QT movie into FC6 timeline acts wonky and causes wonky output

I have a QT movie that I made from a Final Cut project and have put it back into another timeline and it plays horribly, etc. I saved that project thinking it would come out ok and...it still plays wonky. First time I've used the word wonky in ten years...
any thoughts?

The QT clip is 5 minutes - Codecs Interger (Big Endian) H264 720 x 480,
and the Final Cut timeline is just what opens when I choose New Project. What and How would I set it differently to accept that QT clip? Thanks

    Because your clip properties do not match your sequence settings.
    It will help a lot if you provide details ...

    Sequence settings (vid rate, frame size, compressor)

  • [SOLVED] Makepkg makes qmake or make act weird and causes trouble

    I am trying to build an Arch package from a Qt app. The app is split into some libraries that are compiled with the main application. Installation instruction for the whole app are defined in src.pro (see the hierarchy below), which are then written into the Makefiles that are generated on-the-fly during the build process. When I run 'qmake && make && make install' manually, everything goes fine. But when I try to build the package using a PKGBUILD, for some reason the Makefile generated based on the src.pro is missing installation instruction for the libraries (lib1, lib2, etc.).
    I don't really have any idea of what is the problem. I tried to study the output of the make process and it seems like that when running makepkg, qmake first runs on each subdirectory to generate the Makefiles and only then begins the actual build process. Manually running make first builds one directory, then the second one and so on and only generates a Makefile when entering a directory. Since the libraries marked for installation do not exist in the beginning of the build process, they are not put into the Makefile at all, I think.
    My first idea for a solution was to move the installation instructions into the libraries' own .pro files but that didn't seem to change anything. The build() process in the makepkg only runs qmake, make and make install - what I also do manually.
    The directory structure of the project is like this:
    project/
        project.pro
        src/
            src.pro
            lib1/
                lib1.pro
            lib2/
                lib2.pro

    After many hours I finally came up with a solution that was too easy... I only needed an "install.pri" file in which I added two lines:
    target.path = /path/
    INSTALLS += target
    Next I just included that file into each lib's .pro file and now the makepkg process works. "target" is somewhat a magical variable for qmake.
    I consider this solved.

  • Movies skip in drive/like stop-and-go motion; transcoded FFmpeg do same!?

    Hi folks. I have been ripping some DVDs as of late and I am in the midst of transfering them to Apple TV on my network. However I seem to have run into a problem.
    Today I went to rip a DVD and then loaded into iTunes and trans to Apple TV. I was noticing that it was skipping a bit on my TV - not smooth playing in other words.
    So I went back to my Macbook and started playing a disk in the Macbook DVD player and notices that when I play the movie stops and goes. Will play a second or two then stop then play then stop, almost like arecord skipping without missing any music. The drive seems to be a little noisier now too - making churning or turning noise as it reads and plays (skips).
    What could this be from? This wasnt happening yesterday - I was able to rip a couple that didnt have this problem. Is the superdrive bad now? is it a software issue? Do I need ot reset PRAM?
    Come to think of it I also was using FFMpeg to transcode some .avi movies into Apple TV compatible files and they didnt come out very well either, had to trash them. Since this is software based and not drive based, coul dmy issue be some setting or PRAM on Macbook itself rather than the drive?
    OK I'm confused now!
    Your help would be greatly appreciated!! as always...
    Jason

    So I dloaded VLC to play the movies before I rip them and I am getting the following errors for 2 different movies:
    main: decoder is leaking pictures, resetting the heap
    and
    main: INPUTCONTROL_SET_POSITION(OFFSET) 11.2% failed
    What do you think? Since I am not versed in this very wekk, is this a hardware or software issue? And how to remedy?
    Thanks

  • When I move high quality clips into my timeline in Final Cut Express HD, they look and export low quality. I have tried converting the clips and de-interlacing them, but they always look the same, What is the problem? Thanks so much.

    You should check that the Project settings match the clip settings before editing them to the Timeline.
    Only newly created Projects will change not existing ones by adjusting the Project settings.
    If, for example, you have a Project set to NTSC DV you can only end up in trouble if the clips are PAL 1920 x 1080i.

  • When I import audio and move it into my timeline the project will no longer play?

    When I import audio and move it into my timeline the project will no longer play?

    The audio is a .wav file created in Audacity.
    The OS is Windows XP
    The verison is CS4
    I have included images of the Sequence settings and the playback settings because I was not sure what information you would need.
    I am not sure what you mean by waiting for the Audio to conform but I know I have imported the audio and gone back the next day and tried to place it in the timeline and it still did not work.

  • How do I move clips in one pane of iMove (10.0.3) into the timeline?  iMovie somehow doesn't realize I'm trying to edit the clips.

    How do I move clips in one pane of iMove (10.0.3) into the timeline?  iMovie somehow doesn't realize I'm trying to edit the clips.

