Quick Time Pro and exporting movie files

With Quicktime Pro do you have to purchase Flip for Mac for people with Windows Media Players or Realtime players to be able to view it?
I've heard of something called AV files. Does Quicktime Pro export a file in some version that can be read by other players, or do I have to purchase some software?

People with Windows can get the free QT Player for windows and view your QT files that way. One version of Flip4mac will allow you to start with QT and output WMV files. Those would play in Windows Media Player. AVI files might or might not depending on the codec used inside the AVI container.
There is lots of QT media on the internet, and Windows users just download and install the QT player at no cost and then can watch downloaded or streaming QT media.

  • Quick Time Pro - Problem Exporting AVI files to .mov

    Hi all, Here is the problem that has been plaguing me and driving me crazy. hopefully somebody can help me with this.
    I use pinnacle studio 8 to create the avi file, the resulting file size is 1.02GB. Everything works fine in this file audio and video
    Next I use quicktime pro to convert the file to a .mov format and compress the video down. This is where the problem starts. when I try and export the avi to a .mov, the options screen doesn't allow me to select the audio, it says its not there. I can modify all the settings for the video, but it doesn't even recognize the audio.
    It has been doing this for all of my avi videos that are over a gig. It also does this when I try and export an mpeg to a .mov
    also if I do go ahead and export to a .mov file, it compresses the videos down to around 5 to 7mb, where as all my videos that are exported to .mov that do have sound are roughly 20+mb
    Anybody know whats going on? I'm going nuts trying to figure this out.

    Sounds like your AVI isn't really a two track file (audio and video) but rather a muxed MPEG-1 file.
    QuickTime Pro can't extract audio from muxed file formats and that is why it shows no sound options during export.
    MPEG Streamclip (free) can export MPEG-1 to QuickTime formats and extract the audio.

  • I purchased quick time pro, and attempted to download quick time 7, but it says I have quick time x installed.  I deleted quick time x but it still says it is there and will not let me install.

    I purchased quick time pro, and attempted to download quick time 7, but it says I have quick time x installed.  I deleted quick time x but it still says it is there and will not let me install.

    In the optional install items-Quick Time is not an option. I am on Leopard.
    Then you either:
    1) never had QT X installed and could not have deleted it since QT X is only installed on Snow Leopard (OS X v10.6), Lion (OS X v10.7), and Mountain Lion (OS X v10.8) systems or...
    2) you are actually running Snow Leopard (OS X v10.6) and not Leopard (OS X v10.5) as you just stated.
    Please confirm which statment is actually correct.

  • Previously purchased quick time pro and lost it

    I purchased Quick Time Pro for Windows 7 and then lost it when my computer crashed.  I have recovered the product key from my Apple account but I can't figure out how to use the key to recover my product.  It just keeps asking me to buy the program again.

  • Quick Time Pro and DivX on PC

    Hi Guys
    I have QuickTime Pro and DivX on Win XP Pro. I need to output some divX files from a .mov file in QTP but cannot seem to find that as an option even though I have downloaded the full divX too. Is this only available on the Mac or am I missing something?
    Many thanks

    The registration includes a name and a number and both must match exactly the info in the email.
    Use copy/paste to enter them to avoid errors.

  • Quick Time Pro and MPEG-2 Playback plugin

    Hi,
    I recently purchased Quicktime pro and the MPEG-2 playback plug in. I installed them no problem but when I try and playback a .vob file that on my harddrive, it seem to be playing but all I get is a white screen.
    When I play the file using VLC media player it works fine.
    Once I get it playing I want to convert it to a quicktime movie file
    Thanks for any help
    Regards
    Liam

    Similar problem here, only on a Mac. Someone gave me a .vro file with home movies on it, so I bought the MPEG-2 plug-in and now QuickTime crashes immediately whenever I try to play the video.
    Some relevant information from the crash:
    Exception: EXCBADACCESS (0x0001)
    Codes: KERNPROTECTIONFAILURE (0x0002) at 0x00000004
    Thread 0:

    [etc.]
    Aside from the fact that I can't view the video, I'm less than pleased that I spent $20 only to have it crash instead of tell me it's an unsupported video format.

