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?

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.)

  • Flip video-FCE Editing and .mov to WMV conversion

    We have bought some new Flip video camcorders- i need to edit the footage and then convert them to WMV so that they can be embedded into a powerpoint presentation.
    Here's the problem:
    -The flip videos are MP4 files
    - I have been importing these files into FCE, making the appropriate edits & then exporting the final sequence as a .mov file.
    - At this stage i have a .mov that i wish to convert into WMV so that it can be embedded into the presentation. This is where the problem occurs- The video converter goes very strange, fuzzy and as though its a tv is zero reception (signal).
    I have been reading up and now realise that FCE does not recognise MP4 files, so i tried:
    - Converting the raw flip video footage from MP4 to .mov
    -Bringing this .mov file into FCE
    -Exporting the final sequence as an .mov file & then trying to convert to WMV
    This is where another problem occurs:
    The convertor is only recognising the audio and not the video. I have the audio from the sequence but not the video....
    I have tried varies convertors so i know it is not my regestered convertor at fault (wondershare video)
    DOES ANYONE KNOW WHAT THE BLEEEEEP IS GOING ON & WHAT A SOLUTION MIGHT BE?
    MANY THANKS!!!!!

    Hi David,
    Thanks for your response. I have been trying this technique but it doesn't seem to work either. I immediately converted the footage from MP4 to .mov. I then imported the .mov file into final cut express for editing. Once the sequence was ready i exported as a .mov file and then used 'wondershare video convertor' to convert from .mov to WMV. This doesn't seem to solve the problem. In this case i can get the audio but not the visual....
    I have taken your advice and downloaded 'flip4mac'. I have just currently got the free trial as i want to know if it works before paying. It seems to open up in quicktime player but wont allow me to export file and convert to wmv....
    What exactly is flip4mac good for and how do you use it? I know it runs hand in hand with quicktime, so in this respect isn't your standard convertor?
    Do you have any suggestions? Surely it shouldn't be hard?
    Many thanks,
    Ed

  • Final cut pro- .mov to wmv conversion?

    Hello, I'm trying to convert a 10 minute .mov file (h264) into a .wmv and everytime I try, it only exports 20 seconds worth even though it finishes through until the end. Why is it doing this? Can I make it go all the way through? I'd like to find an easy way to just convert .mov to wmv using Quicktime pro or Final Cut Pro and not have to go through additional software (especially software that costs money). Any help will be appreciated-- thank you

    Yes. Windows Media Encoder is your friend.
    I wrote up a blog post with how I did it (http://tinyurl.com/28xfbdy[) but in short, I created an archive quality MPEG-2 program stream (35 Mbps). That file can then be opened by Windows Media Encoder and you can encode it however you want.
    The other really easy option if you bought before they went out of business - VisualHub will convert directly from a QuickTime file to Windows Media.

  • .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.

  • MacBook Pro won't play .mov or .wmv files.

    Since "upgrading" to Lion my MacBook Pro won't play .mov or .wmv files, all I get is a black screen and the audio.  It's so frustrating!!    
    I've read many other posts all along the same lines and wherever possible I've tried to follow the advice which has been given but nothing works.    I've updated all the drivers I can and I've even reinstalled Lion, nothing makes a difference.   
    I'm not really looking for any more advice, all I want is someone from Apple to read these posts, realise there is problem and get working on a fix or update.   
    I had no problems when running Snow Leopard and it would seem, looking at everyone else's problems, that the common issue is Lion.   Seriously, this is one area where Lion is a backwards step.   It should just work (like most things from Apple), but it doesn't.
    Personally I believe there is a problem with Lion but from what I've found out from speaking to friends with other Apple kit, this might be a random issue only affecting some people as some have said they've had no problems while others have had the same issues as me.    One guy reinstalled Lion and it resolved the issue for him, I've not been as lucky.  
    As I say, I'm not really looking for more advice, simply some sort of update from Apple to fix it.   PLEASE!!!

    This is a peer-to-peer user forum. Perhaps you would see more action if you and others would file a formal "Bug" report with Apple QuickTime technical people rather than repeatedly reporting a possible problematic problem which may or may not affect others on a random basis. QUICKTIME PRODUCT FEEDBACK
    Since you aren't seeking further advice here is what I have observed. Not being a regular WMV file user, I had to create my own sample file to test—a WMV 9 file containing WMV3 compressed video and WMA2 compressed audio. Since I normally use QT 7 as my primary media player, I also stored the WMV data in its partially decompressed form in an MOV file container to avoid pre-playback delays in "classic" player routines and also provide a secondary playback test of MOV wrapped content. These files play as follows using the Flip4Mac component/player support and uncoded URL uploads:
    QT 7.6.6 "Open File" - both files play correctly.
    QT 7.6.6 "Open URL" - both files play correctly.
    QT X.1 "Open File" - WMV file plays correctly. MOV file plays video without audio.
    QT X.1 "Open Location" - WMV file appears to open but plays with "black" screen and no audio. MOV file plays video without audio.
    VLC "Open File" - WMV plays correctly. MOV file doesn't open,
    VLC "Open URL" - WMV file plays correctly. MOV file appears to open but nothing plays.
    MPEG Streamclip "Open File" - both files play correctly.
    MPEG Streamclip "Open URL" - both files play correctly.
    GarageBand - WMV file will not import but MOV file does.
    iTunes - WMV file will not import. MOV file container is accepted but as soon as iTuness sees the compression formats, it aborts import.
    Safari - WMV file URL auto-downloads and playes in the QT X.1 Player. The MOV file URL opens and plays in Safari.
    As you can see from these results the files do play but are subject to many different constrints based on old/new video technology support, independent QT subsets and/or container trapping constraints. In short, individual user results will depend on presence/absence of component support, actual compression formats, file container, application being used, and how the application is being used. Unfortunately, most users here can't or won't provide the prerequisite information or a sample file for independent examination. This makes it next to impossible to give advice in these matters or categorize the specific nature of the problem.

