Quicktime Pro Export Issue (No Audio Track)

Hello,
After I purchased and installed the MPEG-2 component into Quicktime Pro 7, all of a sudden when I export from one video file format (.MP4) into another (.MOV), there is no audio track exported into the .mov created.
I should add that I installed the MPEG-2 component to view a TIVO-to-go recording that I had been able to strip out of the .tivo shell. Once I played the .mpg file though, no audio track played either. Thoughts? Is there a way to uninstall the MPEG-2 component from Quicktime Pro?
Thanks,
Tim

No audio export.
Use MPEG Streamclip (free) to export with audio.

OMF CS4 issue - Seperate audio tracks output as identical files on Pro Tools import

OMF issue - seperate audio tracks outputs as identical files
I am having some serious trouble when trying to export an OMF from a p2 DVCPROHD 720p50 project in CS4, and importing it in Pro Tools. The project is complex with over 12 hours of HD-footage and many sequences and titles.
When exporting an OMF from a thirty minute sequence to work with the audio in Pro Tools, all four tracks turn out identically in Pro Tools on import. However, the tracks are different in the Premiere Pro CS4 timeline.
We have tried both encapsulated and separate audio, we have tried importing the timeline/sequence into a new premiere project and exporting an OMF from the new project with no success. However, when we started a new project and simply imported one of our p2-files, and exported an omf, it worked fine, with 4 different audio tracks in Pro Tools.
We also tried exporting 4 different OMF-files (one for each track), while having deleted all the other tracks. This remarkably also resulted in four identical tracks in Pro Tools!
The OMF does not exceed the 2GB limitation.
Can anyone help us? Have a project due on Monday, and need to start working on the audio ASAP.

The "Source Channel Mapping - Default Track Format:" is set to "Use File". We recorded with a Panasonic HPX301 camera, which has three XLR-inputs, and we used all of them. So two of the tracks are identical recordings (from one of the XLR-inputs), while the two remaining are different, so in total there are three different tracks of oudio, all mono.
When we put a p2-file into a sequence it has four tracks of audio linked to it, with the corresponding sound. So everything seems to be in order in Premiere, but for some reason they end up being four identical tracks in Pro Tools. As mentioned we tried making a new project with the same settings as in the project we are currently working, and we imported a single p2 clip. We exported a sequence with this clip as an omf with all the same settings, and this time it worked. The four tracks were different in Pro Tools when the OMF was imported. So it seems that the complexity of our project, or some setting that we are not aware of but have been altered by a mistake has made this project impossible to export correctly as an omf.
But if there are any solutions to this we would be deeply grateful!
thnx

Quicktime Pro doesn't hold audio levels when exporting (or "sharing").

I just upgraded to Quicktime Pro for one reason only: to add my music to an exsisiting video (that has it's own embedded dialog track) and posting to a webpage for review. Adding my music is easy. Setting the level of my music is easy. Saving and reopening with everything intact is easy. The problem is when exporting to another format. I've been choosing the preset called "Braodband Medium". It's the h.264 codec and AAC audio etc...
After the export, my music level has been "bumped up" to 100% - drowning out the dialog track. I've tried it on 3 different Macs with the same result. Does anyone else have this problem? It seems like a glaring problem that needs fixing.

Confirmed.
Export your original two track file to your required settings (Broadband Medium), add (scaled to selection) your second audio track, make the volume setting adjustments (Movie Properties window) and Save As.
QuickTime files can have up to 99 tracks.

Background audio too loud in QuickTime Pro export

I created a movie in QT Pro 7.6.6 with a background audio track and voiceover for each photo. It sounds great in QT Pro, but when I export it (mov and wmv), the background music drowns out the voiceover. I am desperate to finish this for my niece for her dad for Fathers Day. Need to get in the mail today! Any help would be greatly apprciated. Thanks.

Not sure what work flow you were using to change relative volume of individual tracks but suspect any export action would automatically force a "reset" of the audio levels/settings before flattening during export. A better approach would likely be to create the file using GarageBand which allows you to set relative audio levels for each audio track independently and then set the final level of the "master" audio track separately. You can also split and duck individual audio tracks and/or "rubberband" the master track if desired before the final export.

