New Movies feature in Garageband 11- how to export?

I work at a school and would like to be able to import editable videos from Discovery Education United Streaming into the new Movies feature in Garageband. The thought is to have them remove the audio and then create their own on top of the video.  Some students have pre-made songs that they have done previously that we want to add video to. This seems like it would be much easier for students to do in Garageband than importing into iMovie and splitting the audio and then finding their Garageband recordings to insert.
The problem I ran into is that I can import the videos, but Garageband will not allow me to export them.  I have tried on multiple machines, and with multiple videos.  I called Apple support and they suggested that it is a codec issue with the .mov file from Discovery Ed.  They could not tell me what codecs are supported by Garageband.
I was able to get around this problem by importing the downloaded video into iMovie, then exporting it right back out as a .mov file.  When I imported that one into Garageband I was able to export the movie with the new audio file from students without any issues.  If I do this, I might as well just have students use iMovie instead. 
Does anyone have any suggestions of what I can do in Garageband to make this work as easily as it should.  Thank you.

Do you have a link to one of the movies?

  • I made a new movie with Maverick, iMovie.  How do I burn it to a DVD?

    I made a movie with the new Maverick, iMovie.  It had some new twists and turns but generally, I liked it and survived.  I could not discover how to save it to iDVD.  I want to make a DVD from my completed movie but can't figure out how.  Share does not include a DVD option.  Any ideas will be appreciated.  Thanks.

    iDVD still works fine in Mavericks, though not sold or supported by Apple any longer. Here is a step by step of how to use the new iMovie and iDVD to produce a fully working DVD:
    1. Create a project in iMovie 10.0.1
    2. Go to File>Share>File... and for Size choose Large 540P (960 x 540) and click Next
    3. Choose a location on the hard drive to save the file to.
    4. Wait for the blue circle activity indicator to finish.
    5. In Finder, verify that iMovie created an MP4 file in the location specified in step 3.
    6. Open iDVD and click "Create New Project."
    7. Give the project a name and save it to your hard drive.
    8. Drag the file you created earlier from the Finder into your iDVD project window.
         (or go to File>Import>Video... and choose your video there)
    9. Make any adjustments to drop zones, etc.
    10. Click the burn button.
    11. Insert a DVD and let it do its thing.
    Enjoy!
    iDVD is still a great program for burning DVDs.

  • How do I upload a new movie onto my iPhone without having to sync it with iTunes?

    I am new to iPhone and all this syncing is so frustrating and time wasting!
    I am using iTunes on the same computer and every time I want to upload a new movie, video or anything else, iTunes keeps telling me that I am changing libraries and that it will completely wipe out everything from my iPhone. why does this happen? how many libraries are on my iTunes? I am using the same apple id on the same computer and it still wants to delete everything from my iPhone? Is there a different library for EVERYTHING on my phone?

    as I explicitly wrote in my first post:
    of course my iPhone is already synced to the same computer!
    I wanted to add a movie on my iPhone today on the same computer and through the same iTunes that I already synced my iPhone with and when I wanted to upload the movie onto the phone it told me that I am now using a different library and that everything on my phone will be deleted. I also tried to do it manually because I don't want to waste time by backing up the phone, erasing everything from it and then putting it back onto the phone, and iTunes told me the same thing: that I am using a different library etc etc.
    the other day I wanted to put a new ringtone on my iPhone and iTunes did exactly the same thing!
    how can I be using a different library on the SAME COMPUTER and on the SAME iTunes for different things that I want to put on my iphone?
    another thing:
    if using iTunes indeed were as simple and as easy as you say it is, then there wouldn't be as many complaints about it as there are. also: calling someone ignorant just because they don't want to be bothered by the restrictions, complications and unfriendliness of iTunes is pretty lame!

  • New 16:9 movie and how to export it

    Hy
    I have to create a new movie for widescreens 16:9 format, and even If I tryed several times I don't have any success. So please advice me what I'm doing wrong
    When I'm creating a new project I'm setting a new preset with these settings:
    Editing Mode : DV NTSC
    Timebase : 29.97 frames/seccond
    Video : Frame size 720x480 ( I'm not able to chenge these settings
    Pixel aspect Ratio: D1/DV NTSC Widescreen 16:9(1.2)
    Display Format : 30fps Drop-Frame Timecode
    Now for the export I need a movie that can be played on a DivX Player that can support mpeg format or even an avi format.
    First I tryed directly from Export -> Movie but the file is too larger and is not suported by the DVD players
    Seccond I tryed to export it using Adobe Encode but the only suported format are FLV Quick Time, RealMedia and Windows Media. As far as I know the DVD player is not suporting these formats.
    What are your suggestions ?

    Ok I understand, but anyway, during the development, I diddn't solved the problem with the real 16:9 format.
    Because when I'm creating a new project I'm setting Widescreen 16:9 but I can't change the dimmnesions from 720x480 to 852x480. How can I do that ?
    Also the exported file is 14:9

  • How to created a new movement type?

    Hi friends,
    We have a scenario which require stock moved from Return to Unrestriced. However, I haven't found any one step movement type to accomplish the job. I have to use two steps transfer, first Return to QI (457) then QI to unrestricted (321), My question is : If it's possible for me to configure a new movement type to transfer stock from return to unrestricted directly. If yes, how to do it?
    Thanks in advance for your help.
    Linda

    Dear Linda,
    1) i have never Created new movement type
    2) just i am suggesting this, go to OMJJ
    3) Now system will ask for movement type, tick it & eneter
    4) Next screen do not give anything just enter
    5) Now you will get all Movement types
    6) just copy existing one & give required number
    Coming to other parameters just check with MM experts
    Plz wait for experts replies
    Regards

    I'm trying to play this new movie i bought with my macbook but every time i put the movie in it makes a noise and only stays there for 6 seconds then ejects itself how can i fix this problem?

    Restart your phone,hold the home button and the off button down till the apple symbol comes up. If that doesnt fix it , you need to do a restore in itunes by connecting to itunes , click on your phones name to the left, then click restore in the center of the screen and restore from backup.

    i'd switch to measures while moving the regions, it would make the work much easier.

  • QT - how do I stop movie playing when click HREF to new movie

    I want to be able to open a new QT movie at any time by clicking (HREF), but how do I stop or close the first movie? I have a text tract running on the first movie with captioning. At this point I have the new movie opening and the old movie playing in the background. I'm stumped.
    eMac   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    Give your FLVPlayback component an instance name and then,
    possibly from the navigation element that moves the user from that
    frame, tell that component instance to stop();
    Without a more complete description of your movie's structure
    its difficult to tell where, or in how many places, you should
    issue the stop() command.
