IMovie HD - any advice on problem solving Quicktime files without audio?

Hi,
I'm trying to import several Quicktime video files into iMovie HD and the audio is missing. I know this is because the files are in MPEG-1 Muxed format, which only imports the video portion of movies. My question - are there any ways around this? Can I save the video files in another format so I can access the audio?
Thanks!
ibook G4   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

Hi KCSunshine!
Welcome to discussions!
Can not hear audio in iMovie when I import an MPEG clip

  • Is there any way to create 3D PDF file without having the model tree ?

    Is there any way to create 3D PDF file without having the model tree ?
    3D communication is good but sometime we don't want the receiver to be able to study every components in model.
    or any way to make the receiver cannot use model tree and measurement tool ????
    Thank you very much

    You can remove the assembly tree by doing a roundtrip in 3D Toolkit, here's how:
    - start Acrobat 3D
    - drag & drop a CAD file
    - click on 3D Annot to activate
    - right-click on 3D
    - select 'Edit in 3D Toolkit'
    - 3D Toolkit launches
    - click in 'Scene Tree' panel
    - right-click on top assembly name
    - select 'Tools->Collapse Hierarchy'
    - select 'File->Save'
    - select 'File->Exit'

  • Problem embedding quicktime files

    Hi,
    I run a website with embedded quicktime files at www.tubespot.com. I have a problem viewing the quicktime files using Safari. The page seems to work fine on any other web browser.
    I copied the code for the <object> tag and the <embed> tag straight from trailers.apple.com. And in Safari, if I refresh several times, eventually it will show the video. This is true on any of several macs running Panther and Tiger.
    Also, when I put forth just the <object> tag it works every time. But in the context of my site, it often doesn't show up. I've tried playing with the tag specs to make sure there's way more than enough room, etc., but I cannot seem to make it consistently show up.
    Can anyone look at the code and offer any insight to the problem? Is anyone able to reliably see the videos using Safari?
    Thanks,
    Chris

  • Problems with QuickTime file...

    I have recently tried updating iTunes, but during installation, it told me that there's a problem, and that it needed QuickTime. QuickTime was already installed, so I uninstalled it, downloaded the standalone setup file, and proceeded to install QuickTime again. During installation, it tells me that there's an error, and that it can't find "C:\documents and settings\[username]\local settings\temp\ixp424.tmp\quicktime.msi". I don't have any QuickTime files on my computer, and the iTunes installer won't work either, as QuickTime refuses to install... Can someone please help?

    thanks tom. i am refering to render bar in the timeline, upper for video and lower for audio. May be i shoud describe them as white line gaps between dark grey or steel grey bar color.
    what do you mean by down mixing? please advise

  • Problem viewing Quicktime files after export

    So a few months ago, I finished a number of projects in Final Cut Express.  I exported them as self-contained .mov files and kept those files in their own folder.  Today, I try to open/play those Quicktime files, Quicktime opens and says "loading video", and only audio plays.  No video.  Weird.
    What I want to do is upload these videos to YouTube, so I opened MPEG Streamclip in an attempt to transfer these apparently corrupt files into a .mp4 format.  When I drag and drop the Quicktime files into MPEG Streamclip (the title of the first .mov file I tried is "1 Naitram On the Road to Syndicate"), I get this: "The movie file "1 Naitram On- FIN - 00000002 cannot be found.  Without this file, the movie cannot play properly".
    When I first exported these projects into .mov files a few months back, I was able to watch them in Quicktime.  Now, I cannot.  Why would this be?  Can a file just corrupt like that over time?  Are these files beyond saving?  Thanks..

    Thanks Al..
    The files originally used were imported from my Canon Vixia HF G10; I guess you would call them AVCHD files?  Anyways, when the files were imported, a scratch disc folder as well as a Render Files folder was created.  I arranged the imported clips in my sequence to make a two minute long videos, then exported as self-contained movie files.  Would having tampered with or deleted these Render Files even AFTER exporting have corrupted the QuickTime file?  ....because I may have done that..

  • Problem with QuickTime files

    I'm tring to import some QuickTime files into a CS3 project.
    The files play fine when first put on the timeline, but as soon as I render them the playback flickers.

