JPEG export of QuickTime frame (with Location info)

Shoot QuickTime with iPhone 4S camera app.   Import into iPhoto and see that location data is recorded in file by nature of the fact that iPhoto shows a map pin of the location it was shot.   Park QuickTime on a frame in iPhoto.  Select File Export, Kind: JPEG, with Location information ticked (which when I hover over this option says "Include GPS data in exported photos" -- see attached photo).   Click the Export button.   Choose a folder and save.   Resulting file is not a jpeg but is a 31 KB reference QuickTime of the original 1080p quicktime. 
Why isn't this working?
iPhoto ’11 (ver 9.3 650.39)

Prior to version 9.1.5, iPhoto would export the currently parked frame of a QuickTime file.  (See:
http://macmost.com/export-video-still-frame-as-image-with-iphoto.html)   This prior state of functionality, along with the fact that the current version's export menus do not dim or grey out during export from QT media, leads one to believe that frame export is a legitimate feature (or facility as you put it) of iPhoto that has somehow become broken, at least on my Mac.  Maybe it works on other Macs.
Also, what is so wrong with the expectation that a still exported from video (which, by definition, is a series of stills presented at 30 frames per second, giving the illusion of movement) can inherit geolocation data from the originating video?   What makes this such a radical notion?   It is inheriting the width, the height, the saturation, the luminance -- why not throw in the location, which is a tiny morsel of geodata just asking to be plucked?   Those piddly bits would grant the exported still a greater context; they would, indeed, place it on a map.
And what could be a finer honour for a piece of media, be it a photo, be it a QuickTime, be it a still exported from a QuickTime, than to be given its place on the iPhoto map.  Such a proud distinction that says "Yes, I am an image (or a moving image, or a still taken from a moving image) and I was taken here."   Do not deny the honour of placement to these media.  All are worthy of placement on the map, because all are historical artifacts that beg for geo-context.   And without geo-context, they become lost.
Goodnight.
(P.S. I plan to export lots of stills from lots of QuickTimes and do not want to do manual geotagging.  No thanks.)

  • Keynote export to Quicktime fails with any animation

    I'm making recordings of Keynote slideshows, and I keep running into the same problem: any time I include an animation, of any sort, the export to Quicktime fails. Any advice?
    Specifically, regardless of the format (whether it's an animated GIF, a Quicktime movie, or ???), I have the animation set to begin immediately, on transition. I can see it animating while I'm talking. When I export it to Quicktime, my voice continues, but Keynote remains stuck on the first frame. Sometimes it does animate a little bit, toward the end of the time that I'm on the slide, but regardless, voice and video sync are way, way off for the rest of the movie.
    Has anyone else encountered this and fixed it? I've seen one person be advised to export using fixed timing, but that's not an option for me: the amount of time I spend on the different slides varies quite a bit.

    Yeah, it's pretty simple- with your keynote slideshow open, just open quicktime player, go to "file" then "new screen recording". A little box will open with a record button. Press record, and then play your slideshow in keynote from the beginning. You will have to wait and let it record in real time. After it is done, it will prompt you to save it as a quicktime movie. Then you just have to open iMovie, click "import" and then select the quicktime movie you just made. Then click the musical note button on the lower right, select the mp3 of the VO track or music that you want to use, and drag that onto the timeline. You should right-click and select "detach audio" so you can move it around and get the timing you need. Then just "finalize project" and you're done! Easy-peezie.
    And I have no idea about future keynote updates...overall it's a nice program but the exporting problems definitely need to be addressed.

