Mpeg-4 - Nero Recode 2 - iTunes

Hi, I have 760 Mpeg-4 Concerts and videos (1.30 min. average) and I want to add my Mp4 to iTunes and then when finish to add all the Mp4 I realize that there are missing some Mp4, in fact It's missing 125 Mp4, If I add manually one by one nothing happens and there is no way to add those 125 Mp4
I use Nero Recode 2 for all my Mp4 and I use simple profile: quick time compability. All my Mp4 works perfect in all kind of players: WMP, VLC, Nero Showtime, etc. etc.
Please help me, thanks in advance

Hi again, I did not check those 125 Mp4 in Quik Time and when I try to play those Mp4 I get this error: Error -37: a bad filename or volume name was encountered
What can I do to solve this problem, thanks in advance

  • IPod Video Woes? - Nero Recode 2 Works Great!

    Well, like many of you, I've tried to convert video unsuccessfully to my iPod. I've tried Videora, PSP Video 9 and a few other programs. Not ONE of these programs has created a successful video that can be ported to the iPod (even though, for some, that's ALL they are advertised to do). The Videora iPod Converter is a program to convert, yet it doesn't work for me AT ALL... even using the SP modes. Sure, it loads into iTunes fine, but getting it to load into the actual iPod is another, sad, sad story! LOL!
    We all are aware that, as of right now, the H.264 codec doesn't seem to be working for many of us and MPEG-4 is, so I finally got my iPod and tried Nero Recode 2 today (part of the Nero 7 Ultra Edition).
    Using Nero Recode 2, I was successful in not only creating 320x240 files that loaded into iTunes, but they also loaded right into my new iPod with no playback problems, errors, or skipping. I used a 1.78:1 16:9 source (a DVD that was ripped to my hard drive) and loaded it into Nero using the following settings:
    In AUDIO #1 I set it to:
    STEREO (CUSTOM PROFILE) LC (LOW COMPLEXITY) NERO DIGITAL AUDIO @ 48,000 Hz and 160 kbit/s
    For VIDEO the Setting I used the slider to set the "Video Quality" to 764.6 Kbps
    Make sure you UNCHECK the "Fit to Target" box and then click on the VIDEO button on the right (underneath the CHAPTER button). Since it was an anamorphic DVD I was using, I disabled "Deinterlace", disabled "Crop" and I resized to 320x240 and checked the LETTERBOXING (SQUARE PIXEL) box. Checking this box is necessary with anamorphic material so that the final file you create will be properly letterboxed (not stretched) in the 320x240 display on the iPod (it'll have the black bars properly placed at the top and bottom of the video).
    Click NEXT after adjusting the above settings...
    In NERO DIGITAL SETTINGS, make sure EXPERT MODE is checked.
    Encoding Method = High-Quality Encoding (2 pass)
    Quality/Speed = Extra Quality
    Advanced = Check "Simple Profile (QuickTime Compatibility)"
    Then hit BURN and come back in a couple hours.
    Your file should be done and ready to load onto your iPod with very nice picture and sound quality and in the proper aspect ratio for the iPod screen.
    The ONLY thing I wish Nero Recode could do is, like in Videora and PSP Video 9, raise the volume level of the encoded sound. I watched my movie through the headphones on my iPod and it sounded great, but I had the volume turned all the way up to the max. I wish there was a setting to boost the audio a bit, but at least the videos actually WORK!
    I hope this helps you all.
    I have used the above settings for three films so far and all are fine. They range between 600-800 meg in size. That's big, but I have a 60 gig iPod, so I have plenty of room. If you want smaller files, maybe try 128kbit/s instead of 160 kbit/s for the audio and lower the video bit rate slider a bit.

