.mov to mp4 conversion problems

Whenever I try to convert a .mov video file to mp4, the audio comes out normal but the video plays back at half speed so there's no sync. What setting needs to be addressed?

this probably because you are output the codec as xvid. when you are using the video converter to convert mov to mp4, you can choose the output format that with the codec of H.264, that is, MPEG-4 H.264.

  • MOV to WMV conversion problem

    I have quicktime pro and am trying to covert quicktime mov files to wmv files. The conversion happens, but when I play the wmv file I find that only part of the mov file was converted. Any ideas on how I can fix this?

    QT Pro is using the free demo codec (I assume you have the free Flip4Mac player component installed). To export full conversions you must purchase the QT to WMV export codec that comes in the $49 package. (The $29 codec only converts from WMV to QT.)

  • Mobile video only playing through headphones from 5D MKIII .MOV mp4 conversion

    I have not run into something like this before and hope that someone has...
    I have been capturing video with a 5D MKIII for a while now and create videos for work and upload to YouTube and mobile platforms. Someone recently told me that through the YouTube app, these videos (this one for example: Hail Recovery in V12 Corn - YouTube) will play fine on computer browsers and on a mobile device through headphones. When you try to play through the YouTube app without headphones, this video will play only garbled sound and very quietly.
    I have traced the problem to the 5D MKIII video capture, as capture with a canon XF105 doesn't have the issue (after AME conversion to mp4) on upload or playing directly from a mobile device or streaming from something like Dropbox.
    I'm not sure what to check now. I have tried almost every conceivable export choice and setting through AME CC2014 (and tried CC as well). I have tried this through my laptop and another machine on the same software set. I have tried exporting just the MP3 and listening via dropbox (same issue - sound garbled and quiet). I have tried W/O Quicktime installed on machine (thinking there might be an issue with the AME QT and the local QT. I have tried taking the .MOV file direct from the camera and creating a .AVI and MXF file and then used those in editing and export to MP4. None of these things have changed the outcome.
    The things I know are:
    - only happens from DSLR not other captures (like XF105)
    - only happens to sound trying to come through mobile device speaker (works with headphones) - I have checked the various 'mute' settings on all mobile devices i've used and this isn't the issue. I have tried Samsung, iPhone and iPad all with the same result
    - audio plays normally through computer browsers and through mobile device headphones
    If anyone has had this experience please let me know. This is very problematic as we have transitioned to using DSLR for most video now. It seems to be something with streaming but it also happens when I take the file (from the camera > mp4 or after editing in Premiere/AE > mp4) and play direct from the device. It must be something with the conversion from .MOV to mp4 but what?
    Thanks in advance for any insights.

  • Just upgraded to Lion and can no longer import any .mov files ("file not supported") to 3.1.3.  Also can no longer view any .mov or .mp4 files already in library.

    Have been using Aperture 3.1.3 with no problems.  Importing from a Nikon D80 (RAW & JPEG), Casio (.MOV) and Flip (.mp4).  Could import and view all videos without issue prior to Lion upgrade.  After Lion installation, can no longer import .mov files (get "file not supported" error) or even view any .mov or .mp4 files currently in library (even though thumbnail is present).  Can watch the .mov files directly on my camera using Quicktime in Finder but can't even drag & drop that file into Aperture.  Anybody else having similar problems?

