IMovie and Perian

How important is to have Perian installed on my computer for iMovie and quicktime?

only needed you like to handle 'non QT supported' codecs, as DivX for example.
Perian is popular for people using lots of 'downloads' ..

  • IMovie and Final Cut Pro unexpectedly when importing 720p MPEG files

    I'm running iMovie/FinalCutPro on Yosemite. Every time I try and import a 720p MP4 with 60FPS both programs quit unexpectedly while generating the thumbnails. The files I am using have run/imported without any problems into Quicktime, VLC, Adobe Premiere and my brother's iMovie on his Macbook Pro machine.
    What I have done in no particular order:
    1. Cache/preferences cleaning
    2. Re-install iMovie
    3. Delete all codecs except AIC and AppleMPEG2
    4. Install codecs (Perian, divx, xvid)
    5. Delete Flash Player
    6. Repair permissions
    7. Repair hard drive in safe mode
    8. Delete iPhoto database, tinker with GarageBand
    9. I logged in as a guest user and the problem persists
    10. 540p MP4 with 30FPS and that had no problem importing into iMovie
    I believe I have isolated the issue to a quicktime engine that is either corrupted or defective that is causing both iMovie and Final Cut Pro to crash. I could use Adobe Premiere or another machine, but I prefer iMovie and would like it to work on my machine. The only solution I can think of is reinstalling the OS, but I really am against that.
    Let me know if you have any other ideas. Please see the Problem Report below:

    I'm sorry my thread title is so bad. What I meant is "iMovie and Final Cut Pro quit unexpectedly when importing 720p MP4 files"
    Cheers

  • Imovie and mp4 files

    I have a bunch of MP4 files that I want to use for projects in imovie but it says I need to open them with imovie and make them able to be shared. I can't open them with imovie- how can I use them?

    yes, all of these would work
    1-quick and simple method: Have Perian installed. Open video clip in quick time player. save as movie.
    2-slightly more elaborate method. Use Mpeg streamclip. Save as Movie, or whatever
    3- let me help you out here- there might have been something called "IMovie help"
    but if not, I'll try to get you started.
    a- get iMovie working
    b- go to File, then Import, then Movies, then pick your video clip, and wait until it has
       finished importing (the lower box). after it has done so, and all of it has appeared
        in the lower box, then press command-A there to select all, move the mouse 
        over to the front of the video clip, which should have a slight yellow border around all of it, until you see a hand. click and drag from the bottom box, to the top box, and the video clip should go up to the top box. make sure you have advanced controls turned on. move the mouse to the front of the video clip in the top box to the blue things you will see there, or double click, and you should get a popup menu for audio and video adjustment. After adjusting the video and audio
    (don't get me started on how to snip out clips you don't want), and after clicking 'done" then go to the top of the screen, and you should see something called "SHARE" under that you can choose either Export via quicktime or Export as movie
    and either way ought to work, depending on what your needs are, and let it export that movie and you should have a video clip ready to go
    that concludes today's little lesson on basic iMovie use, please pay your instructor before leaving the classroom
    thanks and goodnight

  • I just finished creating a movie in IMovie and now want to burn it to a DVD and make it loop.  Since I just purchased this IMac it no longer comes with IDVD.  My question is how to burn and loop a dvd without IDVD.  Thanks for any help.

    I just finished creating a movie using IMovie and want to burn it to a DVD and loop it.  Since I just purchased this mac it looks like they no longer include IDVD.  Is there something out there to help me do this.  I am new to MAC and any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks

    There is free open source software called Burn that will burn DVDs. Here is a link.
    If you wish to pay for software, there are many, including TOAST TITANIUM from Roxio. Apple's retail copy of iLife 11, and Apple's Compressor.
    Of these, I would say that iDVD is known for being able to create very professional looking DVDs with intros, menus, lots of interesting templates.
    Toast is much simpler and the menus and templates are more plain.
    Compressor is a professional tool that does a lot more than make DVDs. Don't expect much in the way of menus or templates.
    Burn, I have never tried, since I have iDVD and Toast for those ocasions when I need to burn a DVD. However, since it is free, I think it is worth a try.
    Each software package is a little different, but in general, in iMovie, you can use the SHARE menu to SHARE/MOVIE in Large size. Save the movie to your desktop or someplace you can easily find it. Then drag it into the tool of your choice. You can alsouse SHARE/MEDIA BROWSER/LARGE if you have iDVD or Toast.