    Try this:
    Select a small portion of the clip in the event (Above the timeline)
    Click and hold and drag that section into the timeline, it should snap into place but if you drag it above another clip, it will not replace it but will be placed on top and the sound from the other clip will still play. Also this will allow you to use Blue/Green screen modes as well as picture in picture.
    The best way is to drag it to the far right

  • Why will audio not move into timeline in Premiere Pro CC?

    This has happened on two projects now. It will play in the monitor but when I try to move it into the timeline it is as if it does not exist. It will edit in Audition but that is time consuming and annoying if it is unnecessary. How do I fix this? I have been using CC since CS6 and this just started last week.

    Hi Jason,
    Jim was correct. You're audio is not patched. Click where it says A1 and you should good to go after that.
    Thanks,

  • My fcpx 'sees' the movies in side window, but won't let me drag them into the timeline. Any idea why?

    problem started when i moved my whole photo library to an external. FCPX wouldn't see it, so I moved it back- to the original spot/. And still fcpx wouldn't relink. So i started to 'rebuild' my movie and drag movie clips again into the timeline but it won't let me (tho it 'see's the clips when i click on 'camera' icon).
    It allows me to drag in the original pics (jpegs) but not any of the movies ...arghhh pls help thx!!!!

    What version are you using with 10.8.5? Why did you import video into iPhoto? What are the complete specs of the video files? Are they in formats that are compatible with FCP?

  • HT3819 Home Share issue: I have a Mac and Apple TV. Both are log into the same Wifi network and the same iTunes account (I can view purchased movies on AppleTV). Home Sharing shows 'ON' for both devices. BUT...AppleTV shows no computers. Itunes sidebar-no

    Has anyone else found solution to Apple devices not 'seeing' each other on Home Share?  I have a Macbook Air (new Nov'12) and Apple TV (new Dec'12). Software updated on both. Both are logged into the same Wifi network and the same iTunes account (I can view movies purchased from iTunes on my AppleTV). Home Sharing shows 'ON' for both devices. BUT...AppleTV shows no computers... and ... Itunes sidebar does not have a 'Shared' area at all.  Help please as without this functionality, my Apple TV only provides portal to purchased (i.e. Netflix,...) content which I can get from Wii or Xbox.
    I have already tried the following without success:
    1. Homeshare DID work the first day after I setup Apple TV... but the next day it has not worked since then.
    2. Powered off 30 sec then re-started (Apple TV & Macbook & iTunes login)
    3. Checked Firewall settings per Home Sharing troubleshooting guide (correct settings)
    4. Turning on Photostream in iPhoto and selecting iPhoto within iTunes and then checking to see if Photostream shows anything on AppleTV (it shows 'on' for my iTunes account but 'Zero' pictures found ... despite the >3,000 pictures showing avail in iTunes).
    I also have 'Remote" app on my iPhone 4, with Home Sharing turned on (same Wifi network)... it has a very similar message as the Apple TV and same result that despite all devices having HomeShare 'on' they cannot see each other:  "Remote will automatically find the iTunes libraries and Apple TVs that have Home Sharing turned on using the account xxxx (it lists my correct itunes account name)."

    I solved this by reset of the Wifi (unplug cable and power to both modem and wifi ... wait 60 sec ... plug in modem cable and power ... plug in wifi power and LAN to modem ... restart AppleTV and Mac ... Turn Home Share 'OFF' in iTunes then back "ON" ... it took ~60 sec for the AppleTV to pick up my Mac in computers.

    I want to take files from my PC (using a Seagate external hard drive) then plug this Seagate External hard drive into my Mac Book Pro and move the files from the Seagate External Hard drive onto my Time Capsule. I do not want to put these files on my Mac. How do I do this? Where do I put these files on my Time Capsule? Will it affect the functioning of my Time Capsule?

    Mixing files with data is not always great idea.
    See info here.
    Q3 http://pondini.org/TM/Time_Capsule.html
    Why not just connect the PC directly to the TC by ethernet and copy the files over?
    It is hugely faster and much less mucking around.
    In windows load the airport utility for windows.. if you have not already as this will help you access the drive.

  • How can I import a movie into iMovie 09 from a hard drive?  The movie will open and play in idvd but breaks into separate files that can't be downloaded when I try to import.  Can it be done?

    How can I import a movie into iMovie 09 from a hard drive?  The movie will open and play in idvd but breaks into separate files that can't be downloaded when I try to import.  Can it be done? I am trying to create a disc of player highlights for a collegiate coach, and I am using movie files downloaded to my hard drive from a DVD created on a PC. 

    No unfortunately it won't open in quicktime either.  It does the same thing that Imovie does, separates it into two file folders audio and video, and if i select video it opens to reveal 8 files that cannot be selected.  VIDEO_TS.BUP, VIDEO_TS.IFO, VIDEO_TS.VOB,VTS_01_0.BUP, VTS_01_0.IFO, VTS_01_1.VOB, VTS_01_2.VB, VTS_01_3.VOB.  All of which cannot be opened or selected.
    Opening it in Idvd and folllowing your suggestion works and I get a format code of NTSC.  Is that the same?  Thank you for your time and response.
