Problem importing quicktime "screen recording"... Please Help.

I've made a screen recording using the "screen recording" feature on the new quicktime 10.0. I would like to edit this video file in FCP but I cannot get it imported into my project. I've tried to convert this file using Quicktime pro 7.6.3 export but I can't seem to get it right.... Any help here is appreciated.

I believe that QT feature records in h.264.
You will need to convert it to an appropriate editing format
Try using MPEG Streamclip

Problem with touch screen. Please help!!!

Ok I bought an iPad about a month ago now. At first it worked perfectly, runs apps smoothly, etc. But then something happened to the touch screen, it just randomly like pressed itself, it went into apps on its own and zoom in and out while on safari just randomly. For about 3 weeks this issue disappeared, but now it happens again but more constantly and for more time please help. I think this video will explain my issue more clearly. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e1qyvHV43yg Please I just don't want this issue anymore. Any help will be appreciated.

OK...so it seems that many iPad owners have the same issue with the screen "self registering touches". You'll see multiple posts on the forums from "self touching" to "self registering" to "freaking out".
Well, I also have this annoying problem.
Trust me when I say that cleaning the screen, resets, charging, deleting apps, static, and so on haven't anything to do with causing or resolving this issue.
Here is a little tip to show you what is actually going on. Download a free app that shows you "screen touches". Harbor Master is one that I've heard of that led me to this...but I prefer to use that pocket pond app...only because I can just sit back and watch without having to move boats around.
...When you notice the problem, open up the app. I've noticed on mine that it only self registers touches along the side. Exact location is (when holding iPad in landscape position, home button on left) along the top of the screen...from top middle to the top right corner.
I have called Apple...the tech was polite and tried to help. ...But the only suggestions were to reset (as i've already done) then if that didn't work I was to do a reload while sync'd. He stated that if none of that worked then to take it to the store...
Since I am in Florida for the month and the nearest Apple store is 6hrs away...I will wait until I go back home HI and visit a store that is close by.

Problem importing premier pro sequence. please help

I have been attempting for awhile now to import a 45 min long rendered sequence from premier pro into encore but whenever i do so, the second the sequence is imported, the program stops responding.
how can i fix this?

Can you please give your system specs?
In particular, how many physical HDD you have as well as memory. OS, CPU etc.
Also - what are the scratch disc settings in Premiere?
Finally - what is the video type - SD? HD?
Please give as many details as possible as it sounds like your system is going into overdrive.

When I import Quicktime screen recording there's a red tinge on the whole file

The .mov file imports perfectly on iMovie 9.0.9. This issue is only in the new iMovie 10.0.1
When I play the .mov file on quicktime, everything is okay. This is a specific iMovie 10.0.1 issue.

That red exclamation point can mean either that the image on the cover is below the resolution limit that Apple has set for photos to make good prints or that there is missing text in a text box or there's some text that has overflowed the text box.
The resolution limit that is set in iPhoto for photos is 110 dpi, i.e. the PrintWarningImageDPI value in this screenshot of iPhoto's preference file:
Click to view full size
It's not an absolute thing. Many have reported getting books that had photos with the low resolution warning indicator and it was perfectly satisfactory.
But check to see if it's an image or text warning.

Quicktime Screen Recorder Movie Won't Import to iMove

I recorded a Skype interview using Quicktime Screen Recorder and want to import it into iMovie for some quick edits before posting online. However, iMovie says it doesn't support the movie. I've tried exporting it via Quicktime to iTunes and other iPad & Apple TV formats but the import process still isn't working. What am I missing? iMovie used to be able to do this in Snow Leopard, but now that I'm all up to date with the newest iMovie and Yosemite OS I can't do it anymore? Please help!

