Quicktime tutorial
i am following this tutorial:
http://www.apple.com/quicktime/tutorials/creatingvideo.html
and every time the export function fails to proceed. the box appears but nothing happens. i've tried different files including an itunes sample video but to no avail.i'm using quicktime pro 7 and trying to convert to ipod suitable format. any ideas? thanks adam.
This freeware also produces iPod compatible video. Specifiy the mpeg-4 format for iPod use. Depending on your cpu speed and the duration of the video it could take hours to encode with the H264 encoding that the Quicktime default iPod choice uses. Mpeg StreamClip

Does QuickTime 7.7 no longer support QTText descriptors?
Using QuickTime Pro 7.7.4 for Windows, I have been following various instructions found online for adding captions or subtitles to a video using a text file with QTText descriptors. I was having no luck getting most of the descriptors to work (font, style, left justification, drop shadow, etc.).The width and height of the text track were correct, and the time codes worked as they should. I was particularly confused by the font size; increasing it made no difference up to 24-point, and then the text suddenly jumped up to an enormous size.
I was thinking that the file must be formatted incorrectly, but after unintalling QuickTime and downgrading to 7.1.6, everything worked as it should.
Are there new text descriptors, or has support for this functionality been removed? I noticed that the list of descriptors on the Apple website is no longer present, only available in an archived version. I haven't tried this on a Mac; is this just a QuickTime for Windows issue?
Any insight would be greatly appreciated; thanks in advance!This is the closest instuction manual you'll find, an old archive.org version.

Timelapse Vids w/ Quicktime
So, I just made a short (:20 sec) timelapse video. I was wondering what the easiest way to add a video title, that will be displayed for those 20 seconds, would be? Any suggestions would be awesome.
Create a text file in the format described in the link below and open the file in QT7 and use QT7's "Edit / Add to movie" feature to add the text as an overlay on your video.
http://web.archive.org/web/20100103095852/http://www.apple.com/quicktime/tutoria ls/textdescriptors.html
Here is an example of a text track file that illustrates how text descriptors are used to control the formatting and timing of the text track.
{QTtext} {font:Geneva}
{plain} {size:9}
{timeScale:30}
{width:160} {height:32}
{timeStamps:absolute} {language:0}

New motion user here, questions
Hello all,
I am new to apple motion 2 and new to video and motion graphics as a whole. I just brought home a new dual core 2 ghz G5 and a 23 inch apple display about a month ago. I currently work doing still graphics, mostly layout and some illustration - working in photoshop, illustrator and indesign primarily. I also do a bit of audio work as a hobby using ableton live.
I have always had an interest in video and animation, but have never gotten into it for some reason. When choosing this machine I had considered the dual 2.5 but decided on the dual 2.0 primarily because "I don't do video, animation, or 3D work".
So, what does my wife buy me for Christmas? A digital video camera! I am not sure if I will pursue video and motion graphics on a professional level, but what I really want to do is artistic experimentation - video art if you will, combining my own video clips, graphics, sound effects, music, creativity and vision into motion monsters.
So, after talking with a few people I ordered motion 2 today and should have it by the end of the week. I do not even have the software yet and I am completely overwhelmed by the creative possibilities - and I am not even sure what they are yet! I am very excited to get into this.
One thing I am wondering about; as I stated above, when I chose my computer one of the reasons I chose the dual 2 ghz was specifically because I do not do this type of work. So now, of-course, I am worried that my machine is not going to be quite up to the task. I see that people are running motion on their powerbooks so I imagine I will be fine, but I suppose I am looking for some re-assurance to help quell my obsessive mind.
My stats are as follows:
Dual Core 2 GHZ G5
2.5 gigs DDR SDRAM
160 GB Hard-drive
NVIDIA GeForce 6600LE 128 mb VRAM
23 Inch Apple HD Display
Is my system going to be up to task? I am already thinking that I am going to need to upgrade my video card and probably buy another hard-drive. Not now, but sometime later in the year. Also, more ram is always good.
Can I expect to run into any limitations out of the box, and in my early stages of learning?
Again, I am sure I will figure this out on my own when my copy of motion arrives later this week but any advice about what I should expect would be great.
Also, any learning resources I should know of that are not immediately obvious on this forum? Suggested reading, books, online, etc. Tutorial dvd's are great for me. I purchased the 1st quicktime tutorial, "getting started in motion" from rippletraining.com and was utterly blown away by that simple lesson. Also, any online resources of work people have done using motion, especially video/audio integration. Bear in mind that although I do design and layout, and audio work I have exactly zero experience in motion graphics and video.
I'm really excited about the possibilities! So yes, if anyone could address my concerns regarding my system, and point me in the right direction for resources to get started I would greatly appreciate it.
Best regards, and thanks in advance -