  • Export to Quicktime bug with embedded movies

    Hi
    I'm having an annoying problem when having Quicktime movies inserted in slides, then recording a slideshow and exporting it to Quicktime. I do the following:
    1) Create a new slideshow
    1) Insert movie into first slide
    2) Create another slide
    3) Insert copy and paste movie into this slide as well and add some animated object (i.e. a shape with a motion path)
    4) Record slideshow so that the animated object appears while the movie still plays
    5) Export recorded slideshow to Quicktime
    *What happens when viewing the recorded slideshow:* Start of the presentation. The movie on the first slide starts playing immediately without clicking. *1st CLICK*. Second slide shows up. The movie on the second slide starts playing without clicking as well. *2nd CLICK.* The animated object is triggered, the movie and the animation play simultaneously.
    *What happens when viewing the exported movie:* The exported movie seems to ignore some of the recorded settings. Slideshow starts, the movie doesn't play. *1st CLICK.* The movie starts playing (when actually it was supposed to advance from slide 1 to slide 2). *2nd CLICK.* The presentation advanced from slide 1 to slide 2.
    It seems as if the export does not interpret all the settings the same way the direct presentation does, which is quite annoying as you don't get the same result in the exported movie you see on the screen.
    Workaround: Go to the "QuickTime inspector" button in the inspector window, select the movie, check the option "Start movie on click". Then, go to the "Build inspector", hit the "More Options" button. The movie object now appears in the list. Select it and select "Automatically after transition" in the lower "Start build" part of the inspector. This way, the movie will start playing also in the exported movie.
    Still there is another problem now.
    *What happens now when viewing the exported movie with workaround:* Slideshow starts, the plays. *1st CLICK.* The presentation advanced from slide 1 to slide 2. The movie on the second slide starts playing without clicking as well! YAY! *2nd CLICK.* The animated object is triggered, the animation plays but the movie stops as soon as the animation is triggered.
    So, instead of playing animation and movie simultaneously as in the normal recorded slideshow on screen, in the exported movie, the movie stops the moment the animation is triggered.
    It seems as if the "Play Slideshow" and "Export to Quicktime" have different timelines, or different parameters the two modes evaluate.
    This happened in iWork '08 and also happens in iWork '09. It's quite annoying. For me it's clearly a bug that should be fixed and is worth fixing. Please Apple, fix this bug.
    I also noticed a tremendous amount of crashes while using the export to Quicktime function. While I was trying Keynote in iWork '09 I exported several times to Quicktime and had several crashes just by using this function.

    Hi all.
    I do exactly have the same problem since Keynote 4.0 and was hoping that it's solved in Keynote 5.0.
    As soon as I try to export a previously recorded slideshow, (that has a quicktime-movie embeded on one slide) and one or two little textanimations on it. The embeded movie stops playing when the first animation starts in the exported quicktimemovie. When I view my recorded presentation, everything looks fine.
    I do also believe, that the Quicktime-Export-Function does not work correctly because of timeline differences or so.
    I would really appreciate a fix, specially becaused I upgraded in the hope that this should have been solved since around 10 months now....
    Too bad.
    P.S. As a workaround I am currently using also screenflow to record a recorded keynotepresentation to finally receive a movie. But that is kind of awkward too....

  • Export as Quicktime Video - with alpha

    I'm having trouble figuring out how to export an animation
    I've created in Flash as a Quicktime Video with transparent (alpha
    channel) background. My client wants to import it into Final Cut
    and have it play over a video track.
    I've used the "export movie" feature in flash with the
    following settings. (I have Quicktime Pro installed.)
    Format: 32 bit color (alpha channel)
    Compressor: Animation
    Quality Default setting
    Sound 44Hz
    Maybe there's nothing wrong with my export settings... maybe
    I need to specify a layer in my flash movie as the alpha channel? I
    can't find any documentation to help!
    Anyone have a clue?
    See an example-->
    http://www.element-group.net/brini/trans_vertical.html
    The white background will need to me transparent to reveal
    the video track.
    Thanks,

    I forgot to say that making the Flash track transparent is an
    intermediate step.
    After that, import the .mov to Final Cut.
    QuickTIme can only support Flash content of Flash 5 and
    under.
    Do you realize that QuickTime 7.1.3 has "Enable Flash" off by
    default. To see Flash tracks in QT player or browser plug-in, you
    now have to open the QT Preferences or settings, click Advanced Tab
    and check "Enable Flash".
    However, if you just want to get Flash content as an
    animation in Final Cut, here is a good article that helped me do
    it.

  • Can't export to Quicktime: problem with file or disk full

    Keynote 2.02 won't export files to quicktime. I've tried every format and even custom ones. I've tried changing destination disks and I've exported to PDF, JPEG, PowerPoint. Only Quicktime (7.02) is having this problem. I've even exported a movie in quicktime to verify that's working. Keynote goes through the motions of compressing the file and then fails at the very end.
    PLEASE HELP! I NEED THIS TO WORK AGAIN!

    Have you tried the remedy posted here?

  • Cannot export to QuickTime file with PE8

    Hello,
    I have an issue when I want to export my video choosing My Computer, QuickTime. The e^port cannot start, APE8 stop immediatly after launching export (message : unxpected errors; PE8 must closed).
    I already uninstall and reinstall Quicktime (last version), same pb. I also uninstall and reinstall PE8, with the update, same issue.
    I do not know what to do.
    I cannot have files MOV to export to Youtube (also the direct export to Youtube from PE8 is still not working, I have a serveur error, already dscribed by other members, but means to have no solution)
    Eric

    I'm sorry, Eric. I have no solution for you. If your computer is crashing whenever you select Share/Computer/Quicktime and your unable to install a program update, there may be a problem at the operating system level.
    How fast is your processor, how much RAM do you have and how much free, clean, defragmented space is onyour C drive?
    The best solution, assuming your computer is well tuned, would be to upgrade to version 11 of the program. Version 8 was notoriously buggy and does not work at all well with AVCHD video.
    Video 11 edits AVCHD natively and has been optimized for this format. You may be able to find a good deal on the software on Amazon. It would certainly save you a lot of aggravation if you spent the few dollars on it.

