Quicktime - 50 on 'share'

I am trying to export / share a sequence and keep getting the same error at the same 18% mark no matter what 'share' setting I use.  

To fix export issues, I suggest you try these steps:
Trash preferences. (Use Digital Rebellion's Preference Manager.)
Repair permissions in DIsk Utility.
Transcode media to Pro Res (optimized).
Deplete project and event render files.
Create a new project and paste a copy of the problem project into it.
Uninstall FCP, using this utility app again, from Digital Rebellion. Download the app again from the App Store to reinstall.
Good luck.

  • I burnt a dvd from a file I exported from quicktime using the share with apple and pc option.  It was burnt directly from the finder. The dvd works perfectly on my mac, and also runs in my windows, but the sound in my windows pc is stammered.

    This is file I created in SnapzPro (which was saved as a Quicktime mov - Animation) of a Powerpoint Presentation.

    Jon, how do I re-compress the Snapz data for dvd playback?
    That depends on your specific work flow strategy. I normally perform the processing in two stages if editing is involved or in a single stage if I don't plan to trim, title, add a narration track, add special effects, and/or add filters to the Snapz Pro X captured screen data.
    In the two-stage process you export the captured data to an intermediate low-compression, high-quality fomat. (This can be the default settings for Snaps Pro X or a more modern editing specific format like ProRes 422/Linear PCM depending on the codec components for which your system is configured and your personal editing preferences.) The Snapz Pro X intermediate file is then edited in the application of your choice and the results are re-compressed to your final target compression format.
    In any case, whether you are re-compressing the data using QT 7 Pro, iMovie, GarageBand, MPEG Streamclip, Snapz Pro X, or similar third-party app that accesses the built-in OS X QT routines, the export process is essentially the same. Whether you use a "Movie to MPEG-4" or "Movie to QT Movie" export, you must export to a data rate limited, multi-pass H.264/AAC compression combination to take advantage of the "Optimize of CD/DVD" option. Specific data rate limits depend on the playback dimensions of the file you are creating, the minimum level of quality you will accept, and the playback speed of the hardware to be used. (I normally target 4X-8X settings for SD content but if you know the recipient has a higher rated optical drive and your content is HD, then you can use higher encode settings for improved quality.)
    I captured the slideshow again in Snapz, and saved it as H264/AAC. Is this good enough?
    If you did not specifically use the "Optimize for..." feature, then the file is automatically targeted for "Computer" playback which assumes playback is from an hard drive which has greater bandwidth/faster throughput than an optical media player. If the target display dimensions are resonably small, the the contextual nature of the H.264 video encoder may or may not be within the playback limitations of an optical drive usually depending on the encode matrix dimensions, graphic complexity of the source data, overall brightness of the scenes, and limitations you may have place on the target file—i.e., the larger the encoding dimensions, the faster the data date and the less likely the file will be compatible with optical drive playback without having to constantly interrupt playback to cache/rebuffer additional data. However, you can always tell the recipient that if this happens, he or she should simply copy the movie file from the CD/DVD to their hard drive for playback.
    What now? Do I open it in Quicktime and use the "share for mac and pc", then right-click on it in the finder and "burn to disc?"
    What you do next depends on how you plan to burn the file. The steps explained above allows you to create a file that is compatible with playback from an optical drive in a QT Player app but is not authored for playback from a commercial DVD Player. Your next step is to burn that file to an optical disc that can be read by your recipient's computer. I my case, I normally burn the disc using a hybrid (HFS Plus/ISO 9660) format which supports HFS Plus, ISO-9660, Rock Ridge, and Joliet with Rock Ridge file systems. How you do this is up to you. You can, for instance, use a third-party app like Toast or Dragon Burn to create a data disc; create/burn an image file with your Disk Utility app (this is a good option if you plan to burn several discs now and/or in the future); create a named "Burn" folder, drop the file to it, and press the burn button; or simply insert a blank optical media disc into you optical drive, change the default disc name to whatever you want, drop your file to the blank media's Finder window, and press the "Burn" button. (NOTE: Burn options may differ depending on the software installed on your system and/or the version of OS X under which you may be operating.)
    Dont see any specs re playback from an optical disc drive? The slideshow is only 3 min long, and I want to avoid turning it into a video DVD using iDVD, iMovie etc, as the quality of the pictures and type degrades badly. Thanks for the help. Been struggling with this for weeks.
    As noted above, this is an encode setting that only becomes active when you are targeting your H.264/AAC encode for multi-pass/data rate limited compression. When active, the "Optimize for..." pop-up allows you to select "computer" (targets playback from a hard drive), "CD/DVD" (targets playback from optical media), or "Streaming" (targets playback from a realtime streaming server) options. This option prevents data rate excursions from exceeding limits normally associated with each of the named types of playback. This option has nothing to do with the file system used to burn the media disc which determines which platforms/OS can read the disc and the file it contains.

