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 Recording Times Out

    When I use the new Quicktime Pro video record feature, it times out after approx. 15 minutes.
    Anyway to extend this?
    Thanks!
    Bill

    I haven't seen a time out like that, but perhaps it's related to reaching a 2 GB file size. You might try later QuickTime, or different compression settings to keep the file smaller.

  • QuickTime Pro Video Conversion

    I know i just posted about video capture, but i also have a question about how to convert video types to a different type. Please again let me know if i wasted my money.

    QuickTime Pro does not export to MPEG-1. But it can view them.
    I guess that you mean WMP (Windows Media Player) formats and the Windows version of QuickTime Player doesn't open those formats. The Mac version uses third party software (Flip4Mac) that allows some WMP formats be viewed inside QuickTime Player.
    Why do you want to convert to MPEG-1? What is the goal of this conversion?
    Toast from Roxio can create MPEG-1 files from numerous video formats.

  • 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.

  • Quicktime Pro Video to iPod Problem-desperate

    I know a lot of dicussions have touched on this, but no matter how much I look I cannot find an answer to my problem of the video from my digital camera via Qicktime Pro 7 not exporting to a movie format on my hard drive. I export it, a file appears on desktop and then I double click it to check it. Then Windows says that it needs me to choose a program. I choose Quicktime Pro 7. Then I get a message saying file isn't a movie. Please help a brother here. Thanks!!!

    Stephen
    Check the Properties of your converted movie in Quicktime Pro 7.
    It should look something like this :
    http://www.arc-facilities-edinburgh.co.uk/ipod/settings.jpg
    This is from a converted movie which plays in iTunes and loads to the iPod fine.
    Note you should have one video track encoded in H264 up to 768 kilobits per second and one audio track encoded in AAC up to 160 kilobits per second
    Alternatively you can use mp4 (MPEG-4) for your pictures up to 2.5 megabits per second
    Let us know if your movie properties are any different.

  • QuickTime Pro video from DVD

    I have previously made home movies on DVD. (I used Click to DVD as the program to create them.) How can I convert them to QuickTime so that I can play them on an IPOD when I am away from home?
    There really isn't anything in the manual that specifically addresses this situation. Any my computer knowledge is rather basic.
    Thanks,
    Louise

    One way to do it is to use this freeware to make ipod videos. Use the mpeg-4 export. Only catch is that you will have to buy the mpeg2playbackcomponent from Apple since DVD vobs are almost always made with mpeg-2 video. Mpeg StreamClip
    Note that the freeware is available in both Mac and Windows XP versions.

  • Quicktime Pro Video Tutorials

    Not more than 1 or 2 months ago there were some video tutorials on developer.apple.com, teaching people how to create hinted movies, and basic editing with QT pro. In those videos appeared (apple employees) people that work on the QT platform. The videos were linked off apple's main website, but I can't remember where. I've searched all over the place, but with the new website layout things are not where they used to be.
    Any hints would be appreciated.
    Thanks!

    thanks for trying, but no. i know how to login to developers.apple.com; i have an account. what i'm looking for is video tutorials on how to use QT pro made by apple employees that work on the QT platform. i was able to find those on the main apple.com QT page!?, than i was directed to developers.apple.com to d/l those videos.

  • Bought Quicktime pro, videos still wont go to ipod

    am i doing something wrong here, is there a trick, i just played 30 bucks and i follow the instuctions for converting the files and the videos still wont go onto my ipod, help anyone please!

    If you're using the export to iPod setting on QT Pro have a look at your completed movie properties and see if they look like this :
    http://www.arc-facilities-edinburgh.co.uk/ipod/settings.jpg
    (from a converted movie that looks good and loads onto iPod fine)
    You should have one video track H264 format at less than 768 kbps
    one audio track AAC encoded at less than 160 kbps.
    Don't ask me why the video is 300 x 240 rather than 320 x 240!
    If you're using MP4 instead post your settings, you may have something wrong.

