QuickTime Pro to Flip

Used QuickTime Pro to convert Canon movie files (QuickTimeMovies) to MP4. In QuickTimePro I changed the file size to 1280x720 @ 30fpm but the Flip software still will not accept the conversion. Any help on doing this?

Did you check that the easy setup is matching properly with the audio/video settings of your material (once converted)?
The audio file should be AIFF 16 bits, 48KHz if you chose one of the 48KHz easy setup. Have you tried exporting only the audio with those settings and see when applied to the timeline if rendering is still needed?

Quicktime pro and flip 4 mac

Every time I try to export a movie in QuickTime (Pro), in various formants, Flip 4 Mac comes up and says it will put a watermark on the movie unless I buy the Flip4Mac pro.
Thanks

If your source file is in WMP format or your export option is to WMP formats then you are working using the "trial mode" of the Flip4Mac software.
You must purchase one of the upgrades to that third party software to complete your task.

Can Quicktime Pro convert Flip MinoHD video for Adobe Premiere 2.0

The Flip MinoHD shoots pretty good video that I want to edit in Adobe Premiere 2.0. The problem is that the Flip HD files are in a .mp4 format that Premiere doesn't recognize.
Can Quicktime Pro convert the Flip .mp4 files into
1) .avi files 720x480 with the DV standard that Adobe Premiere 2.0 can edit? I believe this type of file is a "type 2 avi".
2) a type of HD file that Adobe Premiere 2.0 can edit (when editing HD video - mostly from my sony HD camcorder whose files work fine with Premiere.)?

If QT Player can open those files, it should be able to export them into a format Premiere can work with. You can see the export formats QuickTime supports here:
http://www.apple.com/quicktime/pro/specs.html
Note that AVI is a container format. QT, I believe, exports AVI using the Cinepak codec by default, so make sure Premiere supports that or select a different format (DV Stream, perhaps).
Pro adds nothing in the way of playback capabilities, so try the free QuickTime and see if it can open and play those files. If it can't, then don't waste your money on a QuickTime Pro key.

I downloaded QuickTime 7 on my windows computer, and already have purchased the code for QuickTime Pro. how do i install it?

Open QuickTime Player and look under the Edit menu.

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.

Flash 9 Flip4mac conflict with Quicktime Pro

Any one have this fun? I can't install Flip4mac without it conflicting and killing Flash 9/Quicktime movies in my browser (ala youtube). Seems to be since I installed Quicktime Pro. Running on an Intel MacBook Pro 10.4.10. Same problem with Safari of Firefox. Thanks - Eric

Why would Flip-4-Mac conflict with flash/quicktime? Flip-4-Mac doesn't even play flash...
Are you saying you can't view youtube videos?
If so thry this:
Go to your Quicktime Preferanes in the System Preferance panel. Click on the Advance tab. Click on MEMI button...scroll down to the very bottom of the list. Miscellaneous ... uncheck Flash media.
And make sure you have the latest version of Flash too...Close out Quicktime and all browsers. Reopen the browser and try youtube again...

I registered quicktime pro but it's nowhere to be found. Help!

I paid for Quicktime Pro and entered the registration code and got a message "Thank you for registering Quicktime Pro" but I don't see it anywhere. I've restarted a couple of times. My Mac OS X version is 10.5.8. The Quicktime Player version is 7.6.9. I saw something on the web that said I'll need the operating system DVD, can that be right?? I'm not sure I ever had one, my Macbook came with everything installed. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!

