Lost Video For Second Movie Clip When Combining 2 files

Good Evening Folks,
I have two rather large home videos I am trying to combine into one. They were recorded on different disks due to time limits per disk.
Both files are in M4V format. I am combining them using Quicktime 7 (a fully registered version I purchased through Apple for just this purpose).
My process is as follows:
1. Open both files in separate Quicktime Windows
2. On the SECOND file, click "Command + C" to copy audio/video
3. On FIRST file, click the >> button to get to the end of the file
4. Hit "Command + V" to paste the data from the second file into the first
5. Save the new, combined file as a new name
NOW, when I open the NEW, combined file in Quicktime, both video and audio work perfectly, and the resulting file is 1.96 GB. BUT, when I add that file to iTunes so it can be played via my Apple TV, the file keeps video and audio for the first half, and kees AUDIO for the second half, but loses video for the second half.
Can anyone think of anything I am doing wrong, or something I can do differently to get this to work (aside from keeping two separate files - I realize that's an option, but not preferable.
Thoughts?

FYI, the final combined file is a .MOV file, not a m4v.
Thanks.

Lost sound in some film clips when finishing project. Using iMovie 11, after adding music to photo section, could not get sound back in 2 film clips at end of movie. Beginning clips ok. How do I restore sound? Thx.

Everything in your project will be exported when you use the share menu.
If you want to export only half, I suggest that you
1) Select the project in the Project Library.
2) Click FILE/DUPLICATE PROJECT
3) Give the duplicate a name, like Project A snippet.
4) Open the duplicate project in the Project editor and delete the segments that you do not need.
5) Then Share.
You mentioned surrounding a portion of the clip you were editing in Yellow. Once you do this, you should right-click and then select either DELETE SELECTION, TRIM TO SELECTION, or one of the other options available. That is a key tool in editing.
You mentioned MPEG Streamclip. I agree that MPEG Streamclip is a great tool.

There is a little camera icon on a movie clip when I try to import it to iMovie from my iPad. I have reimported several times with the same result. When I disconnect the iPad I can no longer view the clip. Help!

HT4623 I have an iPad but can't download movie clips when received in either email or iPhoto. What do I have to do?

I have a new Ipad but cant download movie clips when received on eihter email or from Iphoto. My friend sent me a small holiday movie clip taken on Iphoto but I cant download it. What do I have to do?

The Settings > General > Software Update option only appears when you have iOS 5+ installed, as your tagline says that you have iOS 4 then you can only update via your computer's iTunes, as described half-way down the page that you posted from.
Connect the iPad to your computer's iTunes and copy any purchases off the iPad to your computer via File > Devices > Transfer Purchases. You may also want to copy photos and any important documents off the iPad as well e.g. via the file sharing section at the bottom of the device's apps tab when connected to iTunes, via wifi, email, dropbox etc - they should be included in the backup, but it's best to have a copy of them outside of the backup just in case. You can then force a backup of the iPad by right-clicking the iPad 'Device' on the left-hand sidebar of iTunes and selecting 'Backup' (on iTunes 11 you can enable the left-hand sidebar via option-command-S on a Mac, control-S on a PC)
Then start the update by selecting the iPad on the left-hand sidebar, and on the Summary tab on the right-hand side clicking the Check For Updates button
Updating to iOS 5+ : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4972
You can only update a device to the highest iOS version that it supports, which for a first gen iPad is is iOS 5.1.1, and for other iPads is iOS 6.1.3

Multiple Preloaders for Multiple Movie Clips

Designed in Flash 8, the site's timeline is all in Scene 1
and is comprised of an introduction, which contains a short video,
and 6 movie clip categories that the user selects to view. Since I
want the intro to play as soon as possible, I'd like to limit the
first preloader to just the video in the intro and not
_root.getBytesTotal. Then, as the viewer watches this short video,
the rest of Scene 1 movie clips will keep on loading. After the
intro, the viewer will choose which of the 6 categories to view.
These categories are identified with buttons which play the
particular movie clip. Since I don't know the order of the
categories they will select, I thought there should be a separate
preloader for each category. Hopefully, after they view a category,
the rest of the categories will have loaded and the loading time
will be nil. The design for the preloader is comprised of a status
bar and a percent loaded. Is there a way to limit the
_root.GetBytesTotal to specific frames? I know I could break these
categories up into separate SWF files but then I loose the
advantage of one loading while another is being viewed.

