Need help saving video.

I have used imovie in the past before updating to the new mavericks. I believe I had an older version of imovie as well. I used to use imovie for editing the lighting of the video and then saving it on my desktop where then I would just email it to myself and download it from my phone. Now I don't know how to just export the video to my download folder while keeping the compatiblity to where it plays on ipods and iphones. Any help? I can keep the compatibily if I share using itunes but I'm not wanting that. I want to save it to my downloads folder first then email it.

File Menu/Export/Movie is last seen in Premiere Elements 7. Now File Menu/Export/Title remains.
Your export opportunities for Premiere Elements 13/13.1 are in the Publish+Share area of the program. Have you updated 13 to 13.1 yet using an opened project's Help Menu/Updates? If not, consider doing so.
What are the properties of your source media on the Timeline that is destined for Nero for your burn to Blu-ray disc format on Blu-ray disc?
Have you considered taking your Timeline directly to Blu-ray disc format on Blu-ray disc in Premiere Elements 13/13.1 using Publish+Share/Disc/Blu-ray?

Need help with videos!!! Please

i need help! i have a 30G ipod video and my videos are being weird. They used to play on my ipod but now there is no picture or sound. it plays on itunes too so i dont understand. Also, my purchased music plays on itunes but skips past them on my ipod-they used to play on my ipod. PLEASE help me!

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
For Videos:
So what are they doing? Are the videos showing up under "Videos" on the iPod? What happens when you try to play them? Have you tried these?
Resetting iPod
Restore the iPod
For Purchased Music Skipping:
Have you played the songs in iTunes for a few seconds? This will authorize them. Now sync your iPod. Do they play?
If not, make sure everything is up to date on your computer and iPod..
iTunes
iPod Updater
Updating iPod's Software
If that doesn't work, in iTunes, go to advanced-->deauthorize computer. Now play the songs in iTunes. It will ask for your account information (from the iTunes Music Store). Enter that. Now play a few purchased songs for a few seconds. Sync your iPod. Do the songs work now?
If they don't, try this...
Deauthorize the computer. (Go to advanced-->deauthorize computer in iTunes)
Create a new user in the system. (Start-->control panel-->user accounts-->create a new account)
Download the free song of the week in the new user account. (First, log out of the current user and log in to the new user account. Then open iTunes and download the free song)
Play the song in that username to authorize it.
Restore the iPod in the New User account, sync just the Free song of the Week and see if it plays on the iPod.
If it plays fine on the iPod when syncing with this user name (after you followed the above instructions), it would indicate a bad iTunes Library File. Post back for instructions on how to fix that.
Now, if it still won't work (you followed the above instructions with the new user account) and the iPod still won't play the songs, then post back.

Need Help Converting Video

Hello - I have a couple of separate questions that I need help with. I know basic FCP. I have FCP7. I recently shot a wedding with 2 different cameras. Both are HiDef Cameras. 1 Camera is a Prosumer Camera where the files were taking off the camera and imported by Final Cut. The second is a new, home camcorder which saved the files into a hard drive in MPEG 4 format.
I need to marry the two. I can import the all the files (from both cameras) directly into the timeline. But the ones from the camcorder (the mpeg4s) seem to have that "hitchy" feel to them when I play them back. Also, both types of files (even the ones that were directly imported into Final Cut from the Prosumer Camera) have the "render" lines when they are in the timeline, so I constantly have to render which takes forever.
The files that were imported directly into FCP from the ProSumer camera were imported on a different computer with a different version of FCP, so when I drag them into my timeline it tells me that they were from a different version and asks me if I want to update for my version. If I click YES then it stretches the files from 16:9 to 4:3. If I say NO then it keeps the 16:9 aspect ratio, but adds yet another layer of render I need to do.
Normally I do simple, Standard Def edits where I import things into the timeline via FCP7 with firewire from a deck and edit directly from there, then firewire back to the deck. Simple - no rendering, etc. My questions are as follows:
1 - Do I need to reset my timeline settings because I am now working with HiDef? Or does FCP automatically know that it is HD and it doesnt matter how I drag it into the timeline?
2 - Do I need to convert the MPEG 4 files to quicktime format, or does it not make a difference
3 - When I export, what settings would I use to keep it in HiDef. I am only going to make DVDs with it.
4 - Is there a way to do it so that I do not have to render constantly while editing
5 - To view, I am firewiring out to a deck which is then going into a Standard Def monitor. Is that the reason the footage appears "hitchy"?
Any help is greatly appreciated. If you have any help, please drop me a note at [email protected]
Thanks

YOu need to learn how to use FCP. Sorry, no offense needed, and I know it sounds harsh. But from reading that I can tell you have no idea about how to properly import tapeless media into FCP...and don't know what formats FCP works with...nor know what formats the cameras record. This is all basic stuff you need to know before you edit. Editing isn't only creative, but lately highly technical as well...you need to know what your software is capable of doing, and how to get the footage into it properly.
You cannot do what you did...directly drag from the cameras into FCP. No...it needs to be imported, typically with LOG AND TRANSFER...and converted from the shooting format, which typically isn't natively editable in FCP (want native, use Adobe Premiere...). It needs to be converted to ProRes. And yes, the file sizes of ProRes are a LOT bigger than the camera originals. 4-5 times larger. That's how FCP works.
Here's a quick tutorial to get you started. But then I suggest getting to know the editing system better.

