Problems when exporting from iMovie (see image)

I've had luck exporting using settings found here: http://karsten.schluter.googlepages.com/youtubeuploadsettings
Now, I've had plenty of luck in the past. However, my last video had a terrible output problem. Not sure how to describe it, so I'll post a screenshot.

What am I doing wrong? The source file does not have any the issues shown in the export.

My saying...!!
+a pic is worth a 10.000 pidgin words.+.
that 'effect' is called interlacing.. wiki yourself.
in the Export Dialog of QT, you'll find under 'Size' a checkbox 'Deinterlace' - check that, done (hopefully) ...
aside:
the *QT preset 'iPhone'* does an excellent job on most of my upload... (NOT iPhone/Cellular, just plain 'iPhone'...).
Don't notice any better/worse to 'my' manual settings plus encoding 'feels' faster ... for unknown reasons ..never made a real test...

  • IDVD Stops Responding when Exporting from iMovie

    I'm using iDVD and iMovie (from iLife 06 and fully up to date) on a MacPro (also up to date on all software, MacOSX, Quicktime etc).
    This proceedure has worked before several times but now results in a non-responding iDVD every time I try it, including an archive and re-install and a complete new install of OSX and all software on a new partition.
    What I'm doing.....
    [1] Recording a TV programme on EyeTV (410) and exporting it to iMovie - sucessful every time
    [2] Edit the iMove project and add chapter markers and save project - no problem.
    [3] Export to iDVD - iDVD shows exporting in progress and whilst this is still showing iDVD launches
    [4] iDVD starts playing the music from a std theme for a few seconds and then stops. Then resumes the music after resizing the window and then after a couple of more seconds freezes. From the Dock I can see that iMove and iDVD are "not responding"
    [5] Eventually iMovie completes it's "export" and then starts responding normally. iDVD continues to show as non responding although I can move the window around the screen. I have to force quit iDVD to get it to close down.
    I have tried:
    Re-exporting the project from EyeTV
    Deleting the preferences files for iMove and iDVD
    Deleting the iLife suite and re-installing
    Doing an OSX archive and re-install
    Installing a fresh OSX (10.4.8) on a different drive and installing fresh software
    Running Disk Utility - clean bill of health on both drives
    Repaired permissions
    The Console reports the following errors when exporting from iMove to iDVD:
    ===== Tuesday, 24 October 2006 22:56:45 Europe/London =====

    Result - problem persists. I'm at a loss as what to do next. Any suggestions greatfully received.

    Yes, tried that when I deleted the preferences. Disk Utility did not report any permissions needed repairing.
    What really mystifies me is that this export to iDVD did work once and I expected it to resume once I'd created a fresh OSX install along with all the iLife apps on a new partition, but it remained the same!
    Perhaps there is some sort of other software conflict going on? I have Adobe CS2, MS Office, Toast and FMP installed all are latest editions. On the utilities front I have installed Stuffit Deluxe, Internet Cleanup, Contour USB controller for video editing and a LogicTech wireless trackball. Again all the drivers are the latest releases.
    Does anyone know if there are any preferences associated with the other not responding applications listed in my other post that I could try the delete-reboot trick on?

  • Changing frame rate when exporting from iMovie '09 using quicktime has no impact on duration.  Why?

    Changing frame rate when exporting from iMovie '09 using quicktime has no impact on duration.  Why?
    I have a file created by digitizing an 8mm film at a rate of 24 fps. I would like to create a downloaded movie at a frame rate of 15 fps.  The Export using Quicktime option seems to provide that capability but the resulting file has the same duration as the original 24 fps file.  How can I get the exported movie to be slowed down?

    joegez,
    There is a feature you can use to slow down the video. In the project, move the mouse pointer over the clip, then click the gear icon. That brings up the Inspector. Click the Clip tab. Then you will see a feature there called Speed. Move the slider to the left to slow down the clip. Or you can enter a percentage in the box on the right.
    Hope this solves the problem for you.