MovieClipLoader is a built in class of functions that will
allows you to easily load Media (swfs/jpgs) from external sources.
This will create a MCL object
var mcl:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader
We want the MCL object to receive events for any movie that
is loaded into the main timeline
mcl.addListener(this);
Ok. now we have a movie clip loader that is able to recieve
events. Since we want to show the progressive download and want to
do something with that content after it loads, we need to declare
two event handlers onLoadProgress and onLoadInit. onLoadProgress is
pretty straight forward. onLoadInit executes it's action as soon
all of the AS on frame 1 of its time has finished loading. In this
case, we want two different things to happen. 1st, load the first
clip and show it.... 2nd, load all remaining clips into the buffer.
But first, lets declare those next...
function onLoadProgress( target:MovieClip,
bytesLoaded:Number, bytesTotal:Number):Void {
// standard preloader code goes here
function onLoadInit( target:MovieClip ):Void {
// display the clip - this will be as easy as just calling
our loadClip function for the mcl...more on that in a minute
// If you want something special to happen, i.e. movie fades
in or a mask is applied to it, you'd do that here.
Now all we need to do is call the loadClip member function
for the MovieClipLoader. Just replace the two parameters with the
location of the swf and then the name of the instance you want it
to load into
mcl.loadClip( "myswf.swf", targetMovieClip );
The other movie clips are now a breeze as well. For each
button, just add an on(release) or onRelease = function (depending
on your situation) to just call that mcl.loadClip() line from up
above. Just change the movie you want loaded.
Let me know if you need more help...

HitTest for multiple Movie Clip at the same time

I have a movie it is a triangle.I duplicate it and I want to hitTest on the first triangle movie clip and I added 3 different line movie clips on the 3 side of triangle.I tried to write a code something like that.
if(firstTriangle_mc.hitTestObject(line1_mc,line2_mc,line_3mc){
trace("Ok");
but I've got error.I think it is not allowed hitTestObject for multiple Movie Clips.So is there anyone have an opinion about it?What should I do?

Here is another test for multiple movie clips for hitTestPoint but only the first work the others don't
uc_mc.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,hitle);
function hitle(e:Event) {
if (uc_mc.hitTestPoint(cub1,cub1Y,true)&&(cub2,cub2Y,true)&&(cub3,cub3Y,true)) {
uc_mc.alpha=0.5;
}else{
uc_mc.alpha=1;
The code above doesn't work.What should I do?

Dynamic Instance for a MOVIE CLIP

Hi Please help me!!!!!!!!!!
I am creating dynamic Movie Clip using as3, but I don't have
any idea about dynamic Instance name, please give me some idea that
how I can assign Instance name for a movie clip.
I am waiting your reply.
Thanks
Sushil Kumar

You can assign a value to the name property of the MovieClip,
but refering to the variable name of your MovieClip instance is
preferable. This code illustrates the difference:

How to retain numerical order (Of file names) when combining files in Acrobat (9) Standard

How to retain numerical order (Of file names) when combining files in Acrobat (9) Standard, please see the attached screenshot for a clearer explanation.
I understand that if we prefix all files with leading zero's this will probably resolve the issue but I just wondered if anyone new the answer. The ironic situation is that version 6 has no problem.
I have spent over an hour with techincal support who were unable to provide me with an answer

It is not clear how you are trying to do the order. Have you tried to select a set of files and then use the arrow buttons to move them in the list? If you select the heading, that will typically reorder the files by that heading and undo everything you had done before.
You should be able to select groups of files and move them up and down in the list. All of those options appear on your view, so what is the real question?

We get this error on every subsequent file, it works on the first one after the computer starts.
This computer has Windows Vista Business with SP2, Adobe Acrobat X with the latest patches.
It doesn't matter if the files are local or on a network drive, the same always occurs. I have cleared
all user and system temporary files, re-installed, verified the Acrobat Add-In for Word 2010 is active,
verifed the PDF printer is working fine. It only happens when trying to combine files. I have given the
user local administrator privilidges, tried with my account that has domain admin priviledges, no luck.
I really need some suggestions...
Thanks,
Tom

I have found out from Adobe technical support that this is a known issue with Office 2010 SP1 installed.
This is an FYI for anyone else experiencing this issue, remove SP1 and it will work ok.
They said an update to correct this issue will be coming within the next quarter.

Error (file skipped) when combining files

Getting an error message on some files(error file skipped)@ when combining files, the properties of the files with errors are the same as the files which are okay. Anyone got a fix for this?

No the the files aren’t protected. But I solved the problem by copying the files to another folder.
Seems like another process was still using the files(strange but that’s data for you)

When combining files, conversion keeps failing with a red notice that the document is password protected. I was combining all pdf files and had just been successful with some of the same content under a different file name. What is wrong and how do I correct it?

