Question about imported wmv files

hi all,
if i import a .wmv video into the library of my .fla file,
does the import convert the .wmv into a flash movie? in other
words, when someone views the .swf in their browser, is it played
by the flash player alone, or is windows media somehow involved in
its playback?
many thanks,
macron

no.. go here

Basic question about importing wma files

Hi, I have a basic question about importing wma files. I ripped some cd's on a Mindows computer using Media Player, but now want to copy them to my Mac and use them in iTunes on my Mac. when I use Import in iTunes, nothing happens and I cant even seem to copy them one by one using the Music folder.
Can someone help me?
thanks

iTunes for Mac doesn't support .wma files.
If you can use a PC to convert them, you can use one of many freeware applications. Google for 'wma to mp3'.
For the Mac there's the shareware program EasyWMA that can convert them.
Hope this helps.

Some questions about importing HTML files

Hi, folks
Let's suppose we want to import a pack of HTML files formatted in HTML5 wit's it's CSS into a double-oriented folio. A couple or three questions about that, please:
1. Is there a limit for a reasonable quantity of HTML files I can import into a folio? I mean.. 100 would be way too much, for instance?
2. These HTML files could be navigated and referenced from inside TOC-pages made in InDesign,right? (navto://..., I gues?)
2. Will it be possible, by means of HTML adaptative design techniques, to treat both orientations (vertical and horizontal) as different viewports or screen sizes so that the design adapts for instance the column width with its CSS?
3. That said, will the InDesign final app. respect that adaptative CSS rules?
I am asking this because we are looking for a way to inject big quantities of content with a very similar design into our application in a really fast and automatizable way and I have the suspicion* that importing HTML5 preformated CSS files could be the a very good and simple alternative to importing XML into InDesign templates as we start out content as tagged almost-html files.
Thanks a lot

I assume you are asking about using HTML articles.
1. There is no limit beyond simply keeping things reasonable.
2. Yes. Just use navto://articlename
3. Yes. I've used min-width of 768 and max width of 1024 to control it.
4. InDesign does not enter into any of this with the exception of using the folio builder panel. Everything else is done in Dreamweaver or whatever program you decide to use for the article.
If you want to restrict the HTML articles to one orientation or the other, use the _h and _v suffixes.

Question About Importing Midi Files??

I find breaking down tempos and creating a tempo map easier for me in Pro Tools. So I did that on a file tonight, and just made a dummy midi file in PT so that I could import it into Logic and have a tempo map ready to go.
But now I see that Logic will only import tempo if you OPEN the midi file. But there's nothing in the midi file as I mentioned, it was just a dummy to give me a map.
Now it means creating all my track setups, VIs, everything, everytime I do this. Is there any way around this that I'm missing?
I just want my existing template to import a midi file's tempo created in another program ...
Thanks
Tom

Hi
OPEN the MIDI file, then select all the tempo events (either in the Global Track or in the Tempo List). Copy the tempo events.
Switch to your Logic template project, open the Tempo list then paste in the tempo map. You might need to delete the first (original) tempo event after pasting.

Use MPEG Streamclip to convert it. Depending on the type of file you might need to purchase the MPEG-2 playback component.

How to import WMV file for use in adobe programs, especially After Effects and/or Premier?

How to import WMV file for use in adobe programs, especially After Effects and/or Premier?

I have the latest adobe creative cloud and i'm using Mac 10.8.2
My client gave me a wmv file that she wants some people blurred out in the background but when I go to import the media, it's greyed out. I'm assuming that After Effects will be the best solution for this, but maybe there is another way.
I can purchase a video converter and convert it to .mov but that costs extra money that I don't want to spend just to do this one project.

