Quicktime Pro Max/Min Frame for slideshow

Haven't bought QTpro yet, need to know if I can load 100's of JPG and play back and save as movie.
Thinking of using application for playback of time lapse images
What frame rate adjustments are possible and what are the max/min settings in the 'Image Sequence Settings'
Thanks,

Frame rate at import goes from 10 seconds per frame up to 60 frames per second. You can always adjust them again after import by adding scaled to a "dummy" audio file to get any frame rate you could possibly need.
I think someone found the image sequence file import maximum to be somewhere around 65,000 images. I've successfully made movies from a folder of over 5,000.

    If QuickTime Player 7 isn't in the Utilities folder automatically, you can install it separately. See:

  • Audio upsampling in Quicktime Pro: Best export settings for Final Cut?

    I'm using Quicktime Pro to convert audio from 32 kHz to 48 kHz, for use in FCE/FCP. Quicktime gives me several options for export settings. I want to make the conversion lossless, without increasing the size of the audio file too much.
    These are the settings I'm using so far:
    Format: Linear PCM
    Channels: Stereo (L R)
    Rate: 48 kHz
    Sample Rate Converter Settings: Quality: Best
    Linear PCM Settings: Sample size: 16 bits
    Are these settings the best choices? Does anyone have experience doing this kind of upsampling?
    Here are the other options in Quicktime:
    Format: Linear PCM, A-Law 2:1, IMA 4:1, MACE 3:1, MACE 6:1, QDesign Music 2, Qualcomm PureVoice, and mu-Law 2:1
    Channels: 2 Discrete Channels, Mono, Stereo (L R)
    Rate: there are other choices, but I know 48 kHz is what I want
    Advanced Settings:
    Sample Rate Converter Settings: Faster, Fast, Normal, Better, Best
    Linear PCM Settings (when Linear PCM is the format): 8 bit, 16 bit, 24 bit, 32 bit (floating point checked), 32 bit (floating point unchecked).
    The file size grows quickly as you increase the Linear PCM bit settings.

    You can't create something that is not in the file.
    Moving from 32kHz to 48 will only make the file size
    larger and can't improve the audio.
    Doesn't FCP or FCE import your file at 32. Or does it
    change it to 48 after import?
    I am aware that increasing the audio from 32 kHz to 48 kHz will not improve the quality of the audio. And yes, Final Cut Pro and Express will both capture and allow you to work witih 32 kHz audio.
    I have several hours of video shot with 32 kHz audio settings that I'd prefer to have stored on disk with 48 kHz audio, because (a) some applications like iMovie have demonstrated problems with 32 kHz audio in the past, and (b) the majority of my video is shot with 48 kHz audio, so my 32 kHz video will eventually end up in a 48 kHz project, leaving the upsampling to Final Cut. Yes, I do eventually plan to burn my projects to DVD as well, but this isn't an immediate concern.
    The problem with doing the conversion in Final Cut is this: Some of the people knowledgeable about Final Cut Pro and Express recommend doing the upsampling using Quicktime or another application, instead of using Final Cut, because Final Cut may not do as good a job as Quicktime. So my intention is to upsample the audio now in preparation for later projects. I don't completely understand why Final Cut wouldn't do as good of a job at upsampling, but a couple of experienced users in the FCP and FCE forums have independently corroborrated this.
    Thanks to everyone for their helpful posts and responsiveness.

  • Quicktime Pro 7.6.5 for Windows - Chapter Tracks problem - Preloading?

    Hi there,
    I have Quicktime Pro 7.6.5 (which is the latest I believe) for Windows and I'm trying to add a chapter track. I'm using Apples tutorial at http://www.apple.com/quicktime/tutorials… and I'm up to step 10. In my Other Settings tab under chapters all I have for options is "none" (see? http://i50.tinypic.com/30958wk.jpg) which means there is no properties popup and I can't make it preload.
    Please help? As I'm on Windows I can't use Garageband or whatever, the only programs I have is the CyberLink DVD suite, Windows Movie Maker (for Vista if that matters) and some form of muvee, though I dunno which one.. I also have Showbiz 2 on a disc somewhere.
    Thanks
    (PS: to get this straight, it will work on a DVD right? If I put a chapter track on then burn to DVD when I put the DVD in my player the chapter track will come up?)

    QuickTime Pro does not play .wmv files. It doesn't export them without some other third party software.
    Try reading the steps and supported file formats before your complain about what it does, or doesn't, do.

  • How do I use Quicktime Pro to watermark videos for YouTube?