    I have a new macbook pro and just made a video on imovie and it asked me to put it on idvd but there is no idvd listed as an option. How can i get idvd. it doesn't seem available

    Since Apple has stopped supporting and offering iDVD you'll need to purchase the iLIfe 11 disk from a 3rd party retailer like Amazon.com: iLife 11 which will include iDVD 7.

  • I am trying to Show Package contents of iMovie and it freezes at the hr.lprog folder

    While doing a virus scan my machine would freeze on the file
    Applications/iMovie/Contents/Resource/hr.lprog/Title-SidewaysDrifting.nib/keyedo bjects.nib.
    Bitdefender said to send them the file.
    I am able to "Show package contents" of iMovie, and open the Contents and Resources folder. When I try to open the hr.lprog folder, I get the spinning beach vball of death and I have to reboot my machine using the power button.
    Does anyone have an idea what might be causing this and how to fix it?
    Is the hr.lprog folder just the language files for Croatia? If so, can I safely delete them, or is there more to it?

    My guess would be that your hard drive has become corrupt, and the corruption is affecting something about that folder or its contents such that when the Finder tries to display them, it crashes. I would recommend immediatelyrepairing with Disk Utility. Also, if you don't have any backups, now would be a good time to start, before something bad happens.
    If repairing the hard drive doesn't work, I would try deleting and reinstalling iMovie.
    Also, note that I don't recommend BitDefender. Read my Mac Malware Guide, and if after reading that you want to have anti-virus software, use one of the programs it recommends. BitDefender has performed poorly in my anti-virus software testing, both in the first round and the second round of testing.

  • I exited iMovie and lost my project.  I am able to find it in Finder, under the Movies tab, but can not get it back to a project in iMovie.  Is there a way to restore it?

    Please help!  I exited iMovie and lost my project that I've been working on for days... I am able to find it in "Finder" under iMovie Projects... but I am unable to open it as a Project in iMovie.  I am using iMovie '11, with no time machine, and I'm on a MacBook Pro.

    I fully sympathise with you, as I recently experienced the same issue (as have many others).
    Projects always appear as normal in Finder in the Home folder Movies/iMovie Projects (or on an external disk at the top level in Movies/iMovie Projects). Nothing looks untoward there.
    However, when iMovie is opened again after an editing session, the most recent project worked on does not appear in the listing of projects in iMovie's Project Library - although it is still listed in the Finder folder . This happens for no apparent reason - no unexpected quits, freezes, or crashes, and nothing else out of the ordinary. iMovie is simply not recognizing the project. It can't even be opened by double-clicking on the project in Finder.
    Here are a number of links to other topics on this issue (there may be others I've missed):

    Sorry to bombard you with all these links, but as you will see there are others here reporting the same problem. No solution has been forthcoming unfortunately.
    Be sure to provide feedback to Apple - in iMovie's menu click on iMovie > Provide iMovie Feedback, then complete the online form.

  • Updated to iLife '08 and now iMovie and iDVD won't Start

    I received a copy of iLife '08 for Christmas and finally got around to upgrading today. The new iPhoto works just fine but when I try to start iMovie, it crashes (I have included part of the Problem Report below). I have tried restarting and it doesn't help. Then I tried to start iDVD and it flashes the "Welcome" / "Open" screen and then quits before I can do anything -- no error report. Any ideas on how to:
    1) Fix both programs so they will launch -OR-
    2) Restore the old versions of iMovie and iDVD

    Im just guessing but it seems like you would have to get your movie into the correct folder on a computer then use iTunes to sync it to your iPad. If you've synced to a computer and have movies then on your computer should be a folder with the movie in it. You could export your iMovie to something like Dropbox then download from Dropbox to the folder you think it needs to be in the sync your iPad again. Again this is just a guess. Others may have a better answer.