Need help fixing video playback on iTunes and worried it will affect iphone

First of all, the black levels when playing videos on iTunes looked terrible.
I looked all over on how to fix this..
So then I installed the lastest nvidia graphics drivers to help with video playback
After install my videos black level was definatly better, I think.
But now all videos play wierdly in the corner of the itunes program..
http://img36.imageshack.us/img36/8170/ituneshelp.png
I need help to fix this and I hope this dont affect playback on iphone 4

If exporting to i4 results in the same, there could be a problem with the movie itself. Try exporting to the i4 and replay the video. However if exporting to i4 plays okay on the phone, it's your Nvidia drivers. You can download the prior Nvidia drivers and downgrade.
There have been dozens of cases where Nvidia drivers even the newest ones have made a mess of games, movie playbacks, even viewing Windows programs.

I need help with videos?

I need help. I have a video in my library AND iPod. The problem is - the video PLAYS when I click it on iTunes, but when I try to play it on my video iPod, all it does is let me hear what they're saying, it doesn't show the video. Can somebody help me?

Hey, what is the link to downloading Videora? Ivé tried downloading it but it doesn't work. The program does not open after installing it. I get some sort of error message. I clicked on the Full Install one when downloading it.

Need help exporting video

(I have Premiere Pro CS4 and I'm pretty new to it)
All my videos are 640 by 480 AVI files and the frame rate is 30fps. What are the best settings to export these videos at?
For some reason when I set the dimensions at the beginning to 640 to 480, and then I set the Pixel Aspect Ratio to "Square Pixels" because that is the only setting that will give me a 4:3 ratio, which is what I need since the videos are 640 by 480. But when I go to 'Export', the dimensions have been changed to 720 by 480, and I can't change the settings. What should I do? (I'm trying to save them as AVI)

Can you give us the full details of these AVI files. If you do not have that, the great, free utility, G-SPOT will give it to you.
You will want to set your Project/Sequence to that. If necessary, choose Desktop for the Preset and then fill in all of the attributes to match your source footage.
What do you wish to Export to?
What is your delivery scheme?
That will determine your Export settings in AME. You will need to choose a Preset that matches that. You have probably chosen a DV Preset.
Good luck,
Hunt

Need Help With Videos

I've always used Quicktime and it's always been good. But now when I click on my saved videos, the sound will play, but the video is all white with small yellow outlines of the object. I tried downloading the newer version, but it said I already have a newer version. How do I fix the videos?

I think I might have the remedy for your problem.
Open up quicktime player, click the edit menu, then
preferences, then quicktime preferences, click the
advanced tab, under video click the safe mode(GDI
Only) tab Then you select the apply or the ok button.
I CANT BELIEVE IT- IT WORKED...THANK YOU SO MUCH !!!!!

Need help saving a rendered video in Premiere Elements 13...

I have a rendered video that I am ready to save to my computer. The last Premiere Elements program I had was 1.0 lol. In 1.0, I would select to export the video as .avi and use that to burn to a dvd. In Premiere Elements 13, "export" is grayed out. What it looks like I need to do now is Publish the rendered video, but I don't know what to select to save it to my computer for future burning to a Blue Ray Disc. I plan on using Nero to burn the video to BD. Any help would be appreciated.

Dad needs help saving his little girls HD Videos - Please Help!

