Quicktime Movie created in iMovie plays in FCP timeline but NO AUDIO

I don't get any sound out of the Quicktime movie I made in iMovie when I drag it into Final Cut Pro. I get the red line indicating that it needs to be rendered, but even after I render, there is no sound.
Can this be remedied?
Rx

I got the movie into FCP a couple of different ways, hearing no audio the first way then trying to bring it in another way to see if it gave me audio. First I imported the QT movie that resulted from my iMovie project. I found it in my external drive where I had it stored, and I imported it.
When I detected a problem, I undid that and opened Finder, selected the external drive, found my movie and dragged the icon into my bin.
In either case, when I opened it in the canvas, it played -- video only. When I dragged it into the timeline, it separated the media into one channel of video and two channels of audio. It would play -- video only. There was a red render bar that I eliminated by rendering all, to no effect for recovering audio, and then by rendering 'audio only,' which also didn't work.
I then tried dragging in a second iMovie QT project to see if the same problem existed. It did. With that project, however, responding to the red render bar by hitting 'render all' gave me a window saying it would take two hours. Why that wasn't the case for the other movie, I don't know. Perhaps it's the only one that might have worked, should I have had two hours to wait. It freaked me out a little 'cuz it didn't even appear to start working on the render after several moments of watching my cursor turn into a rainbow on and off. So I just closed it out and posted my question.

  • Changing music played within a QuickTime movie created form iPhoto

    I am trying to create a QuickTime movie from iPhoto which I have figured out, but I can not figure out how to change the default music. iPhoto indicates that it will use the default music from slideshow, but I can not see where to change that in slideshow preferences? I am able to change the music successfully in a slideshow played within iPhoto, but it does not ripple acorss to the newly created QuickTime movie.

    when you're creating your slideshow, you just click the music button (in iPhoto '09 in the older versions it might be in the settings, I don't remember) and choose your song and hit apply. Make sure the "Play music during slideshow" box is checked. Play your slide show (not preview) because this is just what it will look like as a quicktime. Go to export, choose quicktime and check the box that says "Add currently selected slideshow music to movie"
    I can assure this works because I was following these steps as I was writing them and I just successfully played a QT with my own music

  • Is there any reason photos in an album page display small on the iPad, but normally on an iMac? And videos on a movies page don't play on the iPad, but are OK on the iMac?

    Is there any reason photos in an album page created in iweb display small on the iPad, but normally on an iMac? And videos on a movies page don't play on the iPad, but are OK on the iMac?

    there are three displays in photos page:
    1) thumbnails grid - smallest
    2) deatial view and detail view slideshow - large
    3a) pop-up slideshow - vary - this is slideshow.html
    3b) or iphone/ipad slideshow phoneshow.html - iphone/ipad can't do pop-up
    it's difficult to know which you refer to.
    if you refer to pop-up slideshow then you should not look into iwebmediagrid.js as wyodor suggested.
    instead look in phoneshow.html and change width and heigth of element id slideshow:
    #slideshow {
    position: relative;
    width: 320px; /* this is default width */
    height: 360px; /* this is default height */
    margin-left: auto;
    margin-right: auto;
    overflow: hidden;

  • HT1390 I rented the movie Chronicle and it show it playing on my comp, but no audio or video, just the timer counting down, what should I do?

    I rented the movie Chronicle and it show it playing on my comp, but no audio or video, just the timer counting down, what should I do?

    I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
    Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
    Find the item that is not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the entry, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" link next to the item.
    (Not entirely sure what happens after you click that link, but fingers crossed it should be relatively straightforward.)

  • Playing movie created in iMovie on PC

    Hello,
    I have a client I'm making a marketing presentation for. I wanted to do it in iMovie instead of PowerPoint so I can integrate video & sound with the still photos and text. The big question is if I make it in iMovie can my client open it on a PC? If yes, is there any special formating/save options I need to use.

    iMovie can export (aka "Share") QuickTime movie files. QT player for Windows is a free download. Download the installer and include it on the CDR or DVD with the QT movie file you are giving to the client.