  • Major Finder Problem for Quicktime Files

    Hey all,
    I have noticed a horrible bug in Finder for Sprited Quicktime files.
    Some background. Some files I download have web 'popups' in the Quicktime file as a marketing campaign. We put a link inside the Quicktime file (you can do so in GoLive) so when it is opened to the end a web link pops up.
    However, Leopard has introduced a bug where if you open a folder that even HAS one of these sprited Quicktime files, it will open my browser and go to the link inside the Quicktime file, even though I did even open the file.
    I know this bug does not effect everyone, but it is a serious bug in the software.

    dude. gotta watch where you download your pornoze!
    heh
    thx for the heads up. havent noticed that yet here. i wonder if this bug is because of quick look...

  • How do I import a quicktime file without it coming up unrendered

    i copied videos from my new Flip to the desktop and they transferred as Quicktime files (AVI). When I import from Final Cut, it shows and plays fine in the preview but is unrendered in the timeline. I have a lot of videos....rendering them all seems extremely and painstakingly slow.

    Hi Tom,
    Flip video is a type of cheap video camera which stores video on a hard drive. It doesn't play well with Macs, so the files always need to be converted to go into Final Cut Express. I've been using MPEGStreamclip for that.
    The problem is that even when they are converted to say a DV file or Quicktime file (as someone above suggested), they will play in the viewer window of FCE but when they go in the timeline, they always need rendered. I'm not sure whether it is because the file is not the right type when I'm converting it, or because there's some setting which isn't correct for my sequence in FCE.
    Any help much appreciated!

  • Record quicktime movie without audio track?

    There are many posts out there trying to troubleshooting when there is no audio during quicktime recording, but there are some scenarios that I would like to do recording without audio track at all. What is the best way to achieve this besides muting my microphone? Thanks!

    Music purchased from iTunes is protected and can't be exported to other formats.

  • Can anyone advise? I have selected to encrypt my data but have forgotten my password so cannot unselect. Any advice how to solve this?

    Got myself locked in encryption and have forgotten password to cancel it. How can I retrieve password.
    Thanks

    Thanks for that I am actually trying to sync data to my new phone ( not an iphone) so I guess unless I remember the password I cannot do it. Does this mean that I cannot access any of the music that I have on Itunes with my new phone. Sorry being a bit thick here.

  • Any one having problems inserting Pages files into iBook author"

    Ever since I updated the Pages a week ago, iBook Author is unable to read Pages files while attempting to insert. Never had a problem in previous versions of Pages or files created a few months ago. The only work around is to copy text and past into new sections in iBook Author. Tedious. Any solution appreciated.

    Very useful info!
    I ran some tests with a new Pages 5 doc saved in both Pages 5 format and exported to Pages 09 format, and iBA had no problem importing them.  So perhaps the problem is confined to older docs.

  • Problem exporting QuickTime file (*.mov)

    When I try to export my Flash animation as a QuickTime movie
    (*.mov) in Flash 8 Professional (or in Flash MX 2004, doesn't
    matter) an error appears stating that an error occured because a
    required QuickTime component could not be found. I have Apple
    QuickTime v7.1.3 (QuickTime Player v7.1.3) installed on my
    computer. In my "F:\Program Files\QuickTime\QTComponents"

    do I need to download another component or version of QuickTime? In
    my "F:\Program Files\Macromedia\Flash 8\Players" directory, I only
    have Flash Play 8, do I need to have the QuickTime player there as
    well? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

  • Problems with Quicktime files

    Hi everybody,
    I have a huge problem with the quicktime. Some week ago I wanted to download the last version of QTime.
    I donloaded the 7 version but I could not install. So I deleted some files from the quicktime folder library of the computer
    and now I have other version 7 of quicktime and the quicktime X but the verson 7 doesn't work and the X does. But my big
    problem is, that my web cam doesn't work and also doesn't work when I want to use processing with the webcam, and I need it
    for a project that I am doing.
    What I need to install in my computer to restore it?
    Which libraries for the mac I need?
    If anybody can help me I really appreciate it.
    Thanks for your time