    Still no resolution and Geniuses at store could not assist.  Unfortunately, it looks like not all the applications were ready to support the Lion operating system.  We could not import any .mov files, could no longer view any .mov files already in my Aperture library and could not email any .mov files.  Totally frustrated.  Use Aperture almost daily and can't lose the video functionality.  Was also running dog-slow.  Constantly looking at the spinning wheel.  Geniuses suggested that I wipe out hard drive and reinstall Snow Leopard.  Had full backup on external drive with Time Machine. 
    Not an easy process though...had to reinstall several times (at 5 hours each time) because I continued to have issues.  Finally figured out that I needed to delete every backup file from Time Machine on external drive from the date I installed Lion because some of the hidden files were still migrating back to Snow Leopard.
    I had to:
    1. Delete all time machine backup files from date/time of Lion installation forward
    2. Do "clean" installation of Snow Leopard (wiped hard drive using disk utility and booted with Snow Leopard disc)
    3. Chose option to reinstall from backup off Time Machine which eventually got me back to Snow Leopard desktop
    4. Deleted Aperture program and reinstalled (I had to install Aperture 2 and then install Aperture 3 upgrade.
    5. Reinstalled iLife apps
    5. Applied all Apple updates available (again this took a few hours because there were several updates from Snow Leopard's original release plus Aperture 3 and other application updates)
    Still doing some tweaking on some of my other apps but got everything back to where I originally was.  Now plan to wait on a few version updates from Lion before reinstalling.
    I am one of Apple's biggest fans, but was very disappointed in the fact that I lost functionality in one of their own pieces of software (which I use the most!)  by installing Lion.

  • Bad quality when play mov or mp4

    I want to play mov or mp4 by quicktime. In my laptop it play well but in my another computer the quality for video is very bad!
    Following is the features of that computer:
    Windows XP Pro SP2
    VIA C7 Processor 1500MHZ 512M RAM
    Graphics card: VIA/S3G UniChrome Pro IGP
    I upload the screen snapshot of this problem on my blog. Please look at the following url:
    http://apolloxiao.blogspot.com/2009/11/bad-quality-when-play-mov-by-quicktime.ht ml
    Thank you very much!

    My first thought was a video card driver because that will produce the streaks across the screen but usually more extreme.
    Then it could be hardware related, do you know the history of the computer, as to any recent changes?
    I don't really have a solution and don't want to string you along. But I swap around hardware, and me, I'd pull the video card out and make sure it's seated properly in the AGP or PCI slot on the motherboard. If it's not a on-board video card.
    You seem to be showing a dual monitor set-up? If so wouldn't the primary be on the right?

  • CC2014.1 Vers8.1 Caravan crashes every time i try to play or drop a clip on a timeline ( .mov and .mp4 )

    I've just moved to CC today, I have used CS5 for the last few years.
    After importing my footage and arranging in bins, every time i try t even play a lip or drop one onto a timeline the program crashes.
    It won't even play the clip in the small preview window, but it does give me a preview frame.
    Audio opens up fine and plays fine and drops to timeline fine, however it splits the clips into L+R, is there a way to stop that as it happens even on a mono track?
    I'm sure it's something silly with  setting i haven't done or something but can anyone help?
    Happens on .mov and .mp4 files.
    Even if i bring in an old project from CS5 it will allow me and the timelines look fine, but if i try to replace a clip from the project folder to the timeline it crashes!

  • Large MP4 videos problem on Nokia X6 16Gb

    I just bought an X6 to replace my N95. Previously I converted lots of my DVDs full movies to MP4 (using Handbrake) and they all ran great on my Nokia N95.
     Really useful when stuck in airports!
     So I was looking forward to the X6 with it's larger screen. I loaded some of my MP4s to it - but none play - the device simply refuses to play them. I checked the files aren't damaged - I can play them from the phone memory on my PC using the USB link.
    A typical full movie I've converted comes out at around 700Mb.
    What if anything am I doing wrong? I normally use the Handbrake presets which are suggested for the iPod.
    Is there an alternative video player I can install on my X6?

    Tried Smart Movie, and still will not play but reveals that some of the problems may be due to RealPlayer not supporting AVC1 codec (ie. Apple's version of MPEG for iPhone).
    So with iPhone dominance it looks like any podcasts specifically coded for the iPhone (and they are on the increase) means that the X6 at least misses out yet again.
    My trusty old 6303 plays fine however so why on earth did Nokia introduce a less compatible video player for the X6 which is a much higher spec phone?
    Nokia please help us loyal customers and sort out the compatibility issues. Please add the AVC1 codec in the next phone or Real player update. Please.
    Any moderator or Nokia employee looking at this can we have a comment?
    Many thanks