    I have converted 6 movies now with Nero Recode 2 and transferred them to my iPod. The audio ISN'T that low on any of them. As a matter of fact, the audio is perfectly acceptible, but the volume is turned all the way up. At the max volume setting, the audio is at just about the point where my ears want to turn it down, but it's OK.
    The main reason why I wish the audio could be boosted a little is because, if the movies are slightly low and I turn up the volume, then I STOP watching a movie and switch to music, the music might be soooo loud, it'll blast my ears because of the volume differences between the two formats (this happened last night and it was certainly annoying). People might forget to turn down the volume when switching programs/audio.
    So far NO movie convert app has got all the bells and whistles to be a perfect solution for converting movies.
    NERO RECODE works, but lacks a volume adjustment in the files. It also allows you to letterbox your source video properly for the iPod display if you use anamorphic widescreen videos. It also imports DVD VOB files perfectly, with no sync issues.
    VIDEORA IPOD CONVERTER does have a volume adjustment capability, but doesn't adjust the 16:9 image to add letterboxing bars for proper playback on the iPods 320x240 screen. It would work for full-screen material, I guess, but it still doesn't work for me on my system for some reason, even in MPEG4 SP mode. The resulting video files DO load into iTunes and can be played on my computer, but not on the iPod. When loading the files to the iPod, the audio plays... the movies don't. Some people are saying Videora works for them, but I can't get anything to play on my iPod using the SP/320x240/768/128 MPEG4 profile. Must have something to do with the fact that I'm using VOB files, maybe?
    I've tried PSP VIDEO 9, to no avail, as well...
    I guess I could go the whole TMPGENC to 320x240 route and adjust the audio there, but that would mean I'd have to rip and re-encode the video to MPEG2 first, THEN covert again to the iPod MPEG4 format. That would mean re-encoding the audio/video twice (degrading the video even more than it would be otherwise) and it would take MUCH longer to do. But, this being said, it might be the steps I'd need to take to actually get Videora iPod Converter to work properly.
    Someone needs to create a program that successfully converts DVD movies directly from the VOB file structure, allows up to 160kbits/s encoding on the audio (as well as audio volume adjustment) and that allows for you to reformat the video to 320x240 letterbox format for 16:9 anamorphic materials. Nero Recode 2 is ALMOST perfect... but not quite... it does do everything except allow volume adjustments in the final MP4 file.
    No matter how much people are touting Videora iPod Converter, I just cannot get it to work successfully for what I need. Even if I found a solution to the problem, Videora CANNOT reformat stretched 16:9 anamorphic videos to letterboxed format, like Nero can. Sure, it can CROP... but it cannot RESIZE. I do not want to watch stretched, distorted video on my iPod.

  • AppleTV 2G apparently can't play a MPEG-4 file, even though iTunes can

    After spending a couple of hours late at night struggling with this, I just wanted to share the fruits of my labors!
    So, when trying to airplay some videos from iTunes to my AppleTV, I kept receiving the error message: "An error occurred loading this content. Try again Later." I tried so many things recommended on this board -- upgrading firmware, changing audio settings, changing HDMI settings and finally, resetting to factory defaults. Nothing helped.
    Finally, I noticed that many of my videos did play. The difference between those that did and those that didn't? The ones that worked used the H.264 video codec. The ones that didn't indicated that they are MPEG-4's. Not sure why this is relevant, but there it is.
    I should add that my iTunes library is on my NAS -- a Western Digital MyBook World II drive. Can't see why this would affect MPEG-4 versus H.264, but there it is.
    By the way, I import all my videos into iPhoto and then have to move them all to iTunes -- an extra step and lots of copying time. Is there a better way to store videos and have them playable via iTunes and AppleTV?

    You need to find the specs of the MPEG-4 videos to work out why.
    AppleTV 2 has limited format support as detailed here:
    H.264 video up to 720p, 30 frames per second, Main Profile level 3.1 with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps per channel, 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
    Motion JPEG (M-JPEG) up to 35 Mbps, 1280 by 720 pixels, 30 frames per second, audio in ulaw, PCM stereo audio in .avi file format
    I would guess the MPEG-4 videos are higher resolution or worng profile.