  • Export in QuickTime - bug with QuickTime Windows but not with Mac!

    Hello everyone and thanks for reading and answering...
    Something super weird is happening to me...
    I'm exporting a keynote file to Quicktime. The presentation contains movies saved in quicktime format (.mov)
    When I play the exported quicktime file on my Mac, everything runs smoothly.
    However, when I play the same file on my Windows computer, Quicktime freezes as soon as the presentation comes to the video (it freezes when it's time to play it). WHY?
    I was wondering if the problem was coming from the fact that on my Mac i have Quicktime Pro, but on my Windows CPU I just have the regular version. I was thinking that it may be a codec thing.
    Does anyone know? (I don't wanna buy QT Pro only to realize that it wasn't the problem, especially that I seldom use my windows computer (it's a laptop, so I only use it when I have a presentation)
    Thanks a LOT for your inputs and have a good time...

    OK, I may have found the source of the problem: when i tried to play the movie file that I had inserted in Keynote on my PC, Quicktime asked for a codec. In Movie Inspector, I saw that the video was encoded in FLV1...
    Any idea where I can get this codec for QT WIndows (I'm searching for it and haven't found it yet)

  • Problem with .mov files exported from Quicktime working with iMovie

    Since iMovie won't input .mpg files, it has been my practice to use Quicktime Pro to convert the .mpg to a .mov file and then import the .mov file into iMovie. With Quicktime 10 (no longer a Pro version), when I follow this procedure I get a .mov file that iMovie refuses to import. Why is this?

    I am having the same issue. Just purchased QT7 Pro. Converted .3GP format to .mov and cannot open in iMovie. Have you found an answer?

  • Export to Quicktime Movie Results in Aspect Ratio Distortion

    All of my original footage was shot in miniDV. I have created a sequence with the following settings:
    Frame size: 720 x 480
    Compressor: DV/DVCPRO - NTSC
    Pixel Aspect: NTSC - CCIR 601
    Vid rate: 29.97 fps
    Ultimately the sequence needs to go to DVD with a standard 4:3 aspect ratio. To export, I am using:
    File > Export > QuickTime Movie...
    I have tried using several different settings including:
    Apple Pro Res 422 NTSC 48 kHz
    Apple Pro Res 422 NTSC (HQ) 48 kHz
    Apple Pro Res 960x720 30p 48 kHz
    DV NTSC 48 kHz
    etc...
    All settings yield the same result: a slightly squeezed aspect ratio. At first, I thought that this might simply be the fact that I was playing back files in QuickTime which uses square pixels I believe. But in both DVD Studio Pro and iDVD, the simulation shows the same effect. (By the way, Finder's "Get Info" reads the resulting Final Cut Pro Movie File dimensions 720x486.)
    I'm fairly new to FCP so I'm hoping there is something obvious that I have missed. Can anyone explain what I need to do to get the video to DVD without a distorted aspect ratio?
    (Incidentally, I have managed to export using quicktime conversion with no problem. But I need the export to be a Final Cut Pro Movie File so as to maintain chapter markers, etc.)
    Advice welcome!!!

    Hi David, I know this was discussed in you posting already but I just wanted to make sure I had it clear. I have a 4:3 film and I've exported as a quicktime movie with current settings, which should be 4:3 and found that the image when played back in quicktime, looks horizontally stretched. Almost as if quicktime is trying to play it back as a 16:9 image. I think this is the same issue the other fellow was having but I just wanted to be clear. You're saying that the 4:3 image distortion is perfectly normal when played back in quicktime on a computer screen and that the export will look fine when put to DVD or sent to a monitor? I just wanted to make sure because this problem is freaking me out and I don't want to deliver a distorted image to my client. Could you also explain briefly why this happens with quicktime export and not quicktime conversion and what causes quicktime to distort the 4:3 image? Any advice or help would be greatly appreciated.
    Cheers,
    james.

  • Difference between Export as Quicktime and Export as Quicktime Conversion

    If the desired end result is a Quicktime file, compressed with the default h.264 "for broadband" preset, should there be any difference between:
    1) exporting a sequence with "Export as Quicktime", then opening up that file in Quicktime Pro and compressing it with the preset.
    or
    2) exporting the sequence with "Export as Quicktime conversion" with the preset.
    I had expected these to be equivalent, but I've found that method #2 gives me dramatically sharper text in titles. Can anyone explain why? I'm using FCE 4.

    Well I reckon it's because you are crunching numbers twice, in #2 it's once.
    Despite digital transfers being said to Lossless, I call it Lessloss.