For all I knew, not finding obvious evidence of QT Pro in your QT Player immediately after registration was a common problem (as indeed I notice from the discussions that it is) with a quick, common answer (wrong again)
The most obvious evidence is that as soon as your name and registration key is recognized, the QT logo changes from the simple "Q" to a "Q" with the word "Pro" superimposed over it. In addition, the phrase "QuickTime 7 Pro" is displayed under the "Registration Code:" entry and the "Buy" button disappears from the window. All of these things occur in the registration window. Less obvious but more important to the QT 7 Pro user, a number of previously grayed out options become user accessible as soon as a QT compatible file is opened in a Player window.
I really didn't think anybody would be particularly interested in my work flow.
By knowing the work flow, it is often easy to determine if a problem is in the application, the system, the system configuration, or the work flow itself.
But yes, I am compliant and the files are all saved to iphoto libraries, they just can't go anywhere from there, and so I'm concluding that Flip files are NOT compatible with QuickTime or iMovie, at least in the particular configuration I have, and I guess that's fine because there aren't even going to be be Flip cameras much longer.
The fact that the files will import to iPhoto indicates the data in a file container that is compatible with QT. The fact that the files cannot be imported to iMovie indicates the files either contain compression formats that are not QT "edit" compatible or they contain tracks of data that are not iMovie compatible. If the files will not open in the QT 7 Pro Player, then that tells us the compression format(s) are not QT "playback" compatible which usually means you are missing a QT component required to decode one or more of the data tracks. Once you know this, the normal thing to do is to determine what component you need to install on your system if available.
One way to do this if the file can't be opened in the QT Player is to open the Finder "Info" window for the file and see if it recognizes the compression format. If it does, well and good. If not, you would normally try an alternative media player which supplies its own codec within the player. VLC is one of the most popular media players for this purpose. Simply open the file in VLC and see if it plays. If it does, you simply open the "Window/Media Information" window, expand the stream info area to learn audio and video codecs used to encode the file data. Once you know this, you can see if a component is available for installation. This entire process is quite logical with the results of each step pointing the way to the next action to be accomplished. Thus, the work flow and descriptions of what happens become very import to the process of diagnosing the cause of your problems.
So, having said this, what type of file containers (file extension) are involved here and what compression format(s) do they contain? (I.e., in the past different Flip cameras have used different file/format combinations with some changing the file/format combination depending on the "quality" setting currently being used to record the video.

I have quicktime pro and it does NOT have the screen record mode that Quicktime is suppose to have. Can I uninstall it and go back to an older version that would have screen recording? If so, how? Step by step needed. Thank you for your time.

Did you remove Quicktime X?
On a normal install Quicktime 7 is installed in the Utilities folder and Quicktime Pro in the main Applications folder.
You will need to reinstall OS X to get Quicktime X back if you have deleted it.
I notice yor profile says 10.5.8. Quicktime X is only available on 10.6 and above.

Unable to use 'copy' feature with registered version of quicktime pro.

Hi.
I have a registered version of Quicktime pro (7.1.6), and i am unable to use the copy feature. I captured several videos from work using a windows box and an application whose name escapes me at the moment. Due to the windows app being garbage, i was only able to capture in MPEG1 format (MPEG2 caused the app to crash, of course). I have brought the files home and am now unable to copy selections of it for exporting into smaller files. I can highlight lengths of the video (no audio, just video) but the 'copy' feature is grayed out still. Any ideas on what is causing this? The video format is as follows:
MPEG1 Muxed, 640 x 480
FPS: 29.97
Data rate: 4066.42 kbits/sec
I'm running 10.3.9, but have also had no success on a 10.4 macmini, so the OS doesn't seem to be the issue.
I'm trying to get this video into imovie, but since it's over 600 megs, imovie cops out after a few hours and says it can't import it.
Help?

Not all multiplexed videos come with AC3. They don't have to have audio in the first place. Some of them come with Linear PCM, which is the case for iDVD's VOB files, and MP2. If a multiplexed video is equipped with AC3, you are right, and the resulting modified sub-clip won't contain audio. But if it's Linear PCM or MP2, the edited sub-clip will contain audio.
I'm finished with this case.

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.

I am traveling with my macbook pro and I forgot to install final cut express and quicktime pro before I left. How can I in a way download them for free on my laptop from where I am

I am traveling with my macbook pro and I forgot to install final cut express and quicktime pro before I left. How can I in a way download them for free on my laptop from where I am? I need them and don't want naturally to buy them again!!!
Thank you

Assuming you purchased QT Pro, you can always download it again at no extra charge by logging in to your Apple account.
Regarding FCE, there is no way to download & install the product. You need an original FCE install disk and your FCE serial number.
Final Cut Pro X (aka FCPX) can be purchased & downloaded from the App Store.

QuickTime Pro - I am trying to find a way to retrieve my Quick Time Pro code and re-register it but, because I bought it more than 180 days ago, I cannot find the code anywhere, or any way to get an answer from Apple's website.

