Publishing quick time movie from a fla with embeded video

I'm exporting my flash movie as a quick time movie (setting
the flash version in 5 on the publish settings), and everything is
ok except that the videos that are embeded just dissapear. Is there
a way to import .movs into a .fla and still being able to export to
whole thing into quick time?

My guess is that you import video to flash using codec that
is not supported in
QT player. Do the following. Open new document and set it
right away to FLASH 5,
than import the video and you will notice your options has
drastically change to
very minimal. Anyhow, import, do whatever you wish to it,
export as QT MOV file.
Should work on first go. If does not, please upload that
video you trying to use,
I will check it out for you.

Quick Time MOV file

I am currently using Flash Pro 8. I publish Quick Time MOV
file. I got a message saying :
"The installed version of Quick Time does not support this
type of Macromedia Flash movie. Quick Time requires Macromedia
Flash version 5 or before. Please select "version Flash Player 5"
in the Flash tab of the Publish Setting dialog."
I select Flash Player 5. But it still give me this message.
Anybody knows why ? Need help>

This URL will only be accessible from your computer. Are you set up as a server? If so, provide the server's path to the file. Otherwise you will need to upload the file to an internet server like DropBox (or other free service) or send it "peer-to-peer" if too large to be emailed. (I also have a LaCie CloudBox but you would have to have Apple's compatible version of Java turned on and active in both the system and browser to run the JumpLoader applet via LaCie's MyNAS login access.)

Unable to play Quick Time movies in web pages

We have Quick Time 7.0.4 player installed on Mac OS X v10.4, But we are unable to open Quick time movies in web browser from external web sites.
It gives us error ‘To view this movie, you will need QuickTime 5 (or later)’
If we open Quick time movies from local disk in web browser then it works perfectly alright.
Could you please let us know the reason behind this?
Note: I have encounter this problem on safari and IE 5.2 browser.

For instance if you go to this page again in Safari,
http://www.apple.com/quicktime/qtv/mwsf06/
and then select "View Source" from the View menu, then press command-f to "find" within the page and search for ".mov"
You will find this, which shows the url of the movie itself.
<param name="href" value="http://stream.qtv.apple.com/events/jan/mw2006/mmw_2006_650ref.mov">
If you copy just this part:
http://stream.qtv.apple.com/events/jan/mw2006/mmw_2006_650ref.mov
And open QuickTime Player, go to the File menu, select "Open URL" the movie will play.
If you try the same technique on the page at the link provided by your client, it will allow you to bypass the html code that may be doing an outdated compatibility check and the movie may play. Or it may tell you that you are missing components (codecs, compressors etc.) in which case, post here again.

Editing quick time movie clips with sound

We are editing together some quick time movie clips but we can't get the sound to come up.
Is there something we are doing wrong? Can you split the voice from the visual when you bring these clips into Final Cut?

A QuickTime movie can be made from any number of codecs. Which one are you working with?
If it's an MPEG video, chances are it will need to be demuxed. You can use MPEG Streamclip for this and other conversions.

Creating Quick Time Movie with Photos' Titles?

When exporting an album to a Quick Time MOV file is there any way to export the titles for photos too? If not, is there a way to create a "universal" slide show that plays on all OS's with titles?

EarthBased:
What is the ultimate destination of this slideshow? If it's for a DVD project post back as there are other steps to take to make sure the titles display on screen. Or you can use a 3rd party slideshow application that gives you more flexibility as to where the titles are placed. PhotoPresenter is one (very inexpensive) and has over 20 animated themes as well.
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. 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 now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

Using Quick Time movies with Logic

Hello all,
I am writing some music to a quick time movie and everything is working fine...then I scroll back and forth a little to fast....and then the movie starts to skip.
Problem is I can't get Logic to "Clear" itself, even if I restart or import a different movie, then come back to this movie, it still skips, any ideas...
Scott

Scott,
You're correct, the semi-colon is used to designate drop frame. I've seen way too many timecode burns that didn't match the actual frame rate, even when the footage was provided by supposedly professional editors. The only way to check it is to run it alongside Logic's timecode counter and see how well they jibe at different points in the movie, and based on your last post, you have the correct frame rate and burn.
As far as skipping, I don't think it has anything to do with how fast you scroll. Sounds to me like your hard drive is having trouble keeping up with the data stream. Is your movie located on its own drive, or is it on your system or audio drives? Best scenario is to have the movie streaming off of a dedicated drive.
There are two other scenarios almost guaranteed to cause skipping:
1. You have that movie open in QT while you're also trying to display it in Logic.
2. You have two or more songs open in Logic that reference the same movie. This is a sure-fire way to encounter skipping.