  • Converting between .mkv .mov and .mp4

    I have been given some h264 video files in .mkv format and am able to convert these to .mov by resaving them out to .mov from QuickTime Player 7.
    I can change the file extension in Finder to .mp4 and they seem to then more or less behave as .mp4 files.
    Are they actually .mp4, or QT doesn't care and just opens them anyway?
    What is the best method of handling these files for widest usage on multiple devices?
    I have read up as much as I can on the file formats but no-where does it say what OSX is actually doing when I change the extension.
    Am I right in wanting them to be .mp4 files?
    Peter

    I didn't state the audio format(s) because it has rarely been an issue, if it fails it fails at the first hurdle. The container.
    Non-AAC audio will likely fail to load/play if the MKV Extension is changed at the Finder Level. Using MPEG Streamclip to move the compressed data to a "real" MP4 file container will normally strip the audio from the final file. If you wish to retain the audio, use the QT 7 Pro "Movie to MPEG-4" option, use video passthrough, and transcode the audio to AAC.
    Most of the .mkv files have aac audio, but not all. Chapters are irrelevant, never having found any nor thought them useful.
    This is a user preference. I prefer to keep the original chapter markers for apps that use them rather than falling back on the defaulted markers added by some device players.
    I am playing the files on several Macs, 2 PCs, an iPhone, iPod Touch, iPad 2 and possibly future Android devices. There are even 2 TVs which seem to be stuck with only reading avi.
    Macs, iPhones, iPod Touch, and iPad will play H.264/AAC compressed data natively in MOV, MP4, or M4v file containers. PCs and Android playback will depend on the compatibility of the player app used on the device. Macs will play H.264 with any audio supported by your Mac codec component configuration in the MOV file container.
    My main target however is a PS3, which has turned out to be the most flexible media device in the house but does object to some files for indeterminant reasons. I will need to do comprehensive testing to find exactly what it is it doesn't like. Mostly it is good, once you update the system.
    Do not own a PS3 but believe it is supossed to be compatible iTunes and mobile device supported formats. Again, the file container of choice would depend on the content you wish to include in the file. If you want to include AC3 DD5.1 sourround soud audio, I would normally recommend the MV4 or MOV containers.
    The secondary target is iTunes so that I can get the files onto my iPod Touch and iPhone. I'm sort of used to that level of Apple devices (and I presume AppleTV) "Just not working" unless it suits Apple. So I restrict my viewing to mp4 files of my own creation or mkv files so over the top in size that recompression does little to degrade them.
    Again, the M4V file container with H.264/AAC with or without AC3 surround audio, alternative AAC audio, and/or chapters is usually the preferred norm. If you plan to use a "universal" file format, then the display dimensions, frame rate, profile, and level for encodes may depend on the specific devices involved. I.e., that is why I limit my files to 720p30 Main Profile Level 3.1 to High Profile Level 4.0 compression and rarely use even half (more commonly only about a quarter to a third) of the video data rates allowed with these settings.
    XBMC and other Media Server software seem, like VLC to be pretty tolerant, and whilst I haven't yet built myself a Media Server, it is on my longer term To-Do list.
    I use iTunes for in-house media server software to TV and mobile devices with Air Video as my primary server software externally via the internet to mobile devices when away from home. Both access the same Promise Pegasus R6 12 TB RAID storage device. (Have moved most of my content from an old Drobo Pro RAID and am in the process of upgrading the current 16 TB unit to 24 TBs as individual drives fail for the storage of raw video footage.)
    The h264 should pass straight through in a simple QT resave? Same if it has AAC audio?
