Make 2 versions of same movie: HD for one, 08 for other?

I am making movies from old video tapes. I would like to burn these movies to a DVD and enjoy them on my TV AND I would like to upload a copy to YouTube or another web site.
The problem is I have heard (over and over again) that iMovie 08 will significantly degrade the quality of my movie when I send it to iDVD. Since these movies are from tapes, I can't afford to lose any of the quality that is there. But 08 has great options for exporting the movie for YouTube and other sites (30 fps, 960x540).
If I make my movie in iMovie HD, it will be fine if I send it to iDVD, but the other exporting options give a movie that is only10 to 12 fps and 320x240 at the most.
Can I somehow create both an internet version and an iDVD version of my movie using only iMovie HD or iMovie 08? Or do I have to keep creating the movie twice, once in each program.
Thanks for the help.

Create a new smart playlist, call it Lossless Library, and set up a single condition : Kind is Lossless (or whatever the abbreviation is, I don't use it myself as 256 AAC is as good as CD to my ears).
You could then create another one with the mirror of it : Kind is not Lossless.
Then you only need to browse whichever of those two you need and everything from your Main Library will be in there, assuming you keep dual versions of everything.
Something similar may work for the video question, but as I don't use iTunes for video, that's a pure guess.

    Can I have two versions of firefox? i.e. one for work and one for home use. I use Windows xp
    I would like to start fresh with a new firefox for my work only so I can keep my work related bookmarks etc separate from my at home browsing.

    Yes - are you wanting to run 2 profiles on the same machine? See https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Managing-profiles on how to create a new profile. You then just choose which profile you want to use each time you open Firefox.

  • What version of Itunes is the best one for m4a encoding?

    What version of Itunes is the best one for m4a encoding?

    In that all versions of iTunes support ripping or converting to .m4a (both AAC and Apple Lossless) and in that the latest version is likely to included bug fixes and optimisations, I would say the answer is always going to be the latest version.
    An area where there maybe a need to consider using an older version is that older versions of Windows are no longer supported by the latest versions of iTunes. For example Windows 2000 is no longer supported but Windows XP and later still are.

  • Is it possible to download and upload a perticular IDOC for one to other sy

    Hello,
    Is it possible to download and upload a perticular IDOC for one to other system. I was just wondering if this is possible. Please revert if any body has tried this.
    Thanks.

    Yes, it is possible and the main purpose of IDocs is actually the information exchange between the systems. You might want to read some theory on this first and user Search if you have questions about particular IDoc types:

  • Three Versions of a movie? Which one do I buy?

    This week, the iTunes store features the 1995 Al Pacino / Robert DeNiro movie Heat on sale for $9.99.  I love this movie and so I was looking forward to buying it.  But I fell into an iTunes hole and after clicking on a number of different titles, found myself at another listing for Heat, priced at $14.99.  Confused, I searched the iTunes store for "Heat", and was surprised to see three separate listings, all at different prices, for the same movie:
    Now, unlike The Heat, which has rated and unrated versions available, Heat appears to have nothing between the three editions to differentiate them.  None of them contain iTunes Extras, none of them have different runtimes or ratings.  The only things that appear to be different are price and bitrate:  $14.99 / 5.81GB ; $17.99 / 5.75 GB; $9.99 / 6.16 GB.
    Likewise, another title on sale this week is Seven. It has two identical listings. One at $9.99, one at $14.99.  The $14.99 has the higher apparent bitrate; 4.79 GB vs. 4.37 GB.
    So my questions is, how do you know for sure you are getting the best release available for any given movie in the iTunes store?

    Caleb,
    CC2014 is a new version, which in some ways are closer to the CS versions because some features have been reintroduced.
    If you are happy with CC2014 you may uninstall the others.

  • Two versions of same movie - Single icon?

    After creating an iPod version of a movie, can I get iTunes to display only one version? ie AppleTV and iPod version, but single title displays (different resolution)

    What you're trying to do is Duplicate the first project, then make changes. Depending on which version of iMovie you have it might be this easy. Go to the Project Library. Hold down the Control Key and click on the project. In the pop-up menu there's an option titled: Duplicate. That will give you the second movie you need to alter. Duplicate once more to get number three ready to go.

  • 2 versions of same movie

    Right now when I rip a DVD I create two versions: AppleTV and iPhone. For example, if I rip Batman Begins, then I create Batman Begins.m4v and Batman Begins (iPhone).m4v. My questions is there a way to display only one item in iTunes and on my AppleTV? I hate having to see both the AppleTV and iPhone version listed. It makes browsing my library twice as long.

    Create a new smart playlist, call it Lossless Library, and set up a single condition : Kind is Lossless (or whatever the abbreviation is, I don't use it myself as 256 AAC is as good as CD to my ears).
    You could then create another one with the mirror of it : Kind is not Lossless.

  • Make a Reference Quicktime Movie using QuickTime API for windows?

    Hi all,
    Does anyone know how to generate or modify a QuickTime Reference file?
    I try to generate a QuickTime reference file (.mov) that will point to external video clip Avid OpAtom such as
    \Avid MediaFIles\MXF\V1.mxf,
    \Avid MediaFIles\MXF\A1.mxf,
    \Avid MediaFIles\MXF\A2.mxf.
    I can use Avid News Cutter (NLE) to export a Quicktime reference mov file that point to external OpAtom mxf files.
    My questions are:
    1. How can I use QuickTime API to generate the same QT reference?
    2. Can we use QuickTime API to parse or modify the Avid Generated QT reference file?
    If I want to change the referenced external video source location info can we use QT API to do that?
    3. I have tried John Cromie's "QuickTime for .Net and Com Developers" using AxQTControl1.URL to parse a QT reference file, however, I can't find out where the external source clip location info in this object!!
    4. I have tried Legacywindowsqttools Dunpster but still can't parse the location info.
    Does anyone know where the external source clip location info hide in QT API object?

    Insert a Shape and re-size & position it to cover the movie. In the Inspector > Graphic tab, set the Opacity of the Shape to 0%. Then hyperlink that transparent Shape.

  • Make Flash CS5.5 Movie play through one time

    I have created a movie in Flash Professional CS5.5 which has two scenes in it, and I want iot to only play through a single time and then stop....
    I opened it originally as a Flash Project, completed the first scene which was an opening screne with a company logo on it, and then a second scene which is product placement images for the department. I have tried creating a new layer, and adding an action to the last keyframe by opening the action tab, and typing in stop();
    Unfortunately, this does not seem to do anything really, and I am confused here. If someone could PLEASE explain to me how to insert a break at the end of scene two, I will be eternally indebted!!
    Oh yeah, and thanks in advance....

    None that I know of.  I would recommend against using scenes, but if you have no other code then that recommendation is less meaningful.  Scenes are better off when used for strict animation, designs that have no code involved.
    The stop() will work, you have to figure out what is keeping it from working.  Compiler errors are only one way of getting the stop to not work.  As I said, if you have some other code in the file it might be defeating the purpose of that stop()
    (ps - your description of what you did is not exactly what I said to do)

  • PDF in readonly mode for one user, others can add info to it

    I have a user who is not able to add a digital signature to a PDF form.  She is using the same version that the file was created with and I and another person can add a digital signature.  Why is her version shown that it is in readonly mode?

    Hi,
    It could just be that the file's Read Only attribute is turned on. Have them right mouse click on the file and select Properties from the pop-up menu. On the Properties dialog make sure the "Read Only" checkbox is deselected.
