Option to Export as 720 or 1080 is drained?

Im editing HD clips in iMovie 11 but when I go to Share>Export Movie, the 720P or 1080P options are usually drained. Sometimes 720P is available. I know if I export as Quicktime I can get around this usually but I still dont know what is causing this. Framerate is 30FPS. The flm is from a GoPro.

Thanks Steve - very helpful and much appreciated.
I am trying to stream the final file to my television over DLNA.
The TV accepts a number of formats, including those as follows:
.avi (Divx3.11/4.x/5.1/6.0) 1920x1080
.avi (XviD) 1920x1080
.avi (H.264 BP/MP/HP) 1920x1080
.avi (MPEG4 SP/ASP) 1920x1080
.mpg (MPEG1) 1920x1080
.mpg (MPEG2) 1920x1080
.mpg (H.264) 1920x1080
.mp4 (H.264 BP/MP/HP) 1920x1080
.mp4 (MPEG4 SP/ASP) 1920x1080
.mp4 (XVID) 1920x1080
Plus an array of other formats for .mkv, .asf, .wmv, .3gp, .vro, .ts, .tp, .trp
Whilst I could encode at 1920x1080, my Wi-Fi struggles a bit with this, so I will probably take it down to 1280x720.
Any suggestions much appreciated.,
Will certainly take a look at your book.  I bought the "Classroom In A Book" by Adobe when I got the software and am amazed at how little detail is in it.
Thanks again
Peter.

  • Source Video is 1080 but Export Option Brings it to 720?

    I am trying to export an edited movie, using the Share > Master File (default), but when I do this, it seems to change the movie file from 1920x1080 @ 23.98 fps to 1280x720 @ 59.94 fps.  I've looked around the forums and on general internet searches and can't seem to find a solution.  I've attached 2 screen shots to show the original file as it was imported and edited (1080 @ 23.98fps) and then how it is shown when I try to export (720 @ 59.94fps). 
    I've also gone through with the export think maybe it was a glitch and it did actually convert the video to 720 @ 59.94.
    Somewhat of a newbie to Final Cur Pro X, so excuse my potential ignorance here, but how can I make sure to export as intended in 1080 @ 23.98?  Thank you for any help you can provide.
    Original video size as imported and while editing:
    Export box dialog screen for the same video showing different:

    Russ, that solution seems to have done the trick!  I created a new project within that same event, made sure to select to set the resolution/frame rate to the 1st clip (which was already the default sleceted setting), and saw that it was 1080/23.98.  Then went to share and saw it stayed at 1080/23.98 this time.
    I assumed this would have automatically adjusted to the first clip (since that was what my settings were anyway - set to 1st clip), but evidently it did not.  It seems weird that it would avoid my clips source resolution snd frame rate settings and keep a pre-determined, default value for this.
    Either way, it looks like this has resolved my issue.  In addition to directly importing a clip to start a project, I should start the project 1st and make sure the resolution/frame rate settings are what I want them to be, then import the files - thank you very much!

  • G5 Dual 2 GHz won't smoothly play 720 or 1080 HD Quicktime Trailers

    Dual Processor Power Mac G5 2 GHz with 4 GB of RAM
    I could have sworn that my G5 used to be able to play all levels of HD movies smoothly as anything sometime during normal Tiger usage.
    Then one day, I noticed my G5 when on Tiger would stutter playing anything about 480.
    I thought the upgrade to Leopard would fix this. But just today I upgraded to 10.5.3 on this G5 (I used the upgrade option on the install DVD to upgrade from Tiger) and it STILL won't play HD trailers 720 or 1080 smoothly.
    is this supposed to be? Do I not have the minimum requirements to watch those kinds of resolutions anymore?
    I know this machine is 4 years old now, but seriously? That seems crazy to me.
    Does anyone else have this configuration and see similar or different behavior?
    thank you

    at least I finally hear of someone else w/ the same issue
    your machine should, in my opinion, completely be able to play HD quicktime movies.
    the funny thing for me is that once, I had 10.5.1 (or even 10.5.2) on a FW drive, and I COULD play them smoothly when booted from it
    and now that I have 10.5.3......I can't

  • New Apple TV starts as 720 not 1080?

    Hi
    I have just bought a new Apple TV directly from Apple.
    I am connecting to a Sony Bravia TV, but when connecting it reports resolution as 720, not 1080. I have tried a different cable, but no joy.
    I also have BT Vision through another AV channel and will switch ports / cables if I have to, but I am hoping you will tell me I am missing something simple :-) Please?

    Not what I was hoping to hear, but at least I know now!
    Thanks for your help

  • No option to export as AVI?

    Hi,
    I am having problems with AME CS6 - having upgraded from 5.5. Initially running AME CS6 was a nightmare and it hung on loading the QuickTimeEncoder - the best fix for which was reply 15 (Seth) here: http://forums.adobe.com/message/4540908 - thank you so much.
    Now, however, I have no option to export as AVI - I had to completely reinstall and then overcome a "not activated" issue to get more export options than just H264 and FLV - once I did that and got a more comprehensive export list, it still omits AVI - has it been dropped as a standard? I doubt it, but I am at a loss - any help would be appreciated!
    Thanks

    Ah, I had not made that connection. I have known export options like wmv from my mac in the past, but have recently switched to AME. For backwards compatibility, where windows can export dv, mov etc which are mac compatible, I feel the same should have been true for mac! For my colleagues with windows machines locked down by admin control who cannot install any decent encoders, I need to export as mpeg1 (yes 1 of all things) or avi for powerpoint purposes! At a bit of a loss now what to do to get my .mov files out to windows users with a limited system - them changing their system is not an option!