I am new to Mac. I have always been a PC guy. I am pretty good with computers/ learning Imac. I shoot video and pictures all the time and I have been waiting forever for the ability to edit and author in Blue Ray, I embraced Blue Ray and HD early on before the Blue Ray/HD Dvd war had been won. THe only software out there that was ready for what I wanted to do was more like Pro software $1000 + and nothing great Consumer level. I was using Roxio DVDit HD. Doesn't work with APple. I have been shooting HD video on my Sony HDR-HC3 for 3 years. It captures on Mini DV HD tapes(1 hour HD Content). I have about 35 tapes filled that I want to start editing. I have been holding off for the past 2 years due to the emergence of Blue Ray. I do have a Blue Ray Burner on my Sony Vaio but it is s l o w . These are videos of my little girls and I want the footage in the best quality possible. I am learning my way around Final Cut Express but it has been slow. I figured since I have no Blue Ray Drive on the Imac whats the rush. 35 Tapes later and I am starting to have an anxiety attack! Plus I am ready to start watching/editing what I have taped so far. Here is what I want to do. I want to import my tapes to Final Cut Express. Then save the whole tape unedited in digital format so that I may go and access it at any time as I decide how I want to compile the films down the road. Perhaps I will do a Christmas Movie or Birthdays. I don't know how many I will do but I don't want to have to import from 6 or more tapes each time I start a new project. I want to then never use the tape again and save it for back up. The more I research the more confused I get. I want to ultimately burn Blue Ray discs but that is not an issue yet. For now just getting a high quality digital /editable back-up would be great. I started exporting to the Hard Drive and about 4, 1 hour movies, took up my entire computer!! About 361 Gig!!! how is that even possible. Will I really need 20 1 Terabyte hard drives to do this? I used to just use Window Movie Maker to output avi files but that was before the HD Camera. I also don't want to save as 720 resolution to save space. I want a great quality master copy. Ultimately this will be played on Blue Ray on 55" LED Samsung with razor sharp picture. Please help me.

Hi(Bonjour)!
Welcome to the forum.
HDV cannot be captured natively in FCE. It is transcoded to Apple Intermediate Codec. 1 hour of HDV 1080i60 transcoded to AIC take around 49 gig/hour. period.
Native HDV take around same hard drive space than DV. BUT you need Final Cut Pro (bundled with Final Cut Studio) to capture it as HDV.
I'm pretty sure that your can edit one tape and just keep the "crème de la crème" ( http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/cr%C3%A8mede_lacr%C3%A8me )of your precious footage.
Save the final edit as a self contained movie and store it on external hard drive for future use. This process is very long but it can solve your problem. Capture one tape per week if you can.
There are other option to distribute HD content than Blu-ray. You can search this forum with +Apple TV, HD monitoring from mac+, keywords. Also see:

hi,
i want to back up an 86 minute film (created on fcp) using media manager. i simply want to back up all the files used in the film (along w/ the timeline), and delete the unused scraps (of which there is much). i've searched on this board but can't find exact instructions for such a move. can somebody explain or point me to a good link?
thanks much,

The manual covers it rather well. In good detail I might add. I had to do something very similiar recently and that is where I looked.

FCP Novice needs help with video quality and FCP 5!!

Hi,
I have a real problme that I cannot seem to fix. I think its because I am doing something really wrong!
I have a Sony HC42E MiniDV Camcorder which by default records video in full widescreen. I recorded several tapes this way and have now begun trying to edit them in FCP 5.04 (Tiger 10.4.6). Whenever I log and capture my clips they appear to be fuzzzy and unclear on the Mac monitor whilst being totally crisp and sharp on the camcorder viewfinder. I tried capturing using the DV PAL 48Khz Anamorphic Preset which keeps everything the right size (the final output needs to be true widescreen and not with black bars added) but the resulting video on screen is blurry and bitty. I then tried capturing using the DV PAL 720 x 576 normal preset and the video is a little clearer on the screen (for both presets I have chosen lower field dominance) but when I play back it plays back in widescreen on the mac canvas window but at 4:3 on the camera's viewfinder.
I then assumed that maybe this is just becuase the mac screen (CRT by the way) doesn't use fields. So I exported the sequence as a QT movie using DV PAL 16:9 and used quicktime (OS9 Classic - my compressor has never worked because of the dreaded "unable to connect to baackground process" problem which I've never managed to correct) to convert it to MPEG2. When I import this as an asset into DVD Studio pro 4 and set the track size to 16:9 it comes through at the right aspect ratio. However it looks blurry on screen. Thinking that this will be fine on a TV I burned the disc - inserted it into my DVD player (a good one!) and watched it on my new 32" widescreen TV (a good one!) and the picture qualitty is poor. Its so much blurrier and bittier than the original footage looks when played through the camcorder's viewfinder!
The final footaage looks like an old VHS recording that's a year or two old!
Does anyone know how I can capture my footage in FCP with the maximum quality, edit it without quality loss and the export it for DVD again without such significant quality loss whilst all the time keeping it at proper 16:9 widescreen?
Is there some presets I should be working to?
I'm tearing my hair out! Help!

