M2v video files in Soundtrack Pro

Good day everybody. I encountered the following problem: Soundtrack Pro works very slow and unstable if I use m2v video.
Any comments?
Thank you.

I know But it takes a superfluous time to transcode .m2V files to QT. But it seems I have to do this next time. Any comments more, maybe?

  • How do I import mp4 video files into Premiere Pro Cs4

    For sometime now, I've been finding it practically impossible to import video files into premiere Pro cs4 especially mp4 files which happens to be the commonest to me now, as I currently shoot with a Nokia Lumia 920 phone with Windows phone 8 OS. I have tried severally to convert the videos into various other formats using Xilisoft video converter version 7.7.2 and each time I do this, they would either not play fine in cs4 or not import at all.
    Please what can I do to be able to import these mp4 files into Cs4 or what format or how do I convert them into a format that would play seamlessly for better editing?
    Funny enough, I had once imported video files that were shot with the same phone and they worked well, just wondering why they aren't now.
    Please any assistance would be appreciated.
    Thanks

    I'm happy to announce to you all that my "mp4 importing" issues has been sorted out. Now I import mp4 shot with the same Windows Phone 8 Device into Adobe Premiere Pro CS4. Only that for the moment, it doesn't play as fast as with ordinary player.
    But how did I get it to work, you may wonder;
    I simply installed Itunes on the system, I also installed an app called media monkey. I can't say which of the apps did the magic but the next time I tried to import mp4 files into Premiere Pro after these installations, it imported seamlessly.
    Obviously there's a link between the required codecs and the itunes itself.
    You may want to try it and hope it works for you.
    Kindly inform us if it works.
    Thank you all.
    Cheers.

  • Exchange audio files in Soundtrack Pro

    Im experimenting with mastering audio files in Soundtrack Pro 3.0.1. 
    I am wondering if I can swap audio files in and out of the same project file - so I can keep the same STP effects settings while changing the audio file version from v1 to v2.  Does this make sense?
    As a side question... would it be better to convert the output from 24 to 16 bit (and dither it) in Soundtrack, or let that happen when it imports into iTunes? 
    Thanks for helping a complete stranger.  That always amazes and inspires me. 

    Didnt know how to remove the original clip from the STP arrange window - or whatever it's called in STPro.  So I could go no further in my perverse science experiment. 
    It also appeared that I could only import an aif but not a wav? 
    I gave up on STPro and did what I needed to do in Logic, which I use regularly.    
    Thank you for folowing up on this. 
    PS.  I used to use an old PowerPC version (1.0.3) of STPro and loved the way it visually showed the change in the waveform when you added each efffect.  It appears that the new version (3.0.1) does not allow you to do this anymore?  You can render or flatten the effects to see the final waveform, but then you are dead in the water and cant make changes?  
    Im such a newbie at STPro that I am probably not using it right? 

  • Files from soundtrack pro play really slow in FCP

    I tired searching the threads and couldnt find an answer
    I'm trying to lay down a music bed in FCP before i edit a sequence.
    I went into SOundtrack pro and listened to it.. looping music bed 40.aiff
    sounds awesome.
    go over to fcp.. click on import and i find the file amongst my libary and stuff
    then i laid it into my sequence and the playback is really slow.
    i can;t figure it out.
    any help guys?

    Sorry it took so long for you to find an answer, happens sometimes. Your bump can bring the wrath of the forum curmudgeons down upon your weenie little head but you got a good response to a post that got lost off the bottom of the page.
    You're going to find digital video is full of weird little gotchas like this audio sampling rate thingy. Frame rates. And pixel aspect ratios. And color spaces. &c. I remember when video was just luminance.

  • Unexpected problem: uncaught exception when working with audio files in Soundtrack Pro

    Hey,
    Whenever I double click an audio file in the timeline to work on it, I end up getting the Error message: "Unexpected problem: uncaught exception" and Soundtrack Pro eventually crashes.  Also, this happens when I try to work with audio files in the file editor.  I have Leopard and am using Logic Studio 8.  Any insight would be much appreciated. Thanks

  • How can I edit a VRO video file in Premiere Pro CC

    I have a VRO video file stored on my windows based pc and would like to edit it with Premiere Pro CC.  How can I get Premiere Pro CC to recognise this file and allow me to edit it?