  • Export using QuickTime Conversion + SMB automount problems

    I have noticed an interesting (read bad) behavior in FCP (5.0.4) - If I try to do an export using quicktime conversion with the destination being an automounted (via netinfo) smb share as opposed to a apple-k mounted share in m4v, 3g, mp4, image sequence, still image or quicktime movie - I get a File Error: Unknown Folder. However if I do the same export but in avi, wmv, dv stream, or flc formats, it works fine.
    Trying to do the same export operation in quicktime pro produces an error -120, which is equivalent to directory not found.
    Seems like a quicktime problem dealing with the automounted shares, anyone else run into this issue? Have a fix?
    Thanks!
    C M I

    I know I can save locally + that it is tied to the quicktime components - I'm looking for fix/workaround that addresses the issue and streamlines my workflow, thats the reason I set up the automounter in the first place.
    So it's clear though, quicktime has no problem with smb in a general sense, it only has problems w/ the automounted smb shares - manual or command+k mounting of smb shares offer no problems.
    I use the automounting for two reasons: first is to emulate unc paths for rush render queue and second is to have consistent working paths to static content on a file server so final cut docs can be passed from editor to editor and link consistently.

  • Trouble Exporting to 16:9 with Quicktime Movie or Quicktime Conversion

    I have created a 5 minute movie using shots taken from my Sony HDR-FX1. The shots were native 16:9. They imported fine into FCEHD. While editing in FCEHD, the clips all displayed in the viewer as 16:9. When I exported to Quicktime Movie, the resulting product was 16:9. When I exported using Quicktime Conversion, my product became 4:3.
    Having read other posts here, I looked closely at all clips (which were all checked as Anamorphic), and my Sequence (which was not checked Anamorphic -- but was instead HD1440x1080). I then created a new sequence, which was checked as Anamorphic, copied my clips to it, then exported it. It got worse. Now, it exports 4:3 using both Quicktime Movie and Quicktime Conversion.
    I then created a new project, created a new sequence set to Anamorphic, then copied one clip into it from my earlier project and exported it -- same result. I then imported a clip into this new project from the original files from my camera and exported -- same result.
    One final note, when looking at the Frame Size in the properties of my sequence and clips, it is set to 720x480. And, when I look at the Get Info on the exported files of the original, I see 1920x1080 (Quicktime Movie export) and 1440x1080 (Quicktime Conversion export) before I created the new sequence; then 720x480 in both after I created the new sequence.
    Any help you can provide would be incredibly appreciated!
    Dan

    You are right. My original sequence was marked as HD. When I exported that one to Quicktime Movie, it displayed 16:9.
    Then, I created a new sequence that was 720x480 and checked as anamorphic. That one, exported with Quicktime Movie and/or Quicktime Conversion was 720x480 and was squeezed into 4:3 rather than displaying in Quicktime as 16:9.
    Last night, I burned this to DVD using iMovie and it displayed properly on my 16:9 television. But, alas, it is squeezed on my 4:3 television (rather than letterboxed).
    Also, I exported to Quicktime Conversion and used "custom size" of 720x405 and achieved a movie that will play in Quicktime as near 16:9 so I can put it up on the web in the right dimensions.
    Is there a better/easier way to export footage shot 16:9, edited 16:9 so that it automatically exports 16:9 for use in Quicktime and/or on a DVD?

  • Is there any way to export 2.35 Anamorphic source to a 16x9 letterboxed frame WITH timecode or text overlays?

    I have been trying to export temp cuts of an anamorphic project (2.35:1) in a letterboxed 16:9 frame with timecode and text overlays and other Additional Video Effects. Converting the 2.35 to 16x9 has been a breeze with the Preserve Aspect Ratio option in Cropping & Padding . The problem is that the black bars that that puts in the 16:9 frame appear OVER any of the Additional Video Effects, thus covering them up.
    E.g. if I select a Text Overlay and place it in the Center, I can see it just fine. But if I want it Upper Left, Title Safe, it is covered by the black space of the Letterboxing. So the Additional Video Effects are getting added, they are just getting covered by the letterboxing. You can even see the very edge of the text in the Title Safe position, peeking out from behind the letterboxing, which is, of course, frustrating .
    Thus far it's been a two-step process: letterbox the anamorphic source, then add TC and other video effects in a second job.
    So - is there any way to do this in ONE step? It would really help my anamorphic workflow.
    (apologies for the lengthy question.)

    Thanks for the reply Russ.
    Yes, I've considered adding titles and/or generators in the FCPX storyline, but this creates a need to render the entire timeline. As I'm juggling library locations and hard drive spaces I just didn't want to add a new render that will occupy a lot of space. It's also a bit of visual clultter for me, so my goal is to find the best workflow for adding this stuff on or after export.