Flash Pro Exporting Issues

Hello everyone. I recently have been working on a Flash animation. Throughout the making of this animation Flash has been failing, getting "unknown errors," and just plain corrupting some of my files. Now I understand that a 200MB is a rather large animation. But anyway's I have been constantly duplicating my .fla's because of just how unreliable Flash seems to be acting when it comes to this. Finally I decided enough is enough and tried to export it. Heck, I was just going to split the animation into 2 parts if it makes Flash happy and saves my hard work from corruption. I finally found one of the backup files that is moderately new. However upon attempting to export as a QuickTime it reads
"The export failed because the operation ran out of memory."
I have tried everything to get this to work. It should work! And it shouldn't be this difficult. I'm hearing stuff about how Flash apparently fails when it comes to exporting 1920 x 1080. Is this true? In that forum I read somebody said Adobe was working on fixing it. That forum has been up since around last summer. Has anybody found a solution to this issue? I just want what I've worked very hard on to work. Please help.
(P.S. I'm on a Mac, and this is Flash Pro CS6)

My recommendation is to bypass the QT movie export completely and use one of these effective workarounds. If you were to get an export to succeed, you'd find that the framerate is completely whacked and you can't use it effectively in any non-linear editing environment. QuickTime is not a stable export movie format ever since Adobe bought Flash. I'm an animation filmmaker, and this is a workaround that I and my professional friends use:
OPTION 1:
1) export an image sequence using the PNG format, no compression, best quality. Give yourself a short frame name with an underscore after it, like "myfile_.png"
2) take the sequence of PNGs and do either one of these options:
a - use QuickTime Pro to import image sequence. Open your audio file with QT, it createsit's own file, then copy it, and then use QT manager to add it in to your video file. EXPORT a new QT using PNG compression (or other). Close/do not save this initial compiled edit. Your exported fil is the final and useable one, and is frame stable. Done.
b - import your PNG sequence into any non-linear editor, having set it's internal preferences to import stills so they last only 1 frame each. Most, like FCP or Premiere, you can also import as a media sequence or "footage" but that pre-applies a supposed FPS rate when imported. Again, you can now compile a video/audio edit and then export.
OPTION 2:
1) use SWIVEL, a free app that converts SWF files into movies, including QuickTime.
2) publish an SWF without any compression/jpg high quality /audio included
3) import into Swivel.
4) set video qualities. Codec should be QuickTime ANIMATION
5) set audio qualities
6) Export, done.
Hope this helps!

H.264 export, randomly missing audio tracks

Came across a strange issue when exporting a 1080p timeline using the H.264 export option. The first export had some strange video flickering issue, but the audio was fine. So I re-exported and switched to CBR instead of 2 pass VBR. On the 2nd export, the footage looked fine but for some reason tracks 3 and 4 which contained background audio, were not in the exported file, just silence. The thing that concerns me is the only encoding option I changed was the bitrate, and going from VBR to CBR, everything else stayed the same in the 2 exports. I have no idea why Premiere would mysteriously drop 2 of my audio tracks. Has this happened to anyone else? This problem has happened to me before, both with the flickering and missing audio. I've tried the usual updating to current version of Premiere, clearing preferences, etc. and still running into this.

I work in Broadcasting and we use Quicktime HD 1080i h264 with no problems. Plus the file sizes are just amazing (Less than 100mg for a 30 seconds)

Premiere Pro CC and missing audio tracks for .mts files

Hello guys,
I used to edit my .mts files with Premiere Pro CC without any issues until yesterday.
Now I import my .mts file (made with a Sony VG900) but Premiere doesn't recognize the audio tracks (that I can hear just fine with VLC).
I tried changing the extension in .m2ts but it didn't work, I also tried reinstalling Premiere but, again, it didn't work and I tried (I was desperate) to install Premiere CS6 just to check if maybe the problem was just about the CC version. Guess what? It didn't work...
I tried also converting the file with Encoder in .mp4 but after the conversion I can't hear the audio with VLC and, of course, it doesn't work on Premiere.
Do you think it's a Premiere issue or a file problem?
I used those same files for other videos (like this one http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H1X5vsZ-5yI) and I had no problems. Then I updated Premiere, I moved the files in other folder and the problem came to life.
Any idea?
(I'm waiting for my colleague to send me a new mts file just to check if I accidentally damanged the old ones).

