MOV exported from Keynote - last slide disappears, audio continues playing

I have a series of three mov files that were created in & exported from Keynote. They are audio & slide shows that are to autoplay on a website. Two of the files function as expected once embedded in the website, one does not; the last slide drops out (displaying a white screen) while the audio continues for approximately 30 seconds until the mov file ends. To add confusion to the issue ALL the files play as expected using Safari (on Win & Mac). Using Firefox on Mac delivers the "broken" results. Using ANY browser on Windows yields the broken result.
Any suggestions from anyone as to what could be causing this? A link to the website I'm talking about is below. The problem file is on index2.html

Hi,
Since I am trying to do a number of things with Keynote, I read these discussions looking for opportunities and pitfalls.
I read your message, and saw your outcome as an issue. Since I've yet to add the soundtrack to my current project, I needed to know more about the outcome before I proceeded, in order to adjust accordingly.
I took my project, and added a song as the soundtrack. I played the slideshow, and the soundtrack played along, across the slides as it should. I then began to record the slideshow, but the soundtrack came playing through the speakers and was being picked up by the microphones, so I offed the speakers, donned my headphones, and re-began the recording. The soundtrack was playing (in the headphones), and I was narrating across many slides.
I played the recorded slideshow, and all was present - soundtrack and recorded narration.
I exported to Quicktime, sending the output to a new folder so that it could easily be found, along with anything else that might be generated. Upon completion, there was only one movie file in the folder. I opened and played it in Quicktime. It was perfect - slides looked good, narration was there, and the soundtrack was playing in the background.
This outcome appears to be your objective, so I'm not sure what I did differently than you, but from this experience, it works as should be expected.
Good luck.

  • Error 108 exporting from keynote to quicktime

    hi to all, i know this problem is already questioned, but after reading all the posts about it and after have tried all the possible solutions i cannot export my presentation from keynote 5 to quicknote. i still got the same error 108. the first time i've tried everything worked fine with a presentation of 400 slides full of hyperlink and images with the same transistion (  i still had no idea about the bug ). so i need to do one again bigger of 656 slides with hyperlink and images and the transition.so i tried again to export it... then it started troubles. the 108 error was shown to me for the first time. after that i try many times with small groups of slides from my presentation with hyper link and without them, with transitions and without them... and the result was that sometimes i cannot export one slide neither!!!!!!!!!!!!! one slide white, without anything...
    please do you have any idea about it? the other way to see my presentation on a pc means a lot of stupid work campared to a apparently simply export from keynote to quick time
    thank you in advance

    Yeah, me too. Bump. Can anybody explain this behavior?!?

  • Can't import quicktime movie made from Keynote into iMovie media browser

    I've created a file in Keynote, exported it to quicktime and would like to import into iMovie. iMovie keeps giving me this error message: Unknown error: the file could not be imported. Can someone help?

    Rarely am I able to solve my own problems, regardless of how much effort. But I did figure this one out, simply by trial and error. *To recap... I have created a sample slide show to use as a test run through Keynote (to get the best builds and transitions), to Quicktime Pro, into iMovie (to marry the features of iMovie with the Keynote slides) then back to Quicktime Pro as a final product.* It was a crash course with all 3 applications, so a huge learning curve for me.
    Quicktime Kirk helped me successfully with my first go round with this. But with so many nested compression windows and so many combinations of choices, I eventually forgot which settings had worked correctly to give me the quality resolution that I had achieved the first time.
    So I posted several messages asking for some clue where I was going wrong. Kirk did get back to me, but told me that I needed to create my project entirely without iMovie. Very frustrating because I knew I had done it before with iMovie.
    After literally hours of analyzing all the working files and duplicating the exact settings I used before, two scenarios were happening. One, the end product had terrible resolution quality (not even close to the first time around). *Or two, when trying to import the first Quicktime file created from Keynote into iMovie, there was an error message saying that the file could not be imported*.
    So, I eventually decided to try the following:
    *1. Create Keynote file*
    *2. Export to QT with "Full Quality/Large" setting checked, and "Include Transparency" checked.*
    *3. Open QT file to check quality. If acceptable, export this QT file as a QT file again using the highest quality settings - preferably ones that match the first export from Keynote to QT.*
    *4. Open iMovie file and import this new QT file.*
    *5. Do my thing with it.*
    *6. Export (Share) iMovie file as a final QT file with "Full Quality" setting checked in the first pop-up compression window.*
    This sequence proved to be successful with the same high quality resolution as the very first go round with it. I KNOW, though, that this wasn't the sequence I used the first time because I didn't do step 3.
    I am just happy that I got what I needed. Now I can create my full presentation without worrying about the outcome in the end.
    *Because I'm on a Mac, and the AIC default is used, my next feat is going to be identifying codec settings that are going to work both on Mac and PC (newer machines AND older machines).*
    *So, does anyone have a clue how to do this?*

