No Movie Controls on Quicktime Export?

When I export my presentation into quicktime, there is no control bar at the bottom.
How do I make that show up?
Thanks!

I'm a novice with QT Pro also, but I believe this is how to do it. Open the movie file. Go to "window>show movie properties" and then click the "presentation" tab. Towards the bottom, there's a drop-down menu where you can specify the movie controller type. I just chose the generic "movie controller", and it worked fine.
Then go to "file>export". From there you can choose your export settings. I did "movie to quicktime movie" and then clicked the "options" button, where I enabled "Fast Start", which allows the movie to start playing before it is entirely downloaded from the web.

How do I control the Quicktime Export settings for a project

I want to make a printed photo album in iPhoto for my parents Diamond Wedding Anniversary and so have set up a project with the appropriate template. I now want to create a preview quicktime movie of the book so far in order to send it to my brother and sister. I chose file>export but I get no options for changing the transitions, music or timing of the movie.
iPhoto help seems to imply that it will use the setting for the slide show but I have changed these with no effect. Am I out of luck and there is no option or have I missed something.
Thanks
Dave

You're not able to set different transitions by that method. However, if you follow Old Toad's Tutorials #6 thru Step 5 you can create a slideshow in iPhoto with the transitions of your choice, music, etc. and use the Share->Send to iDVD menu option. You don't have to use iDVD after that as the exported movie will be saved in your Movies folder. From there, if you've got Quicktime Pro, you can open the movie in QT Player and export in any number of formats and sizes. It would depend on how you plan to deliver the movie as to what export option you would use.
You could make an iWeb slideshow of the book like this demo page or create DVDs which can be played on TV sets by following Tutorial #6 thru to completion.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
Note: There's now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

In QuickTime 10 is there a way to hide the movie controls when paused?

Is there anyway to hide the movie controls in quicktime when pausing movies? It's quite irritating when trying to analyse video, especially when resolution is low, and can't move the controls out of the video window to see whole picture. There should be a way to move them outside the movie window?

Click the mouse while it is over the player window. The onscreen controls and title bar will disappear.

Clip Notes in CS4/Acrobat 9: exports transcript, no controls for QuickTime

When I use the Transcribe feature, then export my project to Clip Notes, it exports every transcribed word as a separate comment. There doesn't seem to be any way of suppressing that, and there doesn't seem to be a way of deleting a transcription either in PP or in Acrobat. The result is that the reviewer sees all these comments and has to fight with Acrobat to insert new comments. When I import the xfdf back into PP, I get the whole transcription loaded into markers along with the reviewer's comments. Unless I open every one, I can't tell what's what.
Is there at least a way of deleting the transcription in PP or Acrobat?
Also, if I export the video as QuickTime, there are no player controls in Acrobat. I only get player controls if I export as Windows Media. That means that some Mac users won't be able to use my Clip Notes exports. I've seen others asking about this, but no answers. Any ideas? I'm running this under Windows Vista Ultimate.

But I find it amazing that there's no way to delete the damn thing. Adobe made a big deal of transcription, but it seems they didn't regard it as more than a gimmick, since they did it half-baked. I think you're right that it's best not to use this "feature".
I don't know if it's necessarily half-baked, so much as it is an overly optimistic appraisal of the capability of the technology at this point in time. I mean, it does create words, and sometimes very interesting ones at that
What's interesting to me is that when I tested out the transcribe feature back when Adobe released the beta of Soundbooth CS4, it was MUCH more accurate--and I was testing it on the mixed, final soundtrack of a documentary captured from Betacam SP. The transcription wasn't anywhere near 100%, but it was actually usable. Now, it struggles on pristine audio from a single, clear voice track. Wish it wasn't so...
Anyway, you can stop the transcription from appearing in a Clip Notes export. Check out the following screenshot for the how-to:

Quicktime Export - Keynote, Streaming, and Movie Controller Settings

A few questions regarding qt export from keynote -
Is there a way to save quicktime export settings in keynote? Right now I'm exporting multiple files to custom sizes, and have to manually enter the size every time.
I'm exporting for streaming as well, and have to select it in the qt settings window every time.
also, is there a way to choose to show the movie controller when exporting a movie? Now I have to open the movie after export in qt pro and choose window>movie properties>presenation>movie controller type>movie controller (it defaults to none when exporting from keynote).
also, oddly enough, is seems that saving the movie after choosing to show the movie controller removes the streaming setting (movies wait to load completely before playing).
Thanks!

No answer to the main question...but the final question--
When you edit a QuickTime movie, even if the edit is merely to change the settings on the controller, it breaks fast-start. You should be able to fix it by doing a "Save As..." instead of saving the movie in place. But that doesn't seem to work in all versions of QuickTime; I have noticed that certain versions of QT-7 seem to break fast-start altogether.
There is an app out there called "Lillipot" that will fix this for you. Drag your movie to Lillipot, it does whatever magical conversion is necessary to make fast-start work again.

