IPhoto slideshow to quicktime and audio tracks fadeout, undesirable.

I made a quicktime movie out of an iPhoto slideshow and the audio tracks fade out. Can this be prevented?

You probably will need a 3rd party application to convert the . mov QT file that iPhoto creates into a format for the iPod. Some are VisualHub, ViddyUp, and iSquint. You can find them at VersionTracker.com.

TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

  • How to export iPhoto slideshow to quicktime and then view on video iPod?

    How do you export a slideshow to a Quicktime movie (from iPhoto) so that the resulting Quicktime movie is then viewable on an iPod?
    I've exported slideshows (with transitions, specified Ken Burns effects, music, etc.) to Quicktime movies to try to view these on my iPod. I don't want to view my photo albums since they don't have of the effects that the slideshow has. There is an option to save the slideshow in a small file size that is presumably viewable on an ipod. About 80% of the time, however, the Quicktime movies are then NOT viewable on my iPod. My iPod just freezes when I try to start the movie.
    Here are the steps I use to export
    1. From iPHoto Select the slideshow / File / Export / select small movie
    2. From iTunes / File / Import / select the Quicktime movie that was created from the slideshow

    I've tried synchronizing my iTunes with the Quicktime movie to a new iPod and that doesn't work either. I've tried many different approaches but none of these ever work. I'd really appreciate any thoughts or ideas you might have. Thank you!

  • Video and audio tracks not synchronized after importing

    When I try to watch a video in quicktime or itunes video and audio tracks not synchronized. If I wach on another player they are synced. Anyone help?

    John:
    Thanks for your reply.  Excuse my referring to you as "Kevin".  I'm new to the Adobe Community.  I have also referenced another article which is seemingly a bit easier to fix for such a non-technical woman like myself.  I'm going to try both solutions.  Whichever works I'll be sure to reply to the thread with my findings.  I found this article which provides the following solution:  http://blog.flickharrison.com/2012/04/problem-solving-in-adobe-premiere-audio-glitches-and -sync/

    Hello All...
    Back after a brief absence, things look a little bit different.
    I'm trying to take a 16 minute mini dv video and compress it for use on the web. I'm interested in any suggestions you may have on settings for the video and audio tracks. I've tried using Sorenson 3 (15 frames, key frames set to automatic, 320 x 240) for video and IMA 4:1 (mono) for audio. The resulting video looked great but the file size came in at about 255 Mb.
    Thanks!

    Thank you for the replies.  Everyone was correct about the jack, interface, and phasing problems.  I have been unplugging my motu audio interface and then using headphones at work.  I have not changed any detailed audio output settings in logic.  When I read that the jack might be a problem I tried switching headphones.  This actually helped.  I am using dre-beats headphones and they seem to be having issues with the mac/jack-(the phasing/panning problems.  I can use these headphones with other devices but not the mac.  I have to use ipod ear buds and the phasing seems fixed.  Hopefully this information is helpful to someone else. 
    If anyone knows how to correct this issue please let me know its difficult to know what my final mixes are going to sound like and I have had to keep bouncing everything into i-tunes- sync to ipod and then listen in my car radio.

  • Video and Audio Track Destination in FC Pro

    Sometimes my Source Bar (In the Timeline) doesn't allow me to execute it. That is in the video and audio tracks.
    g-5   Mac OS X (10.4.6)  

    Hi there,
    I just came across this problem. I had a clip in the viewer with video and audio and a sequence in the timeline. But somehow FCP wouldn't let me edit the video into the timeline, I couldn't patch the video.
    So I opened up another sequence. Same thing.
    Third sequence, and the video track selector miraculously appears.
    Any ideas? After I quit and restarted FCP, it all worked normally.
    Tales from the not-so-far-side, I guess.....

  • Can I link and lock video and audio tracks - layers - as in Photoshop?

    I'd like to link and lock entire clips of video and audio tracks, as I might in Photoshop, so that I can insert some material ahead of this group without having to move each separate tack in my timeline. I have a group of clips which works well together now, and it would be so nice to be able to link them, lock them together as on unit, and just insert the new material into the timeline ahead of this piece. Any ideas?

    alann
    What version of Premiere Elements and on what computer operating system?
    For now, a generalized Premiere Elements Windows answer.....
    You would select all the clips (all at one time) that you want to move together, then Clip Menu/Group.
    Or right click anywhere in the selection to bring up the pop up menu including the Group option.
    Have you been there and done that yet?
    Please supply more information so that we can fine tune the information that you seek.
    Thank you.

  • Can't play Video and audio tracks.

    Most of the iDevelop 2001 videos and audios require a Real

  • How many video and audio tracks now?

    If there is one single bad thing in iMovie is the lack of tracks. Most "consumer editors" would like at least 3 sets of stereo audio tracks and the titles would be nicer on a separate track. But in the iMovie site there is no mention to those things. Strange, every video app site has some specs about video and audio tracks, even the free ones.