    If the source MKV file is playback compatible with your system's current codec component configuration, then the QT 7 Pro or MPEG Streamclip "Save As..." option can copy the data in the MKV file directly to a new MOV file container without transcoding/recompressing any of the data. Unfortunately, the QT X player is a bit more iffy. Basically, Apple has combined the "Save, Export, and Save As..." options in to a single menu option. The result is that sometimes the app will recompress the data and at other times it may not—dependent on a numbe of variables.)
    If the MKV file contains H.264 video and AAC audio, then the MPEG Streamclip "Save As..." option allows you to select either MOV or MP4 as the target file container. If the MKV file contains H.264 video but the audio is not AAC but is still export-compatible with the QT 7 Pro app, then you can use the QT 7 Pro "Movie to MPEG-4" Export option to pass the H.264 video unchanged to a new MP4 file container while simultaneously coverting the audio to AAC. Since you still have not stated what non-AAC formats are included in some of your MKV files, I cannot tell at this point if this is a viable workflow for you.
    That covers most cases. I'm still not a 100% clear on tghe real differences between .mov and .mp4 containers and how much it really matters in the scheme of things. .mp4 seems to the go, does .mov cause a problem? If so how and how best to rectify that?
    The containers are different. They have different internal identifiers, features, capabilities, and sometimes limitations. CDs, DVDs, and BDs are all different types of optical media but each has different capacities, ratings, and features that determine how they can be used, what kind of media can be recoded on it, and what kind of a device must be used for playback. MP4 containers are very limited. Thay can only conatain MPEG-4 (MPEG-4/H.264) video and MPEG-4 (AAC) audio. M4V file containers are less limited and may typically contain H.264 video, AAC and/or AC3 audio, and chapter tracks. MOV file containers are generic and can hold up to 99 tracks of audio, video, image, text, 'tween, sprite, etc. data that is compatible with the system on which it was created. As to MOV files causing a problem—yes and no, depending on how you use it. Put "muxed" MPEG-2 data in an MOV file in an MOV file container and it will play normally in the QT 7 player (with the QT MPEG-2 component installed)—i.e., no problem. But try to play the same file in the QT X player and it will tell you that you are missing a codec component—a definite problem since you tried to play playable content in a container the media player did not expect to contain that particular form of compression. As to fixing aproblem. I would be better able to answer that if I knoew what specific problem you were referring to here.
    This is why I keep harping about knowing which player is to be used, what audio and video compression format is being used and what container is to be used. And we have not even gotten around to checking the H.264 settings. QT based players are standards conscious. Each Profile and level combination tells the player the max macroblock decoding rate, number of macroblocks allowed per frame, the maximum video data rate allowed, the highest useable resolution @ the highest frame rate, what features are supported by profile, etc. Unfortunately, some third-party venders sometimes hybridize these settings which can make the files unplayable in QT apps but they may still play on other players which do not check on or trap on the use of non-standard settings.
    BTW I did a quick hunt around on h265 and can't see what Apple is doing. Giving it a miss like it did with Bluray?
    Apple is not known for embracing such technology quickly—especially since they are still drafting and reviewing drafted standards. (I believe DivX released a draft version on the 15th of this month.) The current evolution of QT X will probably take another 5-7 years and Apple will have to design hardware capable of handling 4K and 8K  if anyone is actually going to put it to use on future Mac systems. The development of mobile devices have, for the most part, only been supporting 1080p resolutions for a relatively short period and jumping to 8K would represent something of a quantum leap at the consumer level.