  • Quick time pro and latest itunes release

    what is this - Itunes tells me that if I update Itunes - I'll have to repurchase Quicktime Pro - Am I misunderstanding something here, or is Apple trying to rip me off.
    I'll appreciate if sombody can tell me if I'm off on a tangent here.
    thanks

    If you have version 5 or 6 of QuickTime Pro and new registration will be required.
    If you have version 7 Pro no new registration is needed.

  • Quick Time 7 Pro not displaying .mov files

    I just purchased Quick Time Pro to make movies that were transferred from my video camera in a .mov format.  Prior to purchasing and installing I had an older version of Quick Time and I was able to view the movies with no problem.  Now the screen is simply black but the audio is still playing.  I downloaded a file to a thumb drive to double check on my lap top with an older version of Quick TIme and was able to view with no problem.  What am I doing wrong with the new install?
    Thank for you help.

    The files are in MPEG-4 format. And they do play perfectly in player. However the dimensions are wrong for my Ipod Nano 3rd gen. The edges are cut off. I am under the impression that if I export the file from QT7P i will be able to convert the file type to fit the screen of the Ipod nano.

  • How do I save movies puchased from Apple as .avi file from Quick Time Pro?

    Help! I've purchased Quick Time Pro in hopes of converting my movies purchased from I Tunes to .avi files so they would be viewable through a media player. I exported the movie as discribed through Quick Time Pro and upon completion only get a white screen with no sound when the .avi file is opened. I'm concerned because this was an Apple file to start with and the necessary codecs (or whatever I need) should be included in the Quick Time Pro. What's the deal? Thanks.

    The terminology is known as "Fair Use" and the U.S. Supreme Court had to get involved to sort the mess out.
    When the first VHS and BetaMax "recorders" allow people to capture TV broadcasts and use them as they see fit (view at a different time than intended) these new "rules" were established.
    Today no one thinks twice to use these "time shifting" devices (TiVo and others) to first "record" and then fast forward through content (skipping the people that really pay for the distribution by bypassing the commercials).
    When you buy a DVD the "rules" say you get the right to view it on a DVD player or on your computer (also using DVD player software).
    But, even though you "bought it", you never get the rights to change, edit, modify or convert it to fit your Fair Use rights.
    The original poster wanted to convert some one else's file to another format. Apple doesn't own it (it only "sells" it). QuickTime Pro can't be used because it follows these "rules" regarding true ownership of the content (the copyright holders).
    Since they have only purchased the right to "view" the file in the format is was sold (CD, DVD or iTunes purchase) they do not get the right to convert or edit the file.

  • Quick Time Pro wont save edited 3GPP file

    Hello All. I just bought Quick Time Pro, and I want to edit a video I took on my cell phone (just delete the last few seconds). I open the 3GPP file, set the in and out markers, and select Trim to Selection. Then I tried to save the file to my desktop both with its current name, and with a new name. I dont get any error when I click save, but there is no new file if I change the name, and the changes dont save if I leave the file name as it was.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Heya. I have a similar problem, about the first posted here. Let me explain: My brother has deleted quick time 2 weeks ago by mistake, and then I had to uninstall everything and reinstall. The problem is, I've done it 3 times already, but the iTunes doesn't work yet. It says that there's an error in quick time, then, when I try opening quick time, it says "QuickTime failed to initialize. Error # -2093" and all those things about making sure if it's really instaled... and it is.
    I also went to see the problem directly on the Quick Time Preferences, in its configuration... when I select "Audio", it says: "Buffer overrun detected!
    Program: C:\WINDOWS\system32\rundll32.exe
    A buffer overrun has been detected which has corrupted the program's internal state. The program cannot safely continue execution and must be now terminated."
    What can I do to solve this? I need some help here =(

    Make sure you're entering in both the user name and key code exactly as in the email Apple sent you. Any error in either, including leaving off a salutation (for instance, if the email says "Mr. John Smith") will cause the registration to error.
    If you continue to have problems, or for future questions, I'd suggest you start a new topic with your issue (use the "Post a new topic" link at the top of each main topic page). It's generally better to ask a question as a new topic rather than as a reply in someone else's thread. It's more courteous to the original poster, and is more likely to get your question the attention it deserves.
