Mp4 conversion for use in screenflow

Good Afternoon, Im hoping you can help.
Im an amateur, so i'll tell you off the bat that im not experienced in compressor. I am however a very quick learner but to save time i thought i'd ask you guys.
I have Mp4 video that i want compressor to adjust so that its editable in Screenflow for my youtube channel. I have recently upgraded to HD capture but im unsire on the process or export settings to get HD editable footage with sound.
If theres any info that i can give you guys to help out then please ask and i will supply.

Here's what I'd suggest.
Open Compressor and drag your movie into the source well.In the Settings pane, where all the presets are listed, hit the plus button and choose Quick Time movie. Drag that into the Batch Window where your movie is. Enter a destination – where you'd like the output file saved,
Open the Inspector. Click on the Encoder tab. Open Video Settings, From the dropdown menu for Compression Type, choose H.264. Leave Restrict Data Rate at Automatic and click OK. While still in the Encoder, check that Audio is Enabled.
Open  the Geometry tab. For Frame Size, set to 100% of Source, Click Save As and give it a name. This is a custom preset that (hopefully) you'll use in future encodes.
Open the Preview window, Select a short selection by setting in and out points.
In the Batch window, hit submit. Another window will open; hit submit again.
When the  processing is complete, open in QT Player to check for quality (and audio). If everything seems OK, bring that into Screenflow. Hopefully, it will work with Screenflow.

  • Video File Conversions for use in IMOVIE

    I have a Sony DCR-DVD100 Camcorder and a Powerbook G4. Video files on the camera cannot be imported into IMOVIE for use and editing. The computer can play the files via a USB connection. The video files include VIDEO_TS.BUP VIDEO_TS.IFO and VIDEO_TS.VOB
    Can anybody offer advice or recommendations? Apparently there are downloads which will convert the files for use in IMOVIE but I need some guidance. Thanks.

  • H264 file conversion for use in DVDit on PC for Blu-Ray Disc Burn

    We're trying to create our first Blu-Ray HD disc project and have met with some success. The problem is the frame update rate on the Blu-Ray during playback. It's not real time. Here's the workflow that we created since FCP doesn't support Blu-Ray yet. We're taking the original animation source footage created in AVI with the following specs: progressive, 1280x720. 59.94, 158 mb/s and importing into FCP. Then, after editing we export an H264 out of Compressor with these specs: progressive, 1280x720. 59.94, 16 mb/s. We then take that H264 file to DVDit on the PC and author the Blu-Ray disc. The resolution of the video is fantastic but the frame rate lags at certain areas. This is unacceptable to the client so we're trying to fix the problem. Any Ideas or better workflow? Thanks.

    Hi Video Dude
    here's a good article I posted on the DVDSP forum as well. It tells a bunch about workflow and the problems the author faced. I hope you know that this is kind of a new technology - so much so that I would frankly say it's in the beta stanges at this point even though you can buy players and authoring software - problems might come up that you have no control at this point. Just so you & your client relize this. Check for plyer updates as well.
    Good Luck

  • If AME 2014 no longer allows .flv export, how am I supposed to import videos to the stage for use in Flash CC?

    Flash CC will notimport .mp4 videos for use on the stage, only .flv. This seems like an ENORMOUS oversight, so maybe I am missing something. But if I'm not missing anything, WHEN THE **** WILL ADOBE UPDATE FLASH TO MATCH THE STUPID FORCED WORKFLOW UPDATE THEY'VE DONE WITH AME AND AFTER EFFECTS? I HAVE TO USE SOME RANDOM 3RD PARTY WEBSITE TO CONVERT .MOV OR .MP4 FILES TO .FLV FOR USE IN FLASH!?!?!?!?!?!!?!?!? ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!?!?!?!?!?!!?!?

    This forum is for Flash Media Server Developers so most likely you migth get much traction here. I would recommend you to post your query on Flash Builder forum: http://forums.adobe.com/community/flash_builder/using_flash_builder

  • Batch conversion of MOV files for use in PPro Windows

    I have PPro CS3 on Windows XP (the OS is more relevent to the question than the software version, I think).  I have been buying some inexpensive stock footage, and the HD/SD libraries they have been offering lately come as MOV files with apple-flavored codecs, if you know what I mean.  Fortunately PPro has been able to open everything I have tried so far, but of course they have to be rendered.  And results in player software (for previewing clips) varies by frame size and whether the clip has audio (most don't, but a few do), and not being able to see thumbnails in Windows hampers my speed in selecting clips, especially since the files came named "1.mov", "2.mov", etc. (yeah, I'll eventually rename them to something useful).  So I would like to just convert them all to AVIs with the Microsoft DV codec, so that they will play natively in PPro without rendering.  I know I could use PPro to do the conversion (put them all on a timeline and do Export Movie one at a time), but I was hoping for a batch solution.  I've downloaded and installed a number of free converter programs, but nothing seems to be able to output in the Microsoft DV codec.
    Some of the files are HD (1920x1080), some are SD 16:9 that were reduced from those HD clips, and some are original SD 4:3.  The codec for the HD ones is reported by GSpot to be "Apple Photo JPEG", and the SD ones use something simply called "dvc" or "DV".  Noting the similarity of the name "DV", I did try just telling the conversion program to leave the video stream alone and just change the wrapper from MOV to AVI.  WMP and Windows' thumbnail generator seem to understand the resulting file, but PPro shows colored noise - so much for that idea.
    Any suggestions are welcome!

