Large file after Exporting to wmv file

I just exported an mp4 file to windows media (wmv) and the file is 4x larger than the original. Is that normal after a conversion?
Nano

I have a similarly related problem. I am converting some video files to .m4v and i notice that even though the total size of the new files will be (for example) 1gig, the size of the folder i save the files to will be around 7gigs. i accidently saved a group of files to the desktop and it seems to have curtailed my harddrive size. i was wondering if you knew of a way to find all the extra fat and free the space back up on my harddrive.

  • After exporting to quicktime file, the file has sound but no video, what am I doing wrong?

    after exporting to quicktime file, the file has sound but no video, what am I doing wrong?  The self contained movie box is not checked.

    Hi
    Did You go via Compressor ?
    Did You use QuickTime Conversion ?
    I don't
    I do
    • In TimeLine set In and Out-Points to the full Movie/Project
    • Select ALL - Clips and Audio
    • Go up to Sequence and down to Render Only - down to Mix Down Audio
    • then Sequense and Render Selected - Both (Video and Audio)
    • then Export and as QuickTime .mov (NOTHING ELSE)
    • I use to do - Not Self-Contained as it saves both time and space
    Your Start-Up (Mac OS) Hard Disk - Needs lot's of free space to work OK - I never go under 25Gb free space on this one,

  • Cannot Open Excel File after exporting from Disco Plus

    Hi there,
    I got a question from one user having issue with opening Excel file after exporting from Disco Plus.
    The report has been using for a while and he is using Excel 2003 version and Discoverer 10g(10.1.2.2), he never got this kind of error before, just recently got error.
    After exporting from Disco Plus he saved file on his desktop and when he tries to open the excel it says "Cannot be Accessed, can be corrupted...." but this is not from network drive since he saved file on local desktop or C drive.
    Also not for all reports, only this particular report and only specific parameter, for example for parameter 2008 Feb opened successfully, but for2009 Feb he gets this error when trying to open excel.
    i tried in excel 2007 also , i dont think this is Excel version error, am not sure.
    Also after go live last week (we upgraded database from 9i to 10g) but i am not sure this causes ,since for one parameter working, for other parameter not working.
    Actually we should get one window for Macro when we try to open excel, but he is not getting it seems.
    Any ideas/thoughts on this would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks for your help

    Rod,
    Thanks for your quick response on this.
    Yes, we can export to other formats as well, but actually exporting is working, after saving the file on our local desktop/drive and when we try to open we get this kind messages or we cannot open the file, we should get message window for Macro to enable/disable but for this report we are not getting this either,
    Also this happens only for specific parameters,like i mentioned above it works I mean excel file opens for one set of parameters but for some other set of parameters cannot open.
    For example :- when we enter FEB 2008 it works, if we enter FEB 2009 it won't open the file.
    This is weird
    I am still working on this issue, may be better to recreate the report again might be helpful,
    Any ideas/comments/thoughts would be great
    Thanks

  • How to Export a WMV file in High Quality but low MB?

    How to Export a WMV file in High Quality but low MB?

    I'm really afraid you are the only person who can answer that.
    ANY compression is totally relative: what do you think is small? What do you define as high quality?
    I can get a 5 minute wmv file at just under 100mb that I find acceptable for browser downloads. You might think that's too big. I don't.
    Trial and error is the only way. Personally, I've set up a compressor preset to crunch my wmv files. While it's doing it's thing, I can do something else.

  • Good evening. When I try to rename a master file or export a master file, it only allows 9 spaces for my new name, even though Aperature 3 allows many more spaces than that for version names. This creates a lot of problems and headaches for me.

