Importing web videos via HTML

Would someone PLEASE help me!!!!
I can't seem to properly import my web videos to the right size inside iweb.
I copy the code for the player which size is 960x540, however it seems that iweb doesn't allow a video player that big.
after i publish the page, only part of the player is visible.
what could be causing this?
i tried to resize the player from within iweb but it wouldn't let me.
please advise....

I'm importing the code from EzS3 for my video player.
you can see it at: http://web.me.com/wkinzel/tester/Blank.html
notice that the second right end of the player is cut off. you can't see the maximize screen button.
i've tried this with multiple player codes, but the iweb HTML Snippet seems to not like the big player size. the smaller i can get 640x480 to work, but not 960x540.

Simultaneous import of video via firewire and audio via in-line audio port

I have a converter that takes the S-video and audio input from my DVR then converts both to DV format, and then outputs via firewire. I hook the firewire up to my G5, open iMovieHD, and the application recognizes that as a camera and imports wonderfully.
Well, the audio comes through with a MAJOR buzz or hum. It's probably the converter, but the buzz/hum is not enjoyable.
So, I removed the audio from the converter, and the video converts wonderfully in iMovie without the audio. I have the audio coming in through my audio line-in.
I start to import my video, and iMovie starts recording the video. But I want to record the line-in audio at the same time. But when I switch to audio to turn on the input from the line-in, the video stops capturing.
When I start to capture audio first, then switch to capture video, then the audio stops capturing.
Is there any way that I can capture the video via firewire for one "track", and my line-in audio for the other "track", and have them play simultaneously in iMovie during capture??
Any help would be appreciated. thanks Adam

hey there badkitty 42,
i don't think you can do that. it sounds like your issue is electrical. try turning the plug around on each piece of gear in the chain & listen for the buzz. if it's not heard you've found the cause of your ground loop. you can also pick up some of the 3-prong orange or grey electrical adapters from Lowe's or Home Depot to see if you can "lift the ground" to get rid of the buzz. i'd try one on the convertor 1st. one last thing, do you have any flourescent lights in use on the same circuit or in proximity to where you're doing your transcoding? these are notorious for inducing 60Hz hum in audio & video gear.
good luck.

Importing Phots & Videos via PhotoStream & USB (Problem)

I have activated Photostream on my iPhone. As a matter of fact, videos do not get imported through Photostream. So I have to import them by USB. So all Photos are already stream to my MacBook and I just want to import my videos.
The problem: When I plug in my iPhone to iPhoto, it is showing my videos (which is logical because I haven´t imported them yet) and some (interestingly only some) photos, which are already in my library.
Why does this happen?
Thanks a lot and forgive me for my bad english.
Greeting

Did you try importing after seeing that? iPhoto will detect duplicates and give you the opportunity to NOT import them.

Problems importing VHS video via Canopus ADVC110

OK, I can't figure out how best to do this. I picked up a Canopus ADVC110 converter box to aid in digitizing a stack of VHS tapes. Yesterday I performed a short (1 minute) trial run and was unsatisfied with the results.
I imported the footage into iMovie '08, then tried burning a DVD of the clip iDVD. The result looked noticeably worse than the original tape. I'd settle for near quality, but this showed heavy compression, darker and grainier image, etc. I tried burning both "medium" and "large" versions that were sent to the Media Browser. Same result. I even tried exporting the project as a Quicktime DV stream and burning a DVD using Toast Titanium 9. No difference.
Now, the video preview inside iMovie seems to look OK, but then again it's hard to compare what I'm seeing there with the finished DVD video that I watch on my 13" television. I'm thinking that something is going haywire in the export and DVD-burning phase, though I may be way off on that one.
In any case, I'd love to hear from anyone who is attempting to do similar transfers and how they achieved the best-looking results. I'm merely trying to whittle down my collection of VHS tapes, but if the transfer quality can't be improved I'm kind of stuck...
Oh, I also own FCP Express 4, and am wondering if that might produce a better import? I have no idea.
Any advice or comments from past experience would be much appreciated.
Thank you,
David