Can i export an Imovie project with special effects as a quick time movie then import into final cut express keeping the special effects?

Hi, Can i export an Imovie project with special effects as a quick time movie then import into final cut express keeping the special effects?

Absolutely. Go to File->Export->QuickTime Movie (do NOT use QuickTime Conversion). Make sure you check the Self-Contained box. The export will be an exact copy of your Sequence, complete with any filters or other effects you've added. Import the self-contained movie back into the project (or another project) if needed.

Quick time movies in iPhoto

I have a Panasonic digital camera DMC FX9. When I download stills and short movies from a SD memory card they automatically go into iPhoto. That presents a couple of problems on the quick time movies (.mov). One I don't want them in iPhoto, two if I rename them in iPhoto the new name does not show up in a "smart folder" on my desktop that contains only .mov files.
How can I make SD card downloads separate .mov files from iPhoto pictures? Would like the .mov's to got to the default MOVIE sidebar folder.
If not possible, then how can I make the names in iPhoto show up on a folder of just quicktime movies (they keep the original file name despite the new name in iPhoto)?

Hi Edward,
When iPhoto 5 first came out I really think it was programmed to import the smaller 30 sec video clips that cameras were taking at the time. Since then, digital cameras, at least my Canon S2 can take clips as large as your memory card can hold. The first time I tried to download my images and movie clips with my new camera, iPhoto stalled at the movie clips. I wasn't going to take any chances messing up my iPhoto Library so I started using Image Capture to download all my images and Movie clips. I actually like doing it this way a lot better. My movie clips are downloaded into my Movies folder where I then put them in a dated folder.
My photos are downloaded into my Pictures folder, where I then put them in a dated folder. I import the dated folder into iPhoto. I also keep all dated folders from photo downloads in the Pictures folder till I get enough Movie folders and Photo folders to fill a DVD. I burn them and then delete them from the hard drive.
This way I have the photos in iPhoto and I also have just the photos backed up to DVD.
The Movies I keep on the hard drive in their dated folders until I use all the clips for my iMovie projects for the Year. I then make sure they are all burned to DVD, then I delete those from my hard drive.
Using Image Capture to download images and video clips:
Open up Image Capture which is found in the Applications folder.
When it is opened, go to Image Capture/Preferences
Under the General button choose
Camera: When a camera is connected, open Image Capture.
The next time you connect your camera Image Capture will open.
In the window that opens you will see an Options button. Click on that button to set your options.
To find out more about Image Capture (it can do a lot more) Click on Help in the menu bar when Image Capture is open.
iPhoto: How to Change the "Open Automatically" Preference
If you find you can't change any of Image Captures preferences or can't access any drop down menus or they are greyed out, check to make sure Image Capture is loose in the Applications folder and not within a sub folder.

Keynote fails to play quick time movies

HI,
I am trying to play a quicktime movie which I added to one of the slides. It starts out fine then the screen goes white but the control at the bottom of the screen shows that the movie is still playing. Some times you get the same white slide when you try to stop a movie while it is playing and drag the cursor back to replay a part of the movie again. Other quicktime movies do fine. And this quick time movie plays fine in quicktime. The white slide you get when you are trying to replay a section of quicktime movies can be fixed by going back one slide and and coming back to the movie slide and playing it again. If some one has a fix please let me know. I have seen this happen with other people using quicktime in keynote too.

For instance if you go to this page again in Safari,
http://www.apple.com/quicktime/qtv/mwsf06/
and then select "View Source" from the View menu, then press command-f to "find" within the page and search for ".mov"

Widescreen Quick Time movie made in iPhoto

I have made a widescreen Quick time movie in iPhoto by exporting it to the desktop. It's 1500x660. Works great when played in Quick Time player on the wide screen TV from my computer. When I import it into iDVD, it shows ok in preview(with a note that says widescreen preview). When I burn it to a DVD it comes out skued and elongated. What can I do to prevent this?
Meatball

Fshippy,
I am puzzled by your statement : "you should be using iLife 06"
I recently finished a project containing:
1 iMovie 4:3
1 iMovie 16:9
90 pictures slideshow (2:3)
I used iLife 05.
I produced a DvD containing three chapters: one for each film and one for the slideshow.
The result is as follows when played on my set-top:
The DvD intro is in widescreen (I defined it that way) my TV-set switches to widescreen when the DvD starts, then the DvD menu comes up in aspectratio 4:3 (that's correct as there are no standard themes in 16:9)
when I play the films:
The 4:3 plays correctly
When I play the 16:9 film my TV-set switches automaticcaly to 16:9, this film plays correctly. When finished TV switches back to the menu 4:3
When I play the slideshow it plays without any distortion of the images.
As the originator talks "widescreen" I am not sure if he means 16:9 or HD.
Anyway, I don't experience any problems in bringing widescreen (16:9) to DvD using iDvD
Are you indeed specifiacally refering to HD or also to widescreen (16:9) ?
I did not produce HD sofar.

