Quicktime movie has active x logo

After converting my site from Go Live my Quicktime movie in
DW has an Active X logo in design mode but still plays fine why
does it do that?

Hi Colin.
Thank for your help. I tried that. The problem Being that FCP sees the file as 1024 and but instead of what it does with still files ie. fit the image to the Canvas. it crops the image.
In the end i managed to solve the problem by batching the lot thru Mpeg Streamclip and got the correct proportions and aspect ratio that way.
I feel that it's unacceptable for any package with the tag PRO to be that badly flawed.
In previous versions of Quicktime this has never been an issue. Sadly, this is another "We know what's best for you" situations. I know HD is the future Apple but i'm still shooting in DV.

My Quicktime movie has a pink, green

My Quicktime movie has a pink, green and grey looking wire mesh over the image when previewed in iDVD but the movie looks good in Quicktime Player so the problem is just reviewing in iDVD.

Hi
If You "Save as a DiskImage" and play this with Your Mac DVD-player tool.
• How will this look ?
• If You put in a commercial DVD (movie) - How does this play ? OK ?

Keynote to quicktime movie has wrong aspect ratio

I have created some Keynote Quicktime movies. When I import them into iMovie, they become too tall and wide to see the pictures. How can I change the aspect ratio (I want to use 16:9) and/or the height and width of the slides to be seen properly?

Hi David, I know this was discussed in you posting already but I just wanted to make sure I had it clear. I have a 4:3 film and I've exported as a quicktime movie with current settings, which should be 4:3 and found that the image when played back in quicktime, looks horizontally stretched. Almost as if quicktime is trying to play it back as a 16:9 image. I think this is the same issue the other fellow was having but I just wanted to be clear. You're saying that the 4:3 image distortion is perfectly normal when played back in quicktime on a computer screen and that the export will look fine when put to DVD or sent to a monitor? I just wanted to make sure because this problem is freaking me out and I don't want to deliver a distorted image to my client. Could you also explain briefly why this happens with quicktime export and not quicktime conversion and what causes quicktime to distort the 4:3 image? Any advice or help would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
james.

Export to Quicktime Movie and end up with Final Cut document

Exactly this is happening. Yesterday no problem, today I can not export. Using Quicktime Conversion is also hopeless. How do I remedy this? Thanks, and please be simple--I am the Idiot for which the Idiot Books were written...

"today I can not export"
What happens when you export?
"Using Quicktime Conversion is also hopeless."
What happens?
Exporting to either Movie or Conversion produces a QuickTime file. The only difference is that a QuickTime Movie has Final Cut as the creator type. Both can be used in any QuickTime application on any Mac that has the appropriate codec.

Issue with playing quicktime movie on win pc

I've run into an issue with dvds a friend burned on a mac. The quicktime
movie files on the discs play fine on macs, but will begin to stutter
and freeze 35 minutes in on win xp. i've tried multiple pcs with no
luck.
The same thing happens when I copy the files to the hard drive. I tried the VLC
player instead of quicktime, but that closes altogether after 35 minutes. I
also tried copying the files to an external hard drive with the same results.
Quicktime is at latest version.
I saw a post here about files over 1GB being problematic in windows with the FAT file system. The PCs I'm using are using the NTFS file system. The files are over 2GB, and they spaz out at the halfway mark, so perhaps that is part of the problem. But I'm stunned that there aren't more posts on this topic if that's the case.
Any help would be much appreciated!

I have had similar problems. I have not experienced the
looping problem but I very often experience the problem of
Quicktime not playing in Shockwave.I think that I can solve the
second part of your problem ( if I understand it correctly).
You can make a streaming progress sprite for quicktime that
indicates to the end user what percentage of the Quicktime movie
has streamed. The sprite appears as a small box that shows a 1 then
a 2 then a 3 etc up to 100. You can of course make another text
sprite that tells the user what the numbers mean e.g. % streamed.
Method
Make a text sprite and leave it blank (this text sprite will
show the appropriate number during enduser viewing) name the member
stream display. Name the Quicktime member swing 1a and put it in
the timeline. Right click on the quicktime sprite in the stage
window and in the resulting pop up menu select Script . In the
Script window write the following script
on exitFrame me
member("stream display").text=\
string(member("swing1a").percentStreamed)
end

ITunes 11 has converted some songs to Quicktime movie format. How can I convert them back to MPEGs? format

iTunes 11 has converted some songs to Quicktime movie format. How can I convert them back to MPEGs?

I didn't mess with the iTunes Media folder previously, so I don't think that was the cause. Anyway, I manually fixed most of the songs, but I still can't figure out how to fix the movies that became listed as songs.
Here is a screenshot of what it looks like when I click on "Get Info" for one of the movies (which has ended up in the music section on iTunes):
There is no option to change the media kind to "movie" or "video" even though it is a movie and it still plays as a movie if I press play.

Quicktime movie only has the first song in the play list. after export

when I export an album to quicktime the quicktime movie only has the first song in the play list. The slide show works in i photo with all songs in the playlist but the quicktime only takes the first song and repeats it over and over

I used the garage band method to string the songs together. Then used the mega song to play with my album. and it even exported to the quicktime movie. Thanks for the post.