  • How to play an HD movie exported from Final Cut Pro?

    How to play an HD movie exported from Final Cut Pro? on a mac???
    thanks

    How to play an HD movie exported from Final Cut Pro? on a mac?
    Most FCP users export them in a high-effeciency distribution/delivery compression format (e,g,, H.264/AAC) targeted for a particular application and/or device. For example, you could export using H.264/AAC at full display resolution for playback in the QT Player at an appropriate data rate if your platform and display can handle the output. TV would limid the video to 960x540 at 30/29.97 fps and normal AAC audio to 160 kbps at 48.0 KHz. Files exported for display an the Internet would be restricted by the bandwidth being targeted. Etc, etc, etc. Unless the file will only be played on your own platform, what you do not want to do is use an FCP only compression format which would limit viewers to those recipients have the same FCP codecs installed.

  • Can't export from keynote 09 to quicktime

    When I try to export from keynote 09 to quicktime 10 I get an error code there is not enough disk space or error 34.  I have taken off some graphic intensive files and have 30 GB of space left, but that does not seem to help.  Waht can I do?

    Until you receive a specific answer from an expert, I would suggest finding somewhere to put unnecessary (or less important) larger files.
    Macs need 10% free space to work correctly and 15% is much safer. Any less and you could run into all sorts of unpredictable problems. I think you will find that some of the free space is being used to process your exporting request, so that is multiplying the problem.

  • Exporting from Keynote - audio/slides no longer in sync

    Well after researching this, it seems there is no answer to my issue, but I thought I'd ask anyway.
    I have set up a Keynote presentation using Smart Builds. I have four slides. Each slide has approximately 40 pics and one song. The timing of the pics is set to correctly end at the same time the music stops and move on to the next slide, with its pics and music. Everything is timed right in Keynote.
    Now I want to burn to DVD. I export to QT. QT plays all the slides with pics and music. However, QT plays back the slides and pics at a faster rate and as a result the pics and music no longer line up.
    I suppose I could go back to Keynote and make it "not line up" in there so that it will in QT. But that would be: 1- ridiculous and 2- a huge waste of time (as this would be a "trial and error" approach.
    Any ideas or thoughts?
    Thanks,
    Kevin

    Anyone else experience this?
    Or know of a work-around?
    Or perhaps a different way to convert a Keynote to DVD?
    Thanks,

  • Combine movie and soundtrack exported from Keynote

    Hi!
    I have made a presentation in Keynote '09 and have added some audio as a soundtrack to it (playing throughout the presentation). When exporting to the Quicktime movie, I get two files, presentation.mov and presentation_soundtrack.mov (the option to export the soundtrack is of course selected in the export options window). When opening the presentation.mov in Quicktime player, the audio plays fine. However, I would like the movie and audio file to be combined in the same file. How to do this?
    Thanks,
    Mike

  • Slides from Keynote (not about the audio issue)

    Am I correct in assuming that Keynote slides exported with the "interactive" command should be interactive in iDVD?
    When I open the .mov file in QuickTime the slides play fine with the (start and stop) interactive control. But when I bring the same .mov into iDVD, the slides misbehave. The first two or three slides flip over very fast, then the show stops.
    What gives? Could this be because I'm using the trial version of Keynote?