  • MOV to MP4

    Hi, I have a lot of MP4 clips and I want to make one large MP4 file, I use Quicktime Pro to do this, what I do is drag and drop into Quicktime Pro all my MP4 files and then ''Save as'' to my desktop ''but'' the problem is that I get a .MOV file and I want .MP4 file. If I use the ''Export'' feature I have decrease audio and video quality and I should don't want this.
    Another problems is that the .MOV file plays audio and video fine in Quicktime but if I try to play the file in VLC player the audio is playable only in the first clip, on the followin clips I heard nothing. If I took this .MOV file into windows and try to play into VLC, Power DVD, Nero showtime, etc, its happens the same.
    Thanks in advance

    The .mov and .mp4 are merely file extensions and both formats use audio and video codecs nearly identically.
    One exception is "true" MPEG-4 that uses ISMA approved data rates.
    Last is the creation tool that made the .mp4 file. Microsoft versions (do not follow industry standards and use proprietary codecs) will not "mix" properly with QuickTIme .mp4 files.
    You do not want to combine these files and then export as this will degrade the quality.
    If this "large" file will be used on a PC or Mac then QuickTime .mov extension is just fine.

  • Video/DVD conversion problems and questions

    I have been using i-tunes for a couple years. The music libary and its functionality is superb however after getting an Iphone I have been trying to fully understand the concept of the required video/dvd conversion before itunes will accept them.
    I have used a couple different programs to convert content into Mpeg-4 itunes acceptable format. However when attempt to snyc video to my iphone several issues arise. First I have had content in my movie/video libary that for whatever reason will not transfer to the phone. Sometimes itunes will transfer a specific video and then on a later snycing, it will leave that same content out. Bizarre. I had 4 videos loaded into itunes and at one point I had all of them on the phone. During my last snyc session although they were checked, in the movie libary, they were not transferred.
    I have been using the itunes conversion option even after its been coverted into Mpeg-4, is this neccessary ? I have ripped a full length purchased dvd and loaded it onto Itunes, however it will not sync to the phone. Should I be able to load an entire movie if I have the available space or is there a capacity limit ?
    Can someone describe a process from start to finish, that will decode/convert video/dvd's into Itunes acceptable format that will also allow snycing to my I-phone without all of these constant issues ?
    Thanks !
    S ~

    Ok folks let's disengage the panic button. This is more of a means of sorting out a movie/video clip snync problem than trying to circumvent legalities and or discuss copyright violations none of which are present.
    i/tunes seems to make up it's own mind regarding which vid clips are transferred to the iphone even when all selections are formatted and are checked. No error message, no indicators, some files move while others do not.
    Any ideas ?

  • I needto convert the Quicktime movies to MP4

    I don't  understand the differences but my blue  ray player won't play the Quicktime movies but it will play mp4 I need to know how to convert them.  Thanks

    I don't  understand the differences but my blue  ray player won't play the Quicktime movies but it will play mp4 I need to know how to convert them.
    A QuickTime file is an MOV file container with any form of compatible data in it. This data can be anything from text or still images to Windows Media Video or MP3 music. On the other hand, MP4 is a file container specifically associated with MPEG-4 or H.264 compressed video and/or AAC compressed audio. If the source MOV file already contains MPEG-4/H.264/AAC data, then simply changing the file extension from MOV to MP4 may solve your problem and, if not, then you may simply need to copy the MPEG-4/H.264/AAC data from the MOV file container to an MP4 file container. In cases, where the source file does not already contain MPEG-4, H.264, and/or AAC compressed data, you would have to transcode/convert the original data to MPEG-4, H.264, and/or AAC compressed data and wrap it in the target MP4 file container. The QT 7 Pro player, MPEG Streamclip, VLC, HandBreak, and similar free or commercial utilities are commonly used to create MP4 files under Mac OS X v10.6 (Snow Leopard). Normally it is best to avoid transcoding data if possible since transcoding may degrade quality.

  • How can I convert a mov to MP4?

    How can I convert a mov to MP4?

    To convert mov to mp4, try iOrgSoft Video Converter which is able to do video conversion among different video file formats. It's not freeware but worth trying.

  • Does your ipod act wierd with movie-length mp4s?

    Hi all,
    I've used Avex to convert some of my dvd movies to mp4s. The convertion works great, but when I play them on my iPod (80G Video), the ipod freezes at the end of the movie or if I try to pause it. I then have to reset the ipod.
    It works fine when I convert shorter TV episodes to MP4.
    It this a known issue, or you you think the avex conversion is wierd.
    80Gig Video   Windows XP  

    Yes, this is exactly the thing to do in your situation since you've got an iPod that's video freezes; reset the iPod.
    Resetting the iPod is simply like restarting a computer, which does not loose it's data if everything goes normal (which it does, unless a really weird error happens).
    So is the iPod. Resetting is probably the first troubleshooting step that Apple recommends with any iPod issues, and is simply is used to restart and refresh the iPod. It often cures minor little freeze ups or little glitches in the iPod's behavior.
    By the way, the data on your iPod will be safe and unafffected by resetting it.