Top half of video is missing on imported WMV files. Running CS3 & Win XP Professional

Top half of video is missing on imported .WMV files. I'm running CS3 Adobe Premier Pro with Win XP Professional OS
Hi all,
I just installed my Adobe Premier Pro CS3 for the very first time. I then IMPORTED a WMV file into the Project Frame and then Dragged & Dropped it into the Time Line. All the windows (or Frames) Project Frame, Source Frame and the mini-Project Frame show this video with the top half missing. I’m running Win XP Professional with the latest Service Packs installed.
Please Help.
Thanks
Derek

After Searching the net for a while here, I found a solution to the "Half Screen" problem!
The half screen video problems seen while trying to play WMV files in my CS3 Adobe Premiere Pro program seems to have been due to a recent Windows software Security update made to it’s Windows Media Player programming. As soon as I removed that update, my WMV files now show normally within Adobe Premier Pro.
If you wish to uninstall this Windows Patch / Security Update on Win XP Machines:
No#1 Prior to removing/un-installing the file, shut off "Windows Automatic Updates" and set update preferences to manual. Thus in the future you can select which Updates you want to instal (and which one not to instal) *remember to ignore the KB2834904 update in the future! That is at least until Widows fixes this Security Update / Patch.
A) Go to "Add/Remove Programs" in Control Panel
B) In the Add/Remove Programs, check the "Show Updates" box located at the top of that window
C) Scroll down to "Windows XP Software Updates" and within that section, scroll down to "Security Update for Windows Media Player" KB2834904 (mine was dated 7-10-2013)
D) Click on the REMOVE button and re-start your system.
If using Win 7 Operating System: to remove this Patch / Security Update the file to remove is: KB2803821 - In Windows 7, go to "Add/Remove Programs" in Control Panel, click on the "View installed updates" link in the left sidebar, search for KB 2803821 and click REMOVE.
Good luck everyone!

Importing WMV files into iTunes/Converting files

1) How can I import WMV files into my iTunes library? I know iTunes can't import protected files. So is there no way to put those videos on my iPod?
2) I tried to converting a Movie Clip by right clciking on it and pressing 'Convert Selection for iPod' when I imported it. But there's no audio. What's the problem?
Dell Laptop Windows XP

Someone gave me this link and it works really well.

When importing WMV files, I only get the first few seconds of my movie.

I'm trying to do some color correction on a wedding video. The video was captured using Windows movie capture software and saved as a WMV file.
The file is about 700MB and 50 minutes long. When I import the file it the Project tab says the duration is only about 25 seconds. When I preview it, still only 25 seconds will show up. It's doing this for every video of the wedding that I import.
Any ideas on how to fix this?

What version of AE and with what compression settings were they captured? Premature stream endings usually points to VBR encoding, which AE doesn't particularly like. The files from Movie Maker may also contain program-specific data such as edit markers, which also could be mis-interpreted by AE. Check such things and perhaps try differnt settings. Failing that, simply use VirtualDub and similar tools to convert to conventional AVIs or otehr suitable formats.

Importing .wmv files into my itunes

I sent myself songs from my windows PC to my MAC, i was hoping on importing them into my itunes so i can download them to my ipod. The tunes will not import and i am not too sure what to do. Any suggestions?

yes iTunes for windows will convert unprotected .wma (I assume you mean wma as you are talking about songs - wmv is a video file) into the format you have set under your import settings. Just add the folder.

Importing .wmv files from adobe photoshop elements

My mother-in-law created a slideshow with adobe photoshop elements 6.0 and I can get into into a .wmv file but can not import it to imovie. I saw another post about changing the code on the PC but can't seem to find a place to do that on the program. This is a one time thing and I don't want to pay for a conversion software that I will never use. Any ideas? I thought about just burning a DVD of the slideshow and then trying to import it that way, will that work?

I saw another post about changing the code on the PC but can't seem to find a place to do that on the program
In the slide show editor, Output>PDF would be your only other option, and you would lose music, transitions, etc. if you choose that.

Help importing WMV files with 4 audio tracks....