  • Best Practices for sharing media with iMovie and FCPX

    So I've a large iMovie Events directory, and would like to use that media with both iMovie and FCPX projects.
    I'd rather not duplicate the media, so would prefer to import as references into FCPX.
    The dilemma is that I see that it's possible to modify or move media from within the iMovie application, and therefore break the reference to that media with FCPX.
    I only see two options:  (1) Never Ever modify the location/name of media in the iMovie Events file (even from within the iMovie app) since I would break an FCPX link if that media is referenced, or (2) always import (copy) the iMovie events into the FCPX Event Library making an independent original so that I can confidently operate on those media files in either application.
    I'd surely rather not have to do (2 )(e.g. doubling my storage demands) to gain the flexibility of using either application to edit the video, but really don't want to live with the restrictions of (1).
    Thoughts / Solutions?  What might you consider as options or best practices?

    Unless there is some other reason, users should own the right to share their mailboxes - it shouldn't be something that demands administrator management (if only so that the administrators aren't swamped by user requests for sharing their mailboxes). 
    For true shared mailboxes, when the mailbox is created, full access is granted by an administrator.

  • Sharing from iMovie and getting a total blank

    Hi. I sort of have two questions. One that's bothered me ever since first fiddling around with iMovie and iDVD is why when I open a DVD project after having closed it before does it always give me a new name. The first one is project.dvdproj. The next is project 1.dvdproj. The next is project 2.dvdproj. How can I avoid this?
    At the same time, though, if I make some changes in iMovie and want to send it to iDVD, do I need a new name each time? Can I set something to where it just automatically replaces the one that came before?
    Now the main question. This new version of iDVD is so much harder for me to intuit. (And the help menus don't always help a whole lot, either.) A couple weeks ago I made an iMovie that needed no chapters, so when I "shared" it to iDVD, I had no "Play Movie" button or anything. I finally figured out that I had to add the movie seperately. (How is that "sharing" then?!) Currently I have an iMovie which I'm ready to make a DVD of. I shared it to iDVD and it gave me the "Play Movie" button, as well as the "Scene Selections" button. Great! But then I had to stop working and I wasn't happy with some of the submenus, so I decided to just quit without saving anything because I wanted to start from scratch. Now, when I try to go from iMovie to iDVD and "share" it, I'm getting a total blank. No "Play Movie" button, no "Scene Selections" button. I really don't want to have to put them in myself. Can someone please, please help?! I'm more than frustrated by all this. I just want to get the thing done.
    Thank you for any help you can give!

    Hello, yvonne,
    Welcome to the discussions.
    why when I open a DVD project after having closed it before does it always give me a new name. The first one is project.dvdproj. The next is project 1.dvdproj. The next is project 2.dvdproj. How can I avoid this?
    iDVD will ask you to name a new project when you first create it. You need to be sure you 'save' it before closing it. Then, you should be able to open it by clicking on the project with the name you gave it. The DVD projects usually save to your 'documents' folder by default.
    At the same time, though, if I make some changes in iMovie and want to send it to iDVD, do I need a new name each time? Can I set something to where it just automatically replaces the one that came before?
    Once your movie is in a DVD project and then you make edits to the movie, you should receive a message when you open that iDVD project that iDVD has detected changes and it will ask if you want iDVD to update. You can then click yes/ok.
    Currently I have an iMovie which I'm ready to make a DVD of. I shared it to iDVD and it gave me the "Play Movie" button, as well as the "Scene Selections" button. Great! But then I had to stop working and I wasn't happy with some of the submenus, so I decided to just quit without saving anything because I wanted to start from scratch. Now, when I try to go from iMovie to iDVD and "share" it, I'm getting a total blank. No "Play Movie" button, no "Scene Selections" button.
    When you are finished with your current iMovie, make your chapter markers and then save and close your movie. Don't send it to iDVD from WITHIN iMovie.
    Open iDVD and select your theme. Then, using the 'Media' tab, navigate to 'Movies' and select your movie and drag it into iDVD's main screen. Be sure not to drop it into a 'DROP ZONE.'
    That may have been what you did when you did not get the title or scene selections. You do not need to create these yourself.