  • Quicktime 7 Pro Share: how to set to Outlook for Mac

    Currently when I "share" to email it defaults to Apple Mail. How do I set it so that it sends as an attachment to Outlook?

    Share via Mail in QuickTIme Player is hard-coded to use Mail in Mac OS X and cannot be used with another mail application by any means I know of. If you need to use Outlook, export the movie in an appropriate format and attach it to the mail message in Outlook manually.
    Regards.

  • Quicktime Pro 7 "Share" Option Missing

    Hi,
    I just purchased Quicktime Pro 7 for Windows specifically so I could share QT files via email.
    When I click on "File" according to what I've read there should be a "Share" option, but there isn't one.
    Basically I'm trying to take 4GB or 8GB files and share them for review by clients.

    Try this codec, Perian. It will replace the DivX and XviD codecs but not the Flip4Mac codec. You should remove both the DivX and XviD codecs. Then install the Perian component...repair permissions...restart your computer.
    http://perian.org/#detail
    Hope this fixes your problem. This usually will fix problems with avi's. If not keep the Perian component installed. And we'll try something else.
    If you have to come back for another fix. Open the question video in Quicktime, do a command+i to find out what the codec in the avi is...and report that in here.

  • Quicktime movie wont share with iTunes

    When I try to share my movie with iTunes it appears in music as a  .m4v but not in movies.  Audio plays fine but there is no video. 
    I have tried creating the .m4v via the menu and short cut icon from QT.  I have tried using import to library and drag and drop to get the file into iTunes.
    The movie is a home recording.  Edited in FCE and then exported as a QT movie.
    I am running OSX 10.7.5, QT Player 10.1 and iTunes 11.0.4
    Any ideas?

    I should have said that previously I have been able to import home movies into iTunes.
    You used to be able to import AVI wrapped movies into iTunes also—but not any more. Basically, iTunes has become more and more a "funnel" for mobile files compressed specificly for mobile device (iPad, iPhone and iPod Touch) and TV playback. You used to able import almost any non-muxed format to iTunes that was compatible with your system's QT codec component configuration and it would play in the QT 7 based version of iTunes. Unfortunately, as part of the transition from QT 7 to QT X technologies, iTunes itself has been modified to limit what it will accept. For instance, I just ran a fiew quick tests and found that DV/DV (DV), DVCPRO/PCM (MOV), MJPEG/AAC (MJPG or MOV), and PNG/AAC (MOV) files no longer import to the latest version of iTunes under Mountain Lion. So, to say the least, Apple is continuing to refine what iTunes can and cannot import in terms of compression formats and file types. That is probably why they added and expected users to employ the "Share with iTunes" export option—i.e., to not only send files to iTunes indirectly but to also ensure that the file received is in the default H.264/AAC (M4V) compressed data format and file type that iTunes expects to play, sync, and/or stream to other devices and/or computers.
    How would I do this?
    As always, that depends on your specific fork flow and needs. If you are saving your edited FCE content to a QT (MOV) file in its current (but as yet unstated) compression format because you need it for some other application in that compression format, then simply open the file in an app like the QT 7 or QT X player and share/export the content to iTunes or a specific iTunes device-compatible (iPhone, iPod, TV, Podcast, iTunes, etc.) preset and import the new file to iTunes manually or import automatically. If the sole use of the file is iTunes, then you can export an iTunes compatible file directly from FCE.

  • How can I get iPhoto to share videos with iTunes automatically?

    When I take a video with my camera and upload to iphoto, is there any way that I can get the video to automatically copy into itunes? At the moment I have to open the video in quicktime and then 'share with itunes' for each individual video that i shoot.
    There must be a better way?

    iPhoto doesn't import anything unless you tell it to. All it's doing is offering to import. No you can't stop that window appearing. You'll just have to click cancel.
    iPhoto Menu -> Provide iPhoto Feedback
    is the route to the developers for feature requests.

  • What is the best way to email a video from iPhoto? It won't let me share a video!

    what is the best way to email a video from iPhoto? It won't let me share a video!

