Imported video into presentation with mixed results

I've been able to get videos into Keynote through syncing with iPhoto and making sure to include videos. They play in the slides but eventually stop playing. They flash once like they are trying to start but I'm left with just a still photo. If delete it and insert again it still won't play. I had to import my PPT file again and then insert before the video would play again. However, eventually they refuse to play again. I'm trying to track down the cause but I'm at a loss and I wanted to present at a conference today with my shiny new iPad.

Noticed a possible solution to the video issues on this thread:

  • Trying to import messages to mail, with mixed results...

    I have a new laptop, so I'm trying to transfer the Archive folder in Mail (on my old laptop) to the new laptop. Both are running the latest versions of Mountain Lion.
    There are 20,000 messages in the Archive. But when I export it, and then import on the new machine, I'm left with only 5000 of the most recent ones.
    Here's the process I'm following - am I doing something wrong?
    1. Select Archive on old Mac
    2. Right click, Export Mailbox, save the mbox file to external hard drive.
    3. Plug external hard drive into new Mac.
    4. File > Import Mailboxes > Import Data from Apple Mail, select mbox file and Continue.
    5. An Import folder is created in Mail, but with only 5000 messages rather than the 20,000 I started with.
    Any ideas, friends?

    Thank you Alberto, I will try that tomorrow. I just assumed that export/import would, you know, export/import. But your way sounds way more intuitive .

    You can do this with a free app called MPEG Streamclip and a $20 quicktime component from Apple.

  • Which is the better way to import videos into FCPX?

    Hello to all. I have recently purchased an iPhone 5 and while importing videos, I could import them directly via the camera import of FCPX which was open at that time.
    Later, when I tried to import a few stillshots, I found that I could not do it directly with FCPX importing into an event: reason being FCPX would not read the still photos. I learnt from the internet that one could import photos/videos from iPhone either through iPhoto or image capture. I tested out both of them and learnt that I could get my phoyos into FCPX via either of them.
    My question is this: is it better for me to import videos into FCPX directly or to first save them on an external HD via image capture? Will there be any effect in the quality of the video in these two different methods of import?
    Thanks in advance.

    You have already pocketed my thanks in advance Tom! The early bird catches the worm! Awake so early? Have a great day.

  • Problems importing video into Lightroom 5.3

    I am using LR 5.3 on a Macbook running Mavericks.  Since upgrading from Lightroom 4 I have had trouble importing videos into Lightroom. 
    The generic video thumbnail appears, but the import hangs and never completes.  When cancelling the import the error message is shown "No photos or video were found to import."
    After reading on various forums I have tried:
    restarting computer (many times)
    uninstalling previous version of LR
    purging video cache
    changing source location
    changing destination and/or import type
    reinstalling LR5.3
    I have also noted that old videos already in the catalogue that played fine in LR4 won't play back in LR5.3.  They play fine in Quicktime.
    Has anyone else solved this problem?

    So going over it might enlighting you on the issue. Also i would suggest to start with the Basic Troubleshoot for Playback issues on Lightroom: http://helpx.adobe.com/lightroom/kb/troubleshoot-video-issues-lightroom-4.html
    If you have Lightroom 4 still installed, Also make sure that you can still use the footage in the original L4 catalog.
    See if the files still work fine in the "old" version.
    Hopefully it will help you to fix the issue.

  • Problems importing video into Event....

    Hi,
    I've used iMovie loads but recently I've had issues importing video into an event.
    I choose "import", choose the video (from GoPro) and then it takes 2-3 hours to import maybe half of the clips but not all.  I am importing no more than 7 clips at a time and these clips are 17 minutes each.
    Are the clips too big?
    Please help.

  • Importing Video into iMovie using Mac the Ripper

    How do I import video into iMovie using Mac the Ripper? I ripped the video content onto my computer but it was not converted into a file that I can import.

    I think it's trend for all users since we can get more funny from digital life. Also it's necessary sometimes for us to save our video or dvd files with other methods, i have no idea but use something like converters.To my experience, mactheripper is not what you want,maybe you can try this dvd ripper for mac.Maybe ripper is illegal, but i just get my oringinal files, and i want to do more with it, that's just it!

  • Importing Video into Flash Project ?