A similar problem here..... although......
Take a look at this screenshot
As you will see, the blue marked audio is repeated audio of less than on sec. Certainly not the way it has been recorded.
I think I've got the answer........ (working with Premiere Pro CC, always up to date, Mac OX 10.9.2; Camera: Sony HXR NX3)
1. Don't copy but clone your flash card to the location where to edit on your hard drive. At the same time: alt+click on external flash card, draw it onto your hard drive location.
(or use carbon copy cloner, which I use for backup and transferring avchd files).
2. Don't import regularly via the import dialogue box (cmd-i). Instead: use the mediabrowser browser, locate the map "private" (as often standard named),
3. Via cmd-a (select all): select all videofiles.
4. click right mouse button and select import.
This way, all the video and audio files will be imported.
If however you have alreade re-used your camera flash card for recordings and don't have access to the 'corrupted' files to be imported into your project, you won't be able to solve the problem. You just lost some of the essential data which were not copied onto your Mac.
This solution I found for my problem may well be the one you are looking for........
Another solution might be to convert the compressed avchd - before importing into your project - into uncompressed .mov filed. However...... you will lose data so this is not exactly what I would prefer if the former described workflow does fix the problem for you.
Please let me know if this works for you or not.
Good luck!
Regards,
Peter

Quicktime Pro export trouble

i recently bought quicktime pro (or so i thought) and i cant seem to get any of the special features to work properly.
1) i cannot seem to download quicktime videos from the internet via the small "down arrow" in the bottom corner of the player. i dont have a down arrow to click on. my friend (who has QTpro) went to the same video, and was able to download it. how can i take QT videos off of the internet/ how do i get a "down arrow"?
2) when exporting to ipod or MPEG-4, the movie loses its sound. When setting up to export as an MPEG-4 i go into the settings menu, where i can mess with teh video options, but when i go to the audio options, everything is gray and cannot be accessed. i just want to get a small home movie onto my ipod. (the movie is in MPEG format)
iBook G4 Mac OS X (10.4)

I'm assuming that you have gone to the QuickTime registration and entered you name and serial numbers, so I really am not sure why you can't save from the internet, unless saving has been disabled. As for the export settings, I believe QuickTime is nable to demux the audio from and mpg and then compress it for your iPod- you really should try to get the original file and compress from there, rather than recompressing the mpg.

Quicktime Pro export does not work

I am trying to export a streaming movie to a MP4 or other to play it on my Ipod touch. The particular movie is located on http://multimedia.slowfood.it/index.php?method=multimedia&action=zoom&id=37
I have experienced this with other movies too:
When saving it from my browser it saves 1 1KB link, which I can play in Quicktime pro.
However exporting it to MP4 results in a 4 MB file, which when played only shows the quicktime logo. Exporting it to one of the other formats does the same. I am new to this. Any ideas?

It's a streaming video. You can't save a streaming video. Streaming videos stay on the sever and aren't cached on your computer. Most videos that you see on the internet are progressive video's. A progressive video can be save to your computer.

Why is my QuickTime Pro exporting image sequences in the wrong order?

I am making timelapse films and using QuickTime Pro to export the images as a movie file. I have all the images in a folder named numericaly. I go file>import image sequence click on the first image and import. The images are in the correct order in the source folder I have also checked the resource files under show movie properties and they are in the correct order there. I then export as a QuickTime movie file at 1080p H.264 the film is stepping and the frames are out of sequence in the eported movie file. Why is this? Has anyone come across this before?

Is there anything else I could try.
Not sure. I would likely test an x264 export of the image sequence from QT 7 Pro or MPEG Streamclip (or from HandBrake if your system is not configured with the x264 codec) and see if the result was any better. This is not a problem I run into very often and, even then, the files were sent to me with no real indication of how they were originally encoded.
Or do you know how I can analise the exported file?
Not really... but it would be nice to have a tool which indicated the current frame type and listed pointers to frames/stacks of frames used for rendering reference.