    Good evening. When I try to rename a master file or export a master file, Aperature 3 only recognizes the first 9 spaces for raw .NEF files, even though it easily uses twice that many spaces for version names. I have a system in place that works really well for me, wherein by changing the file name I can recognize what's important to me just by glancing at the file name, no matter what system it is in, I do not have to open or mouse over anything to know what the file is. My files also arrange themselves in order no matter what file system they are in. Can someone please tell me if there is a setting, or something I am doing wrong, that prevents me from using a longer Master file name. I can't be the only person who would like to have his Master File names correspond to the name that appears in the Aperature library, and would like to use at least 16 spaces (numbers, letters, etc.)
    Thanks,

    Hi Frank,
    As you suggested, I am attaching several screen shots. In the first one you can see how I set up my preset. I used "Custom Name" and "Counter" with a dot between the two drag ins, followed by "D90". I also have a dot to seperate the 8 digits in the Custom Name and make it easier to read.
    I then click "OK" which takes us to the second screen shot. Here you can see that in the Example File Name everything looks perfect, and you can see I have clicked on "Apply to Master Files".
    In the third screen shot you can see that the version in my library did in fact change correctly. With the "mouse over" pop up screen you can see, however, that the Master File name was changed  to "1933.1017.NEF". It failed to carry the "12D90" and if I go to where my masters are stored that is exactly what the name was changed to.
    In the fourth screen shot I attempt to export the master. You can see how my "Version Name" is set up.
    And finally on the 5th screen shot you see in the File Name Example the name "1933.1017.NEF" once again, which when I export the master is exactly how the name will appear. Since I will export more than one file at a time , a (1) and  a (2)  etc., will appear at the end of the names because all the files are being given the same "1933.1017.NEF" name.
    I hope this reply does a better job of clarifying my problem. I am anxious to see if this is something I simply misunderstood, or if I am simply doing something wrong.
    Thanks,

  • Extra Large File after Exporting Keynotes09/08 to PowerPoint

    I recently exported a Keynote 09 file to PowerPoint format. The KN09 file size was 7.1M (Note: It was imported from KN08, where the file size was @8.5M. The KN09 further went through a 'Reduce File Size). When I exported the KN09 file to PPT, the size of the PPT file became 44.8M, which is slightly more than 6 times the original size. Why is this happening, and is there a way to downsize the PPT file upfront, or have it within the range of the KN09 file size, ie upfront in KN?
    Fyi, I have also tried the same thing on KN08, ie export it to PPT, and it ended up with the same situation.
    Thanks in advance for your assistance.
    Thim

    Much thanks for your quick reply, Brian, and also for the info on the embedded themes, etc. While waiting for a response, what I did was to remove all the special effects/transition for the bullet points as well as the slides in KN09, changed the themes to 'blank' and the Master/Appearance/ Background to a single colour, plus removing the shadows, etc. Thereafter, I saved the KN09 file (to another name), and exported it PDF to test out the file size (as previous attempt also ended up in a BIG file size. With this, I managed to downsize the KN09 file from originally 7.6Mb to 728Kb (KN09) and 260Kb (PDF) respectively. Have not converted the new KN file of 728Kb to PPT yet, but I would think the file size for this should be reasonably smaller, as compared to a direct export from KN09 to PPT (of 44.8 Mb). I would also think that after converting the downsized KN09 file to PPT, and put in the effects, the file should not be that big - definitely less than 44.8Mb!
    Thanks again, and have a wonderful day. Greatly appreciated.

  • Lost CR files after exporting to jpg

    I seem to have lost many original CR files after import > developing > export as jpg.  I had made selects to develop and then output images as lower rez jpgs.  When I went back to the original folders (on an external hd) those CR select files were missing / a gap in the photo sequence now exists and I cannot locate the originals regardless of searches.  How is this possible?

    Lightroom does not delete your photos unless you specifically tell Lightroom to do so, and this wouldn't happen in an Export operation anyway.
    So I don't know how this is possible, but I'm pretty sure it can't be blamed on Lightroom
    You need to:
    1) check the Recycle bin; or if that doesn't work
    2) restore the photos from backups, or if you don't have backups (why not?); or if that doesn't work
    3) you can try to download something called an undelete utility and install it and see if it can find these photos (and if you are going to need this step, perform it immediately, do not do anything else on your computer)

  • 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..