Hi Guys,
thanx for your replies.
here's the latest:
Brian, I followed your instructions and the DVD burned successfully. However the video quality of the dvd when viewed on my TV ('ve tried on all 3 of my tvs now) is still a lot poorer than the quicktime movie that was imported into DVDSP4. When I play the original QT Movie on my Mac CRT monitor it looks a little blurry and grainy because I guess its non interlaced however when viewed on an external Video monitor it looks great - very sharp.
When I view the burned DVD on my television the picture quality looks like the non interlaced version of the original QT Movie that appeared on my Mac CRT and not the sharp interlaced (lower field) version that appeared on my external video monitor.
Its almost like taking a sharp jpeg into Photoshop and applying a gaussian blur of about 0.3 followed by jepg compression compressing it down to 5% quality!
I'm totally mystified. Can the conversion to Mpeg2 be removing all interlacing so that you get the less sharp computer monitor look? I just want the video on my final DVDs to be as good as the original source footage! I appreciate that along the way there might be loss of some quality but surely not that much?
Does this make sense to you guys or am I still doing something very wrong?
Robert: I have tried setting all manner of drives including a fresh external firewire HD with nothing on it (clean out of the box) but it doesn't seem to help.
Brian: I tried the no network suggestion a few months back but I'm not sure if I got it right. At the moment I have broadband through an external speedtouch usb modem and am also connected (occasionally although not for the last 3 months) via a crossover cable to my PCs ethernet card. When I last tried the No Network solution I had immense trouble getting my internet to work again! Can you please help me by directing me to the best ay to do this while protecting my internet settings?
any more help guys would be greatfully appreciated.

Need help with video on older Mac Pro

I have a 2008 Mac Pro that more than meets all of the specs for FCP X, except the Mac App store won't let me buy and download because the video card in the system doesn't meet specs. I've found an apple support page that lists the compatible video cards for FCP X. Here's my issues:
1. Most of the cards on the list are older and not easily obtainable anymore.
2. Even with models that are newer, it's had to find one labeled for Mac - so can I just use any old model of, say, a Radeon HD 5670 or do I need one specificlaly made for Macs?
3. Bottom line is what card can I use in a 2008 Mac Pro that will meet the specs and that I can actually purchase?
Thanx...Jon

. . . . . . . . . so can I just use any old model of, say, a Radeon HD 5670 or do I need one specificlaly made for Macs?
A Radeon HD 5670 is a Radeon HD 5670 - if it's on the compatible list, it will work in your Mac.
This is my pet checklist for questions regarding FCP X performance - you may have already addressed some of the items but it's worth checking.
Make sure you're using the latest version of the application - FCP X 10.0.5 runs very well on my 2009 MacPro 2 x 2.26 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon with 16 GB RAM and ATI Radeon HD 5870 1024 MB. I run it with Lion 10.7.5.
First, check that you have at least 20% free space on your system drive.
For smooth playback without dropping frames, make sure 'Better Performance' is selected in the FCP X Preferences - Playback Tab.
If you have not already done so, move your Projects and Events to a fast (Firewire 800 or faster) external HD. Make sure the drive's formatted OS Extended (journalling's not required for video). You should always keep at least 20% free space on the Hard Drives that your Media, Projects and Events are on.
Check the spec of your Mac against the system requirements:
http://www.apple.com/finalcutpro/specs/
Check the spec of your graphics card. If it's listed here, it's not suitable:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4664
If you are getting crashes, there is some conflict on the OS. Create a new (admin) user account on your system and use FCP X from there - if it runs a lot better, there's a conflict and a clean install would be recommended.
Keep projects to 20 mins or less. If you have a long project, work on 20 min sections then paste these into a final project for export.
If you ever experience dropped frames, I strongly recommend you use ProRes 422 Proxy - it edits and plays back like silk because the files are small but lightly compressed (not much packing and unpacking to do) - but remember to select 'Original or Optimised Media' (FCP X Preferences > Playback) just before you export your movie, otherwise it will be exported at low resolution.
If you have plenty of processor power, for the ultimate editing experience, create Optimised Media - most camera native files are highly compressed and need a great deal of processor power to play back - particularly if you add titles, filters or effects. ProRes 422 takes up much more hard drive space but is very lightly compressed. It edits and plays back superbly.
Hide Audio Waveforms at all times when you don't need them (both in Browser and Storyline / Timeline). They take up a lot of processor power. (Use the switch icon at the bottom-right of your timeline to select a format without waveforms if you don't need them at the moment, then switch back when you do).
Create folders in the Project and Events libraries and put any projects you are not working on currently, in those folders. This will help a lot. There's a great application for this, called Event Manager X - for the tiny cost it's an invaluable application.
http://assistedediting.intelligentassistance.com/EventManagerX/
Unless you cannot edit and playback without it, turn off Background Rendering in Preferences (under Playback) - this will help general performance and you can always render when you need to by selecting the clip (or clips) and pressing Ctrl+R.
The biggest single improvement I saw in performance was when I upgraded the RAM from 8 GB to 16.