Custom Quicktime pro export settings for iPhone

I want to custom export from Quicktime Pro, using h.264 in an mpeg4 container with a low data rate (about 400kb) and smaller size (400x220)
It imports into iTunes fine, but won't sync to my iPhone (error message: 'xxx' was not copied to the iPhone 'xxx' because it cannot be played on this iPhone.)
I've tried the Quicktime Pro preset called 'movie to iPhone', and it works fine: the movie copies to my iPhone. The filesize though, is far bigger than I know I can get it down to with custom settings.
I just can't get it to load onto my iPhone.
What am I missing?

You've got Tiger and Automator! Learn how to use them help you make some "presets".
http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/automator/
You could also "hack" the .plist files found in the QuickTime Player.app and edit away.
Control-click on the QuickTime Player and choose "Show Package Contents". Inside the resources folder are a number of .plist files for presets. If you have the Developer Tools installed a double click on a .plist should open the Property List Editor. Change the settings to your liking, but beware.
I use Automator as either a "workflow" on a stand alone "application". Workflows can be triggered by a control click on a file where the "apps" act like AppleScript "Droplets". Drag a file to the droplet and let the application do its thing.
QuickTime Pro stores the "Most Recently Used" settings for many exports. These would be easy to re-construct or edit to allow you to create dozens of different "presets". Save each as an application (naming them may be troublesome) using Automator.

Quicktime Pro Export as a Flash File

I have Quicktime Pro, I need to export video as a flash file. Is that possible?
The video was created with my iPhone 4S.
Thanks,

You can use FFmpeg to do this.

Quicktime Pro exporting to WMV -- only exports 30 seconds?

Have 7.6.6 PRO and am exporting to WMV. But I only get 30 seconds of video? Any ideas?

I am having a problem with this as well. In Quicktime Pro, when I try and export a 4:49 length .mov into a .wmv, it will only give me 4.30. Why would it cut me off? At first I thought maybe the machine hic-upped or something during the conversion but I have attempted it several times and no matter what I do, I can only get 4:30 in length.
I have Quick Time Pro and Flip4Mac WMV Studio Pro HD and have spent hours going through the FAQ’s and discussion forums on both sites and can’t find anything about a time constraint once you have purchased the “paid” versions......HELP

Saving Quicktime Pro Export Settings

I regularly convert video from one size/bitrate to another using the export function of QTpro.
Is there any way I can save this setting permanently in the export settings menu and call the setting something?
Does this need apple scripting?
Has anyone done it? I'm sure they must have.
Paul

***** that this feature has been removed since it's perfectly obvious and useful to have. As a workaround, if you are a Final Cut Pro user and have Compressor installed, you could set up a preset with custom settings and batch process to a folder of your choice from there.
Also, I'd stumbled on a action script someone had put together for saving most recent settings presets in quicktime pro but don't have a link to provide you. It's definitely out there but might be more complicated to throw together if you don't know or have the time to learn scripting.

QuickTime Pro Registration Issues

i have a new iMac and just bought quicktime pro. I'm trying to put in the registration data but it sits and does nothing. The online support says go to system preferences but quicktime 7 is not visablee - why should i do?

Hi Brian - hope I can help - I wasted 2 hours with Applecare on this last week. After 4 gurus they agreed its not Apple's finest. First when you buy QT Pro online (£20) it does not tell you what to do with the registration - poor instructions. Then you need to have downloaded Quicktime Player 7. To make this more interesting you will not find this in Applications. It will be in Utilities (a Lion quirk). I also had QT Player 10.1 which could not be deleted except by Apple Guru 2 helping me build another identity that allowed me to do so. So eventually you have one Quicktime Player app - version 7.
Open it and then registration in the drop down menu - it should let you enter the registeration key. When it has registered it does not tell you so and to make it even more frustrating the app does not rename - it stays as Quicktime Player 7. More confusing still - none of the greyed out features that belong to Pro are shown in black until you open a file first. Brian it should work if you get past these issues - otherwise complain to Applecare. Good luck!
