Quicktime codec for fcp files?

is there a way to view newer fcp files with out purchasing fcp?
any iMovie plugins or quicktime or quicktime pro codecs available?
I have fcp 6.0.6 on an old G5 dual processor runing Tiger 10.4.11, but now have a new MacBook Pro but not newest fcp and some one just gave me a newer fcp project on a firewire drive to simply author a DVD which I find I am unable to accomplish.
Any free or inexpensive solutions?

Transfer your FCP license to the new machine and upgrade?
Apple will allow that, I've done it before, for Aperture.
The new MacBook Pro quads are like twice as fast as the Dual G5 processors anyway.

Where can I get codec for ISO files?Premiere Elements

An ISO is actually not a video file, it is a container... somewhat like a ZIP file that contains other files
I do not know if it will PLAY what is inside an ISO, but I use Imgburn to write an ISO to DVD
Read http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1322583 for notes on installing Imgburn WITHOUT any toolbar add-ons... Set Imgburn to use the slowest burn speed your drive and media will use... I set my burn speed to 1x and let Imgburn adjust to the actual minimum

HDV Quicktime Codec for PC

Hi
I am in the middle of editing a project on FCP 5 and need to export part of it to a PC.
The footage is HDV 1080 50i and for speed I would prefer to keep it that way.
I'm having trouble finding the Quicktime codec to allow the footage to be palyed back on the PC, can anyone tell me where to find this???
Thanks
Ajay

I think you're talking about exporting to wmv. Flip4Mac Studio Pro HD is a good start. If you want better than that, check out Episode.

Codec for .avi files

Hey; this may be an easy or confusing question, unfortunately I don't have alot of time on my hands lately, but i'm looking to view an .avi file and quicktime says i need a codec to view it; i click the link, and theres several codecs, some free, some not, any idea what codec i need to view .avi files, is it free, certain site? thnx, [email protected]

Microsoft, the inventor of the Audio Video Interleave format, no longer supports any of its uses.
They write proprietary codecs for all of their software including most video formats.
They've written their own version of codecs for the MPEG-4 format which also don't conform to the industry standards.
AVI is a "bucket". You can fill a bucket with water, dirt or strawberries. But it's still just a bucket.
Shame on Microsoft for even using the phrase AVI in any of its software.
Apple invented the .mov container and still supports its use. It is also just a bucket as is its .mp4 file extension.
At least .dv still means something that users can understand. And DivX is a bucket that wants to be a file extension. At least they know the difference.

Quicktime codecs for reading XDCAM footage

Recently updated the software on my Mac Pro tower (circa 2008) and now Quicktime only plays audio of XDCAM footage, but not the video.
Quicktime plays regular mov, mp4 and mpeg videos just fine so I've isolated the probem to just XDCAM 1080 24p footage.
I think the codecs for reading XDCAM footage were lost or overwritten during the update, is there any way to reinstall or retrieve them?
If not what are the proper codecs for Quicktime to play XDCAM footage?

I also had a similar problem to most people here. Cannot playback XDCAM files after upgrading from 10.5.8 to Snow Leopard 10.6.8. I called Apple who suggested a fresh install of Snow Leopard without upgrading the 'ProApps QuickTime Codecs 1.0.3' and copy the contents of the Library/QuickTime form the fresh install into my QT library. However, I decided to seek the file(s) that is the cause which is the AppleHDV.Component file. I copied the faulty one to my desktop (so I had a backup) and downloaed:
PerianXDCam.component.zip -> PerianXDCam.component
PerianHDV.component.zip -> PerianHDV.component
from this website: http://blog.lib.umn.edu/mcfa0086/discretecosine/164630.html
Once unzipped, copy into the Library/QuickTime folder and this should solve your problem, until Apple and Sony resolve this issue.
Good Luck,

Quicktime codecs for divx and other vids

Hi guys,
I have a large collection of videos on my pc and after switching to apple yesterday I realized that I couldn t see most of the vids.
I realise that there seems to be a problem with quicktime 7 ( i have the latest 7.0.3) but is there a codec pack somewhere?
I remember the nimo pack for pc so is there a similar thing for mac?
Thanks a lot!

Clement,
The Beta DivX CODEC for Mac Tiger and QT7 can be found in the DivX Labs website at http://labs.divx.com/?src=footerdivxlabs_from/divx/mac/index.php
I haven't had much luck with it.
If you just want to play the files on your Mac, try the free VLC media player at http://www.videolan.org/vlc/

GB, iWeb keep searching for FCP files in their Media Browsers

I recently (as in yesterday) upgraded to iLife '06. I did this primarily to produce a podcast which would be hosted by my .mac site- using iWeb to create it. I repaired permissions, ran MacJanitor, upgraded, restarted, repaired permissions, ran MacJanitor and openened GarageBand. All was fine. I made a new podcast file, connected my microphone, ready to do a test podcast, when the following suddenly popped up:
Hitting "Stop" didn't do anything.
I waited patiently when eventually this came up:
The options were to search or cancel, but I chose cancel, because I don't need any of my videos (or at least not yet) in GarageBand. The file it is looking for above is a FCP file. It's one of FCP "Render Files" and obviously cannot be read by GarageBand. Unfortunately, after I hit cancel, I get about 7 secs of freedom before a similar message looking for the next of the render files (there are hundreds of them) pops up and then it continues on and on and on...
I don't want GarageBand to process these files, I want it to stop looking! Unfortunately, this same problem occurs with iWeb. So, the two apps I bought iLife for, I can't use. Any guidance in this area would be most appreciated.
JC

Hi, Hangtime
I've just tested the rename approach (simply added an "a" after "Movies" in the folder name)
Garage Band and iWeb no longer scan the folder for "media browser" content after doing so.
It depends a bit on JC's "workflow" which way would be more appropriate. I guess simply moving the problematic FCP files to another would resolve the problem for him as far as Garage Band and iWeb go, on a permanent basis. But he may need the FCP files in the "Movies" folder for other reasons, in which case simply renaming when using Gargeband or iWeb may be quicker. It would be nice to find a more elegant answer though. I wonder if it could be a "mediabrowser" plist issue?
Cheers
Rod

FCP Quicktime Codec for Windows

I have an HD sequence that I exported using Export to Quicktime (movie is self contained); This gives me a .mov file that is uncompressed and has a smaller file size than any other way I export. I tried to play the file at my friends house on his PC but we couldn't. I'm assuming this export method uses a specific codec that my friend doesn't have. If this is the case, do you know if or where he could DL the specific codec. I googled it, but to no avail. If I'm completely off base with the whole codec thing could someone please point me in the right direction? Thanks

Happy to help out, but you need to identify what cam or sequence settings you use to create the HD sequence.
HD means so many things, including HDV and DVCProHD.
What is it?
And what did you choose to export to that create a smaller movie file for use on the PC?
Because it seems you have converted the original footage to something else, otherwise the size would be the same.
You might try an export to h.264 that should work if your friend is using v.7 of QT on Windows.

Quicktime video for .mov files on Windows 8.1 not working

I am using the latest Quicktime (v7.7.5) on a new install of Windows 8.1 and .mov files will play but only the audio works - there is no video. Clearly There is a video codec missing. Can someone at apple tell me what I need so quicktime (and other applications) can play .mov videos on Windows 8.1?
Thank you!!!

Hey Kirk, thank you for your reply. All my windows media players (Windows, Quicktime, Pinnacle Sudio, etc..all only play the audio and not the video. The quicktime player on Windows recogizes a problem and suggests that I goto this website (www.apple.com/quicktime/rescources/components......) and download missing somftware (but gives no indication of what is missing :-)).
So the Windows Quicktime Player shows that the .mov file is made with the Apple Intermediate Codec, 1308 x 736, Millions 16 bit Integer (little Indidan), Sterdo(LR), 48kHz. I also looked at the inspector in the Mac.
This is clearly the issue. I suppose I can always use my Mac to convert files to something more compatible with windows and then move these files. I just find it hard to believe that Apple does not have a windows 8.x version of this codec.

Do i need a codec for avi files to play in flv

i have no mpeg moves files on my computer so when it says browse for your flv file it shows me nothing right.
i have to have flv files already encoded for them to view on my computer right.

If you have a registered version of Flash Professional, it comes with Adobe Media Encoder which you can use to create your FLV files. The following article should help
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flash/quickstart/video_encoder.html
If you don't have Flash Professional, there are other encoders you can use. Riva FLV Encoder works pretty well on AVI, MPEG, Quicktime, WMV. View the online-help for a list of supported codecs.

Quicktime Codec for use on internet

Projects that I have exported as a quicktime files seem to be giving people trouble when downloading. They are exported in h.264. If i used h.263 or
h.261 for export are those codes usable by earlier versions of QT, and would people be able to view them in the case that there only problem is that they don't have QT 7.