    I'm interested in uploading videos to YouTube. I got Quicktime Pro so that I could watermark my videos so people could know who made them. My movies are in mov. format. I learned how to attach text to the video, but it just shows below the box where the video plays. When I upload the video to YouTube, it doesn't show the text/watermark that I wrote. i'm just trying to make a simple statement, nothing fancy. What am I doing wrong? Thanks.

    The trouble is caused by YouTube and their conversion process. They do not allow multiple video tracks (or text tracks) and only one video track is converted.
    You'll have to add your watermark or text track and export it again (rather than Save As) to make it one track. Your text track and video track will be merged into one track.

  • QuickTime Pro 7.6.9 for Windows - Cannot Edit, Cut, Copy, Trim, etc

    Please can someone help?
    I am trying to Trim and Edit a video clip.
    The functions within "Edit" will not allow me to select them (Undo, Redo, Cut, Copy, Paste, Select, Trim to Seclection).
    Does anyone know why this may be?
    Howeverm when I initially open up QuickTime, the Apple QuickTime Homepage has all these functions visible for me to use.
    Any assistance much appreciated.

    Are you trying to edit MPEG-1 format? Use the Movie Inspector window to find out the format.

  • Are there max # of frames for a movieclip

    OMG! I hope this isn't true. I have a movie clip in my
    library with 170 frames. When I put it on my stage, it plays to
    frame 150 and then loops. When I use actionscript to gotoAndStop at
    a frame beyond 150, all it plays is 150. Is there a limit to how
    many frames I can have in a movie clip? This movie clip is also
    being loaded dynamically at run time from the library. Are there
    any further limitations with that? I sure hope not or I have to
    come up with a major plan B for what I'm trying to do.
    Ouch!!

  • Please explain the two QuickTime Pro "Save As" options for image sequences.

    I am attempting to send a qt file to a windows user and they had no issues with the first file I sent, 15,762 Kb except it's size.
    Noticing the two save options: 1)self contained movie any external media will be included with this movie or 2) any external movies will be required to play this movie).
    This message, second option particularly I find confusing, Is this supposed to read "Any external media will be required to play this movie"? Could someone explain this message please?
    Thanks

    The two options are "Self Contained" and "Reference".
    A self contained file gathers up all of the "parts" and places them in a single file.
    A reference movie merely notes the "location" of the parts (music in your iTunes Library, photos, transitions or effects and video) wherever they are stored on your machine or network. As playback occurs all of the parts are pulled back as needed.
    Self contained is the best method of saving. Reference movies are usually only made and saved for "local" viewing.

  • Making music videos, QuickTime Pro likes to pause for a second.

    I'm making music videos, and some times at the start of the video, or where I add other video to the .mov file, the video likes to pause for 1/4th to a second, then the video like jerks forward to where it should be, while the audio is playing the way it should.
    Is there any way to keep this from occuring?
    Example (3 megs.)

    Your data rate for the video is 4.5 times of what it should be (9240 kbits/s). Try using 2000 kbits/s for the video data rate.
    Here are some other factors that can make the video sluggest along with the above:
    1) The dimensions of the video is 849x406. The height and width of the video should be divisible by, 16 for best... or 8 for better... or 4 for good. This can effect the encoding (always does) or playback of the video.
    Here read this article: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flash/apps/flvbitrate_calculator/videosizes.html
    Even tho the above article is for Flash it also applies to h.264.
    2) The audio is mp3, this isn't h.264 complient. AAC audio is... I would change the audio encoding to AAC.
    3) And lastly...what program did you use to encode this video with?
    I'm glade you supplied a short video. Most people don't. See if next time you can supply at least ten seconds. Thirty second would be the bomb!
    I took your video and copy/pasted it to lengthen it to 13 seconds. Encoded with Apple's Compressor...h.264....2000 kbits/s...audio ACC 128 kbits/s... dimensions 848x400
    http://www.setfreedenver.org/DemoA/pause_demoA.html
    There still is some jerkiness. This is inherent from the footage you supplied.

  • Quicktime Pro for Windows crashes after flattening file

    I'm running QuickTime Pro 7.7.1 for Windows.  A few weeks ago, I opened an M4V file, cut out some segments, and invoked "Save As" a quicktime .MOV file.  Given the option to save as a "reference" movie or a "self contained" movie, I chose "reference" movie.  Said "reference" movie plays exactly as I intended, as long as the original M4V file is present.  Today I wanted to eliminate that requirement, so I opened the reference movie and saved it again to a new .MOV file, this time choosing the "self contained" option.  A "flattening movie" dialog appeared, and when it got to 100%, Quicktime crashed!
    I tried the same experiment, one running Windows XP Pro and one running Windows 7 Pro, and got the same result each time.  What can I do now?