  • HT4914 Can MPEG files be used with iTunes Match?

    I have a lot of songs on iTunes that are MPEG format, can they be used with Match? Thanks in advance!

    Hi Gee-go,
    Yes.  I just wanted to double-check, since there are several audio and video formats that go by the name of MPEG (since they are based on specifications from the Motion Pictures Expert Group), but the one iTunes calls "MPEG audio file" is indeed MP3.
    If you subscribe to Match, it will attempt to match songs (MP3 or other format) in your library with Store AAC/256 versions of the same song.  Match does not replace the version in your library, unless you manually remove the original from your library and download the matched version.
    The 25k limit counts any songs in your library that were not purchased from the iTunes Store.

  • Importing MPEG-4 audio files into itunes

    Hi,
    I am a new user of iTunes. I am unable to import MPEG-4 audio files from an audio CD into my iTunes library. This audio CD was created by a friend on his MAC.
    Interestingly, I am able to play the same MPEG-4 files through my Windows Media Player. I have the most recent and updated versions of Quicktime (7.4.5) and the most updated iTunes player for Windows (7.6.2.9). Coincidentally, the same audio CD has some MP3 files which I am able to import into iTunes with no problem.
    Would greatly appreciate any help.
    Thanks

    Incidentally, I am able to play these same MPEG-4 files through my QuickTime player just fine.
    Thanks.

  • Nero aac crashing itunes 10.1.1.4

    I had a lot of songs ripped via Nero prior to moving to iTunes. I'm running up against two issues with Nero-encoded songs:
    - I'm running airtunes, the nero-encoded songs will not play on any of my remote devices via airport express devices (the songs play on my local machine)
    - certain nero-encoded songs cause itunes to crash. I've noticed that songs encoded with the 2.6.x version of aac cause the crash, so far songs encoded with 3.2.x version do not.
    I'm trying to go back & re-import songs that I find, but I don't think there is a way to do a search to find songs that are not encoded by some version of iTunes.
    Until I loaded 10.1.1.4, I just had the first issue, annoying but not unbearable. Now that the thing crashes every few songs, very annoying.
    Any hints (other than 'find & re-rip every nero-encoded song'...) much appreciated.

    I have this issue as well. I have an iPhone 3G 16GB, just updated to the latest iTunes and 4.2.1 firmware. I'm on Windows 7 Professional 64-bit. I've spend like 1,5 hours total reorganizing apps, all for nothing.

  • 7.4.2.4 Muxed MPEG-1 now works in iTunes but Convert to iPod doesn't?

    Hi All (go easy this is my first post here)
    I've done some searches and I know that mux-ed MPEG-1 files used to loose their sound when imported into iTunes. This looks like it is now fixed in iTunes 7.4.2
    eg the example file supplied davidelasalashowreel2005 which is MPEG-1 MUXed imports fine into iTunes.
    But if you hit the "convert to iPod" it looses sound in iTunes and in the iPod (nano3)
    How does this fit the statement "if it works in quicktime it will work in the iPod?"
    Other than spending another $50 for quicktime Pro are there any other fixes for this?
    I just want to import an AVI of my kids singing Happy Birthday onto my wife's birthday present - why is it so hard?
    regards
    Matthew

    Unsolved till yet. I´ve read all the other threads touching this theme, but nothing substantial. No solution. No comments of Apple.
    I´ve take a look into the files with Wordpad and I can see the lyrics inside the files. But, again, with the iPod nothing except the title.