  • When exporting from Imovie I get the following error? OSStatus error -2009

    when exporting from Imovie I get the following error? OSStatus error -2009

    Hi
    Apple Support pages says.
    Error 2000-2009 (2001, 2002, 2005, 2006, 2009, and so on)
    If you experience this issue on a Mac, disconnect third-party devices, hubs, spare cables, displays, reset the SMC, and then try to restore. If you are using a Windows computer, remove all USB devices and spare cables other than your keyboard, mouse, and the device, restart the computer, and try to restore. If that does not resolve the issue, try the USB issue-resolution steps and articles listed for Error 1604 above. If the issue persists, it may be related to conflicting security software.

  • No sound when exporting from imovie 3,03

    After having read most of the posts related to sound troubles, I still can't figure out why I can't get any sound when I export from imovie 3,03.
    I almost know the entire dan slagle site, and checked every button to play with, I've tried many export or preferences settings (including various depths or rates) but got no result at all.
    Surprisingly, when I grab the .mov file to some converters (ffmpegx), the expected audio part looks to be there, but remains silent (for me, meaning all of the bits at 0).
    Don't hesitate to require additional info - thanks to prompt answers

    hurrah !
    i just downgraded QT 7.x to 6.5.2 and it worked fine at last.
    From the informations I've gathered, DO NOT RUN QT 7.x WITH OSX 10.3.9

  • Idvd pixelated when exported from imovie

    DVD looks great on imac but dvd is pixelated once exported from imovie and put on dvd using IDVD.
    Any suggestions

    Welcome to the forums, Alison.
    I'm not a GarageBand user, but couldn't you export the GB audio tracks as a Quicktime file, and then import that audio track into iMovie? If it's combined in iMovie, then it should import into iDVD without a conceptual hitch.

  • Problems to export from iMovie to iDVD

    Hi,
    I made a film using iMovie and, when I try to export it to iDVD, an information board tells me that it's impossible due to a "mystake 0". The board asks me to check if the program is correctly installed (it is) and if I have enough space disk (I have plenty).
    Can you please help me. This film is very important to me.
    Thanks in advance !
    Hakim

    Hello, and welcome to the discussions!
    Have you ever burned a DVD? If not, try making a 2 min movie in a new iMovie project and see if you can burn it as a disk image.
    You might receive the 'Error 0' message if you are using purchased iTunes songs in your movie.
    Try deleting the plists for both iMovie and iDVD. plists found in Username->Library->Preferences->com.apple.iMovieplist/ com.apple.iDVDplist.
    Then, if you can save a short movie as a disk image, you are not using purchased iTunes music, and you have deleted the plists---don't use the 'create DVD' from within iMovie. Close iMovie. Open iDVD. I recommend you create a new iDVD project for your film. After selecting the theme, go to the 'media' tab and find the 'movies' and drag and drop your movie onto the iDVD main screen. Finish making your titles, scene selection themes, etc.
    Then, try saving the project as a disk image. If that works, you can burn your DVD using Disk Utility to burn in from the disk image.
    Post back if this is not clear or does not work.

  • No audio when exporting from iMovie

    I am trying to export my HD movie from imovie in HD size format 1280x720, when I do I am not getting any audio. Is there something that I am missing, a mute check box or special setting? I have looked everywhere but just cant figure it out.

    This is speculation on my part so take it with a grain of salt.
    But first you have to realize that iMovie renders the entire movie, effects, music, transitions, photos, etc. in one pass. If you use Final Cut Express or Final Cut Pro, you can render a sequence, or render a nest of sequences. You can create a much longer movie this way without taxing your machine.
    Secondly, the Intel architecture has a graphics processor that offloads a lot of the heavy lifting to a video chip or video card. On a PowerPC (RISC) architecture, everything goes through the CPU.

  • Embedding font problems (when exporting from InDesign to PDF)

    A message alert is shown, when opening a pdf - after exporting from InDesign: Cannont exctract the embedded Font Frutiger.
    We have uninstalled the frutiger font and installed an open type. But the font is not embedded anyhow..?
    Can anyone help?
    Thanks very much.
    Jane

    I don't know if you need help scripting this, but...........
    If you can not re-create the PDF from InDesign using the OTF,
    In Acrobat, highlight the text with the acrobat touch-up text tool, right click and go to properties. You should be able to assign the OTF font running on you system, and select the embed option.
    If not, this is why PitStop is an indespensable (sp?) tool.
    Best of luck

  • Problem with the sound when exporting from imovie

    I made a movie in imovie 09. I added music as backgroud and faded the original sounds of the movie to 0%. Everything looks and sounds good when I play the movie in imovie. However when I export the movie (because I want to burn it on a disk) the original sounds/noise comes back in some parts of the movie. How is this possible? I export the movie to Quicktime and to iDVD and it gives the same problem. Does anyone knows a sollution?