    Change the extention to vob or mpg maybe that will do the trick,
    or google for the AVS Video Tools VRO Converter.

  • Stitching together video files using QT Pro

    I'm new to using quicktime pro, so I was wondering if anyone knew how to combine several video files into one?
    thanks.

    With QuickTime Pro, you can easily add one movie to another to make one longer movie.
    To combine two movies:
    1. In QuickTime Player, choose Edit > Select All to select the entire contents of the first movie.
    2. Choose Edit > Copy, then open the second movie.
    3. Move the playhead to the point at which you want to insert the movie (usually the very beginning or end of the original movie), and choose Edit > Paste.
    4. Choose File > Save As to name and save the new movie.

  • Creating a Video Podcast in Soundtrack Pro

    sorry, posted this in the wrong place

    I'm not sure if this information will help you or not...but I did a podcast in Soundtrack Pro and saved it (using their podcast tutorial) to an M4A file. (I have an enhanced podcast.) I had trouble submitting the entire complete podcast to itunes, until I imported it to garage band, then iweb and filled out the podcast info again and let iweb submit it to itunes...they must do encoding in the back office of those programs, and my podcast was accepted by itunes everything intact. It appears that garage band and itunes know just what to compress to make it podcast ready. I have met with mac genius's, and done one on one appointments, but no one at my Mac store had ever submitted a podcast using Soundtrack Pro, so I knew more than they did having read the tutuorials. I'll watch this post to see what else you learn...as education about making Final Cut stuff podcast available in itunes is hard to find.

  • Playing .exe or .dvr video files on macbook pro.

    I know that .exe means executable files which are windows files, and i know that these files don't contain viruses i backed up video files from our surveillance video at a location that isn't at home. i want to view these files on mac and do a project on iMovie.

    A .exe cannot be used on a Mac. You would need a PC or run Windows on your Mac. I'm not familiar with the .dvr format. It may be possible to convert them to a format playable on a Mac.
    Windows on Intel Macs
    There are presently several alternatives for running Windows on Intel Macs.
    1. Install the Apple Boot Camp software. Purchase Windows XP w/Service Pak 2 or Vista. Follow instructions in the Boot Camp documentation on installation of Boot Camp, creating Driver CD, and installing Windows. Boot Camp enables you to boot the computer into OS X or Windows.
    2. Parallels Desktop for Mac and Windows XP, Vista Business, Vista Ultimate, or Windows 7. Parallels is software virtualization that enables running Windows concurrently with OS X.
    3. VM Fusionand Windows XP, Vista Business, Vista Ultimate, or Windows 7. VM Fusion is software virtualization that enables running Windows concurrently with OS X.
    4. CrossOver which enables running many Windows applications without having to install Windows. The Windows applications can run concurrently with OS X.
    5. VirtualBox is a new Open Source freeware virtual machine such as VM Fusion and Parallels that was developed by Solaris. It is not as fully developed for the Mac as Parallels and VM Fusion.
    6. Last is Q. Q is a freeware emulator that is compatible with Intel Macs. It is much slower than the virtualization software, Parallels and VM Fusion.
    Note that Parallels and VM Fusion can also run other operating systems such as Linux, Unix, OS/2, Solaris, etc. There are performance differences between dual-boot systems and virtualization. The latter tend to be a little slower (not much) and do not provide the video performance of the dual-boot system.
    See MacTech.com's Virtualization Benchmarking for comparisons of Boot Camp, Parallels, and VM Fusion.
    Boot Camp is only available with Leopard or Snow Leopard. The Boot Camp Beta that was used with Tiger has expired and is no longer available for use. So contrary to the other poster's comment, Boot Camp isn't truly "free." You must purchase Leopard or Snow Leopard to get it.

  • Nokia N8 - Sending large video files via email pro...

    Hello, When I try to send a pretty large video file via email on my N8 I get the following error "Memory low. Delete or move some data from C: Phone memory." However my videos are stored on my memory card which has plenty of space so I am confused and not sure what to do
    I hope someone can help me on this, any help is greatly appreciated.
    Thank You.

