFriction wrote:
I'd just like to add my voice to the chorus here - namely that Marker functionality for CS6 is extremely lacking, and has made my workflow for various tasks much longer and more tedious.
In my case I'm trying to match professional footage of a concert with audience-submitted cell phone footage. The pro footage can't be synced with the non-pro footage via Pluraleyes because the cell phone audio is way too high to be analyzed properly. Hence I need to manually sync, which I can't do efficiently because I can't put clip markers on the pro footage once it's synced in pluraleyes and sent back into Premiere, because it only exists in a sequence.
I have no idea why Adobe would remove a function used daily by its editors, one that was simple and reliable, for no reason.
And what's puzzling is that there's been not even an acknowledgement of the issue from anyone at Adobe for 8 months.
This doesn't make any sense. Usually customer service from Adobe is much better than this. Why no action on this one issue?
BTW, if you want to add Clip Markers to clips in the Timeline, you can set a keyboard shortcut for that.