    Size is not the issue. In the old iPhoto you used to be able to share a video and it would compress it to fit an email friendly size. It doesn't do that anymore from iPhoto. I miss that feature. I have to export the video from iPhoto to my desktop then take into the old Quicktime 7 to share in email. Crazy.
    It shouldn't be that complicated. I shouldn't have to find a work around. I guess apple wants to put  you in a box so you have to do it "their way" via uploading to iWeb or iCloud instead of emailing video.
    I don't like those options being taken away.  While the quality may suffer by compressing for email, it is still the most direct and unconvoluted way of sharing something fairly quickly. I don't want to have to post to YouTube or Vimeo or iCloud and send a link. Just compress the video and hit send in an email and be done with it.

  • Share selected clips only button not enabled for videocamera

    iMovie HD 06. I have 3 adjacent, no transitions clips from one iMovie that I am trying to "share" back to the video camera (I had manipulated/extracted and added audio effects to these 3 clips, which don't cut and paste from existing iMovie to a new project) plan was to share to tape, then reimport from tape back to a different iMovie (to at least get the audio back). Unfortunately the "share selected clips only" button is never enabled. Really don't want to share entire movie. Any ideas?

    Well that would make too much sense! iLife 05 Quicktime did not maintain widescreen so I was not keen on trying, but (as you probably knew) iLife '06 quicktime is a nicer beast. Actually went into Apple Store and turned out that,more or less, a combination of forum suggestions........WORKED! So to others that have not been able to cut and paste clips that have had audio extracted, etc.with iLife '06: put playhead a bit before your targeted consecutive clips, click and drag from below the audio tracks upwards and to the end of the target. File, Export, Quicktime, Full Quality, Share. Pick your location to share to. And there you go. Then open a new/existing project, Import (find your desired clips), Open. Your clips with audio, special effects all import without a hitch.
    Have you tried it?

  • FCP 7 -  Share task w/ some bugs

    Share... is really a good feature in the new FCP 7 but, I think, it has some bugs
    First, in the "Share status window" never starts a progress bar. It always looks like as it were preparing but is transcoding. you should open "Batch Montitor" app to see what is happening.
    Second, if you check "Open with Quicktime Player" the "Share status window", the window will keep open all the time. When you check in "Batch Monitor" you see the status at 95% and nothing happen but if you check the movie in the finder it is finished and well done. You must cancel the job either in the "Share status window" or in the "Batch Monitor" app.
    Did someone experience the same problem?

    Thanks for the reply, Johnny.
    I wasn't saying AC3 s*u*c*k*s. And really.. Why is that word censored? I didn't do that.
    I was saying it ***** that you ONLY have the option of AC3 with the "Share to blu-ray" feature.
    And yea, I'm sure I would never know the differene, and especially not my grandparents with their home movies.
    But it just seems d*u*m*b (can I say that?) to be going through all this trouble for a "lossless" lineage, ie. HD camera, FCP, Blu-ray burner/player, and have to compress the audio. Isn't that one of the main advantages of blu-ray?! Quality? Wether we can detect it or not?! Ha!. Okay..
    I thought an easy workaround would be to export the audio to AIFF and drop it in.
    No idea why it's drifting....but yes, in the end i may settle.
    Though I'll feel cheated! Guess that's what I get for loving BOTH Apple and Blu-ray....
    If anyone has other processes of getting good 24p to Blu-ray, please share!
    Thanks again.

  • Quicktime Sharing Feature doesn't extract sound

    Anyone know the fix for sharing movie clips with quicktime? The compression on the Video is working fine but the sound seems to be dissappearing. I'm importing Movie Clips into Iphoto then playing them with Quicktime, clicking on share to e mail and the sound is gone when it's moved to Mail.
    Thanks for the help.

    QuickTime Pro can't extract audio from muxed file formats.
    Use MPEG Streamclip (free) to export your file.

  • Sharing movies with itunes through quicktime

    Hi :-)
    I apologise if this has already been asked and answered but I've searched through the boards and can't find anything.
    I upgraded to Mountain Lion a couple of days ago.  Up until the upgrade, if I wanted to watch a movie I had stored on my Macbook (in avi format) with my iPad and iPhone, all I had to do was open it in Quicktime, click on 'share' and select itunes.  The file would then be converted and appear automatically in my itunes library.
    Since my upgrade tho, the only options I'm getting when I click 'share' are 'email, message, airdrop, facebook, youtube, vimeo and flickr'.  How do I share my files with itunes now??
    Thanks.  I'd be grateful for any help :-)

    Since my upgrade tho, the only options I'm getting when I click 'share' are 'email, message, airdrop, facebook, youtube, vimeo and flickr'.  How do I share my files with itunes now??
    Try the File Menu "Export To > iTunes..." option.