How can i convert a quick time movie file to a cd that will play in a car stereo?

how can i convert a quick time movie file to a cd that will play in a car stereo?

In quicktime, I would try File -> Export -> Audio. It will create an audio file. Then drop it onto your playlist into iTunes. Burn the list from itunes with File -> Burn to disk and then select Audio CD.
If you have Quicktime 7 it should be easier and export to AIFF directly

DV pal to Quick Time Movie FCP

When I convert a DV pal edit to quick time movie in FCP the quality is very poor? Is there another way of converting to internet with a better picture quality?
Thanks

What version of Final Cut Pro, Mac OS X and Quicktime?
What is your current Easy Setup in Final Cut Pro?
What are the current Sequence Settings in Final Cut Pro?
When you Export from FCP, what are the exact steps that you are taking?
When you view the file in QuickTime Player, do you have:
1. High quality playback turned on?
2. Final Cut Pro Color Compatibility turned on?
Both options can be found in QuickTime Player > Preferences > General.

What is Quick Time movie anyways - continuing

Thank you David,
Thank you guys all for your support.
That explains it all. It also raises another question, what is the most universal codec which would maintain the quality? Apparently is is Motion Jpeg. But how can I convert my HDV video to QT compressed with Motion Jpeg? I had tried to find settings in Compressor, but I couldn't find any Motion Jpeg settings..I have only find Photo Jpeg??
But let's say, that I will take that HDV video from my HDV 1080 i 60 timeline and
export it USING QUICK TIME CONVERSION:
Format QUICK TIME MOVIE and in OPTIONS I go to:
VIDEO SETTINGS and choose Photo Jpeg as my COMPRESSION TYPE
Now, what will the resulting file be? Photo Jpeg Quick Time?
I apologize for being confused that much and thank for your patience.

Yes, the file would be a QuickTime movie using the Photo JPEG codec.
Photo JPEG is almost the same as Motion JPEG, and it's a good choice
for disk playback performance. For example, if you are editing
several video streams for a multicam edit, and want to do an offline version,
FCP will make Photo JPEGS.
Here is some more information on the Photo JPEG codec:

I'm getting artifacts and noise when I converted a dv file to a dv quick time movie . HELP

I am trying to create a dv quick time movie with a resolution of 576x 256, 16 bit from a avi file that is 720x480 millions of color . When I have done this in after effects and made a dv quick time movie it is very noisy (both image and background). I am stymied. Tried to use thenoise effects- and blurring effects to no satisfaction. ANyone out there have any suggestions???? I need immediate help

which codec are you suggesting
If Stan's right and that has been asked for by the client, use that. If not, I like both the Lagarith codec and the UT codec. Both are lossless and will preserve maximum quality.
are you talking about doing this in AF or Premiere Pro
Either way works.

What actually is Quick Time movie?

Hello guys,
when exporting my HDV video project from FCP using Quick Time movie option, what actually is it? When I look at file info, it says .mov file, Quick Time movie format, codec HDV 1920x1080. So what is Quick Time movie? And how it differs from let's say QuickTime in Compressor?
Thank you.

As has already been stated, a .mov file is like a box that contains video and audio. The video and audio could be made from any number of codecs.
There is NO universal high quality video file format that will playback an all systems or platforms. In order for ANY video/audio file to playback on any given system/platform, it MUST HAVE the codecs used to make those files installed on that system. There are many QuickTime .mov files that will NOT playback on a Mac, IF the specific codec needed isn't installed on that Mac.
The same is true with the .avi files format; .avi is just a box like QuickTime.
You're best bet would be to identify the playback systems requirements for video/audio files and then target your output for that. Do it for every system/platform/delivery method that the file will be played on.
For example, I produced a program that would be played at the main branch of our library. Their playback system required an MPEG-2 Transport Stream and had very specific bit rate requirements. They also wanted the program to air on the local PBS channel, which had totally different requirements. And finally, they wanted several copies on DVD to distribute to donors whom helped make the exhibit possible. So with just one program, I had to output three different file types for this one project. This is also true of television broadcast. Different broadcasters will have different requirements. Some want BetaSP tape, some want DigiBeta. Some want an MPEG-2 Program Stream and some might even want a DVD-Video. Don't expect there to be a "one file fits all" type of situation.
