Hallo! I want to put a video(wich i can see with Quick time player) on my ipod and for that I tried to import it to itunes but when i try too import it it comes an error wich says it is an unknown error and on the end (-50. I dont know what that means. maybe I am doing something wrong. please somebody explain me how I can import videos to itunes.

Could be a number of things but most likely if it works on your local machine but not on the server, it's a pathing issue. So you have all your flash related files in the same folder, correct? But are they all in the same folder as the web page? They do not have to be, any of the Flash related files can be in whatever folders you want, just remember to path the elements relative to the Web page, NOT the physical location of the Flash file. From an old post:
Pathing issues
Almost always when it works on the local machine and not the server, it's a pathing problem.
You can put your Flash related files in whatever folders you want, they do not have to be in the root. But if sticking them in there worked, then you know that the issue was a pathing problem.
Just remember that paths become relative to the Web page on which those Flash files are used. So for example, if your .swf is in the flash/data folder and you use that .swf on a Web page in the root, you are in effect, removing that .swf from flash/data and putting it in root. So if the .swf is loading any related files (xml, etc), the path used inside the .swf to the .xml file has to be relative to it's new location in root and back down into flash/data. This is true even though when testing the .swf by itself, it can be inside flash/data and work just fine, since relative to it's location, the path is just fine, they are in the same folder. But if that same path is used when the .swf is placed on a page two folder levels up, the relative path has changed, the old "same folder" path will not work.
So just be sure that you use addresses relative to the final Web page locations (not physical file locations) and you can put the files wherever you want.

New problem importing photos videos

since I upgraded my iphone 5 to ios7, I having a problem importing photos and videos to my pc? I have Windows 7. Has anyone else had this issue and been able to resolve it?

Problems importing PPT videos into iMovie

Hello -
I consider myself a pretty computer literate person, but I'm afraid I'm stumped with my current problem.
I need to import a Power Point Presentation into iMovie so I can record video of myself speaking over the presentation. I found many bits of helpful advice about how to do this. Apparently, the steps should be as follows:
1) Time out your PPT presentation as needed.
2) Save the PPT presentation as a movie (MOV) file.
3) Convert the file into a format iMovie can read with a converter like MPEG Streamclip or MacX Free iMovie Video Converter.
4) Import the new file into iMovie.
All sounds good, but I have a problem with step 3. After the file has been converted, the resulting video cuts off the first slide and the time it should have taken. This happens with both the converters (listed above) I tried. So, I thought I would just add some time to the PPT presentation and it would be ok, but the same things happens even when I add a minute at the beginning of the video.
I checked the original PPT video file and it looks to be the correct lenght, but the converted versions cut off the beginning of the video.
This is quite odd and I'm stumped. Any ideas would be very welcome.
Thanks!
Kyle

Problems Importing Complete Video in DVD Studio Pro

I have video that I edited in Final Cut Pro and exported as a QuickTime file (.mov), with chapter markers. I checked the video in QuickTime player and all my chapter markers were present, and the entire video played through the end. The whole movie is 52 minutes in length. However, two problems have arisen once the video was imported into DVD Studio Pro.
1. All my chapter markers disappeared.
2. The entire audio track is present and will play through the end of the movie, but the video cuts off more than 6 minutes before the end of the movie.
I have tried several options to get this video to import correctly. Sometimes the chapter markers remain, but I can never get the video track to import completely. I would greatly appreciate any advice, as this has become very frustrating. Thank you.

Since my last post, I have tried importing a couple different versions of the video file. One attempt included chopping the video file into 2 parts and exporting them two separate .mov files from FCP. I then tried to insert them into the track editor as separate entities that played back-to-back. This led me to the discovery that DVDSP will not let me have a video track that plays any longer than 00:45:58:21. Why this is, I do not know, but I am convinced this problem lies within DVDSP, not in the video file. Is there a setting somewhere that limits the length of a video?

Problem importing home video into iTunes for ipod touch

I recorded my son's marching band concert on a Flip Video camera. I have tried importing it various ways (directly from flip, importing to windows media player, burning it to dvd, putting the file directly into the itunes library folder) but every time I try to either drag and drop or add file to library, nothing happens. Nada. It just doesn't appear. Is there a way to do this?