  • IMovie HD to quicktime, It will not let me create my full sized movie

    I created an iMovie video on iMovie HD and I was trying to convert it to a quicktime with the share option, and when i recreate it as a quicktime it only shows about 1/3 of the actual video then stops on a frame and just plays the music. I am guessing that it is because the video is to big and it can't hold that much memory, but it is only 5 minutes long. What should I do? I have tried doing full quality and expert settings and all that stuff but it just will not work. Help please

    I suggest you ask your question in the [iMovie 6 Discussions here|http://discussions.apple.com/forum.jspa?forumID=1115]
    People who use the old version are more likely to see it there.

  • IMovie Export to QuickTime Error 2002

    Hi, I am trying to export a project through the QuickTime option in >Share but every time after hte completion of the export, I get this error message 2002 (I think it was 2002 - I stupidly dismissed the window before seeing the number).
    Anyone has any idea what's wrong? I export seamlessly to iTunes though.

    I've seen the same error reported earlier tonight on this forum. Error -50 is a user parameter error and is likely associated with trying to write illegal characters to a non HFS formatted disk, would this make any sense to you in your present workflow.
    Actually I see your error is a 50 (not a -50) or is that a typo. That's a networking error, which doesn't make any sense to me at all unless you are trying to write to a network device which has been removed and I was of the opinion im08 doesn't work over a network, indeed doesn't even give the option to try.

  • Can't export imovie to quicktime

    When I try to convert my imovie to quicktime, I go to share under the file menu and selct CD-ROM in the compression menu. But when I click the share tab my movie is grayed out and I cannot select for transfer to quicktime.
    Please tell me what I am doing wrong.
    Cheers
    mrjazz

    You actually could have gone under the same file menu, or the share menu a couple of toolbar menus down, and rather than import or share to Quicktime, this time share it to iDVD. iDVD will open automatically and then you can select a theme, add photos, etc.
    You can drag a QT file from the desktop or wherever into iDVD, but since you first saved your movie as a Quicktime file with CD-ROM quality, you probably do not want to use this file. You would want it to be Full Quality. Then you could open iDVD, create a new project, and simply drag that file into the window. But again, why not just export from the iMovie application directly to iDVD?

  • In QuickTime Pro (v7.6.2) Error message:  Failed: qtKitErrorCatchAll(-2125)

    G'day everyone,
    I made a video project in iMovie '09. My intention is to burn this video at the end on a DVD to watch it via a wide screen TV.
    What did I do? (reference to: David Glover "Creating higher -quality HD video with iMovie '09")
    1. I exported the video, using QuickTime, to the "Apple Intermediate Codec" at the full 1920x1080 size.
    Therefore I chose "Export using QuickTime" in the Share menu of iMovie. etc. etc.
    2. Than I had to deinterlace the video with the JES Deinterlacer.
    3. The last step to perform was to compress and scale the video with QuickTime Pro.
    During this last step I got (after about three hours! and having done already about 80% of the process) the message: Failed: qtKitErrorCatchAll(-2125)
    Needless to write perhaps, very frustrating, because it took 2h15' for step 1, 1h10' for step 2 and step 3 about three hours and than having the message as mentioned above!
    Very much appreciated if someone can help me out!

    Much appreciated your quick reaction QuickTimeKirk.
    if there is another way to produce a fine DVD after using iMovie to create a video project please let us know!
    We make a lot of video footage around Australia from now on and we are looking for a method to produce from every journey a DVD which we (and our friends and relatives) can watch via TV.
    The camcorder we use is: Sony Handycam Super Steady Shot HDR-SR11 1920x1080i HD recording
    Have a look at our private website: http://web.me.com/gertdewilde/ReflectionsofAustralia/Welcome.html
    To answer your question:
    We started with an iMovie project.
    In step 1 we selected the full 1920x1080 size
    Format: Integer (Little Endian)
    Sample rate: 48.000 kHz (Recommended)
    Sample size: 16-bit
    Channels: Stereo (L R)
    In step 2 we selected the Block match threshold: 300, Gamma 2.22
    In step 3 we chose "Movie to MPEG-4", Video format H.264 Data Rate:16200, Image Size 1920x1080 HD,
    Under H.264 Video Options we chose Restrict Profile(s) to Main en Encoding Mode to Faster encode (single-pass)
    In the streaming tab we turned off "Enable streaming"
    I hope this the info you want to give us a helping hand!