Hello,
I am using a PC to run a robot show. The show runs off of WMV files recorded with 4 audio tracks.
The "front" audio tracks are the left and right chanels for sound.
The "rear" audio tracks are the signals the show runs off of.
(If you want to see the show... it's here http://www.yorkmiss.com/Curtains.wmv
I run the audio files using the windows media player and as you can see... it works fine.
However, I would like to use the I-tunes player since I can then controld the show remotely using my I-Touch.
The problem is that every time I import one of the audio file into I-tunes, it converts it to a new type of file that "blends" the front and rear chanels of audio together.
I've tried every different option in the import prefrences list - and they all have the same result.
Does anyone know a way of playing the files "as-is" without converting them, or is there a way of converting them I do not know about?
Here's an example of one of the files:
http://www.yorkmiss.com/ShowbizKylesmom_504.wma
Any help or suggestions would be welcome and appreciated!
Thanks in advance,
Beth

Yes, I understand that now... but is there a way to convert to those file types while still preserving the 4 seperate audio chanels?
Thanks, Beth

Important wmv / files converted from wmv to avi into imovie - PROBLEM!

Hi there,
I feel like I'm going insane with this.
I had the same problem on '08 as I do on '09.
I make youtube videos and I am trying to open some clips that were edited on a PC by other youtube users (who have emailed them to me for a group project). They won't open in imovie. If I convert the file to .avi or .m4v or even .mp4 using Handbrake, they still won't import into imovie.
I don't know what to do and there aren't that many threads about this online.
The closest I've got is this information I found on one thread:
iMovie '08 will only allow you to to import files containing compression formats that can be edited. If your AVI file won't import, it likely means that the audio and/or video data is not editable. To import it, you will have to first convert it to any of the acceptable compression formats. For video this means DV, AIC, M-JPEG, Photo-JPEG, MPEG-4, or H.264.
Can anyone help me?
I've wasted such a lot of time on this.
I have Flip4Mac (free) and I can't export a wmv file on it unless I buy Quicktime Pro but I'm loathe to buy it on the offchance by converted file still won't open in imovie
I hope to hear from someone soon.
Many thanks,
Emily

Hi Em and welcome to the forums!
On this one issue I may be able to help:
I have Flip4Mac (free) and I can't export a wmv file on it unless I buy Quicktime Pro
Nope, QT Pro does not export to wmv, but the PAID FOR version of Flip4Mac does that conversion!

Sudden difficulty importing wmv files

Hi, I'm using a trial version of CS4, am under the gun, have strong working computer knowledge but limited technical knowledge, and am new to video editing. But I had a great guy teach me the basic ropes of video editing in CS4 and I'm doing a pretty great job of creating clips from downloaded wmv files and have about 7 clips of 12 done for a presentation I need to deliver today. Suddenly, however, I can't get the final wmv file to load into Premiere. The only difference I can see between the two prior files that imported fine and this third one is that the two prior files show on my desktop with the wmv "filmstrip" icon, and this third one shows with the "first frame" icon. All 3 wmv files were downloaded from the same source, are about the same size (250MG), etc. I've tried dragging and dropping, importing from menu, and right-clicking. Nothing works. I deleted and re-downloaded the third just in case it was corrupted. But for some reason, every time I try to import this third file, CS4 gives me the message "Not Responding," and then Premiere crashes. I really can't stop working on this now, and I need clips from this file. How can I get it in there? Thank you.

Well, WMV is a streaming, delivery-only format, and not meant for editing. However, some will Import and edit, to a degree, in PrPro, with some major processing overhead required.
Also, WMV is a "wrapper," in that it can contain all sorts of "stuff." Likely, your one bad WMV has something that PrPro cannot handle, or does not like.
Open up Windows Movie Maker (should be installed on most Windows machines), Import that WMV, and drag it to the Timeline. Export as DV-AVI w/ 48KHz 16-bit Uncompressed WAV. Import THAT file into PrPro, and edit away.
With WMV files, conversion is always the best workflow.
This ARTICLE will give you some background on "wrappers."
Good luck,
Hunt
[Edit] I see that you got things sorted out, and that's good news. The above will give you some of the info that you seek now.