  • Saving PSD files after exporting from Lightroom saves incorrectly

    I've only recently moved to Lightroom from using Photoshop/Bridge together, so I'm not 100% sure how saving files exported from Lightroom should go. But here's what I experience:
    Base edit of file within Lightroom
    In library view, right click on image -> Edit in -> Open as Smart Object in Photoshop
    Perform all my necessary edits and such
    File -> Save As, and save it to another location as a PSD file (totally different HDD)
    Perform more edits....
    Shortcut CTRL+S to save, and it saves it as the TIFF file under the location it was originally in within Lightroom
    Eh...? Am I missing something. It should just save as the original PSD I created when I went "Save As". I have seen on a few occasions, immediately after "Save As", the file name resorts back to TIFF and not as PSD.
    My settings for External Editing in Lightroom are as follows:
    File Format: TIFF
    Color Space: ProPhoto RGB
    Bit Depth: 16 bits/component
    Resolution: 300
    Compression: None
    Does anyone have any ideas what I'm doing wrong? Also, to note, that sometimes I double click on the Smart Object within Photoshop to load Camera Raw and perform some edits, but not often.

    Re Camera Raw being used to pass an image to Photoshop
    a) I am assuming this is independent of the Compatibility level in Preferences\File Handling DNG creation.
    b) Does the same apply to other photo editing software made by Adobe like Elements?.
    Reply: Yes, the principle is the same. Photoshop Elements cannot read raw data either. That's why it has to be converted before it's opened.
    c) Assume that I have LR 5.7.1 and CS5. Is Camera Raw is still used to pass an image to Photoshop? If so, why is there a need to get LR to behave differently?
    Reply: Camera Raw is used IF you choose the option to open anyway. Then Camera Raw will be used to convert the image that's opened in Photoshop. But since it is older than Lightroom some of the new adjustments might not be transferred to Photoshop. That's why there is a need to let the user make the choice.
    d) Sometimes it does seem as if Adobe might be using Camera Raw updates and process version updates to get consumers to change their habits, this includes having to buy subscriptions or having to change workflow to some ideal that somebody at Adobe or working with Adobe might have in mind.
    Reply: The fact is that in the past, when a new version of Photoshop is released then all support and updates cease for the previous version. Since the introduction of the creative cloud, at least users of Photoshop CS6  get support for new cameras. They just don't get the new features. Yes, there's motivation to upgrade. Adobe is a business. What do you really expect?
    Re stacks
    I find impossible to see collapsed stacks on the film strip. Stacks are only visible on the Library module and using a grid view; I don't say clearly visible because they are only recognisable by the label at the top left corner with the image count; I don't even think it is possible to change the colour of that label or the grey colour surrounding an image. Also I cannot name stacks. If I could name stacks, see them as virtual folders underneath a library folder and make them glaringly visible I would use them extensively.
    Reply: The only reason I can think of that you are unable to see collapsed stacks on the filmstrip is if you have the filmstrip reduced in size to the point that Lightroom can't display all the icons. I'm able to see the collapsed stacks in the library grid view and on my filmstrip
    Re storing your Raw files and processed files in separate locations
    Assuming Raw files are negatives and Photoshop files are transparencies or prints, would you want negatives being handled/read on a regular basis? If anything happens to your negatives, you would never be able to produce another print or another transparency again.
    Reply: The raw files or the negatives, as you put it, are never modified by Lightroom. They always remain in their pristine state they were in when they were imported. If I have a backup of that raw file then I can do whatever I want to the one in my working folder. Resetting that raw file so that it looks unaltered is just a click away.
    I have worked extensively with databases and database systems, it is a standard feature of database systems to be able to choose where to store different database objects. I don't see why LR cannot do the same, it is a database after all. I do agree with both the OP and photo.
    Reply: Well, I won't argue that point. If that's what you really want than lobby for it. It just won't get my vote because I don't see any real advantage.
    If you read back through this quoted message you'll find that my replies are included. I don't know how to separate them out so they are highlighted properly. Read through it and think about it. But personally, I don't want to waste anymore time on this discussion because it isn't accomplishing anything in my opinion.

  • Viewing ePub files after export

    I am new to InDesign running a new installation of CS5.5 with latest update on a new Mac. Whenever I export a file to ePub format, the file is displayed in Text Edit, but it is empty. Only after viewing the file in a different viewer did I realize that I, in fact, did have content in my ePub file. Obviously, TextEdit does not display ePub files. True? Is there an alternative to viewing exported ePub files through InDesign?
    My apologies if this is a duplicate post; I received an error message when I first tried to post this message.

