Mp4 movies with h264 codec on iPhone

I've been converting DVDs to mp4 format to take on my iPhone on vacation. I can get the mpeg-4 codec movies to download and play on the iPhone, but I can not get mp4 movies created with the h264 codec to download to the iPhone from iTunes. The message I get when syncing is "movie name" can not be copied to "my iphone" because it cannot be played on this iphone. Any ideas? has anyone gotten the h264 codec to work with iphone? I am using HandBrake to convert from DVD with the following options.
File format= MP4 file
Codecs=AVC/H.264 Video / AAC Audio
Framerate= 29.97
Encoder= x264 (h.264 iPod)
Output size= 320 x 176
Bit rate Average= 316(kbps)

Have you double checked your video conversion settings to make sure they comply with one of the iPhone's three supported video profiles?
These are:
H.264 video, up to 1.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Low-Complexity version of the H.264 Baseline Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats
H.264 video, up to 768 Kbps, 320 by 240 pixels, 30 frames per second, Baseline Profile up to Level 1.3 with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats
MPEG-4 video, up to 2.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Simple Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats

Quicktime Mov with H264 codec keeps crashing.

Hi all, i keep getting an buffer overflow when viewing several mov, h264 videos.
The problem seams to be an memcpy witch is made by quicktimeh264.scaler.
Any way to fix this?

I've tryed updating everything(Quicktime, OS), but still the problem remains.
I can use windows + vlc to view the files without any crash...

Almost every file created by ffmpeg in h264, makes quicktime component h264 scaler crash after about 30 minutes of playing / editing.
Not sure i understand your solution, there seams to be an exploitable bug in quicktime, witch crashes any app that uses quicktime for playback.
Mpegstream will play the file almost for sure, but this doesn't fix the quicktime bug.

Encode 4K dpx files with H264 codec or AVCHD to MP4 wrapper with Compressor?

I have 4K dpx files that I want to encode with H264 codec or AVCHD to MP4 wrapper. Can either Compressor 4 or 5 support this? If so, what specific encoder settings are needed? Currently, I receive Quicktime error -108

Don't use mp4, use Qucktime h.264. I'm sure mp4 doesn't support 4k.

How to join two MP4 movies with iMovie '11?

Just after a quick bit of help here. I'm not a movie making enthusiast so never used iMovie before and never will again most likely. However I do have 2 mp4 movies about 4 minutes each that I SIMPLY want to join together.
I've searched and seen reference to dragging the fils into a project then just export as one but for the life of me if import the files I can't seem to find anywhere that provides a view of the two files as thumbnails so I can just drag them to say this one first, this one second. Join please. I seem to get streams and streams of individual frames with sliding lines and what not and the best I seem to be able to get is about 4 seconds at a time. Surely ther MUST be an easy way to just join two movies together without going into advanced frame by frame editing.
It's not the most intuitive piece of software and I don't have any desire to learn it. Problem is I am in a **** of rush with this and at the end of a 14 hour image managament day which is making me less than patient with iMovie.

QuickTime X can join your two files. Edit menu "Add Clip to End..."

MP4 Videos with Hikvision codec?

Hi,
I've a great amount of videos that need to be available in a website. The videos are recorded using Hikvision cameras and therefore they have a propietary codec. I'm having a lot problems with these codecs (running on some pcs, not working on others) so I decided to serve the videos through streaming using Flash Media Server.
I've been able to use FMS with the example "sample video player". It works perfectly with the mp4 samples of the tutorial. But when I try to put one of my videos the player screen keeps buffering. It's important to highlight that I can play my videos with Windows Media Player (Hikvision provides a Windows Media Player Filter) and a propietary player that this company provides as well.
I would like to know if there is a way to set up these codecs into FMS, because I know that FMS supports MP4, but I'd like to specify the codec I just need.
Thanks in advance

First of all, thanks for your reply.
I ran FLVCheck and I got Error 18 (Truncated box). I guessed this was why FMS didn't get the propritory codecs from the OS. And that's why I wondered if there's a way to link FMS with other codecs. I'm afraid this is not looking good for me .

How to change Camera settings while NetStream is published with H264 codec

Hi,
when I'm using H264 codec I can't modify my cam.setMode(w,h, fps) because my stream hangs (second call to cam.setMode() uhangs video. When I'm using Sorenson codec that same code works fine.
So my question is how can I change Camera settings when I'm publishing images from this camera with NetStream encoded with H264. I'm using Flash Player 11,3,300,270 Windows 7 64 bit ActiveX.
Swf compiled to target Flash Player 11.3, swf-version=16.

Try to unpublish/pause publishing just before setting the things on camera and resume/publish again after the settings are applied.

ITunes won't sync mp4/mov on pictures folder to iPhone/iPad

This has only started happening since updating to IOS 5, on both iPad 1 and iPhone 4. The actual message is: "Some of the videos in your iTunes library were not copied to the iPhone/iPad because they cannot be pladed on this iPhone/iPad"
Problem is, these videos (some taken with the iPhone 4!) have previously sync´d before, so I know that they are the correct format (mp4´s and mov´s). I have tried deleting all pictures, and syncing again to no avail.
I´m on a Windows 7 x64 machine.
Can anyone help, please?

Apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
2 - run Option #4 to rebuild the database.
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
2 - click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option.
4 - In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
5 - Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments. However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

Hi,
I am creating an video conferencing tool in which I am using H.264 video codec for stream. When I tried to publish video with 640*480 and video quality= 90 and FPS =15, My machine CPU usage crosses 70% mark. while with same setting I publish my video with Sorenson then it never cross more than 30%. It is same with all flashPlayers.
Anyone can tell how to reduce CPU usage.

Green line on movies bottom when converted with H264/MPEG4 codecs-HELP PL!

Hi all,
Every time I convert movies from any Quicktime-readable format to .mov format (including .mov to .mov), the resulting movie has a (horrendous) *green line* on the bottom.
This happen only when I use Quicktime Pro. No other application give me this bad result.
As only one of many examples you can see in this screenshot a movie (right) made using iShowU with "Apple none" codec, which means that is totally uncompressed.
To reduce the size I have used QT with H264 codec. The result is (always) that green line (left).
No matter if I change the movie size or crop it. After all when I export it to save, the green line will be there again.
Could somebody please help me with this issue?

*Thank you very much.*

Thank you David.
Did work!
I also read the post you suggested.
My original video was 426x175 and I changed it in the export properties to 426x 174 . One (1) pixel smaller, and voila!
Doing this and reading that post doesn't match with Apple's straight forward style.
Imagine if you have a stubborn movie because of its dimensions?
I felt like doing medieval engineering.
Thanks a lot again, David.

Can't TAG Mp4 files with Dolby Digital AC3 5.1

Hi everyone, I use iTunes to TAG all my Mp3 and Mp4, I have over 100,000 Mp3 tagged with iTunes without no problem and over 2,000 DVDs concerts, TV series, etc in Mp4 format tagged also with iTunes without any problems, all my Mp4 til now have 2 channel stereo sound.
My problem now is that I'm making some Mp4 movies with dolby digital 5.1 and this Mp4 play perfect in iTunes and QuickTime ''but'' I can't TAG them in iTunes because of the AC3 5.1, I'm sure of this because everthing made in 2 channel stereo have no problem to TAG in iTunes. If I TAG them its seems in the begining to write the TAGs but if I clear iTunes and then re-load again the files the TAGs dissapears.
I use MAC and PC. I use Nero Recode 2 to make my Mp4. I have the last version of iTunes and QT.... I have noticed that Winamp can write the TAGs without any problems and stays there but what I need is to iTunes recognize that TAGs because I run all my libraries in iTunes
Thanks in advance, sorry for my english.

Anybody please, any answer can help me please... Is that no body has experience this same problem?
If iTunes can't support TAGs with 5.1 is possible to fix this in the next update?
Regards

Watching purchased iTune movies with no internet

I bought a Lacinema external HD because they said you could watch MP4 movies with it. I purchased 3 seasons of TV shows and several movies only to find that it won't play movies from iTunes.
Please help me. I have spent soooo much money at iTunes, and I just want to take my shows for a long weekend with the girls. We are in a remote cabin with no internet. I have purchased these can't I watch them from my personal external HD in some way?
I leave in 48 hours!!!
Tracy

No error. It just won't play. Could it be because I already moved the shows to external HD and deleted them from iTunes.
In the past, I have been able to pull these off the external HD, and still watch them. I just tried that and nothing happens.
My yearly subscription is due so I took care of that just in case that was the problem. I deauthorized all computers because it said I have 5 authorized, and only have two (unless ATV counts as a 3rd). Went I went to authorize laptop it says "a required iTunes component is not installed (error 42403).

.mts to .mov (with Apple Intermediate Codec)

Hi.
I would like to ask you if is it possible to (batch) convert movies from my handycam Sony HiD AVCHD (.MTS) to FCE (.mov) with Apple Intermediante Codec inside the .mov file.
I successly converted my .mts files with FFMPEG:
ffmpeg -i 0011.mts -sameq -deinterlace 0011.mov
But, I need "Apple Intermediate Codec" inside the .mov file to avoid FCE from "render" again all my videos.
Thank you in advance

Hi there skalicki`.
Thank you very much for your help!!
I was a litle bit stressed here.
Well, it worked: I tested MPEG Streamclip to open one of my .mov and convert it to quicktime format with Apple Intermediate Codec and inserted that file into my Final Cut Express project and ... yes! it worked! No "re-rendering" processes.
For now, the steps I'm using are:
1) copy my xxx.mts files to /tmp
2) ffmpeg -i xxx.mts -sameq -deinterlace xxx.mov
* the annoying thing is that ffmpeg just cannot convert some movies:
[h264 @ 0x1003600]sps_id out of range
[h264 @ 0x1003600]B picture before any references, skipping
[h264 @ 0x1003600]decodesliceheader error
[h264 @ 0x1003600]no frame!
[h264 @ 0x1003600]B picture before any references, skipping
3) Open MPEG Streamclip and convert xxx.mov to /tmp/newmov/xxx.mov
codec= Apple Intermediate Codec, audio=direct copy
Now I'm looking for a way to use MPEG Streamclip from command line ..
Thank you again!