Hey SUSANO,
I am sorry but you cannot combine files if they are password protected.
You can check the same under 'File > Properties> Security

Single droptarget for multiple movie clips

I have a movie clip which i use as a drop target. And I have four additional movie clips which can be dragged and dropped into the droptarget movie clip. But when I place a movie clip into a droptarget and I drop the second one too, the droptarget for the second one becomes the first movie clip but not the actual droptarget movie clip.
Please suggest.

Thank you for the reply. Can you give me an idea what the below code does?
mainContainer is a movie clip. mc1, mc2 are three movie clips
mainContainer.addChild( mc1 );
and while dropping mc2
mc2._droptarget - what this will refer to?

ICloud vs YouTube: what's best for storing movie clips?

Hello all, I'm looking for pros and cons of using either of them. With my iPhone I am regularly recording movie clips that a few minutes, and need to store them somewhere and share some of them with specific user. I have an iMac running 10.6 as well.
I am considering YouTube as it is directly integrated with iOS camera but i am wondering what are the limitations in terms of data size. I currently store the 150-350 MB movie clips on my iMac and i've got around 30 of them. But i plan to make more (up to 100?) and to make some space on my Mac.

Thanks for the information about iCloud storage, Julian.
However, the purpose of this thread is more to compare online storage solutions and share experience about their online storage rather than talk about iCloud or YouTube (can an admin change the title?). What vendor do you use? What video format? How big are your files? Satisfied with it?
Bellow is a storage vendor comparison from CNET :
http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-13727_7-57428396-263/cloud-based-storage-options-fo r-mac-os-x/
Most of my move clips are actually lower that 150 MB. But somestimes it is higher and when I tested Dropbox, it would not accept a file bigger than 300MB, and 2 GB storage free is quite low.
Therefore, I will most likely choose upload via YouTube as private or unlisted. It looks like the limit is 2GB in size and 15 minutes maximum per file. There is some tuning that is recommended on Mac:

How do I assign a mouseclick event Listener to a simplebutton already nested in a movie clip when it's dropped on stage?

I'm trying to assign a mouseclick event listener to a simplebutton nested within a movie clip's later frames, starting at frame 2 and up. This card, however, is not added to my game until later, and when the player clicks on it/turns it over.
There are four files involved in this program:
#1 The main actionscript file, which corresponds to
#2 my dreamQuester .fla file.
#3 my artifactCard file movieClip's corresponding .as file,
#4 my combo1.as file corresponding to a an instance of a simpleButton named combo1 that is already
nested --and this instance is already named-- inside/as a child of said artifactCard movieclip.
What I've done so far isn't working:
In my main dreamQuester.as file, when a player clicks on an artifactCard, its MOUSE_DOWN event
listener takes them to this function (clickArtCard), where the trouble is at:
// player clicked on the artC card--which is a child of posArt1 on stage--to turn card over:
        function clickArtCard(a_event:MouseEvent) {
            var thisArtCard:artifactCard = (a_event.target as artifactCard);
            thisArtCard.gotoAndStop(unclickedArt1); // go to frame number of artifact
                                // card where combo1 button is.
            thisArtCard.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,clickArtCard);
            thisArtCard.buttonMode = false;
            trace("combo1.combo is:" + combo1.combo);
            trace("posArt1.artC.combo1 is:" + posArt1.artC.combo1);
            posArt1.artC.combo1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, comboClickedWHO);
when the artC card--the static public instance of artifactCard--is clicked, it only gets to the
trace("posArt1.artC.combo1 is:" + posArt1.artC.combo1); which returns this error message:
TypeError: Error #1010: A term is undefined and has no properties.
    at MethodInfo-61()
So do how would I declare a static public variable of this simpleButton at the start of my main .as
file to make it defined to get a mouseDown actionListener into my pre-existing-and-named-instance
combo1 simpleButton?
perhaps there is a way, while the debug movie program is running, to click on the simpleButton and see exactly
what it's parent heirarchy is, to see the name of all parents above the simpleButton incase they are
different then what I think?
(just in case, I was hoping to squeeze a zip file containing these files to be less than 9MB incase someone was willing to look at my files to see what I've done so far, but 9 megs is just too big! even though all graphics I've imported where turned into vector graphics with trace bitmap. I wish there was a way to check the file size of each symbol in Flash CS4, here...)
Thank you so much for any help!
~Ethan

Just use a
stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, keyPressed);
function keyPressed(event:KeyboardEvent):void {
     //trace(event.keyCode);
     if(event.keyCode == ???){
          // play the sound
Where I show the "???" you would replace with the keyCode for the key you want pressed for that sound. To determine the keyCode you can use the trace line that I have commented out.
Note that when testing in Flash you often need to disable the keyboard shortcuts in the Flash Player in order to be able to use alot of the keys. You will find this option in the Control menu options in the player.