    There are several epub viewer for the Computer.

  • Exporting existing .wmv files using CS4

    Another department at my work made a series of training .wmv files using Camtasia. Each video is 1024x 768. They want me to put them in Premiere and
    output them all as one long video. Since they are .wmv that means they are alrady compressed what export settings should I choose to insure that I
    don't recompress them?
    Also I set the output size to be 1024 x 768 (the same size as the originals) but the rendered video comes out looking cropped.
    Actually it seems more like the visible part of the video is slightly enlarged thereby making the egdes go off screen. Can anyone give me some advice
    on this project?
    Thanks,
    Al

    Unfortunately, unless you can get another Export from Camtasia, you have no choice. The WMV's will have to be uncompressed, either internally, or via a conversion program, to be edited. You will then re-compress them, for Export. That is the biggest problem when working with compressed material.
    Actually, Windows Movie Maker might be your best bet, as it is designed to work with the WMV CODEC's. PrPro is not.
    Good luck,

  • Low quality exports as .wmv files

    Hello,
    I'm using Premiere Pro CS4/Windows XP.
    I've seen a couple other posts relating to this subject, but was wondering if someone could advise me on the best way to export to achieve a 320x240 wmv file. I'm scaling down from an avi file, edited with chroma key so I could replace the background.
    I tried some of the NTSC Source export settings, but was unable to open the exported wmvs on my computer. The only setting that seems to work is the Zune Video setting, which specifically exports to the size I need. However, the quality is not very good.
    Will I ever be able to achieve a wmv file that matches the quality of H264/mp4? We're using a webcast service which requires us to upload either wmv or flv videos, so are rather limited.
    If anyone can recommend the best settings, I would be extremely grateful.
    Thank you,
    Christine

    hiya,
    might as well post this here....
    Bill...just did wmv export for youtube ( sample as per other thread )
    to bring into focus for this post...I am putting my project settings too...basically I matched the project settings except for the audio going down to 44khz from 48...  I coulda kept that at 48khz...
    IF THIS was interlaced I would check the box that says " allow interleaving "...
    IF THIS was interlaced that I want to export progressive I would check "deinterlace" and NOT have allow interleaving" checked....also I would make the progressive dimensions roughly HALF of the interleaved size...cause you lose half the vertical resolution going from interleaved to progressive.
    In my sample for youtube I really crank up the bitrate... seems to work well....as it gets converted by youtube...
    added some youtube screens also, reference how to upload the video to that place...for Bill ----
    NOTE: The settings put you into a custom mode...where you are choosing all your settings..not a preset ...

  • How to delete the doubled file after exporting through iTunes?

    When I exported an iMovie project from the iPad to Mac via iTunes, it created another file about the size of the movie project (about 5GB in my case).
    Now that I exported the project, I want to keep the movie on the iPad but free that extra 5GB used to prepare the file for export. How do I do that?
    Thanks for any hint.

    Just delete the project in the iTunes/Apps/Sharing pane.
    Once you have saved the file off, you can delete it from the Sharing Pane.
    IMovie uses an internal area to save the project it edits, so the project in the sharing pane is a duplicate as you say.
    You can only delete this file in iTunes though.

  • Import from dsv files and export to csv files

    hi every body..
    how can I create a project in NetBeans which does:
    1- import a .dsv (Delimiter-Separated Values) file content and save it to array
    - the values in this format separated by fixed commas
    example
    "AIG" "Insurance" "64.91" "25/11/06"
    2- export into .csv file (Comma Separated Value)
    -the values in this format separated by commas
    example:
    AIG,Insurance,64.91,25/11/06

    Well, you need to learn Java so you can read files, divide the data by the delimiters, and then write it out as a csv file.
    Can't really give better instructions than that...maybe start by reading the basic tutorials?
    We don't give out full program code here so you'll need to ask more precise questions. Such as what is it that you're having problems with.