I wish I knew how to tell you that. Where would I see that info?
I use the older v0.7.50 version of MediaInfo. E.g., here are the specs for the 1880x1800 upscaled video clip I made:
And these are the specs for the original screen recording before upscaling:
Unfortunately, I had to use QT 7 Pro to upscale which adds an additional layer codec settings. Would normally prefer to examine a sample problem file itself and test it on my own system in a known environment. Am basically trying to determine if there is anything obviously suspect about your file or whether it is more likely that your iMovie install is bad. For instance, you said that such movies imported correctly under Snow Leopard but did not indicate if the problem file will import to the older system or will import under Yosemite on a different platform if either/both options are available to you.

I cannot see the Vidoe displayed on the screen, only hear the sound. I am missing a component? Compressor, etc. I just downloaded the latest version of Quicktime for Microsoft, please help.

I am not able to view my video taken with a memory card only the sound? I am missing a component? Compressor, etc. I just downloaded the latest version of Quicktime for Microsoft, please help
I can see it on Windows Media? Need help on this.

It says SEDG 720X480 2:1 Mono. Video came from Sd memory card taken with a Samsung Video Camera.
Strangely enough, as a FourCC, SEDG is defined as "MPEG-4 hardware and software codec used in Samsung digital video products." Not a Windows or Samsung camcorder user but THIS WEB PAGE may be of some assistance.
Also I will need to view a CD recorded by the same camera (DVD-RW) file extensions are VIDEO_RM.BUP
VIDEO_TS.IFO, VIDEO_TS.VOB, SAMSUNG.IFO So far these files don't open even with Windows Media.
I don't know what to do to be able to open up these files save them on my Hard drive and then be able to upload them to YouTube. Any Ideas?
IFO files tell how the video content is segmented and where the video data is located. BUP files contain back-up IFO information. VOB files contain actual multipled audio/video data. A DVD formatted to play in a commercial DVD player normally contains a series of files named "VTS##_#.VOB" where ## refers to the "title" series and "_#" (where # is not a zero) refers to the order in which the video title file data is played.
Again, I am neither a Windows user nor an athority on Samsung VIDEO_RM folder structures. However, if your disc contains both a VIDEO_RM and VIDEO_TS folder, then I would normally assume the VIDEO_RM folder is present for legacy purposes and/or to provide information about the refording device while the VIDEO_TS folder actually contains the video object (VOB) file data. In any case, as I am not familiar with what software is available for muxed MPEG-2/AC3 editing/conversion on a Windows platform, I would try viewing the VOB files in an application like MPEG Streamclip (free). If you can play the Audio and video content (be sure to read the MPEG Streamclip requirements regarding codec installation), then you can edit (merge and/or trim) the raw data and convert it to a format compatible for YouTube uploading. (I.e., MPEG Streamclip is commonly used on the Mac for this type of work flow and the app is also available for Windows use.)

When using quicktime screen recorder, the recording changes colors

Please help me out!! So I've had my macbook air for a while now and I've used the quicktime screen recorder multipul times, but latley something changed. When I go to record my screen everything works fine, and once its finished and I've saved it it's still normal. But once I go to import it into imovie the entire recording turns red, I can still see the recording but everything is just red! Everywhere else the recording looks fine, but its only when I try to put it into imovie that it changes colors. Its never done this before and all of my past screen recordings work fine.
Does anyone know what I can do to fix it?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you

Hello meaganmarie,
I am assuming you have quicktime up to date (10.3)
When recording a game window,
- select quicktime
- go to file > New Movie Recording
- select your game window like a rectangular marquee selection (drag and make a rectangle filling only your game window
- stop when done and save
This way the endtire screen (including youe desktop) won't be seen, just your selected game window.
Regards,

Quicktime screen recording error.

Hey, I was wondering if there is a fix for Quicktime screen recording, because almost everytime I use screen recording, Quicktime crashes within two minutes. Before mountain lion quicktime was fine, but now the screen recording doesn't work, because of a "kernal" error. If anyone can help, that would be awesome.