I have the same problem. I'm using Mavericks OS and latest iMovie. Both downloaded last week. I save the movie into File (as directed) and QuickTime
will not open. I'm then directed to a page of formats which are supposed to be supported on which is .mp4. Any tips?

Cannot load movie with subtitles and export in QuickTime 10 / Os X Lion

Since Os X Lion, when trying to load a movie (DivX) in QuickTime 10 at the same time that the related subtitles file (.srt) is in the same folder as the movie, QT 10 suggests to use QT 7. QT 10 cannot load the movie with subtitles (in Snow Leopard everything was OK). Q& 7 is useless too because it cannot export movies to another format.
Anybody has a solution for this? Thanks for your help!

I do this because Perian don't work with QT10 on Mac OS X Lion:
-Try to open .avi movie with QT 10;
-OS X ask you to open on QT 7;
-Donwload QT 7 and install it. It will be installed on "Utilities";
-Download Perian but don't install it;
-Mount Perian, and click "Show Package Contents"
-Go to "Contents"->"Resources"->"Components"->"CoreAudio" and copy to Desktop "A52Codec.zip" and unzip it;
-Go to"Contents"->"Resources"->"Components" and copy to Desktop "Perian.zip" and unzip it;
-Go to "Contents"->"Resources"->"Components"->"CoreAudio"->Quicktime" and copy to Desktop "AC3MovieImport.zip" and unzip it;
-Then copy all packages with ".component" extention to /Library/Quicktime/;
-Then you can run all movies on QT 7.
Or,
-Install MPlayerX;
Or,
-Install VLC;
Or,

When I try to export with Quicktime, the iMovie (9) runs for a few minutes and I then get this message:The movie could not be exported because an error occurred. (-2125)

When I try to export an iMovie (9) to quicktime, the iMovie runs for a few minutes and I then get the message: The movie could not be exported because an error occurred. (-2125) What can I do to correct this?

Trash your preferences. Trash your project render files. Switch off background rendering. Export without using the computer for anything else.
Oh, and if you're using 10.9 switch off App Nap.

Help!--export error Flash MX mov's to Quicktime mov's

Hey there,
I normally convert Flash Mx 2004 mov's to normal mov's using Quicktime Pro.
Now, I get an error with the "Export Controller". It usually stops at about %20 through.
The Flash mov's play fine, but won't export.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
-Matt

Yeah, I did export a SWF
version 5
enabled flash in Quicktime
and it (the SWF) opens in Quicktime Pro, plays just fine, but then when I try to convert it to a MOV., the exporter crashes.
I can make a SWF movie into a MOV, right?
I'm trying to make a cartoon I made in Flash a MOV file I can upload to Youtube and other video sites.
Am I missing something?
Thanks for your continuing help, sir!

Keynote movies stutter badly once exported to QuickTime

My Keynote presentation features a 2 minute movie. When I export the presentation to QuickTime, although the slides work fine, the movie stutters badly. To be specific, the movie audio is fine, but the visuals stutter badly.
Any workaround for this? Thanks!

I've been having problems in iMovie and Quicktime both. Whenever I used a song from iTunes in an iMovie, I would get stuttered playback. Many others experienced problems with stuttering video when they had extracted audio. Your particular problem could be many things. It could be your graphics card is too small to handle this. If you are running OS X tiger and have virex installed, then virex is using most of your CPU processing power (Do a search on Tiger and Virex to get the uninstaller). Finally you could be having problems with quicktime 7.0.3. If that is the case, then you can just reinstall 7.0.1 and everything should work fine. Or it could be something else. Hope some of this helps.
Thanks,
Clint

Exporting I-movie file to Quicktime

Hi, when I try converting an i-movie file to quicktime on a external Hardrive or when trying to drag a quicktime file between external hardrives I get an error code -36 message. Can anyone share with me what this is about. I also get a message saying "you cannot copy the item "icon" because the name is too long or includes characters that the disk cannot display.

It seems as your external hard drive is formatted for PC.

Can scroll wheel be stopped in Quicktime export?

I make Keynote presentations for my students to run through with hyperlinks (buttons) as a means to navigate. I export to Quicktime, so that I don't have to rely on Keynote being on their computers.
Yet, Keynote or Quicktime gives one the ability to use the scroll wheel on the mouse to move through the Quicktime as if the user were using a slider bar, like at the bottom of Quicktime movies. I don't want this to be possible for those that use my exports of Keynote. Is there any option for me to disable the scroll effect? When I used Powerpoint, I used to check the "Kiosk" mode, and keyboard arrows would be disabled, and navigation could only happen by using links and buttons I'd created. Is there something similar in Keynote?