     My best guess would be that the N8 temporarily caches the video to C: memory when sending via Email and therefore the file size exceeds the available free memory on C:.
     I'm not sure the email server will allow the sending of files larger than a certain limit anyway, so you may be out of luck if you want to send any videos via email.

  • Editing video file in Quicktime Pro and producing a file which doesn't play

    Hi all,
    I have been editing some mp4 video in Quicktime Pro by setting the in and out position markers and cutting out segments (commercials). I save the file and end up with a .mov file which plays fine in the Quicktime player. (The file is a self-contained Quicktime movie.) At some point in the future, though, when I go to open the file in the Quicktime Player, only the audio plays. The video does not play, and the file opens as if it contained no video. That is, the Quicktime Player only shows the audio controls, and there's no area for video.
    The same file plays fine in a Finder window when using CoverFlow/QuickView mode, which is very strange to me since I assume that uses the same Quicktime engine. It also plays fine in VLC.
    Any ideas? It seems like there's some attribute on the file which is telling the Quicktime Player not to play the video, only play the audio.
    Thanks in advance,
    Russ

    Any ideas?
    First thing I would do when the file opens as an audio only files is check the "Properties" window to see what it says on a track by track basis. I also might try re-compressing the edited file to see if this prevents whatever is going on.

  • Compressing large video files in QT Pro

    Hello,
    I've been recording videos with my Kodak Zi8 camera set to 1080p, as I figured it's easier to scale down later than to scale up. As a result, I have some .MOV files that are 4 GB for 90 minutes long and consist of 1920 x 1080 video in H.264 format with AAC audio. What is the best way to edit such a video so that it fits within Vimeo's 2 GB upload limit? I have QuickTime Pro but no other commercial video package (though am open to affordable alternatives). I know video is an intensive process and would like to be able to convert at least one video a day.
    Thank you,
    -Ken

    Thanks for the suggestions, all.
    I guess what I'm asking is: what is the best process by which to shrink this file? Should I transcode it into a different format or compression method? If so, which one? Or should I scale down the resolution? If so, by how much? When I previously tried scaling it down, it appeared that it would take 24 hours to convert the entire video. Is that an accurate estimate?

  • Need Help Importing Video Files Into Premiere Pro 1.5

    Hello,
    I recently bought a JVC Everio with the built in hard drive so need for capturing anymore. Anyway, when I went to import the footage that I recorded on the camera, Premiere says "File Format Not Supported". When I dragged the clips off of the JVC's harddrive each clip had two files one type was a .MOI and the other type of clip said MOV and the clip number like MOV042 for clip number 42. Do I need some type of video converter to open these in Premiere? I can't even import them in Windows Movie Maker, they don't need to be great quality or anything just some music performance clips I wanted to throw on Youtube. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Jason

    After my "learning session," I also thought of another resource for you. Besides the PE forum (in the old days, I know that they had a FAQ on the JVC files, but I do not think that it has been restored yet), you might want to post to the "Community" area, basically their fora, over at Muvipix. I know that there has been much discussion on the JVC files there, and believe that several forum members use those cameras. Might be some easy steps to convert your files so that PrPro can use them properly.
    Good luck,

  • Cannot import .mov video files into Premiere Pro CS4

    Hi Everyone,
    I have Premiere Pro CS4 and cannot import .mov files into my project.  When I try Premiere freezes up and has to be closed.  I'm running Windows 7 and have a Gateway DX4300-11 with a Quad-Core AMD processor with 8 Gigs of ram although the Adobe CS4 programs only seem to recognize 4 Gigs at startup.  How do I get Premiere to import .mov files?
    TR

    What is the CODEC in your MOV file(s)? MOV is but a "wrapper," like AVI. This ARTICLE will give you some background. It could be that you just need the proper CODEC, or it could be that it is a Mac-only CODEC, and then you will need for the producer to Export in another CODEC, that is PC-compatible.
    This ARTICLE will give you some background on CODEC's, in general.
    Good luck,

  • Seeing duplicate files in Soundtrack Pro

    In the search tab I see to be getting 2 of each sound file appear. Is there away to make it so I only get one? Eg. I get the file 'Whoosh Down.caf' appear twice.

    Click the Setup tab, you probably have them added twice in the setup window. Delete any duplicate folders and you might need to re-index.