    DVD media is not really 'interactive' and so Keynote presentations intended for iDVD are merely slide shows - you set the image duration and transition duration - and don't allow you to 'click' anything to advance to the next slide.
    Note that when you Export a presentation from Keynote, if you choose QuickTime you are given the Interactive choice, but if you choose iDVD there is no Interactive choice.
    On your computer, a Keynote presentation exported for Quicktime with Interactive selected lets you click to advance to the next slide. A Keynote presentation exported for iDVD opens in a traditional QT movie window and runs straight through the entire movie with no interaction.
    Sorry, but DVD playback doesn't work this way.

  • Audio drops when movie exported from iMovie into iDVD

    Hi there,
    I am a problem which I can't seem to fix.
    I have created a 7 minute long slideshow in imovie with MP3 files from iTtunes embedded. The video and audio are fine when exported as a MOV file (and within iMovie itself). But when exported into iDVD for burning, the audio drops out completely after 3 and a half minutes.
    I've tried updating iMovie, iDVD etc., deleting encoded assets as it says to do here: http://support.apple.com/kb/TA24043?viewlocale=en_US
    to no avail.
    Does anyone have any tips? My friend's wedding is on Saturday!

  • How do I produce the highest quality DVD from MOV exported from iMovie

    What is the best method in iDVD11 for burning to DVD, an imported HD 720p or HD 1080p MOV file exported from iMovie11?
    I have successfully exported a 5.5GB (66min) HD 720p MOV file from iMovie. I then used iDVD to import this MOV file and burn it to DVD. When I played the DVD the quality was nowhere near that of the imported HD 720p MOV file as played on QuickTime. The DVD also shows captions at the edge of the 16:9 TV screen instead of further inside as per the QuickTime screening of the HD 720p MOV file.
    How can I improve quality and maintain borders in iDVD for the DVD output?