    I haven't [yet] tried it with other M4V files, but I will and get back to you.
    BTW, after it crashed, I restarted QuickTime and opened the newly-created "self contained" movie and it seemed to play OK,  So despite the inconvenience of having to restart, the crash didn't seem to affect the end product of my work.

  • Why is Quicktime Pro only for Quicktime 7??

    I just bought an upgrade to Quicktime Pro, but it is for Quicktime 7. My Mac seems to be Quicktime 10 and the instalation istructions don't work.
    Why did the Apple store sell me an upgrade that is 3 versions out of date?
    How can I get Quicktime Pro for my version of Quicktime?

    Hi there!
    I am a Mac newbie - just switched from Windows about 4 weeks ago.
    I am confused!
    My MacBook Pro came with QuickTime Player 10. I have downloade QuickTime Player 7 from the link Niel provided. I install it. But Version 10 still shows in my applications! Even after I reboot my Mac.
    I purchased the Pro upgrade and obviously cannot register it until I figure out how to get 7 to appear.
    Help! How do I get my MacBook to recognize Version 7?
    Thanks in advance for any help!

  • Just bought Quicktime Pro, can't load into V10, but won't allow me to install V7 with V10 Present.

    OK I video'd my bands latest gig on the weekends using I-Movie, but when played back on I-movie, the video / Audio are over 10 seconds out of sync.  Common Problem apparently, however on Quicktime it runs smoothly, so I was told I need to edit it in Quicktime Pro.  Easier said that done.  Quicktime Pro is only available for V7, I have V10 installed, and it will not allow me to install V7 when V10 is installed. Already paid for the rego, so not Freaking impressed with Apple having such a F..d up system in place where they do not keep the Pro version up to date with the free version.  What do I do?

    There is a version of 7 that works with 10.  Does this link help?

  • Export in QuickTime Pro

    Hi,
    I'm new to QuickTime, but I was interested because of the Export-Function of the Pro version (It says you can export in 20 different formats or so)!
    But when I use it, nothings happens. I was reading informations about it, I saved the videos (Quicktime videos) as flattened versions and tried again. But nothing happens, just nothing, no pop-up window for saving etc...
    Someone has some knowledge about this issue.
    It is strange to me.
    Thanks for any help

    Alsa, this spec sheet shows the various file formats

    Thanks for the answer. But i was aware of these instructions and tutorials.
    But what to do if it doesn't work?
    I reinstalled the player, and the key. It has been accepted and the functions are available. But clicking on Export, there is NO Pop Up window coming up. So what to do?
    Is something blocking the Pop-up? Strange.
    I wrote also to the Apple-shop who gave me the key.
    So waiting for a solution.
    And if you have more ideas, please let me know

  • Quicktime Pro quits on export

    I have used Quicktime Pro without any problems for a while now. However I recently installed Perian so that I could watch flash video within the quicktime player. Now I cannot export any movie content of any format from Quicktime. When I click on the export command I get the dreaded spinning beachball and then an error message - " Quicktime player quit. The problem may have been caused by the FLV plug-in" I have tried uninstalling Perian from its system preferences control panel but quicktime still quits on trying to export, (export for web still works ok though). Any ideas. Does anyone know where the problem plug-in files are stored so that I can delete them manually?
    thanks
    Steve B

    Further to the last posting - It doesn't seem to be Perian which is causing the problem. I found the FLV.component file which was in the Library/quicktime folder and moved it. I can now export files again however, I now don't have the option to export as flash, which is exactly what I need to do. Anybody and solutions?
    thanks

  • Quicktime Pro and WIndows Vista

    Hi.
    I just bought Quicktime Pro, and was looking for ways to upgrade my quicktime. I tried to follow the online instructions.
    Except that the Online instructions don't work for Windows Vista, because the instructions are set for XP. I know this because there is no Quicktime Control Panel in my computer's Control Panel. Unless I'm doing something wrong, which I might be.
    However, the issue is driving me up the wall and I'd really appreciate some help in getting to actually input the registration code SOMEWHERE.
    Thank you.

    QuickTime 7 Pro is activated by downloading the QuickTime 7 software from the Apple website. What you actually paid for is the registration to unlock the Pro features within QuickTime. What you should do is:
    1) download the latest version of QuickTime 7 and install in on your machine.
    2) there should be an icon in the Control Panel for both Vista + XP called "QuickTime" (if u don't see it, switch the Control Panel to Classic View located on the left hand tasks
    - OR -
    Open QuickTime 7 directly and click *Edit > Preferences > Register*
    3) enter your necessary registration info then click OK/Apply
    When it has updated, you can choose to update the software from *Help > Update Existing Software*