The file must be an mpeg4 video meeting these standards:
H.264 video, up to 1.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Low-Complexity version of the H.264 Baseline Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats;
H.264 video, up to 2.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Baseline Profile up to Level 3.0 with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats;
MPEG-4 video, up to 2.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Simple Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats

Problem importing pictures & videos

I had taken some video this past weekend and need to send to someone. I tried to email it right from my phone but it said the file is too large. So I plugged my phone in to my computer because I figured I would just import all of my pic & videos and send what I needed straight from my computer. Unfortunately, my computer didn't import all of my pictures & videos. Any idea why? I tried to unplug the USB cord and try it again but it isn't evening opening up the option to import pictures. Help please!

Well lets see. If you take a video and its a HD setting it is quite large. However all is not lost. I use GMail to send high quality vudeo and photos. Please remember many isp's will not accept a file in excess of 10 MB so even if you can send it does not mean the file exceeds message will not be sent.
I don't own your make of phone but my friend has one, he hooks it via the usb cable that came with the phone to his computer and its set for usb mass storage. It shows up as another drive letter when connected.
his photos are in a file called DCIM and he has another folder called pictures which has his photos. There is also videos on this internal memory of which he transfers to his home computer.
You might want to get a file browser like Astro in the Google Play Store to check all the folders for your photo and videos.
Good Luck
Oh sometimes you need to change the usb pirt on your computer to try and connect again for it to be found.

I am having a problem importing MP4 video into Premier Elements 11.

When I try to edit a video the highlights are turning black/grey and other colours are turning white or grey making the video look like a negative . . . sometimes the colour goes completely but not always. Also, when this happens the whole thing freezes. I tried running the videos on QuickTime and they run okay which makes me think it's not the graphics card but Adobe Elements that's the problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

>think it's not the graphics card but Adobe Elements that's the problem
•What is your exact brand/model graphics adapter (ATI or nVidia or ???)
•What is your exact graphics adapter driver version?
•Have you gone to the vendor web site to check for a newer driver?
•For Windows, do NOT rely on Windows Update to have current driver information

Problems importing .mov video from a zoom q3HD shot at 1280x720, H.264

FCP wont allow me to import my file. I use the zoom q3HD and shot @ 1280 x 720.
The codecs are h.264, Linear PCM.
Can anyone help me.
I was told first I have to convert to PRO RES to edit as h.264 is bad for this...
any help would be huge!
Its a wedding.
Thanks

Specifically, the file is 1280 x 720- Dimensions
Codecs: H.264, Linear PCM
2 audio channels
60 Frames per second
.MOV
I was able to load directly from the same camera without a problem :
1920 x 1080
H.2c4, Linear PCM
2 audio channels
30 frames per second.
.MOV
So, i guess the camera is supported but just not at 60 frames per second settings? ? ?
any good conversion ideas? and why the highest hd setting imports ok?

Problems importing VHS video via Canopus ADVC110

OK, I can't figure out how best to do this. I picked up a Canopus ADVC110 converter box to aid in digitizing a stack of VHS tapes. Yesterday I performed a short (1 minute) trial run and was unsatisfied with the results.
I imported the footage into iMovie '08, then tried burning a DVD of the clip iDVD. The result looked noticeably worse than the original tape. I'd settle for near quality, but this showed heavy compression, darker and grainier image, etc. I tried burning both "medium" and "large" versions that were sent to the Media Browser. Same result. I even tried exporting the project as a Quicktime DV stream and burning a DVD using Toast Titanium 9. No difference.
Now, the video preview inside iMovie seems to look OK, but then again it's hard to compare what I'm seeing there with the finished DVD video that I watch on my 13" television. I'm thinking that something is going haywire in the export and DVD-burning phase, though I may be way off on that one.
In any case, I'd love to hear from anyone who is attempting to do similar transfers and how they achieved the best-looking results. I'm merely trying to whittle down my collection of VHS tapes, but if the transfer quality can't be improved I'm kind of stuck...
Oh, I also own FCP Express 4, and am wondering if that might produce a better import? I have no idea.
Any advice or comments from past experience would be much appreciated.
Thank you,
David

I imported the footage into iMovie '08, then tried burning a DVD
Use iMovie 06 not iMovie 08.
For interlaced video such as DV and 1080i HDV, iMovie 08 now uses single-field processing. This means every other horizontal line of the video is thrown out, which reduces the sharpness of the footage.
If your primary workflow is editing DV clips and making DVDs, iMovie '06 is better suited. Your movie will arrive at iDVD in DV format, which is an ideal match for making a DVD: same resolution, same pixels aspect ratio, and original quality. If you share your movie from iMovie '08, it gets re-rendered at 640x480 or less, and then iDVD upscales it back to 720x480. The end result is obviously not as good.
iMovie 06 and iDVD 08 is the best combination. Use Professional Quality in iDVD 08.
When I use iMovie 06 and iDVD 08 I get excellent results.
I use the Canopus ADVC300 because it comes with a nice Macintosh application that works flawlessly with iMovie 06. The program that comes with the ADVC300 has some nice filters that can improve video and audio of the source material.
The Web site below has a good comparison of Apple video products.