  • QuickTime Pro Video fade-in fade-out How To?

    Hello
    I am a newcomer and I would like to know if it is possible to do between two video clips a fade-out and a fade-in? If not what could be a possible alternative solution?
    Many many thanks for all your support.
    Bernd

    For each text box you need place it on it's own video track stacked above each other.You can then define the position, fades, and opacity for each individual title.

  • Unable to find rotate controls in Quicktime Pro 7.6 for Windows

    I have a number of Quicktime movies that I have taken with my digital camera. A number of them have been shot in portrait orientation instead of landscape so I bought Quicktime Pro in order to rotate them. Unfortunately I cannot find the controls to do so. I have followed the instructions in the manual:
    To resize or rotate a QuickTime movie:
    1 In QuickTime Player, choose Window > Show Movie Properties.
    2 In the Properties window, select a video track and click Visual Settings.
    3 To resize the movie, type new numbers in the Current Size fields.
    To keep the same height-to-width proportions, select Preserve Aspect Ratio.
    4 To rotate the movie, click one of the rotate buttons.
    but when I open the Show Movie Properties window and select a video track there is no "Visual Settings" box to select and so I cannot access the resize or rotate controls.
    Any advice anyone?

    It's okay I've found them now.
    If anyone else has this problem, you have to select the row at the top of properties that says "video track" rather than the one with the filename in order to get the visual settings tab and make sure that you have the box to the left of the row checked otherwise you won't be able to see the results.

  • OS 10.3.9 and QT Pro 7 = no video controls

    I went against my normal behavior and obeyed when the computer said to upgrade from QuicktimePro 6 to Quicktime 7.0. Then discovered I had to pay another $30 to make it be the Pro version But no video controls are there - apparently I must first buy various upgrades, like a new computer, it sounds like from the forums. Video controls are why I originally bought Quicktime Pro. I could have gone back to v.6 from 7.0, but not if I'm as high as 7.1.3 (I am). At first I thought I could go back to 6 Pro and use the Pro 7 license for the husband's WindowsXP upstairs. You can't even use the license key in Windows, though.
    I think this is outrageous. Does Apple know how angry people get when they feel tricked? Most people don't have money to keep buying lots of computer stuff. Or want to be eternally tinkering.
    Is there a (preferably free) program that will brighten a .mov, .mpeg-2, .mp4...or adjust contrast? I couldn't make mpeg streamclip do it yesterday. Oh, I did try exporting .mov to .mov to make those adjustments, and the result was a bad degradation.

    I didn't miss having Quicktime 7 for 2 years untill I encountered a video that wouldn't play without it, as I recall. I was making a lot of videos and wanted to try new features, as well.
    Yes - I thought I would register with the same registration number I had before. Why worry if Installation says older Pro versions won't work - wouldn't the new one be all that and better?
    The info page http://www.apple.com/quicktime/player/mac.html says you'll have the a/v extra features if you have Tiger and a graphics card. I thought the other way to have the features would be to get the Pro version, like it worked for Quicktime 6. Bad assumption. Do the auto-updates with checkboxes that suddenly appear on our screens even send us to that info page?
    For simpletons (we are legion) they could say for instance "your computer may not have enough power for the free Quicktime 7 a/v features or smooth streaming video (apparently) etc, even if you're running Tiger"......Quicktime 7 is simply labeled, in Versiontracker for instance, as designed for system 10.3.9 and up.
    I didn't mind paying the $30 for QT7Pro version, but was surprised that I ended up with less useful everyday features than I'd had. I felt tricked, but I don't read slowly and carefully enough, and I know Apple wasn't trying to trick me, just push me toward their store.
    fflynn - thanks for the idea. It sounds brilliant. Setting up a separate volume - not sure what that is - sounds scary, but I'll learn today.

  • 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.