    For my conversions, I use DigitalMedia Converter 2.7, and it does batch conversion very well. Now for the caveat (you knew one was coming, right?), Deskshare has introduced "new and improved" software, but I have not tried it yet. I do not know how it will handle your footage, so the trial might be in order.
    Good luck,

    The normal situation would be wanting to convert .m4a (AAC or Apple Lossless) to .mp3 as these are both music file formats. The extension .mp4 is normally for a video file and iTunes itself will only convert music files from one format to another.
    For details on how to convert between music formats see http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1550
    If you want to convert the audio track of an .mp4 video to a .mp3 file then you are going to need to use a different utility.

  • Saving Settings for use with Export using Quicktime Conversion

    Dear All,
    Is it possible to save a set of settings for use with the Export using Quicktime Conversion feature? The reason I ask is that we have to export a quicktime of every tv commercial we make (using the same settings) and it would be great if "one click" could deliver the export settings we need.
    All the best, Sean

    Well, you can create a droplet from Compressor that would do what you'd like...
    Open compressor and in the Help menu, Select the user manual. Navigate to page 315.

  • Saving video as mp4 for use on Web & tablets (including iPad)

    I am looking for clarity in saving my instructional videos to proper the format to be viewed on the web and tablets (including iPads). I save my original recordings on the web as mp4s and link them on the web for viewing.
    On Premiere the only choices for the web is Flash which is not supported on iPads.
    Suggestions?

    What version of Premiere Elements and on what computer operating system is it running.
    Please look at the .mp4 export opportunities in your version....if you have Adobe Flash Video choice, then you do not
    have Premiere Elements 13/13.1 (Adobe Flash Video dropped from that version).
    Assuming version 11 or 12...please see
    Publish+Share
    Computer
    AVCHD
    and Presets for MP4
    or for other .mp4 exports, please see
    Publish+Share
    Mobile Phones and Player
    Apple iPod, iPad, and iPhone
    For customizing the export settings, see Advanced Button/Video Tab, Audio Tab, and, if applicable, Multiplexer Tab for your choice in the
    Presets field.
    Please review and consider, supply for more information so that we can customize a response.
    Thank you.

  • Import from DVD for use on Web

    Hi
    aplogoies if this is "an idiot question" but this is my first foray into premiere.
    A clinet for whom I'm doing a web site has given me a DVD with demos of his products in the vob format. Ie the dvd has two folders on it one audio one video I think!.
    I downloaded avs video convertor and converted the vob files to AVI and mp4
    If I import the mp4 into premiere they are imported ok, if I import the avi I get the following error
    unsupported format oor file.
    I have trawled the forum and opened the file in Gsot with the following results
    I suppose I have two questions, the end video will be going on a youtube channel so am I better to just use the mp4 conversion or should I convert to AVI. If the latter why do I get this error
    thanks
    Ian

    Hi
    thanks for the fast and accurate response. Haven't tried exporting yet as I have to add a branding jpeg at the start and end of each of the 24 films.
    Horses for courses created the jpeg in illustrator in minutes.
    Hey ho back to the learning curve

  • Quicktime Conversion for PS3

    I have the HV-20 and a PS3, I'm trying to put a test clip on a USB drive then watch in HD through my PS3. Sony says the PS3 can only use MPEG-4 format, so I used FCE to do a quicktime conversion and export the clip into the correct format. It comes up under MP4 (ISMA) but I could only get the custom field under image size to come up using just MP4. I messed up and used the 1920x1080, when the HV-20 only does 1440x1080, but still when I played it on the PS3 not only did it look horrible it was also in 4:3 instead of 16:9 ratio. Why is this? Can you tell me which settings will give the correct look on playback with the PS3?

    OK, I just tried a size "passthru" export encoding and got a "unsupported data" error on the PS3 with 2.1 firmware! I believe these files had previously played back in 4:3 format (literally 1440X1080 with no horizontal expansion) using previous firmware.
    The coding times are so long it is difficult to run through all of the possible combinations in a reaonable amount of time.
    The file does play back in 4:3 in QT player. Evidently, the 2.1 firmware either disabled 1440X1080 video or added a check to refuse playback with no anamorphic expansion flag set.
    In a way it kinda makes sense that QT would play it because it has to support odd sizes such as that, whereas 1440X1080 non-anamorphic would not be a standard HD format.
    I opened the file in QT-PRO and scaled the horizontal width as follows:
    window-->show movie properties-->select video track-->visual settings-->uncheck "preserve aspect ratio" -->revise horizontal "scaled size" to 1920 -->file-export mp4-->options-video format "passthrough"-->save
    The file now plays in 16:9 in QT, but still shows as "unsupported data" on the PS3.
    from searching the web, I get the impression that the mp4 specification for horizontal scaling has somehow diverged from the original QT method. From there it seems to digress to people resorting to low level HEX editors to sort things out (good grief!).
    reference---http://forum.doom9.org/showpost.php?p=988006&postcount=2838
    Actually, I am not sure why a scaling flag would even be required for true HD since there is no legitimate 1440X1080 4:3 aspect ratio format in the AVCHD spec