HT3775 For some reason my QuickTime player has stopped playing all my .avi movies, I can't seem to upgrade and it doesn't offer any solutions except that it may need additional software but not what or where to obtain it from? Help most of my movie are in

For some reason my QuickTime player has stopped playing all my .avi movies, I can't seem to upgrade and it doesn't offer any solutions except that it may need additional software but not what or where to obtain it from? Help most of my movie are in .avi!!

Google 'Perian' and 'Flip4Mac' — these are the extensions that will make QT play other file formats.
However, a simpler solution is just to abandon QT in favour of the free, open-source player VLC, which plays just about everything natively without further downloads.
Download the free VLC Player from here:
http://www.videolan.org
Plays just about everything, including avi & mpg, without add ons.

Compressing "masked' quicktime movie-mask has ragged edges and white areas

I have been masking quicktime movies with quicktime pro. I get a good-looking masked quicktime movie. But when I try to export to mp4 or other file types, the mask looks terrbile, the edges are ragged and some previously masked areas are now white. HELP!

i tried apple 1, 2, and 3 for actual, double, and full size, always a white border in full screen. at actual size the side borders are bigger than the top and bottom, double and full it's a crisp 1 pixel grey line all the way around. i made the mask file 481x641 and 482x642 with no changes at all, all of them cut way inside the edges of the picture to avoid that border.
strange part is at full size (more than double size for sure with these files) the border is exactly 1 pixel, not scaled up to 2.x pixels like you would expect if it was in the movie, not just the player sucking with masks. guess i'll hope someone notices and fixes in a future release. just like with the h.264 encoding border with masks. i guess the white border all the way around is better than a neon green one on the right side which i get with h.264
/someone not testing QT with simple rectangular masks it seems
here's a screenshot of my movie in fullscreen at double size so you can see the whole border:

Has anyone ever tried diplaying a quicktime movie iniweb?

• Movies: Copy QuickTime movies into this folder and you can use HomePage to display them on your Web pages.
this is what the idisk says. u can put quicktime movies in your iweb site. anybody tried this? if so did it work?

This applies to the older Homepages system. If you put QT movie files into this folder, then log into your .Mac Homepages account and start a movie page, you will be prompted to select a movie from this Movies folder. This is unrelated to iWeb, but it could certainly be used in concert with an iWeb site.

Saving Quicktime Movies

Still ,as was in safari 4 beta, no option to save quicktime movies you must do so by opening up activity window.

http://progressive.stream.aol.com/aol/us/highspeed/extratv/ellen/mono/daily_dl.m ov
The URL is in the source of the frame in which the movie is playing.
If you are in Safari then View menu > View Source and search for "frame" until you find one that seems reasonable (it was the second one on this page.) The frame source shows as <iframe src="video/videoload.html?=mono/daily"
So I changed the current URL in the browser window from:
<a class="jive-link-external-small" href="http://">http://ellen.warnerbros.com/galleries/video.html
To:
http://ellen.warnerbros.com/galleries/video/videoload.html
And loaded that page... the movie appeared. I then viewed the source of the current page (could have control-clicked in the frame to View Frame Source) and saw the URL for the movie which was...
<EMBED SRC="http://progressive.stream.aol.com/aol/us/highspeed/extratv/ellen/'delineate2(text)'_dl.mov" Then you only have to figure out what delineate2(text) is.
Paste the final movie URL into Safari's download window and the video will be downloaded.
Firefox has a Page Info feature that shows the url of the embedded media.

Quicktime Movies Causes UI To Lock Up (Safari & Quicktime Player)

When a page in Safari has an embedded Quicktime Movie, it causes my computer to lockup. It will not respond to mouse clicks or keyboard input. The whole UI just locks up. Same with opening movies in Quicktime Player. I can SSH into the box, and when I run "top", I don't see anything pegging the CPU. The biggest problem is, Safari and Quicktime Player don't "crash", so no crash report is generated, and I have nothing to reference. I can issue a "sudo reboot" and the machine will restart.
If I set Safari to run in Rosetta, I experience no problems. Same with the Quicktime Player. However, Firefox work perfectly displaying Quicktime Movies.
I have the most current firmware and system updates. The problem is reproducible with a fresh user account, as well as with a clean system install. I even went to the trouble of zeroing the drive, and reinstalling a fresh copy of the OS. I tested pre updates, and post updates, and it is reproducable across all instances. This was all done in front of a Genius at the Apple Store.
He was stumped...

I'm not a QuickTime engineer but I noticed that the QuickTime Plugin.webplugin first appeared in Tiger and version 7. It caused me some grief when using the Safari Activity window to find source URL's for QuickTime files in pages. Removing it allowed the URL to appear in the Activity window.
Now most pages use javascript (.js) files to display QuickTimme files so they don't appear in the Activity window.
I beleive that the plug-in is used by Dashboard Widgets (also html files) to do some kind of "voodoo" similar to the plug-in architecture of Web browsers.
I've just applied at the La Cantera Apple Store for a job. Is that where you "stumped the genius"?

