Quicktime Pro - Resample HD video

I'm on a G4 Dual 1.4 GHz. I'm trying to resample HD video from 1080p, which plays very stuttering, to a lower resolution which my mac can play.
I have Quicktime Pro 7.6.4 and Flip 4 Mac.
If I use Export and choose a lower resolution, the export process takes FOREVER.
Is this the best I can expect? or am I missing a crucial step?

Are you just trying to play it, or edit it in some way?
the export process takes FOREVER
Well, how long is the video? And how long is "forever"? For an older system such as yours, it could be perfectly reasonable.

  • Quicktime Pro, Problem Converting Video to iPod

    When I convert my movie files using Quicktime Pro I encounter a problem. After the converting is over the video works on my iPod, but the audio track is lost and there is no sound. Can anyone help me?
    Thanks
    -Jason

    Check to make sure it is not a muxed mpeg by opening the source file in QT Player and looking at MovieInfo in the Windows menu. If it is a muxed mpeg you will have to use something other than QT since it will not export the sound from mpegs. Some people have had good results with this freeware, but there are other Windows programs starting to appear for iPod conversion:

  • Can Quicktime Pro convert CamStudio video into iMovie?

    Dear All
    I use CamStudio to record some Windows application presentations. I heard that QuickTime Pro gives the ability to convert any playable movie to be converted to formats that iMovie accepts. I am pondering if I should by QuickTime pro or not. Could you please give me some advice? Here are my questions.
    I am wondering if anyone has tried to import the video recorded using CamStudio to QuickTime Pro and convert to a format that iMovie can accept and edit?
    Another question would be, is there any formatting limitation iMovie possesses which limits the merger of two videos from two sources?
    Thanks in advance for your answers.

    Here's the summary of what I did :
    Downloaded [CamStudio|http://camstudio.org>
    Openen VirtualBox on my Mac and installed Camstudio in Win XP.
    Made a screenmovie.
    Saved it to the Mac.
    Opened it in QT Pro on the Mac.
    Exported it to QuickTime (.mov) and MPEG-4 (.mp4).
    Opened both in iMovie.
    Made movie with both clips.
    Exported it to .m4v.
    So it is possible.
    And here's the movie : [CamStudio|http://www.wyodor.net/_Discussions/CamStudio.html]

  • Quicktime Pro and getting videos off the web

    I am bound and determined to get videos off the web and use them to make my own videos and what not. I was wondering if quicktime pro is the best program to use for my project. I have downloaded other programs that don't work and I am sick of the hassle. If there is a sure thing program anyone knows about, I'd love to know. Otherwise, it would be great to hear about quicktime pro and it's adeptness or otherwise at successfully getting videos off the web.

    Okay I figured out how to do that, but once it is downloaded, I am still having trouble. I don't know which application to use to open the file. Quicktime won't open it because it says it's not a movie file. I downloaded a standalone player and that couldn't open it either. What do I do?

  • Quicktime pro updated but video options dont show up

    I bought the Pro upgrade, I already had 7.0.3 player, installed the license key in control panel and it appears to have been accepted, since it says Quicktime Pro in the control panel.
    When I launch player, In help about "Buy Quicktime Pro" is greyed out, so it appears the upgrade key worked
    BUT
    there are no choices for making new video recording ?
    When I chack for updates it says the Update server is not available?

    Sorry.
    Video recording is only a feature of the Mac version of QuickTime Pro.
    Others have reported issues with the Software Update feature and it occurs on some Mac's as well.
    Maybe the next update will fix the "auto-update" feature.

  • 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.

  • Windows Quicktime Pro problems - no video screens [under "file"]

    I have downloaded and installed Quicktime Pro and keyed in correct registration codes. [Quicktime 7 Pro is displayed] When in Apple Quicktime Pro- I am unable to see any kind of video screen data under "file" - Audio info is there [New audio recording]- but no video screens of any kind. I thought that maybe Quicktime Pro could not recognize my web camera [Panasonic]
    I have tried: switching firewire cards[3 others] and switched around quicktime preferences ie - Video to Safe mode/Direct X - still no change.
    When I connect camera, Digital Video device on computer acknowledges that there is a camera and gives me 4-5 software choices ie - Adobe, Windows Media Player but Quicktime Pro is not one of them.
    Help ! - Any suggestions would be appreciated.

  • Can Quicktime Pro convert .mkv video formats to mp4 video formats

    I purchased Quicktime Pro believing it could convert .mkv video formats to MP4 video formats, however, the resulting output file is just a 60kb file from an original 971,936 kb file.
    I registered the key as given to me in the purchase receipt email, I used Export to MRP, I selected the input .mkv file. All seemed to be OK until it ended creating the short 60kb file.
    Suggestions please.