    Hi
    How can I improve quality and maintain borders in iDVD for the DVD output?
    Quality.
    • Use iMovie up to HD6 or FinalCut - as iMovie'08 or 09 or 11 - just delivers every second line to iDVD = less resolution
    • There are no HD-DVD in real life - DVD is as standard SD-Video
    • If You must use iMovie'11 then do not use "Share to iDVD" BUT "Share to Media Browser" and as Large (Not HD or other resolution - as result will suffers)
    Border
    • May be turning on TV-Safe area in iDVD can help a bit. ?
    • If this is IMPORTANT - Then You have to re-do Your movie in FinalCut and here turn on TV-Safe area and shrink the movie area to within this. Now it will show all on an old CRT-TV - but with a black frame due to that no two CRT-TVs show exactly the same area and then TV-Safe must be less than this.
    My - Un-specific notes on DVD-Quality. If You are interested.
    DVD quality
    1. iDVD 08, 09 & 11 has three levels of qualities. (vers 7.0.1, 7,0.4 & 7.1.1)
       iDVD 6 has the two last ones
    • Professional Quality (movies + menus up to 120 min.) - BEST
    • Best Performances (movies + menus  less than 60 min.) - High quality on final DVD
    • High Quality (in iDVD08 or 09) / Best Quality (in iDVD6) (movies + menus up to 120 min.) - slightly lower quality than above
    About double on DL DVDs.
    2.Video from
    • FCE/P - Export out as full quality QuickTime.mov (not self-containing, no QT-conversion)
    • iMovie x-6 - Don't use ”Share/Export to iDVD” = destructive even to movie project and especially so
    when the movie includes photos. Instead just drop or import the iMovie movie project icon (with a Star on it) into iDVD theme window.
    • iMovie’08 not meant to go to iDVD. Go via Media Browser or rather use iMovie HD 6 from start.
    3. I use Roxio Toast™ to make an as slow burn as possibly eg x1 (in iDVD’08 or 09  this can also be set)
    This can also be done with Apple’s Disk Utilities application.
    4. There has to be about or more than 25Gb free space on internal (start-up) hard disk. iDVD can't
    use an external one as scratch disk (if it is not start-up disc).
    5. I use Verbatim ( also recommended by many - Taiyo Yuden DVDs - I can’t get hold of it to test )
    6. I use DVD-R (no +R or +/-RW)
    7. Keep NTSC to NTSC - or - PAL to PAL when going from iMovie to iDVD
    8. Don’t burn more than three DVD at a time - but let the laser cool off for a while before next batch.
    iDVD quality also depends on.
    • DVD is a standard in it self. It is Standard Definition Quality = Same as on old CRT-TV sets and can not
    deliver anything better that this.
    HD-DVD was a short-lived standard and it was only a few Toshiba DVD-players that could playback.
    These DVDs could be made in DVD-Studio Pro. But they don’t playback on any other standard DVD-layer.
    Blu-Ray / BD can be coded onto DVDs but limited in time to - about 20-30 minutes and then need
    _ Roxio Toast™ 10 Pro incl BD-component
    _ BD disks and burner if full length movies are to be stored
    _ BD-Player or PlayStation3 - to be able to playback
    The BD-encoded DVDs can be playbacked IF Mac also have Roxio DVD-player tool. Not on any standard Mac or DVD-player
    Full BD-disks needs a BD-player (in Mac) as they need blue-laser to be read. No red-laser can do this.
    • HOW much free space is there on Your internal (start-up) hard disk. Go for approx 25Gb.
    less than 5Gb and Your result will most probably not play.
    • How it was recorded - Tripod vs Handheld Camera. A stable picture will give a much higher quality
    • Audio is most often more critical than picture. Bad audio and with dropouts usually results in a non-viewed movie.
    • Use of Video-editor. iMovie’08 or 09 or 11 are not the tools for DVD-production. They discard every second line resulting in a close to VHS-tape quality.
    iMovie 1 to HD6 and FinalCut any version delivers same quality as Camera record in = 100% to iDVD
    • What kind of movie project You drop into it. MPEG4 seems to be a bad choice.
    other strange formats are .avi, .wmv, .flash etc. Convert to streamingDV first
    Also audio formats matters. I use only .aiff or from miniDV tape Camera 16-bit
    strange formats often problematic are .avi, .wmv, audio from iTunes, .mp3 etc
    Convert to .aiff first and use this in movie project
    • What kind of standard - NTSC movie and NTSC DVD or PAL to PAL - no mix.
    (If You need to change to do a NTSC DVD from PAL material let JES_Deinterlacer_3.2.2 do the conversion)
    (Dropping a PAL movie into a NTSC iDVD project
    (US) NTSC DVDs most often are playable in EU
    (EU) PAL DVDs most often needs to be converted to play in US
    UNLESS. They are playbacked by a Mac - then You need not to care
    • What kind of DVDs You are using. I use Verbatim DVD-R (this brand AND no +R or +/-RW)
    • How You encode and burn it. Two settings prior iDVD’08 or 09
    Pro Quality (only in iDVD 08 & 09)
    Best / High Quality (not always - most often not)
    Best / High Performances (most often my choice before Pro Quality)
    1. go to iDVD pref. menu and select tab far right and set burn speed to x1 (less errors = plays better) - only in iDVD 08 & 09
    (x4 by some and may be even better)
    2. Project info. Select Professional Encoding - only in iDVD 08 & 09.
    Region codes.
    iDVD - only burn Region = 0 - meaning - DVDs are playable everywhere
    DVD Studio pro can set Region codes.
    1 = US
    2 = EU