    I have just found out that the correct word for "drawing area" is "artboard" in the English language Illustrator version. I use a German language Illustrator, so I'm sorry for misunderstandings concerning this term.
    I have made an Illustrator file that should demonstrate the problem but was not able to find the correct place for bugs in the Production suite at the issue tracker. Would be "Project Nile" the place to put the bug at?

  • TA22866 Error -40 when exporting from imovie?

    I am trying to get an old movie I created off an old imac from 2000.
    When I export it to quicktime in "Medium quality", it works ok.
    When I export it to quicktime in "Hiigh quality", it exports and creates the file but when I try to open it in quicktime or drag it to a USB thumb drive, it cannot do either one and says an error -40 has occurred.  Can anyone help?  I really want to get this movie off the old imac and not in medium quality.
    Thanks!

    Thank you for the suggestion. I had stopped trying to use iMovie '09 at all for several days, then went back to it to try creating a movie from a different original source material, one that I had successfully exported movies from in the past (a Kodak Zi6). To my surprise, I got the same error as the one I got from my quicktime generated mp4's.
    When this occurs, it seems to almost complete the encoding process. I can see a file on disk, that grows to about the size that the final export movie should be. I even created a hardlink to that file so that when iMovie '09 errors out, I still have a copy of the exported movie. However, there is something about the metadata on the file that inhibits my ability to even open it with Quicktime.
    When I attempt to use "open movie.mp4" at the command-line, it immediately errors out with:
    Some files were not found for the file /Volumes/gks/Pictures/HCRO/timelapse/eno-titles-backup.mp4.
    I'm unfamiliar with fixing up these sorts of metadata forks on macosx, but suspect this is fixable after the fact.
    Also, it turns out that your suggestion to lower the bit rate to 2500-5000 was helpful! I've been able to export movies using the lower bit rate. This is rather unfortunate though as the lower quality is notable... sigh.
    So, it appears that this is an issue with iMovie '09 interacting with the quicktime codec for H.264.

  • Distorted Audio when exporting from iMovie 11

    In iMovie 11 the edited movie sounds fine. But when the movie is exported to the media browser or Vimeo, the audio is distorted. It sounds like gain has been set way too high. I have used this version iMovie a lot and have never encountered this problem. Ideas?

  • Stange Button Problems when Exporting From Fireworks

    Firstly Thanks for the help from others regarding the Button
    Issues that I have been having.
    I have created a button with pop up menu in Fireworks , I
    preview the button and the preview in fireworks shows an outline of
    the Pop up menu in excatly the correct position , however when I
    insert the Fireworks HTML into a Table in Dreamweaver and preview
    it in IE the table jumps up to the top of the button , I have tried
    moving the startup position in Fireworks then exporting again , but
    the problem is still there. Beneath the Button in the table after
    inserting Dreamweaver adds what looks like a golden shield / anchor
    with my pop up menu descriptions , I guess this is the pop up menu
    descriptions , is this what is causing the problem.?.
    I have attached the HTML code for those experts I know lurk
    on this forum.
    Getting very frustarted now.!.I am so close to getting the
    Pop up bar menu done , and people on here said it does not work ,
    once this fix is complete I am ready.
    Hope someone can help me.

  • Why don't I get any sound when export from imovie to quicktime DVD

    Help. I am a new imovie user so hope not being stupid. am using G4 powerbook with OS X 10.3.9. imovie 3.0.3 and quick time 7.1.2. Have made 2 films so far - first exported fine into quicktime with sound. Second exports but without any sound. This film is 5 mins long. It plays fine in imovie, and if exported as low quality for web also records sound (when 188 kg), but big version for DVD gives the problem. thanks for any advice. Sue

    Hi Sue: (Nice name)
    Welcome to discussions!
    It may be that your quicktime is not getting along well with you OS X version...try to revert back to another version of quicktime (BUT- I don't know if this will work with your current QuickTime though)