I imported the footage into iMovie '08, then tried burning a DVD
Use iMovie 06 not iMovie 08.
For interlaced video such as DV and 1080i HDV, iMovie 08 now uses single-field processing. This means every other horizontal line of the video is thrown out, which reduces the sharpness of the footage.
If your primary workflow is editing DV clips and making DVDs, iMovie '06 is better suited. Your movie will arrive at iDVD in DV format, which is an ideal match for making a DVD: same resolution, same pixels aspect ratio, and original quality. If you share your movie from iMovie '08, it gets re-rendered at 640x480 or less, and then iDVD upscales it back to 720x480. The end result is obviously not as good.
iMovie 06 and iDVD 08 is the best combination. Use Professional Quality in iDVD 08.
When I use iMovie 06 and iDVD 08 I get excellent results.
I use the Canopus ADVC300 because it comes with a nice Macintosh application that works flawlessly with iMovie 06. The program that comes with the ADVC300 has some nice filters that can improve video and audio of the source material.
The Web site below has a good comparison of Apple video products.

iMovie 06 is a free download to iLife 08 owners. (THEY WANT YOU TO HAVE IT!)

Can't import pic/video via Adobe Bridge anymore

I just installed ios 7 on the iphone 5.
I tried to import my pic/videos to my mac book pro via Adobe Bridge like I always do,
but Adobe Bridge(or iPhotos) doesn't recognize any files on the iphone.
I never had this issue before.
How can I make Bridge recognize the files for me to import the files to the computer?
If someone had the same problem and solved it please let me know.
thanks.

Hey Sue,
Thanks for the reply. The external drive is formatted MS-DOS File System (FAT32). I had to do this because I had problems with it at first when I was using it interchangeably with a Mac and a PC. When it was Mac formatted it wouldn't be compatible with my PC for some reason (or I could read files, but couldn't write - something like that). Any suggestions?
Thanks again,
Dylan

How do I import/convert video via flashdrive to iMovie on my iMac?

I want to learn to edit the digital video files of some classes I am teaching. I assume that iMovie is the place to do that, but I can't seem to get the material onto it. After the editing, I'd like to be able to post portions of it online via YouTube or some such site. I have an iMac version 10.6.8, Snow Leopard
So far I have not been able to even see the files. When I inserted the flashdrive containing the digital video files into my iMac, it said there was no app for opening them. I searched the apps, and thought about trying the app "iVI", but didn't want to spend the $9.99 if I didn't need to. Today I downloaded the free app, "Any Video Converter". It converted a portion of the material, saying something about it not being able to "parse" portions of it (whatever that means). When I looked at the little bit that was converted, the visuals were jerky. Perhaps it was becuase I didn't know which "profile" format to choose, and they didn't offer iMovie on an iMac; the offers were for portable devices. Do I need to download another app, and if so, which of the many would be good for my purposes?
The other question I have is how to get the same information onto my MacBook, which is version 10.5.1 of Mac OSX, Leopard.
I'm so frustrated! I'm a beginner at this, and it just hasn't been the easy drag and drop I thought it would be!

Thanks for getting back with me so promptly. It has taken me this time to connect with the proper people to find out the information you requested.
The camera used to film the class was a Panasonic AG-HMC40P, owned by a local cable TV station; they use Kodak video encoding software, and a SD card was used to store the video. The file extension is .mts, and the mime file is MPEG 2 transport. He said I probably need an AVCHD converter, and the Mac app store lists 8 of those options, 4 free and 4 for up to $9.99. He said I'll also need a converter for later plans of posting on YouTube or on the website, and while some of those in the app store might work for the later needs, he knows one app called "Compressor" that would work for the uploading later. He also suggested I could try renaming the .mts file to .MP2T, but he wasn't sure that would work.
They don't work with Macs at the studio, but I had thought I could have some lessons there in editing, and apply what I learned to my iMac and iMovie.
First, though, I have to be able to see it and review it!
Thanks again!

Importing Analog Video via Canopus ADVC300

When you Import video if there is a glitch in the video tape playback the imovie import stops. So if you have a an older video tape and it drops out the import stops. Is there anyway to for the import to stay running without the input affecting it?
The Canopus 300 is a analog video to firewire converter. It does a great job otherwise.
Thanks,
Andrew

Hi
in iMovie HD 6 - I set it to not import as individual clips.
• there are non in analog import
• turning it off makes iMovie less sencitive to drop outs
Cheque Your Canopus ADVC-300 manual. Think I set it so that it's not so
sencitive to drop-outs. But may be I'm wrong in this.
Yours Bengt W

SSL and Quicktime Player: QT crashes if it opens a web video via https

Hello,
it was running some test-videos, I think, some weeks ago very well - as I can remember. After some days quicktime client starts crashing when it opens a .mp4 file from a https: connection. Thers a message concerning the certificate from quicktime then it crashes.
It crashes also on another computer. Quicktime plays the same file via a http connection (that is not secured via ssl) very well.
Safari is playing the https(ssl)-file with quicktime very well.
If Safari runs the ssl video and finally completed do load the full video I can copy the https:-URL to Quicktime player - and it plays the video very well.
Via quicktime streaming server the .mp4 runs too - but its not secured - I think
What can I do? Thank you for any suggestion.
Best regards.

Dear Paul,
thank you for your concerns - but I don´t want to give the address to the public.
I hope for your understanding.
Best regards

Can FCP X import analog video via a FW bridge?

I've regularly done this in 7 but have seen conflicting reports as to whether this works in FCP X or not.
Standard setup - SVHS -> Sony DSR-20 -> Firewire -> Mac.
In FCP 7 I use "Capture Now" to capture the resulting video.
Sorry if the answer is obvious.

What results are you getting?
If your deck can set time code to free run, do so.

Importing Digital Video into FCF6 via ADVC-110

I have FC Studio 6 and am trying to import digital video via Firewire using a ADVC110 purchased at the Apple store. FCP does not recognize the camcorder-ADVC on capture, import, etc. Apparently others on the Web are having similar problems. Does anyone know the setup parameters for FCP and switch selections for the ADVC to make this workflow actually work?
Thanks,
DickWalt

If the camera has a firewire port, you should do this (forget the canopus)
Close FCP, turn off the mac and the camera.
Plug the firewire cable in the mac and the camera...make sure the camera is set for playback and not record.
Turn on the camera, then the mac.
Open System Profiler (click on blue apple icon top left, choose About this Mac and select More Info) Click on Firewire in the left pane of the Profiler interface and make sure your camera is recognized. If it's not, your camera is not set for playback or you have a bad FW cable or FW port on the camera or mac.
If it is recognized, open FCP, check your Easy Setup for DV-NTSC, then go to File/Log and Capture and see if you can capture...you should see the image from tape in the capture interface. If so,
Type in a name for the REEL (critical for FCP to recognize the timecode of that particular tape) and then type in a name for the clip(s) in the Description line.
Beyond that there are various methods of capturing, but best is to log each clip, with specific names, then highlight them all and do a Batch Capture. Check the manual for procedure.

Importing Video via AEBS

Three basic question:
1. Is it possible to import video from a camcorder into iMovie via AEBS simply (similar to connecting via USB)?
2. Can the hard drive in my camcorder (MS-DOS fat32) be reformated without screwing up the the way the camcorder works?
2. Why does the camcorder's hard drive act differently when connected via AEBS?
Details:
I have a sony handycam sr42. Importing the video via the USB is simple. When I connect the camera it mounts automatically and shows an icon on the Desktop. When iMovie is turned on it automatically prompts importing and gives a new window with options for the import.
However, I tried connecting the camera via USB to a powered USB hub to AEBS. After mounting the camera's drive in FINDER it showed up with a green icon w/timemachine logo. Importing the video was a bit more complex. The video didn't show up for import when iMovie was turned on.
Also, I'm curious about how the drive on the Camcorder is formatted (MS-DOS fat32). Should it be reformatted?

One more thing, I would recommend importing your video to either your internal hard drive, or a firewire attached external drive formatted HFS+ journalled. A USB drive formatted HFS+ journalled and locally attached to your Mac via a USB port or a powered USB hub should work, too. But it will not perform as well as firewire.
The AEBS is OK for backup, but I don't think that iMovie will recognize it as a valid drive for video editing. And even if it did, the performance would likely not be good enough. The speeds of the wireless connection are not sufficient.