I have been going round in circles, trying to resolve this
I bought the MPEG2 component from the Apple UK store on 4th July 2010. I still have the email and the order number but they are no use to me because it is more than 180 days since I ordered this from them.
My operating system got corrupted and I had to do a clean install, then a return of the relevant files, folders and applications from my Time Machine. With that should have been my MPEG2 component for QuickTime Pro but it refuses to register.
I need it to convert my videos taken on my older video camera, which is a Sony, using mpeg2. I cannot look at any of these videos any more, which is deeply irritating. Still lots of editing to do.
I think it is a bit off if I have to buy it all over again
Any ideas?
Mac OS X 10.6.8
Quick Time and Quick Time 7

I still have the email and the order number but they are no use to me because it is more than 180 days since I ordered this from them.
The registration cade is contained in the email Apple sent you on purchasing.

I cannot enter the key code for updating to QuickTime Pro 7 as there is no Icon in Preferences and no Registration option in menu?

I have followed the clear instructions to enter the purchased key code for QuickTime Pro 7. There are two options offered:-
1. Go into Preferences and select the QuickTime Player icon and enter the code that way.
2. Open QuickTime Player and open up ‘registration’ and enter the key code.
For whatever reason I have neither option available to me although QuickTime player is on my system and I use it regularly. It is version 10 build (118). I have run software updates and there is no upgrade available. I have downloaded the latest version and tried to load it but this fails because the system finds a version already available. I have attempted to uninstall but whilst it moves it from the Application folder, it remains on the Mac as it is part of the system files. So I cannot use the Pro version. The iMac is a 27” Intel about a year old and has all the software updates available to me installed.
Any offers for suggestions or past experiences that can help me overcome this conundrum?

Both answers were spot on. I made the mistake yesterday of downloading the version for Leopard in my haste. I also thought the issue was related to having to uninstall the current version X.
So the moral of the episode is check the version you have and make certain you download the correct version for your system. All works now.
Thanks chaps!

I would like to convert an animated Gif to .mov, will Quicktime Pro 7 do this? Should I spend the money?

Hi everyone.
I'm looking to put a few animations onto keynote and I'm making my presentation on PowerPoint.
I need to convert an animated gif into a .mov file and was wondering whether Quicktime Pro 7 does this?
Thanks

I need to convert an animated gif into a .mov file and was wondering whether Quicktime Pro 7 does this?
Since it appears QTKirk has provided the best answer for your specific work flow issue as stated, I will answer your more general question...
Yes, QT 7 Pro can open an animated GIF file and save it as an MOV file. At this time the real question is whether or not the MOV file produced is suitable for your needs. Basically the MOV file can be then then be played—but it only plays one pass in the normal playback mode. You can, of course opt to loop the playback which, for a small files, plays much as the original GIF.
Unfortunately, the "Loop" setting is not saved when the MOV file is saved, so this option must be re-initialized each time the MOV file is opened. This would not be a problem if all you are doing is openening the file in the QT 7 player and letting it play in the looped mode all day as some sort of display but would likely be an unsatisfoactory solution for sending the MOV file to someone else. You could, of course, turn the MOV file into a QTL file with the loop option set to get around this problem.
While I would be hard pressed to say it would be a good investment just for the creation of GIF movie files, QT 7 Pro does offer a lot of other features that make it a bargain utility for many quick edit requirements if you use/need them.

Streaming and Delivery using Quicktime Pro software.

I was reading the tutorial about Streaming and Delivery with the Quicktime Pro software. I have questions around the steps that are listed to be taken in order to create a streaming video. Here are a list of the steps and the link to this website page.
http://www.apple.com/quicktime/tutorials/
Streaming & Delivery
Interested in streaming content from your site? Learn how to do everything from preparing your media for streaming to setting up a live broadcast and even displaying your media right inside the web browser.
1. Preparing to Deliver Streaming Media
2. Hint Tracks
3. Delivering Live Streaming Media
4. Reference Movies
5. Embedding QuickTime
The question I have is about step 2 Hint Tracks and what the tutorial says:
Movies that are intended for streaming via QuickTime Streaming Server must be hinted—that is, they need a hint track for every streamable media track. The hint tracks tell the server exactly how to package the media data for the network.
So these movies are not intended for streaming via Quicktime streaming server.. not even sure what this means but our server I believe is Windows 2000. So can I skip this part of setting up the video for streaming and just follow steps 1,3,4 and 5 or do I need to find someother way to do this?

QuickTime Pro only helps make .mov and .mp4 files ready for streaming. The files it creates must be served using special software.