    Hi John,
    Unfortunately the iMovie '06 has the exact same arrangement as '05: One video track and two audio tracks. I was so badly hoping for at least a second video track in the new version because that makes things so much better, but for some reason they didn't add one. They probably know that less people would shell out $300 for Final Cut Express if they added a second video track to iMovie. sigh
    A big disappointment.

  • Combining Separate Video and Audio tracks

    Hi, what's the best way to combine a video and audio tracks into a single file? We will be given the video and audio from 13 volleyball games, and each game will be coming as a file.mpg (mpeg2) video and an mp3 file.
    We're looking for a way to either manually bring it in, or bulk automate a way of combining the two tracks for each game to have one file that is in a format that doesn't need to be rendered in FCP.
    Thanks!

    Seems like there should be some way to combine clips somewhere though? < </div>
    Not if they're form separate devices or in different codecs. the MPEG2 files are the big problem, next time, have your people shoot conventional DV and use the audio interface to bring in a feed from your announce booth or radio station or whatever so it's in sync.

  • Independant video and audio tracks separate

    I am using Premiere Elements 12 on a PC. I am working on a multimedia project combining video, stills and audio. Independant video and audio tracks separate when I insert a still image on another track. The tracks are not grouped or linked together. I do not know how to prevent this happening. The manual suggests pressing the Alt button when inserting but this does not work.

    Holding down the Alt key of the computer main keyboard does work and works well under most ordinary conditions. Please practice and refine your Alt technique with care patience. But....

  • The deal with the new subtitles and audio track feature...

    During the keynote, Jobs claimed that chapter selection, subtitles and alternate audio tracks for movies were a new feature on the iPhone. Why that feature would only be available on the iPhone is beyond me -- I assume that the feature is actually available on the iPods, or at the very least on the computer. Indeed in the new iTunes 7.6 the option shows up in the menu. But it's greyed out! What's up with that? And I just purchased several new movies since the upgrade, including Bridge to Terabithia and the Prestige. But when playing either one of those films, the Controls -> Audio & Subtitles option is greyed out (though the chapter selection works). The option is greyed out for my rentals (Superbad and Underdog) too. My wife is not a native speaker and it helps her a lot to have the subtitles. What am I not understanding here? Are only some movies going to have subtitles and audio tracks? Is this a big downside to buying/renting on iTunes instead of just going and buying or renting a DVD?

    That would stink if the subtitle/CC option were only available for the iphone. It is more likely though that the movies you tried simply do not have any other language track or subtitles: thus you see them greyed out.
    I don't know of any movie that has another language track for sure - though in the Keynote Steve's version of Ratatouille has a French track...

  • Video and Audio Track Selection

    Is there any quick way to do this? Nothing in the keyboard shortcuts menu that seems close to "Sleect Video Track 1", "Select Audio Track 1", etc. Is it only achieveable with a mouse? Thanks all.

    I have made custom keyboard shortcuts for video and audio tracks using Toggle Track.
    I use numbers 1 to 7 for Video and Shift 1-7 for Audio.
    In conjunction with Mouse clicking and shift mouse clicking on tracks..does all that I need.

  • Can't play music in iPhoto slideshow in Quicktime

         Hi,
    I created a slideshow in iPhoto and added a song as a sound track.  I exported it according to the instructions in the Help, but when I play it in QuickTime, there is no music.  What am I doing wrong?  The Quicktime Help says I should be able to choose whether or not to include the background music, but I'm not seeing that option anywhere.
    Thanks for any help!

    Is the audio track one you purchased from iTunes and is DRM protected? If so then the protection prevents the audio from getting included in the QT movie file.
    If you have Quicktime Pro 7 and Quicktime Player 7 you can add the movie to the audio track to get what you want.

  • Web Quicktime playing audio track only

    When I access websites that provide streaming MPGQuicktime movies, only the audio track will play. I can't see any pictures.
    This has only recently happened. If the site is providing WMV videos they play OK no problem.
    I am using 10.3.9 and have installed the latest version of Quicktime but still no luck
    thanks

    Ok. This works. Sadly, I did not try the solutions one step at a time (remember the scientific method?) so I'm not sure which one was the fix. However, the Quicktime files now do play on apple.com/trailers or any other site with QT videos.
    STEP 1: I did this one first and it is taken from another thread an posted by Baby Boomer:
    Save and/or quit your applications & doucuments
    Go to Applications>Utilities Folder
    Click Disk Utility
    Click the Volumn (HD) that you want to check.
    Click the Repair Disk Permissions button. (Don't worry about verifying)
    At the bottom of window when the repairs have finished, you will see the “most important thing”:
    Permission Repairs Complete
    The previliges have been repaired or completed on the selected volumn.
    Restart your computer.
    STEP 2: This one I did next and it was posted on anther thread by Borntostrum:
    Go to HD> Library> Internet Plugins> Delete Quicktime Plugin.webplugin and restart your browser.
    Hope that Helps!!
    Well, it did help. Thanks to both Borntostrum and to Baby Boomer!