Flvplayback issue imported with Video Import Wizard

Hi guys,
I imported multiple flvplayback videos on my file via the Video Wizard Import. After that I removed all videos except one. But it's still trying to load those old video and the skin of their player when I preload the file. I am sure there's no player on the stage except the one I need. And when I need to play the file, it's working well, the only problem is the extra loading for 6 skins that I don't use anymore and the time to look for 6 videos that are not there. So here're my questions;
1-When you import a video via Wizard, it there a script hidden somewhere that can be found?
2-When you import a flv to the stage, there's a loading bar saying getting metadata. Is there a place to edit or erase this metadata ?
3-Any other ideas of where I could look to find this hidden data or trace or ghost that needs to be remove from the file ?
I really need help for that, any clue or ideas are welcome...
Thanks

Are these video files still in your Library?

I have a Sony HDR-PJ260V camcorder and I use iMovie, is there a way to import my videos in 1080?

Okay, so I'm pretty new to this, and today when I tried to import my videos via iPhoto they got all grainy and stuff.
What should I do to import them on their normal quality?
Thanks

I have been trying to import VHS video into iMovie via a Hollywood Dazzle bridge. Did not have trouble until I upgraded to mavericks. I have a mac book pro, 10.9.1, iMovie 10.0.2. Says it is recording, but when I go to check, it says the file is empty.

I have been trying import VHS video into iMovie via a Hollywood Dazzle bridge. I have been successful doing this in the past, but now it is not working. I have a mac book pro, 10.9.1, (mavericks), iMovie 10.0.2. Everything in iMovie looks like it is working. It reads "recording" in the upper left hand corner of the pane while the video is playing. When I stop the process to check on my clip it says that the file is empty. The only thing that has changed since I did it successfully is that I upgraded to mavericks from whatever I had previously. My system is about one year old. Any suggestions?

Hey, Clinton,
     Thanks for your help! I was able to go to iMovie 9.0.9 and import video. I was still curious as to why it didn't work in version 10.0.2, so I contacted Apple tech support. They were't sure at first as to why it wouldn't work, so they had me delete iMovie 10.0.2 and then re-install it just to see if something had gone wrong when it upgraded. That didn't change anything. In the end, they determined that 10.0.2 doesn't support the Hollywood Dazzle DV bridge. But I have a workaround path from them that I will share so that it's possible to import to 9.0.9, then move it to 10.0.2.
     1. Open iMovie 9 (finder/applications/iMovie 9.0.9
     2. Import from Dazzle Bridge to iMovie 9, note which event you are importing the clips into
     3. Close iMovie 9
     4. Open iMovie 10 (probably in the dock)
     5. File/Import Media...navigate to home(this was my name, on the left side of iMovie, under Favorites)/Movies/iMovie events. Find the event folder that contains your Dazzle clips (tip-try sorting by date modified to look at recent events.)
     6. Select the clips and import. Click the blue "Import Selected" button on the bottom right.
You may get a message that some files cannot be imported. Click continue import. It's a little glitchy. It imports your clip, and also makes a copy of it, too. On the copy, the audio is normal, but the video is choppy. In any case, you would delete the copy, anyway.
Hope this additional information helps somebody else. Thanks again, Clinton for helping me!

Importing VHS video into FCE4 via a camcorder

Hello,
I’m trying to import some old family videos that were recorded on an old VHS camera (now long departed) into Final Cut Express 4 using a Sony DCR-TR330 camcorder & a VHS player.
The camcorder is connected to my iMac via the firewire interface, the VHS player is connected to the “audio/video” input on my camcorder
When I press play on the VHS player the video appears in the Final Cut Express 4 capture window (the audio also plays) When I click “Capture Now” on the capture window I get the message:
“Waiting for Timecode
Device must be in VTR mode when Device Control is enabled”
If I first record the VHS video onto a Hi8 tape in the camcorder, I can then import the video (& audio) into FCE4 using the “Capture Now” button.
Is there any way to import the video straight into FCE8 instead of first having to transfer it to the Hi8 format.
Thanks for any help.
John Hutchinson

Many thanks for your prompt reply,
I am now able to capture straight from VHS to FCE4
Kind Regards
John Hutchinson