Not being able to hear application audio on quicktime screen recording when using headset

Can someone tell me how to still hear the computer audio (like the application sound) on while using quicktime screen recording when using headset?
Someone help me please or tell me another application to do this with.

hi paula
your problem could be hardware/software. lets hope its software issue first and i'd like you to do these:
if you have personal files on volume c, copy/backup them. shut down your computer, press one key recover button to perform clean windows installation. then check if the issue still persists.
if you don,t want to use okr, you can use windows restore to restore your computer to previous restore points but if it's windows/virus issue, it may not help.

Editing QuickTime Screen Recording in After Effects CS5

Hi,
I'm doing a project that is based around using footage from Google street view. I've collected my footage at the highest quality setting using QuickTime screen recording and imported it into AfterEffects CS5. However, when I render my clip (only 20 seconds at this stage) even at Best Quality settings the quality was drastically reduced from looking almost HD to soft around the edges. Even selecting 'Lossless', which is less than ideal, was not much better.
Would really appreciate some advice!!
Thanks,
Richard.

QuickTime Screen Recorder Very Slow in Mountain Lion

Is anyone else having problems with the QuickTime screen recorder in Mountain Lion vs in Snow Leopard? I remember it being light in Snow Leopard, but now, it hogs CPU and GPU (I think) cycles. Most of the time, what I'm trying to record (even just Safari or Finder windows) slows down because of it. Is there a fix for this? My computer is perfectly capable of running Mountain Lion and is much more powerful than my older Mac, which could use the screen recorder just fine in Snow Leopard.
I've also noticed that, if you choose to record audio from a mic, it doesn't start recording video until you make a detectable sound. I can tell by the bitrate meter it shows. This is stupid in my opinion... It should just start when I tell it to.

File a bug report with Apple. Aside from that, I can't help.

Quicktime Screen Recording - Higher quality missing

Everywhere I've read that Quicktime screen recording has a medium and a higher quality setting, but when I try to do a screen recording, it doesn't give me any quality options. It just has options for the microphone. See the attached photo.
How can I get it to give me an option for high quality screen recording? The default seems to be lower quality, which I can't use. Thanks in advance for any help!!

I have the same question, and have looked at the answers here. I am not trying to answer your question, just add to it.
I have used snapz pro x and find that I like that way quicktime displays whats on your screen with the same amount of lag that will be in the finished video, while snapz does not. surely there is a way, deep in preferences or maybe even in terminal, that will enable me to take higher quality images in my screen recordings. I find the audio is fine but the image is what I have a problem with. I dont have the 100+ dollars to spend on other screen recording software, and would really appreciate some help.
thanks,

Laggy Quicktime screen recording

I am trying to record my league of legends gameplay using Quicktime Screen Recorder. I bought the highest specced new iMac possible so i don't see why it is so laggy. I hope Apple can make an update for this and get it fixed because i would really like to use this program...
here are my specs
Processor 3.2 GHz Intel Core i5
Memory 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
Graphics NVIDIA GeForce GTX 675MX 1024 MB
Software OS X 10.8.3 (12D78)
I have 805 gb free out of 999.35 so....

Once you have opened a new Screen Recording (ie. QuickTime player, file, New Screen Recording) go to the screen record (black box), hit the dropdown arrow (white down arrow next to the record button) and select Medium Quality. This in my opinion doesn't change the actual quality of the recording, but gets rid of the annoying lag spots. Please tell me if this helped.

Quicktime screen recording freeze up

I recently upade my snow leapard to the new Lion for the quicktime screen record and everytime I want to do a screen record it keeps froze up when I want to record. Then it takes time like when to finish it won't finish i have to turn the computer off and restarted it again. So I don't know what to do. So when i do record my hard drive makes noise when i do record. It did let me record only three but still it stops or I see a blink and it stop recording. So I just need help.
Thanks

Hey Musiclover99,
Thanks for the question. I understand you are experiencing some performance issues with your MacBook Pro. I’d like to ask you a few questions to see if we can isolate this issue further.
First, it sounds like you are trying to record your screen. Do you have a lot of applications running while attempting to record your screen, or an application that requires a lot of memory? Does the issue persist if you attempt to screen record something else?
You can use the steps in these resources to help isolate the issue:
