QuickTime exporting a trimmed .mov file

I've successfully trimmed a .mov file to the beginning and ending that I want. But when I come to export it (save it) and pick Format for Mac & PC for some reason it automatically exports the file as audio only. The trimmed version of the orginal has both audio and video, but the trimmed exported file only contains audio. Anyone know why even though I'm not choosing to export it as audio only?

  • Quicktime SANYO Xacti MP4 movie file Audio Sync Bug..

    Hello. I am awkward in English.

    Thank you for any help you can provide..

    Open the movie in the QuickTime Player and Select Export -> Sound to AIFF.
    Drop the exported AIFF file into iTunes.
    Make sure the iTunes CD Import Settings in Prefs is set to the MP3 encoder.
    Right-Click on the AIFF file in the iTunes Library display and select Create MP3 Version.

  • Exporting slideshow to .mov file using Ken Burns looks low res?

    I've created a slide show using the Ken Burns effect exclusively, and after I export as an .mov file and pull that into iDVD (or watching it in QT player) the moves look like a very low resolution image was used instead of the high res files that I know are there. Any ideas of how to fix this? or is this just the way iPhoto handles the files when using Ken Burns FX.

    Have your tried the procedure that seems to solve a variety of problems for the iLife applications? Quit iPhoto and delete your iPhoto preferences. To do this, go to your username> library> preferences> com.apple.iphoto.plist. Delete this file. Then reopen iPhoto; it will create a new preference file with all of the default settings.
    Ken Burns also...images do not fit to screen any more.
    I am not aware of an option to make the Ken burns effect "fit to screen". This effect is applied in a somewhat random fashion, so what you see on one playing of your slideshow can be slightly different when viewed again. You can avoid undesirable changes, like cutting off the tops of heads, by manually applying the KB effect to photos in question. The control is at the bottom of the window when in the slideshow mode. When you are satisfied with the way the slideshow looks, export it as a QuickTime movie.
    I hope this helps.

  • After recent QuickTime updates fcp and QuickTime will not open .mov files captured on my FS-H200. Iran

    After recent QuickTime updates fcp and QuickTime will not open .mov files captured on my FS-H200. I put this onthe quick time thread and they sent me here.

    and NEVER do a software update unless you've got a clone of your startup drive so you can restore your system to it's working state if something goes wrong.

    Hi...I have the OS X v10.6.8 but my QuickTime is not playing .mov files. How can I fix this?
    Depends of the specific kind of file you are trying to play. MOV refers to the file container. Any data compatible with the system used to create the file can be placed in an MOV file. If you don't have the same codecs available on your computer to play back the file or if your version of the QT player does not expect expect the encoded data to be in an MOV file container, then it cannot/will not play the file. Use the Finder Info window, media player Inspector/Information window, or a dedicated utility to determine what compression formats were used to create the MOV file and then install the required codec(s) if available.

  • Export a Flash Movie File

    Can you Export Flash Movie files to other formats?? Don see
    an Export to other File options.
    Would like to Export a Flash Movie or SWF file to a Quicktime
    or IPOD MPEG File.
    Anyone know where to do this? Do not see an Export to File
    option to that Format on Flash Pro CS.
    Thanks

    Without seeing your movie, its difficult to tell where the
    problem may be. My first guess is that the data rate is to high.
    You will probably need to choke that back in some way: lower the
    data rate for the compressor, reduce the frame rate, reduce the
    image size, reduce the color depth, etc.
    When you select to export to QT, for example, a new window
    opens to let you select some basic settings. At the lower right of
    that window is a button titled "Quicktime Settings...". Click that
    button and a new window will open that will allow you to set the
    compressor, frame rate, quality, etc.

  • Export 16:9 .move file with FCP

    Hello,
    Since May this year I cannot export my FCP 16:9 project to a 16:9 .mov file anymore. The last good one I exported was May 4th, 2009. When I open this QuickTime file with FCP it is widescreen. I exported the same project on May 27th. That .mov file is letterboxed when opening it with FCP.
    I never used QuickTime Pro because this program could and can only display my videos letterboxed.
    I tried several options to try to export the movie 16:9 (Current Settings, DV PAL 48 kHz Anamorphic).
    Someone advised me to use the Cmd-J option in Quicktime, but before May 27th, the export was good and I could use it in iDVD. But since that date it is not possible anymore. When importing the movie directly in iDVD, it is 4:3 format. And after changed it to 1024 with Cmd-J in QuickTime it is halfwidescreen in iDVD (looks like 14:9 i.s.o. 16:9)
    How can I get my old good working version of FCP back I had on May, 4th and earlier ?
    Or how can I export to QuickTime movie that gives me a 16:9 video again as it was before May 27th ?
    Thanks,
    Hubert

    Hello,
    I tried a new 16:9 project. In this new project FCP the video is exported in 16:9 format.
    So there must be somewhere a 16:9/4:3 option switch in my old 16:9 project.
    Where can this option be set to 16:9 ?
    Thanks,
    Hubert

  • How to export as a movie file

    Hello- I am a teacher and make a dvd for my kids with all of their pictures and videos on it at the end of the year. As I was taught in the apple store, I made the video in imovie and then added the music in garageband. Today I started this project, and garageband no longer has "export movie" as a choice, only music choices. Is there any way to still export this as a movie file? I believe it was a quicktime .mov file. Any help would be appreciated.

    Today I started this project, and garageband no longer has "export movie" as a choice,
    Are you now using GarageBand 10.0?
    Then import the movie,
    Track menu > Show Movie Track
    File menu > Movie > Open Movie
    Mix the sound track song
    Then use the "File" menu > Movie > Export Audio to Movie.
    This will write the audio aa an audio track into the imported movie.

  • Quicktime won't play .mov files?

    I have the latest Quicktime - Quicktime Player 7. I'm trying to open an HD 720p30 .mov file in Quicktime, but the screen comes up white, seconds later turns black and stays that way. I can hear the audio, just can't see anything.
    I'm using a PC, but the files came from a MAC. When I exported the files from the MAC I selected the export for MAC & PC Compatibility. What to do?
    Could it be the video card? Do I need a diff. video codec besides H.264?
    Please help...

    My guess is that you made the file using Final Cut (or have it installed on the Mac). You've got a pretty "raw" file with nearly no compression.
    HDV is an editing codec and it isn't available in QuickTime for Windows (or Mac's without FCP).
    Use H.264 (and some audio compression, too) to view it on a PC with QuickTime Player.

  • Export to QT Movie/File Size Triples?

    Hello fine folks,
    Having a problem exporting a long sequence out of FCP to a QuickTime Movie (NOT self contained), for import into iDVD.
    The final file that is created is 22 gb! Way too large to use easily in iDVD. (And way too slow in creating it, obviously.) I also tried it as self-contained, but that was so slow that I canceled it (45 minutes, and 15 percent done). I am using chapter markers.
    The assets in total are only about 7.5 gb, and I'm not using all of the assets, just edited parts of them.
    I have done this before, but not on my laptop, as I am doing now (on the road for the holidays).
    Anyone have any advice for what I'm doing wrong/what the issue is?

    Hi Jim,
    Thanks for the response.
    I'm using a PowerBook G4 1.5, with 1 gb of ram. Using FCP 4.5. I have only the internal drive, so all files are on the system drive.
    I'm intrigued by your idea of rendering. I had problems rendering. Quite a bit of it needed to be rendered (especially audio -- there are many mp3s in the sequence). I would select render all, and it would render a bit of it, then quit with a "general error." I had to select render all several times ... actually once for each mp3 in the sequence -- before the whole thing was finally done. I've never had to do this before.
    (Another issue I was having -- not sure if this helps -- my sequence contains a couple of old home movies transferred into dv ... they have audio files attached, but the home movies are silent. So before I placed these assets into FCP, I opened the home movie files in QTPro, to export them without sound/get rid of the soundtracks. I have also done this before on my MacPro, with success. But on my laptop, this exporting from QTPro was so slow and ponderous that I gave up ... it would have taken me three or four hours just to export a 2.6. gb file into another file without audio. So again, I gave up.
    There is something going on that I can't quite figure out.)
    Many thanks.