  • Slideshow in Photoshop Elements 9 keeps crashing when I try to output it to movie file (wmv)

    Made a slideshow using Photoshop Elements 9 that keeps crashing when I try to output it to movie file (wmv).
    This message appear: Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Error
    This is totally new to me as I have made a few slidshows before and saved them into wmv-files without any problem.I tried to open the file and renew it "save as" and did the whole procedure over again but it still crasches. There is no video in the slideshow and all pics are .jpg and to summarize it - 5 days of work is nearly gone if this doesent convert into a wmv-file..... Pls advise any suggestion what to try here.
    Best regards
    Eric
    /Sweden

    Your crash has nothing to do with the junk filter. It looks more like a corrupt preferences file. If you're curious, you may check the validity of that file issuing the following command in Terminal:
    plutil ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plistWhat does it say? Now, try this:
    1. Quit Mail.
    2. Make a backup copy of the HOME/Library/Mail folder, just in case something goes wrong. You can do this in the Finder by dragging the folder to the Desktop while holding the Option (Alt) key down, for example. This is where all your mail is stored.
    3. In the Finder, go to HOME/Library/Preferences/. Locate the file com.apple.mail.plist and move it to the Desktop (to be deleted if this fixes the problem).
    You'll have to set up your accounts from scratch all over again. If given the option to import existing mailboxes or something like that, don't. Just enter the account information and Mail will automagically rediscover the data in HOME/Library/Mail/ when done.
    You'll also have to re-configure most of your settings in Mail > Preferences. The first thing you should do is go to Preferences > Viewing and disable "Display remote images in HTML messages" if it's enabled.

  • 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 ?

  • How to debug file content conversion problems?

    Hi,
    I'm trying to debug a file content conversion problem.  I'm mapping a few nodes in an IDOC to a file of fixed length fields.  I'm using the "<Node A>.fieldFixedLengths", "<Node B>.fieldFixedLengths", "<Node C>.fieldFixedLengths", etc. parameters to specify the fixed length records.
    However, a certain node (for e.g. Node B) is causing a problem and if it is present in the IDOC, the output file does not get created.  Upon checking the XI monitor, I notice that the file gets mapped correctly and thus the problem lies when the file adapter does the file content conversion.  How do I debug this because there is no descriptive error in the XI log?  If this node is not present, the file gets generated fine.
    Thanks,
    Basant Gupta

    Hi,
    If your SXMB_MONI shows, success status, then go to RWB->Message Monitoring->Message display tool and then check Audit log for the analysis,
    So it wil help you debug the situation.
    If there is no error, then check RWB->Component Monitoring->Adapter Monitoring for you file communciation channel..

  • Convert flash QT.mov to WMV or MPG

    Please help!
    Does anyone know the simplest way to convert a flash
    animation Quicktime movie to WMV or MPG?
    This is a rush, I'm working under deadline. Originally, I was
    told QT.mov was acceptable format.
    Now, I'm being told that their server can only handle WMV or
    MPG. When they tried to convert the
    QT file it was converted without the audio track. I've tried
    to download serveral of the free shareware converters -- no luck.
    (either corrupted or some glitch occurs or company logo is
    embedded in converted file).
    I know AE (AfterEffects) to some degree and I believe I can
    export to WMV of MPG there. But this is a huge file,
    trying to download it now at a cybercafe with two T1 lines --
    still it's "watching paint dry".
    Please anybody, any suggestions, please.
    Thank you.

    I think the simpliest way converting flash into video - use
    Flash To Video
    Encoder.
    recommendation for
    Adobe Premiere
    is a good one too

    It is OK to post a globalization-related question in this forum in addition to the forum pertaining to the main technology. Not all experts follow all possible forums on OTN. Of course, you should cross-link the posts to let people merge the answers.
    Regarding the problem itself, make sure that SQL*Plus has the right NLS_LANG setting in the environment. On Windows, in the Command Prompt:
    C:\> set NLS_LANG=.WE8PC850
    C:\> sqlplus ...On Unix:
    $ setenv NLS_LANG .WE8ISO8859P1   (or NLS_LANG=.WE8ISO8859P1; export NLS_LANG)

  • Codepage conversion problem

    Hello,
      In a DB to DB scenario, I am getting this error "Error: Unexpected error converting database resultset to XML, codepage conversion problem?" on the side of the sender adapter. I am not able to see any messages or trace in IE-Monitoring. Is there any log wherein I can find out the problem as to where it is occuring?
    Regards,
    Sanjay

    Hi Sanjay,
    The JDBC sender adapter returns the rows selected from the database in the follwoing format.
    <resultset>
    <row>
    <column-name1>column-value</ column-name1>
    <column-name2>column-value</ column-name2>
    <column-name3>column-value</ column-name3>
    </row>
    <row>
    <column-name1>column-value</ column-name1>
    <column-name2>column-value</ column-name2>
    <column-name3>column-value</ column-name3>
    </row>
    </resultset>
    This error occurs , when the source datatype you have created for the JDBC adapter does not match with this format. I would suggest that you check the source format along with the occurence of your field.