  • Can`t see hd MPEG 4 movies downloaded from iTunes store., Can`t see hd MPEG 4 movies downloaded from iTunes store.

    iMac 27" late 2012. In iTunes there is sound, but just a still picture, like a chess board. Quick Time will neither play. Same still picture. Last version of Mountain Lion.
    Tried VLC. Same issue, almost, but with no sound.
    Any thoughts of solution?
    Take care

    I installed Paralells with Windows 7 in virtual machine. Inside Mountain Lion. 512MB video memory, 2 CPU`s. Installed iTunes for Windows. Pressed the iTunes button, then a movie, then the play trial button, then guess what? It played HD Video just fine, inside Mountain Lion in Windows 7.
    Is this normal I still wan`t to be able to watch video in the iTunes running inside Mountain Lion from time to time. Any idea of solution?
    Since there is no broken hardware and it works in Windows 7, there is something Mountain Lion don`t have that Windows have to be able to play video.Something software related, like a video codec or something. I guess.
    Take care

  • MPEG stuttering when played in iTunes, normal when played directly in QT

    I have an MPG which plays just fine in QT, but when I add it to iTunes and play it through there (it lands in the Movies section and I double-click it), it stutters (the audio), as if it has trouble keeping up with it. Any ideas? Can this be fixed, or should I not be using iTunes to manage my video content?

    I'm experiencing the exact same thing. All my music & movies stutter when played in iTunes but play fine through Quicktime. Any solutions?

  • Playing MPEG-4 Video files in iTunes - No Sound

    Hi there,
    I have recently purchased some albums with videos etc.. However, I cannot seem to hear the sound. The video plays in iTunes without any problems but there is no sound coming out. Is this to do with codecs etc... I am running under Windows XP.
    Thanks for any help and suggestions.

    Download and install QuickTime 7.4.1 - make sure to select the standalone version, not the one with iTunes - and your troubles should be taken care of.

  • Porblem with mpeg format even converted using itunes

    hi
    I bought a new ipod of 80 gb but when i try to add the video files to it and convert it using itunes as convert for ipod/iphone it was playing video but the audio was not playing.
    Could any please help me in this

    Quicktime or Quicktime Pro (both of which iTunes uses) does not convert "muxed" ( muxed means multiplexed where the audio and video are stored on the same track) video files properly. It only plays the video and not the audio.
    See:iPod plays video but not audio.
    You need a 3rd party converter to convert the file with both audio and video.
    See this for help: Guide to converting video for iPod (Mac/Windows).

  • Converting MPEG-4 Audio Files back to iTunes

    So my computer crashed from Vista's Service Pack 1. The cause of the crash was unknown at the time and I thought I had a virus so instead of backing up files which could contain virus's. I just reformatted my computer.
    Now I have about 10 gigs of legal music from various place (CD's, iTunes, Friends) which are all already on my iPod. I know there are 3rd party programs to retrieve these songs, but I know a little bit about computers so I just did it myself.
    The problem I am having is converting the MPEG-4(m4a) files so iTunes recognizes that these are music files like a MPEG-3(mp3). For some reason the actual CD's I bought when burned saved under both file types, I have no idea why. So basically I am missing about 1/3 of my library.
    Any help on how to get these files back onto iTunes from my iPod without re-burning 100's of CD's?

    Some of those solutions are free. You can also take a look at this user tip:

    The solution presented is free albeit a bit involved.

  • Trying to get an MPEG Layer 3 Audio book onto iTunes

    I purchased an audio book that downloaded in an MPEG Layer 3 Audio format.  I have two questions...
    #1 - I've researched importing MPEG 3 Audio music into iTunes and it typically tells you to just do a drag-n-drop into iTunes.  Do they mean drop it into the folder that holds the iTunes music files or drop it right into iTunes as it appears on you screen when it is open?
    #2 - The book downloaded as many smaller files all making up the single book.  I don't want to load each individual one into iTunes do I?  Or do I load all of them individually and then make a play list that will play them consecutively so I can listen to the book?
    Thanks in advance!

    Here's what worked for me when iTunes would let me just drag an drop mp3 files into a new playlist on my PC.
    -First I made sure iTunes my default audio player.
    -In the folder containing them I selected all of the mp3 files I wanted to add to the new playlist.
    -I right-clicked the selected files and clicked "Open."
    That's all I needed to get the mp3 files into the "Songs" display of "My Music" on iTunes. The rest was straightforward. Here's hoping this will work for you!