  • I need to export Quicktime files using the PhotoJPEG, MJPEG-A, or DV codec.  Is this possible in Final Cut Pro X?  In the options under export I don't see any of these available.

    I need to export Quicktime files using the PhotoJPEG, MJPEG-A, or DV codec.  Is this possible in Final Cut Pro X?  In the options under export I don't see any of these available.  I'm a newbie to this so any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I'm importing .MOV files from my Canon 5Dmk2 at 1080p.  So should I just export using a different codec and then use Compressor or MPEG Streamclip to convert to an MJPEG-A or PhotoJPEG codec?

  • Installed LR 3.2, and export does not show any options for exporting to Smugmug, Facebook etc

    I fresh installed LR 3.2 on a Windows 7 computer to try out tethering (which worked fine), but then tried to export the photos, but I don't have any options for exporting to non-harddrive based locations. The "export to" drop down at the top of the export page only has "hard drive" in it. The plugin manager says that plugins for SmugMug, Facebook, etc are all enabled.
    Anyone have any ideas?
    Thanks!
    Mike

    I found too that the publishing services work differently than the plug-ins.  Not as intuitive, but work well just the same,  For me I had to do the "set-up" for the Facebook publishing service a couple of times.  I think this may have more to do with the Facebook security settings than with LR.

    No, not in the Photos app. You would need to purchase/download a phot editing app for that.

  • Expanded options for exporting comments to Excel?

    The Create Comment Summary Action, available through the Actions Exchange at adobeusers.com, allows users to export comments from pdf(s) to Excel-readable CSV format: http://acrobatusers.com/actions-exchange/create-comment-summary
    This is a great tool, but could be improved by grouping actions related to the same comment on single rows, rather than create a new row for each action. Does anyone have any ideas as to how this could be achieved? See example scenario below:
    Comments are made in a pdf:
    Create Comment Summary Action tool generates the following in Excel:
    The information is accurate, but isn't very helpful for large documents with many comments because there is no way to group actions by comment and determine which have been addressed and how they were responded to. In other words, responses and actions are not linked to the original comment.
    Ideally, there would be an option to export the comments to a format similar to this:
    Responses and actions are on the same row as the original comment, which allows for easy sorting and comprehension. Obviously there would be additional details to think through, but is this possible?
    Thanks!

    I hope someone answers this since I want to do the same thing with my form data.

  • Newbie here: best sizing option while exporting for print?

    What is an ideal/standard option for exporting and sizing a photo for print when you don't know if they will print 4x6, 5x7 or 8x10?  Is there a good option that will consider anything?  Bottom line: best sizing option while exporting?  Thanks

    If you don't know the size that someone will print at, then you don't resize at all. Leave the Resize to Fit box unchecked in the Image Sizing portion of the Export dialog box  Let the person doing the printing do the resizing (if necessary)

  • Not getting an option of exporting in mpeg 4 format? AVI file the size of the file is extremely huge

    Hi,
    I am not getting an option of exporting in mpeg 4 format? Infact when I am rendering in AVI file the size of the file is extremely huge. Please can somebody help me in reducing the file size & exporting in MPEG4 format.

    You need to learn about encoding. The default file type is Lossless for a reason. If you are using Ray-tracing and you have a supported Cuda card you must use the Adobe Render Cue. If you are not using Ray-traced rendering then you should be using the Adobe Media Encoder.
    This will get you started: Basic Workflow, the last section is on rendering.

  • No option to export sound with quicktime

    When i'm trying to export a video clip of various formats, all i'll get is the video, no audio. Upon investigation there is no option to export sound (the half of the settings is unclickable). I do have a sound card with correct drivers installed, and under quicktime preferances the correct device is selected. However, when i am playing a "QUICKTIME MOVIE" I can export with audio. Is there some sort of codec needed, or is there a setting i can change?

    QuickTime Pro doesn't export audio from "muxed" formats (like MPEG 1 or 2 and Flash).
    Use MPEG Streamclip (free) for your .mpg files.

  • How do you get to the options for export settings with the new quicktime?

    I'm having trouble with the new quicktime pro. I'm trying to export a video with specific settings when exporting. It seems that in this version of quicktime you export and the only options i get is how to format : for ipad/pod/phone or 480p which is not what I want I need to change the settings to make my video 480x360 and fast start for web. can someone help

    How do you get to the options for export settings with the new quicktime?
    You don't Use QT 7 "Pro", GarageBand, a video editor app, or a third-party app like MPEG Streamclip all of which can access user conversion settings.

    I have Final Cut Studio Academic Edition and so do various other friends I have.

    ///It depends which version of FCP you have. When the latest version FCP 5 was introduced, they took away the MPEG2 option. With FCP you have to use Compressor, which caused me a certain amount of frustration.
    If you have an earlier version of FCP, not sure about the exact number, because I am relatively new at this, but if you have a registerd copy of Studio DVD Pro installed, you will be have the MPEG2 option.
    If you have an earlier verision of FCP, and you do not have the MPEG2 option, you may want to reinstall Studio DVD Pro.

    I'm guessing here, but I would suggest using Spotlight to find any preferences for final cut pro and trashing them, plus the application itself. You might even want to trash the receipts for FCP as well.