    What it turned out to be was the "quality" settings in iDVD. The total clip time was NOT over 2 hours or 4.7GB, yet iDVD created massive visual artifacts on the "professional quality" setting.
    I switched the settings to "high quality" which solved the problem. According iDVD help, "high quality" determines the best bit rate for the clips you have.
    I have NEVER seen iDVD do this before, especially when I was under the 2 hour and 4.7GB limits.
    For anyone else, there seem to be 2 places in iDVD to set quality settings, the first is under "preferences" and the second under "project info." They do NOT seem to be linked (i.e. if you change one, the other is NOT changed). take care, Mario
    TO GET IT TO WORK SLIGHTLY FASTER
    • Minimum of 25Gb free space on Start-Up hard disk
    • No other programs running in BackGround eg EnergySaver
    • Don’t let HD spinn down or be turned off (in EnergySave)
    • Move hard disks that are not to be used to Trash - To be disconnected/turned off
    • Goto Spotlight and set the rest of them under Integrity (not to be scanned)
    • Set screensaver to a folder without any photo - then make an active corner (up right for me) and set
    pointer to this - turns on screen saver - to show that it has nothing to show

  • Error exporting from keynote 3 to idvd 6

    Apologies for duplicating this in iDVD forum too:
    I know this has been posted before - but I can't seem to find an answer to fix my problem. I am trying to export a 30 slide presentation from Keynote 3 to iDVD 6 - the presentation is using slides which should be the optimum slide size for iDVD (according to help files) it has an sudio file with it, but when I go to burn it using iDVD i get the following error message:
    Error During Track Initialization
    There was an error during track initialization and iDVD
    cannot continue burning this DVD 'the disc has not been
    touched yet!). Please select Delete Encoded Assets'
    from the Advanced-menu and try burning this project again.
    I tried exporting the presentation to QT, which then worked and allowed me to burn the dvd, but the picture quality was completely rubbish.
    Am at a total loss what to do next as have spent last three days trying various things with no success... idvd now keeps crashing on me as well. I have an urgent deadline I need to meet by next week

    Hi BigLou:
    Be sure that you trash the idvd preferences prior to staring a new project. There may be leftover files from the trial version that are messing things up too. Look for all of those to be sure that you got rid of them.

  • HELP!EXPORTING FROM KEYNOTE TO QUICKTIME AND IT CREATES TWO DIFFERENT FILES

    I made a presentation in keynote, adding music from my itunes library and need to send it to a client (who owns a PC) ASAP.
    When I export my keynote file to QT, it creates two separate files on my computer. One is the project and one is the "soundtrack.mov"
    1. Why does it create two separate files?
    2. How can I send the ENTIRE presentation in one?
    3. How can I send it to a PC user?

  • Need quick solution! QT Movie export from FCP not right, client breathing down neck...

    I am working on a project in FCP 6.0.6. The footage is ProRes, 1920 X 1080, and runs about 50 minutes. Some graphics but minimal. Plays back great in timeline. I export a QuickTime Movie (reference movie) but when I play it in Compressor, the video suddenly jumps ahead about five seconds at the 36:00 mark. The audio continues as normal, but now, of course, audio and video are five seconds out of synch. Made multiple attempts to export from FCP, but I keep getting the same result.
    I have a feeling this may be a QuickTime compatability issue, but I can't compress for Web or DVD until I figure this out. Not finding anything in discussions at Apple or Web.
    Other pertinents:
    24-inch iMac, 2.4 GHZ
    4 GB RAM
    OS 10.7.5
    Assistance appreciated.

    Thanks for your comment, Michael, but I actually solved the issue last night. Shane had asked earlier about whether I had any H.264 clips, and I did not. But last night I remembered that when I first created the sequence, I had dragged in an H.264 clip before I converted them all to ProRes. So I realized that although my clips were all ProRes, the sequence itself might still be set for H.264. Checked settings, and sure enough, compression was on H.264. Changed it to ProRes, re-rendered, and I'm rolling again. Thanks, Shane, for planting the seed on that one.

  • Exporting from Keynote 08 using applescript or automator

    Hi
    Does anyone have a method for triggering an export from applescript of an open keynote presentation, I have an action that takes a sequence of images (exported slides) sorts and loads into an new presentation and I would like to then export as .ppt
    This allows the sad ppt user to see the slides perfectly formed (and stops them editing and stealing my ideas). However the last step of the export I have to do manually as I cant see any actions in automator or anything in the applescript dictionary.
    Any ideas