Safari 6.1 on MacOS 10.8.5 not play quicktime movies

Trying to view quicktime movies in Safari brings up the Quicktime Q graphic with a big question mark. Safari->Help-> Installed Plug-Ins includes:
QuickTime Plug-in 7.7.1
The QuickTime Plugin allows you to view a wide variety of multimedia content in web pages. For more information, visit the QuickTime Web site. — from file “QuickTime Plugin.plugin”.
in the list of plug ins and the /Library/Internet Plug-Ins folder does have the file "QuickTime Plugin.plugin".
I have tried downloading the older Quicktime Player 7.app and then rebooting the computer and I still cannot view the Quicktime movies in Safari. I can view the quicktime movies in Firefox (version 24.0).
I have also deleted the items in the Library folder:
Caches/com.apple.Safari/Cache.db
Preferences/com.apple.quicktime.plugin.preferences.plist
Preferences/QuickTime Preferences
rebooting and relaunching Safari all with negative results.
All of these have been suggested by people in previous postings dating back to Fall 2012 or earlier, so I'm out of ideas.
Is there anything else I should try?
Running Safari 6.1 on Mac OS 10.8.5 on a MacBook Pro with Retina display.

Well, this was on webpages I had created as lecture slides for my classes. I've just discovered that Safari acts differently if I view other websites than if I view webpages on my own computer's harddrive. If I put an example page on the webserver
http://www2.bakersfieldcollege.edu/nstrobel/astronomy/s3test.htm
and bring it up in Safari, I can see the quicktime movie in Safari.
When I view the same webpage (s3test.htm) that has the quicktime movie embedded in it on my local harddrive, Safari displays the shaded Quicktime logo with the big question mark.
Why Safari should care whether the webpage is on some webserver vs. having the same file and graphics on the local computer harddrive is beyond me.
Since all of my lecture slides are webpages I have created, I'd like to know what hooks or coding I now need to put in the html to get Safari to display the movies in my lecture slide webpages on my local computer's harddrive.
Here's the very simple html code for the s3test.htm file:
============
<html>
<head>
<title>Sun's Interior</title>
</head>
<body>
<h2>The Sun is entirely hot gas all the way to the center.</h2>
<center>
<embed src="circS10.mov" width="640" height="500" loop="true"></embed>
</center>
<H2>Interior</H2>
<UL>
          <LI>
            <h3>Core: 16 million K and density 20 times greater than iron but still gaseous!
              Energy generated here in the innermost 10% of the Sun's mass.
      </h3>
          <LI>
            <h3>Radiative Zone:
      Photons carry energy outward. About 85% of the Sun's radius.</h3>
          <LI>
            <h3>Convection Zone: Photons blocked, so huge chunks of gas carry energy outward to surface. Outer 15% of
the Sun's radius.</h3>
          <LI>
            <h3><em>Photosphere: </em>here the photons finally escape to space. The part we see. Only 500 kilometers thick.
About 5840 K.</h3>
</UL>
</body>
</html>
===========
That code works just fine if I put the s3test.htm + circS10.mov quicktime movie files on the www2.bakersfieldcollege.edu webserver (or any other webserver), but it does not work if the files are on my local harddrive. Firefox works fine either way.

Quicktime Movie HELP!!

I am running Final Pro 6 and have a DVCPRO HD 1080/60 timeline. When I export to quicktime movie, it plays fine in the quicktime player on the Mac. However, when I transfer the file over to my PC, where I am running After Effects, it does not play in quicktime, nor does it display anything when I import the file into After Effects. I have all the latest updates for the player and the software. Do I need to export in another format out of FCP6 to import it into After Effects running on a PC? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Two ways to do this:
Trash your render files for the sequence in question - I'd suggest selecting all clips, Command-A then pressing Control-B twice to disable, then renable your clips.
Then File > Export > QT Conversion.
The QT dialog, once you've selecting the File to QuickTime Movie setting, hit the Options button.
In the Movie Settings dialog, hit the Settings button, then select Animation as your Compression Type. In case it doesn't do this automatically, set Depth to Millions of Colors+ and exit the Compression Settings dialog
Now, back in the Movie Settings dialog, hit the Size button and select the HD 1920x1080 setting. No other options in the Size dialog should be active.
Get back to the Save dialog in QT Conversion and save your movie. Since it has to render out your timeline in Animation while it saves, this might take a while.
Or, alter your Sequence Settings so that your Compressor is set to Animation (be sure to click on the Advanced Options and set Color Depth to Millions of Colors+) and then render.
You can then do a File > Export > QuickTime Movie at Current Settings.
Once your movie is rendered and exported, since you're working with DVCProHD, you'll need to open your movie in QT Pro, press Command-J, then alter Visual Settings to 1920x1080 to correct the frame size.
One thing to be aware of: depending on the file system your PC is using, you might be limited to a file size of 2GB (if it's NTFS, I believe) or 4GB (if it's FAT32) and that's real issue because Animation codec files are not lean.