Problems importing camcorder video

I have been importing camcorder files to a large external hard using iMovie 6. It has gone very well without a hitch for many many hours. The external hard drive is connected to the computer via fire wire and the camcorder is connected to the computer via fire wire and the iMovie files are saved on th external hard drive. All of a sudden importing became far more difficult. Sometimes importing will terminate (always after 1.16sec) after clicking the import button while the miniDV tape is playing. It works better if I import from a stopped position. Sometimes the multi colored rotating ball appears even if I just press the rewind button. I constantly have to turn the camcorder off and then back on to reset it. If I do not turn off the camcorder, iMovie will quit and sometimes it quits spontaneously anyway. I learned that the external hard drive was not Mac formatted so I bought another 1 TB hard drive, transferred everything from the old hard drive to the new Mac formatted hard drive and tried again. No luck. Same problems. I have 125 GB of free space on the internal hard drive. Oh wise and sage apple discussion forum, any ideas ? The camcorder is a Canon Z100 (same thing happens with the Z600). Thanks.

hey there ndbob79,
Canon cams will sometimes have issues w/ having other FW devices on the same buss(ie ext. HDDs).
you can buy a FW ExpressCard, that will fit in the slot on your MBP to create a 2nd FW buss or you can create projects & do the import on the internal HDD, then copy it over to the ext. HDD & work on the project from there. there is no need to copy back & forth from the internal to external, back to external, then internal, etc... once your project & footage are on the external you can edit from there, if you add music from iTunes or pix from iPhoto, the project will have the necessary pointers if the items/files are on your internal.
good luck.

Problems importing DVD video files into CS3

Hello!
We own a copy of a guest service video that I'm trying to edit down for a condensed version used in our in-house training.
I use PP CS3 and have saved the video files off onto my hard drive, but they are not importing into PP.   I'm having a non-supported format error message.
The files look just like those I saved and imported successfully from our corporate orientation DVD, except for file extensions that are showing up on these guest service files; where they did not on my first project.
These new file names are: VIDEO_TS.IFO, VIDEO_TS.VOB   and   VIDEO_TS.BUP.
Any wisdom would be appreciated!    I'm wondering if they are encrypted or secured, but the DVD is from 2001 and it seems unlikely.
Thanks!

Mary,
I understand. I came to video from a similar background, though I did have a degree from film school, as a foundation. Back then, video was live feed, or archived to 2" tape, that could only be edited with tape and a splicing block. They did not even have deck-to-deck editing yet.
I'd spent decades with PS and AI, before I came to PrPro and to digital video. Since there was a 3-decade lag between my cine days, and when I first hit PrPro, I still have a lot to learn, and that's my main purpose for spending time in this forum - learning.
Good luck, and hope that the material can be Imported and edited just fine. Now, the MPEG-2 format/CODEC is not ideal and on several fronts, especially quality, it can be done, and done pretty well. It's the variables, that can get in the way, and sometimes, one has to side-step those with maybe ripping software, or other processes, many of which are covered in that article. More than one way to "skin the cat... " Right now, we're X'ing our fingers that the simple method will work. If not, do not give up, as there ARE other things that should get you editing.

Problem Importing Home Video

I just transferred a home video from VHS to a DVD-R but when I tried to import it to iMovie it set that the format was not compatible with iMovie. Does anyone have any suggestions of how to convert this video so it will work in iMovie. Thanks

I would recommend that you buy the Apple MPEG2 Playback Component ($20) and MPEG Streamclip (free).
Put your DVD into your Mac. If DVD Player comes up, quit it. THen open the DVD in the finder.
Open MPEG Streamclip. Drag the VOB files from the DVD to MPEG Streamclip. If it offers to repair timecodes say yes. In Streamclip, FILE/EXPORT USING QUICKTIME. Choose Apple Intermediate Codec, and give the file a name. You can then import this file into iMovie.