As enzo mentions, MPEG-4 is a viable alternative. And will make your files QT 6 compatible.
Another, perhaps more popular, codec is Sorenson Video 3, which is compatible with QT 5(or later. (Though it's a bit dated now, KenStone.net has an awesome article about compressing for the web)
Understand that with each step backwards -- QT7 (h.264) -> QT6 (MPEG-4) -> QT5 (SV3) -- the compression algorithm gets more primitive, so maintaining the same quality is harder to do (at the same file size).

QuickTime Pro for FCP X

I own Final Cut Studio and FCP X. Presumably my license for QuickTime Pro which is tied to ownership of Final Cut Studio is still valid.
A new MacBook Air has Final Cut Pro X on it, and I wish to put a copy of my QuickTime Pro onto that computer.
There appears to be no easy way to put Final Cut Studio onto my Air. I put the DVDs in a computer with DVD drives, access it though the nextwork, see the install program and run into roadblocks that tell me to simply copy the files from the DVDs to my Air to begin.
Does not work that way. The first install DVD can't be copied to the Air. I get this: "The operation can’t be completed because an unexpected error occurred (error code -8058)."
Is there a way to get Apple's attention and allow the Pro features of QT7 to work on my Air without buying it again?

Have you tried the full login including "@me.com or @mac.com"? This seems to work as far as FCP or compressor "recognizing" the MobileMe account. Yet when I do it through compressor, even though it says the job is done and all is well it never actually uploads it to MobileMe. It seems to work fine through FCP though.

How do I get the codec for .mov files recorded on an ipad, so I can edit them in premiere El. 12?

I have .mov files recorded from an ipad with these specs:
AAC, Mono, 44.100 KHZ
H.264 320x568 (yes the ipad was used vertically, not horizontally)
29.96 fps
I want to edit them in premiere 12, but get this error message:
This type of file is not supported or the required codec is not installed.
What are my options? Thanks!

linn749
Thanks for the reply.
As for orientation, there is a rotation feature in Premiere Elements 12....at the Timeline level, you can right click the clip and select Rotate 90 Left or Rotate 90 Right. So that may help.
This is what you may want to try and see what this looks like
1. Open Premiere Elements 12 to its Expert workspace
2. Go to File Menu/New/Project and Change Settings
3. In the Change Settings dialog, change the project preset to NTSC DV Widescreen.
4. Before you exit that area, in the last dialog that you see (new project dialog), make sure you have a check mark next to "Force Selected Project Setting on this Project".
5. Back in the Expert workspace, use Add Media/Files and Folders/ to bring your video into Project Assets from where you will drag it to Video Track 1. We can talk about edits if necessary.
6. Publish+Share/Disc/DVD disc with preset set for NTSC_Widescreen_Dolby DVD.
7. Place your DVD 4.7 GB/120 min disc in the burner, in the burn dialog, have a check mark next to "Fit Content to Available Space". Hit Burn.
If you decide to take the Timeline to YouTube instead,
Publish+Share/Social Websites/YouTube, using Presets = Flash Video for YouTube (Widescreen)
Hit Next and follow the instructions.
(Upload to YouTube from within Premiere Elements 12 has limits of 2 GB and 15 minutes. Anything exceeding that, you need to export to file saved to the computer hard drive and then upload that file to YouTube at the YouTube web site where you might be able to get extended limits.
Please let us know if you are OK with the above information.
Thanks.

Add On...If you want to "decorate" the black borders in the Timeline content, drag the video to Video Track 2 and put a colored background on Video Track 1 directly below the Video Track 2 content.

Quicktime Plugin for FCP

Hello,
I'm interested in developing a simple Quicktime plugin that'll be used in Final Cut Pro (you can do that, right?). The plugin will Export the FCP timeline in a fixed format to a fixed destination with one click. I would like it to add an option in the File > Export menu, like "Export to Server."
I have poked around the Apple Developer site a little bit, but haven't quite been able to figure out how to do this. Does anybody know? Would you mind giving me a general overview of how to do it, with functions names/links or whatever to get me started?
Thanks in advance,
Jeff

Don't know which plugin you purchased...here's the GenArts tutorial
http://www.mytoolfarm.com/video/final-cut-pro-genarts-sapphire-3
If you're talking about the FCP lens flare generator it's a matter of using Keyframes and Scale in the Motion tab as well as personal tastes in the Control tab