    I purchased Quicktime Pro believing it could convert .mkv video formats to MP4 video formats, however, the resulting output file is just a 60kb file from an original 971,936 kb file.
    As indicated on the Apple web site, keying the QT Player for "Pro" use merely unlocks editing and conversion features built into the app but not available without the key. It does not add any new file type or codec support beyond that for which the QT Player is already configured on your platform.
    I registered the key as given to me in the purchase receipt email, I used Export to MRP, I selected the input .mkv file. All seemed to be OK until it ended creating the short 60kb file.
    An MKV file will convert only if you have support for both the MKV file container (which is not natively QT compatible) and codecs to handle the specific codecs contained in the MKV file container if available for QT use.
    Suggestions please.
    I do not normally use MKV files on a daily basis and so, on those occasions when I do need to use them as a source for conversions to mobile devices, I use the free HandBrake application. As I see it, you can either try to add the missing support needed to use QT 7 Pro or you could download HandBrake for iTunes managed/mobile device files or use FFmpeg (on which HandBrake is based) for more general target conversions. As a non-PC user, I am assuming here that the Windows versions of both the HandBrake and FFmpeg apps have the same features as are available in the Mac versions of these apps.

  • Quicktime Pro wont save video in rotated version, reverts to original.

    Despite following all the steps to rotate a video saved from iphone 4 it won't save its new version (PC) ..have clicked save as , re-named file and it will save as a new file but it is still upside down in the thembnail and if you open it with any other media player (e.g) VLC it plays upside down again ...the strange thing is all upside down videos appear fine when Quicktime opens them but the thumbnails  and any other media format /player, recognise them as upside down ...HELP /explanations please

    By export it work properly, but we lost main advantage QT,- speed. It one reason for me only for using QT as the editor... I have 264codec in .mov files from my camera. If I split them, merge, add music and text, that all need for home video. QT to make that operations in some seconds... But export proceed some hours!!
    The export is only required if you are making changes like display rotation AND viewing the results in a non-QT media player like VLC. If you will be viewing the results in the QT media player only, then the quicker "Save"/"Save As..." option should play correctly.
    May be you know as to accelerate export?
    Export speed depends on the the settings used and the hardware involved. Using a newer, faster platform or using a hardware accelerator like the Turbo.264 HD is usually the easiest way to improve conversion speed.
    That problem is valid not only for ROTATE, but for added MUSIC and TEXT  too.
    Not sure about your problem here but this may be a problem with a straight "Save"/"Save As..." option not flattening track content. For instance, if you merge/add multiple audio tracks and then view the results in a media player or on a device that only plays one track at a time, then only the default track will be heard. (I.e., unlike the QT player which plays all "active" tracks in a file simultaneously.) On the other hand, the export flattens (combines) all of the audio tracks to a single audio track which then plays correctly in such software and on such devices.

  • Exporting videos to Ipod format qith QuickTime Pro

    Hey guys,

Wheather i try listening to is on my computer or on the ipod, no audio at all. Did anyone experience the same thingf? Does anyone know what i'm doing wrong, or how to fix it?
    thank you,
    -chris-

    Open the original video in QT Player and check MovieInfo. If it says the video is a muxed mpeg then QT Player Pro will not convert the sound from such videos: QT Mpeg Limitations
    Some Windows users have reported success with this freeware Windows program.

  • QuickTime Pro Video Controls

    I have upgraded to QuickTime Pro but the video controls in "A/V Controls" are not functioning. Solutions? Thanks.

    Are you saying that even if I can display the A/V control panel, if the controls are not highlighted for me to adjust brightness, etc , its because of my graphics card?

  • QuickTime Pro Video Capture

    I cant seem to figure out how to capture video from a USB capture card to QuickTime Pro. I know I installed it correctly, but no video that is supposed to pop up ever did when i finished appling QuikTime Pro settings. I can barily tell a diference, and i need to know how to capture video to QuickTime Pro. Please let me know if a wasted my money.

    Even the Mac version of QuickTime Pro can't capture "on screen" events. We use third party software for those tasks just like Windows users.
    QuickTime Pro "Record" (New Video Recording - Mac only or New Audio Recording - Mac or PC) works with the built in devices found on a Mac (iSight camera) or external devices meeting the requirements (usually Firewire connection).
    I use SnapzProX on my Mac (about $70) to record on screen events. Similar products for Windows sell for as little as $20.