  • Editing video file in Quicktime Pro and producing a file which doesn't play

    Hi all,
    I have been editing some mp4 video in Quicktime Pro by setting the in and out position markers and cutting out segments (commercials). I save the file and end up with a .mov file which plays fine in the Quicktime player. (The file is a self-contained Quicktime movie.) At some point in the future, though, when I go to open the file in the Quicktime Player, only the audio plays. The video does not play, and the file opens as if it contained no video. That is, the Quicktime Player only shows the audio controls, and there's no area for video.
    The same file plays fine in a Finder window when using CoverFlow/QuickView mode, which is very strange to me since I assume that uses the same Quicktime engine. It also plays fine in VLC.
    Any ideas? It seems like there's some attribute on the file which is telling the Quicktime Player not to play the video, only play the audio.
    Thanks in advance,
    Russ

    Any ideas?
    First thing I would do when the file opens as an audio only files is check the "Properties" window to see what it says on a track by track basis. I also might try re-compressing the edited file to see if this prevents whatever is going on.

  • How can I convert video in a WMA format to play in QuickTime Pro?

    I have installed my QuickTime Pro, but cannot play any of my videos that I already have stored on my computer. They are all in the WMA format. Is there anyway I can convert these files to play in Quicktime Pro? I also cannot figure out how to download a video from my digital video camera into QuickTime Pro. Can you help me with this? Additionally, I cannot figure out how to download from my digital camera into QuickTime Pro. All of these functions I would like to do, are so I can take these videos & pictures and download them to my IPOD. HELP - thanks Mike Mirsch

    Hi again Mirsch,
    I have Mac OS X and I have Quicktime 7.1 Pro.
    I know that you can record a movie by making a new movie recording. Use the fire-wire connection to do this and have you camera in playback or deck mode. This is probably not the best way to import video to your pc. I say this because it might not be a lossless ingest of video (depending on your quicktime preferences>recording settings.
    Try saving your dv video onto your pc using a program like premier (i use iMovie and Final Cut Express).
    Good luck,

  • Can anyone tell me if Quicktime Pro retains aspect ratio once a video is rotated?

    I'm reluctant to purchase Quicktime Pro until I know the answer to this question and Apple Support doesn't seem to have anyway to ask, so I thought I'd try this group.
    I took some videos with my iPhone (the long way), and need to be able to rotate them and convert them to avi files.  I understand that Quicktime Pro can do the rotation and conversion, but I saw one review that said the aspect ratio is not retained, i.e. the video comes out flattend (wider).
    Can anyone tell me if this is still true with QT Pro, or if there are other solutions for resolving this outside of QT Pro??  I have tried a number of other converters, and found one that rotates, but aspect ratio not retained.
    Thanks in advance for any help shared!!!

    This may or may not depend on your specific work flow. Many "settings' saved to the original file by QT 7 Pro are merely "playback instructions" which may or may not play correctly in other media players while these same settings do work properly when saved/converted to a new file container. In addition, not being a Windows user, I don't know if there are are any significant differences between the Mac and Windows versions of QT 7. In any case, I just took a short sample clip, stored it on my hard drive via Aperture 3, opened the file in QT 7 Pro, rotated the clip in QT 7 Pro, and used the "Save As..." command to store the modified file. This modified file now plays correctly in current versions of the QT 7, MPEG Streamclip, and VLC media players. Have uploaded a copy of this file so you can download it, test playback in various players you normally use, and/or test convert it to your specific AVI audio and video compression formats.

    As indicated above, the file plays correctly for me in various media players and all media "Inspector" windows, including other third party media information utilities, confirm the correct dimensions and aspect ratio as displayed. As to AVI conversion, I test converted the uploaded file to AVI (DivX5/MP3) at original dimensions using VisualHub. (Also tried the VideoMonkey AVI encode but it limited the source 720p file to a 720x480 output and I did not know if you were agreeable to such a restriction.) Suggest you run similar tests with your preferred Windows converters to confirm/refute results on your system.