I know this can't be done from Keynote...you'd need to ask in the Quicktime forum, or do a google search and see if there's some tag that can be added to a QT movie that doesn't allow for any control. I say this because I've even had the scroll wheel work on embedded QT movies on a web site, so it's a QT thing, not a Keynote thing.

Quicktime Export causing Out of Sync Audio?

I'm trying to export a self contained Quicktime movie from my timeline, and every time I try, the audio ends up being out of sync. What am I doing wrong?
The audio is set to just the defaults, 16 bit, 48khz.
Sequence settings: HDV1080p30
When I bring the final exported movie back into FCP, it plays out of sync.
Exporting through the Share feature to bluRay resulted in perfect sync audio, so I'm at a loss as to why this isn't working.
Please help!

Allright, since nobody out there seems to have the answer - I'm going to share what I discovered so that the next person will actually get an answer without having to spend hours and hours finding it in other forums. Here goes:
Problem: Audio plays in sync on the timeline, an export from the timeline through Share to bluRay results in correctly synced audio; but a Quicktime Export with current settings results in a final movie where audio is out of sync with the video.
Solutions: I found two solutions to this problem:
1- When exporting to Quicktime Movie, check "recompress all frames". This solution had mixed reviews, with lots of people saying you should never do this, as it will reduce the quality of your final output; while others said the reduction in quality was not noticeable to the naked eye. I guess you can try it and be the judge.
2- In your sequence settings, change the compression setting to Apple Pro Res. This is the setting I decided to go with, as I'm currently awaiting the 10 hour render.
I did do a quick and dirty test on the ProRes option, where it appeared to work. Since the audio is correctly synced in the beginning of the video and then slowly falls out of sync (obviously the 30p to 29.97 problem), I had to run a test using my entire sequence. If you run a test on a 2 minute sequence, it will appear to be correct, because it is a slow falling out of sync issue - the problems occur later in your project (just fyi). Here is what I did (in case you want to try it on your project):
I created a new sequence and then changed the compression setting from HDV1080-30p to Apple Pro Res 422. I dragged my sequences into this sequence (so they were nested). I unlinked the audio and then selected about a 20 second area from about 3/4 of the way through the project. I sliced this section and then removed all the video before and after (so it would speed up render time and only render black, but I would still be able to see if the audio synced up later - I hope that makes sense - this made my export time only 12 minutes). After it exported, I reimported the movie, found the little 20 second area, and it was correctly synced. So, now I am exporting the whole thing. I sincerely hope this works. I don't have lots of 10 hour blocks just lyin' around!
Since my audio issue was most likely due to the fact that I captured and edited in 1080 30p, I believe it must be a bug in FCP that exports the Quicktime movie in 29.97 regardless of whatever your sequence settings are (believe me, I tried to change it to 1080-30p and it didn't work). That is why I think the Apple Pro Res option works, but it involves a total re-render of your project. This is also why I believe it plays fine in the timeline, because my timeline was set to 30p. Again, I also believe that is why my export to BluRay through Share resulted in correctly synced audio - the bluRay export I believe uses the Pro Res codec (which, by the way, took 19 hours).
Wish Apple would fix this bug.

Unable to find rotate controls in Quicktime Pro 7.6 for Windows

I have a number of Quicktime movies that I have taken with my digital camera. A number of them have been shot in portrait orientation instead of landscape so I bought Quicktime Pro in order to rotate them. Unfortunately I cannot find the controls to do so. I have followed the instructions in the manual:
To resize or rotate a QuickTime movie:
1 In QuickTime Player, choose Window > Show Movie Properties.
2 In the Properties window, select a video track and click Visual Settings.
3 To resize the movie, type new numbers in the Current Size fields.
To keep the same height-to-width proportions, select Preserve Aspect Ratio.
4 To rotate the movie, click one of the rotate buttons.
but when I open the Show Movie Properties window and select a video track there is no "Visual Settings" box to select and so I cannot access the resize or rotate controls.
Any advice anyone?

It's okay I've found them now.
If anyone else has this problem, you have to select the row at the top of properties that says "video track" rather than the one with the filename in order to get the visual settings tab and make sure that you have the box to the left of the row checked otherwise you won't be able to see the results.

Quicktime Export taking a long time

I rendered a project. Took 4 hours. Quicktime Export took the same after the render. Did NOT export self-contained. Usually a Quicktime Export is a matter of minutes, not hours.

I've had a similar problem before. (after render) I ask it to export as a reference movie, but it still takes forever. However, when I check the supposed reference file, it turns out that it's self contained (you can tell by the size). So, check the file that was exported...if it's huge then that's a good indicator that FCP didn't recognize the referenced video command. Maybe it's time to trash preferences or some other kind of troubleshooting? Then again, this problem has been random for me, happening on some projects but not others. --David