  • Quicktime won't play .mov files recorded on Olympus recorder

  • Can't export 25 minute .MOV file to .AVI

    I am trying to export a 25 minute QuickTime .MOV file to a .AVI file and am having major problems.
    The .AVI file I get is about 5.21GB but only contains the first 5 minutes of the video.
    I have tried exporting directly from Final Cut Pro and from within QuickTime Pro (both Mac and Windows versions) with the same results. I have even tried using programs such MPEGStreamClip with no luck.
    My export settings:
    VIDEO
    Compression: DV/DVCPRO - NTSC
    Quality: Best
    Frame Rate: 29.97
    Scan Mode: Interlaced
    Aspect Ratio: 4:3
    SOUND
    Format: Uncompressed
    Sample Rate: 48kHz
    Sample size: 16
    Channels: 2
    Is there anything I can do to fix this? I need the .AVI and this is a major hassle.
    Thanks.
    Brian McKechnie

    I use the Export > Movie to AVI and then select the settings mentioned.
    Going straight from the Final Cut Pro timeline does not work.
    Exporting as a QuickTime movie from FCP and then trying to export the AVI from within QuickTime does not work either.
    Settings for the QuickTime file that FCP exports:
    DV
    720 x 480 (640 x 480)
    16-bit integer (Big Endian)
    Stereo
    48.000kHz
    29.97FPS
    It seems that this only happens on files that are longer then 18 mins. I need the AVI in order to convert the file to WMV in Windows Media Encoder as Flip4Mac Studio Pro HD 2.0.2 exports files with green blotches all over it.

  • Quicktime won't recognize MOV files?

    QT won't open MOV files, and gives a -2048 error that says it is not a file it recognizes. I know other people who are able to open the same files fine on their Mac computers, so I don't think it's a problem with the file...

    The -2048 error message usually means the file is MPEG-2 format.
    QuickTime can't view MPEG-2 without additional software ($20).

  • Quicktime won't open Mov files

    Hi there,
    I am trying to get files from work onto my home computer.
    At work, we use Windows and Edius GrassValley (6?) to edit videos. I can convert the files to a Quicktime before I take them home and I've done this several times before.
    But now it won't let me open the files in either Quicktime or iMovie. I'm not certain what I'm doing wrong, I don't believe anything has changed on my computer since the last time I brought home some files.
    When I try to open them with Quicktime, it just says it's not a movie file even though the tag says it's a .mov and I converted the file to a quicktime file before putting it on my flash drive.
    I'm currently running Mac OS 10.6.8, Quicktime 7.6.6 and iMovie 8.0.6 (I know, it's ancient!).
    If any of you lovely people could at least point me in the right direction, I would really appreciate it. Thanks!

    Hello Niebby,
    According to the description of the issue provided looks like some change has been done in your system. Most probably a change in the installed codecs. I would suggest you to check whether the required codecs are installed under the folder "/Library/QuickTime".
    If reinstallation is needed you can check this post "QucikTime Codecs Installation" to get some details about how to proceed.

  • Quicktime will not play .mov files since Lion installation

    When using Quicktime 10.6, I am receiving the error message "...file could not be opened. A required codec isn't available." when attempting to open .mov files.  Prior to installing OS X Lion, there were no issues with playing .mov files.

    I'm having the same problem. Using a clean install of Mac OS X (10.7) Lion and QuickTime 10.1. 
    If I go to finder:
    I can click on Icon's Play arrow and the Movie will play in the icon.
    I can click on the file icon and press the spacebar and the file will play in QuickLook.
    If I doubleclick on the icon to open the file in QuickTime, I get the "...file could not be opened. A required codec isn't available." message.
    If I right click on the icon and click open with... QuickTime, I get the "...file could not be opened. A required codec isn't available." message.
    MBP, Mac OS X (10.7)