  • Used Quicktime to export iMovie and play on a TV, but getting audio codec error

    I created an iMovie 11 project and exported it using Quicktime as a HD movie to play on a one year old Samsung big screen TV. The movie file ended in .mov, which the TV would not recognize, so I changed the extension to .mpg and the video plays fine.
    The problem I have is that during the first 3 or 4 seconds of the movie, I get an error pop up on the TV screen that the audio codec is not supported, obviously newer than the TV, right?
    So I updated the TV to the latest firmware via Samsung's website and that all went as expected. However, the error message is still there.
    The movie is made up completely of still images, so there is no audio to detach, and I can find no other settings to disable the audio portion of the movie.
    Anyone run into this before and be able to share some advice, please?

    I found that these audio codecs are supported:
    AC3
    LPCM
    ADMPCM (MA, MS)
    AAC
    HE-AAC
    WMA
    DD+
    MPEG (MP3)
    DTS Core
    Voris

  • Quicktime Movies made in iMovie won't go by email

    Recently the Quicktime Files I have made from iMovie will play on my computer but
    when I e-mail them to MACs and PCs and burn them to CDs they will not play
    A warning appears that files & clips can not be found. I have iMovie 4.0.1
    and Quicktime 7.3.1
    I have tried everything I can think of but can not fix the problem.
    Help,help,help....I have successfully made movies and e-mailed them
    but I have not used this software in a long time.
    Any suggestions will be most appreciated.
    You can e-mail me direct at [email protected]

    The default export dialog window in older versions of iMovie had the check box set for "reference" movie. You need to change it to "self contained".
    Reference movies merely "point" to the actual data found in your iMovie Project. Fine when working from your computer (they are very tiny in file size) but useless anywhere else.

  • HELP?!  Quicktime movie rendered  won't play?

    I made a movie in After Effects and rendered it as a quicktime movie with Soren (Soerenson?) compression type. It played on my computer and some friends' both PC and MAC computers. Now I am out of town and trying to play it on a PC that was Quicktime version 7.1.3 installed. the music plays, but the movie is all scrambled with green and blue nonsense, you can't see anything in the movie. WHy would this be? HELP PLEASE!!

    Thank you so much, that worked perfectly! Now can you explain to me what that did? Do I need to switch it back for them? So that I know in the future.

  • Does anyone know what programme i can use as iDVD is not on my mac.  I want to make a DVD from a movie created on iMovie? Is Burn any good? and if so, can I get it free?

    Hi does anyone know what programme I can use to create DVD of a movie that I have created on iMovie?  There is no iDVD on my mac.  Is Burn any good? And if so, can I get it for free?
    Thanks.

    There is no iDVD on my mac.
    There is NO alternative.   But iDVD is very easy to get.
    iDVD is on the iLife 11 DISK.  Buy here:

    Is Burn any good?
    iDVD is vastly superior, especially for movies.

  • Quicktime mov files aren't playing on Client's computer

    Hi.
    My computer opens & can read the Quicktime movie files that are created through Final Cut Pro from P2 cards. My client's computer cannot. Is that because she doesn't have Quicktime Pro?..or something else?
    TIA,
    Heather

    Drat. I was afraid of that. I have footage from 3 events that I'd like them to be able to view for future editing projects. Converting every clip isn't realistic, nor do I want to spend the time burning them DVDs..although I may have to. Is there any other way to create a readable file for them via the Log & Transfer process?

  • Streaming QT Movies Created with iMovie HD 6

    My web hosting company, dreamhost.com, offers a Darwin streaming server for to post streaming QuickTime Movies. My problem is that their documentation uses links/examples for QuickTime Pro, not iMovie which is what I have.

    Also, the markup they propose uses a "poster" movie but I can't understand what that is or how to produce it:

    Can any one tell me:
    1. How to produce the files I need for streaming using iMovie, and
    2. What markup I used in my web page to stream the movie.

  • Error -2002 when importing quicktime movie clips into iMovie Project

    When I import QuickTime movie clips into my project, the scroll bar fills about 1/3 of the way, and then I get this message:
    Can't open file "DSCN0812.MOV"; skipping it and continuing. I CLICK "OK," and then this message appears:
    Error during import
    The file could not be imported: (-2002)
    This happens to every movie clip. Anyone have any idea what's happening here?
    Thanks!

    I guess, you try to import 'moving images' from a still cam, right? these are in a codec (=mov is no format, just a container) , iM doesn't support. Use the free tool *Mpeg Streamclip* www.squared5.com to convert these files to 'dv stream' BEFORE importing to iMovie.