    Hi, I want to ask you about how can I import video into my Flash Project and make it possible to view ?
    I tried to choose embed FLV but the sound quality is quite shity and the video quality too. Furthermore, It expands the timeline which is too long because my video is quite long too. It said that it can be at least 16000 Frames to run.
    Now I choose Import -> Import Video -> Load External ..... and then I put it on one scene. The thing is that when I test it, it looks like I have to expands the timeline too so that I can play the videos fully. And It will slow down the computer so much when I want to export. Is there any way I can play the video only by just creating one keyframe ?
    Please help me.

    i choose Load -> External and it gives me some FLVPlayback in the library too ... But how I can make it relate to the previous scene and it can play the whole video and then back to the first scene...
    First scene is where people can choose some option that I made of ...
    A is where I link to the scene 3 of my project
    B comes to Scene 4
    C comes to Scene 5
    What I'm stucking right now is how can I made the C choice for people to choose and they can see the videos. I tried to drag the FLVPlayback to the scene 6 and it shows some result. But I think if I want to watch the whole video I need to expand the timeline as much as possible and I really don't want that. Is there any actionscript code or some tips that I can make it possible? Sorry because I'm a newbie so I don't understand your words. Can you explain it more ?

  • How to import video into adobe muse?

    how to import video into adobe muse?

    If you want to embed videos in your muse site, without using a service like youtube or vimeo, then you will need to manually upload the video files on the server and use them via the video tag available in html5, HTML5 Video
    To insert the video tags in your muse pages, you will need to use the 'Object -> Insert HTML' option.
    Since this option is not available in Muse, out of the box, I will recommend that you post this on our ideas section over here, https://forums.adobe.com/community/muse/ideas, and let our devs team know of this requirement.

  • Importing video into ipad2 iMovie

    How do I import videos into ipad2?

    And yet just another example of how apple-centric limitations frustrate even the simplest functions.  If I can import a video directly into my iPad from my "non-apple" camcorder, and play it... Then I shouldn't have to use iTunes on another computer to not only covert the file, but to import it as well so that iMovie can "see" it!!!
    This even happens when using garage band ON MY IPAD then trying to use the music I created in I Movie ON MY iPAD!!!  You have to save the music to iTunes then connect to a laptop then import the music back to your iPad.
    This is CRAZY!!!!!!!
    Apple... Get your act together and make all this stupid crap stop... PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!! 
    Samsung Galaxy anyone?  While the video editing app isn't as good as iPad yet, the comparability and functionality blows iPad out of the water... You can actually save to folders!  Watch out apple google is hot on your a$$

  • Importing video into After effects, premiere pro and media encoder result in freezing

    I have been trying to import a 17 minute long mp4 video shot with a go-pro into after effects and premiere pro with the result of the program locking up each time. My next thought was try to import it into media encoder and change the file format but it is causing media encoder to lock up as well. Any thoughts would be sincerely appreciated

    Sounds like something might be fishy with the video file.  You might try converting with different software, which can often be more forgiving than Adobe tools.

  • Still Having issues with importing videos into imovie..

    OK, having heard that Apple took care of all the issues in Imove 08, I shelled out the money and I am still having the same **** problems. I now have a canon Vixia avc video camera. If i pull the card out after taking vids, imovie will import them. Now, the problem. For a year, I would just copy the stream folder containing the mts files. Imovie will not import them. I have even tried making the folder structure and then making a .dmg and mounting it. I also tried putting the .mts files onto a card that had the structure. Still no luck. I also used Toast Titanium 10 to convert the files to .movs and .mp4. It still will not import. How in the **** is this software supposed to be this user friendly if you cant even get the videos into it to work on them. hopefully someone has some answers.
    Thanks in advance
    Robert

    I had certain formats not working for me either. I may not be getting the jist of your importing problems but as long as you can get the files onto your computer, I would use the free software "Mpeg Streamclip" to convert everything. Once I used that I had instant success. Also make sure Perian (the free plugin you can get on apple's site) installed.
    Good luck!

  • Can't import videos into iMovie HD

    Hello,
    I am attempting to edit some Halo videos for my friends. I captured the video on my PC and I am using my video iPod as a flash drive to get them onto my MacBook. I have exported the files into .wmv, mpeg-2, mpeg-4, and .avi. Every format except .wmv, when imported, is either a white screen or a black screen through the whole video. I have the flip4mac trial, but do not want to pay $30 just to get rid of a watermark. I don't know if I am doing something wrong, or what I should even do. Also, when I try to play mpeg-2/4, or .avi files off of my desktop it says that Quicktime cannot open the file.
    What file type should I use in iMovie that will work, or what should I do?
    And I am sure I have the latest version of iMovie.
    /Thanks

    iMovie uses QuickTime file formats or DV Stream files directly from a camcorder.
    If your files don't open or play properly in QuickTime Player they will not "import" into iMovie.
    If you're authoring on a PC you must keep this basic fact as part of your your export scheme.
    iPod videos are usually 320X240 and will not look good when scaled up to DV dimensions. Some use 480 width MPEG-4 video codecs that could scale but you may not be happy with the results.
    Most Windows exports use Windows only codecs and this is the reason you're not seeing the video. Try exporting as a DV format (blah.dv) from Movie Maker. It may only appear as an option export to .AVI using those codecs.