g5 dual core 2.0 2.5 gigs ram
NVIDIA GeForce 6600LE 128 mb VRAM 23" apple monitor Mac OS X (10.4.3)Hi Graham, and thanks so much for your response.
Like I said before I am really in the dark when it comes to video and motion graphics so I bought motion on someones recomendation without knowing exactly what it is. Silly maybe? But I have a feeling I am going to be happy as I do not want to limit myself strictly to video alone.
I was a little worried that I had made the wrong choice, as I started to realize that motion is geared towards the creation of motion graphics, but regardless I think I will enjoy learning it and finding a way to integrate it into my vision (whatever that may be).
As far as a basic video editor goes, I will look at finalcut express but probably will need a couple of months before I can justify another purchase to the boss (my wife :-P ). In the mean time will iMovie suffice in your opinion for very basic editing and building? Does iMovie play well, or at all, with motion in your opinion?
I imagine I will be able to edit clips to a desired length and output them to motion then dump them back into iMovie if I'd like. I suppose I will find out.
Sheesh, so many questions! Anyway, I planned on getting final cut and after effects at some point down the road and am still excited about diving into motion.
Again, thanks for your response and once I am up and running I will be sure to post my work. -
Help...
I managed to figure out how to create a nice media skin with no thanks to the incomplete and confusing instructions on the Apple Quicktime tutorial, but with many thanks to kkirkster's website and a few others.
I am, however having an issue with the movie I created.
It plays perfectly. I mean, absolutely perfectly- on my computer.
If, however, I send the self-contained final version over to either of the other 2 computers in the office, the skin won't work right. It has an opaque box around it, where the OS is drawing the drop shadow. The skin is working, in a sense, because the transparent areas inside the box are still transparent, and the movie plays correctly.
It boggles my mind that it plays perfectly on my computer and not on the other computers, and I'm beginning to wonder if there isn't some issue with QT not actually saving the movie as a complete "Self Contained Movie" and is still referring to the files from the XML file.
Any help or experience with this issue would be greatly appreciated.

Des Moines, IAOk, this has worked for us... sort of.
If you're willing to look at this a little more for us-
We've got it to work perfectly in Safari only. All other browsers don't see the files.

Atmosphere & Trilogy have an Intel update
there are Intel wrappers for the Atmosphere & trilogy plugins
Cheers,
PaulI have successfully installed the Atmosphere wrapper and Atmosphere is running well in Logic 8/Leopard on Macbook Pro 2.4 gHz with 4 gig of ram. The .dat file is on an external FW800 drive. Buffer is set to 512. I haven't put it through it's paces in a full blown project, but so far it works fine and the installation process was easy. Spectrasonics has a quicktime tutorial for the installation process as well as a install document. The install directions were comprehensive and concise. I have been waiting a long time for this and I'm really happy to finally have it on my laptop. In case I wasn't clear, the install was quite easy.

iTunes U video files no longer work on my computer since i update to Mavericks. The following message appears on the screen "This movie requires QuickTime, which is not supported by this version of iTunes." I followed a tutorial that suggested to go to Applications/iTunes/Get Info and change to 32 bit. Now my iTunes does not open at all, it says it requires 64 bit. I am a bit confused and disappointed. What should I do to get it fixed? Buy a new MacBook?
Marcello, I am having the same problem. When following the advice of many in the community to start iTunes in 32-bit mode, I get the following error after I have done so:
I am running 10.9.2 on a mac mini.
I am hoping this will be fixed or at least a solid answer could be given that iTunes will no longer support certain types of media going foward. -
Hi everyone,
was prompted to upgrade itunes on my PC and also upgrade the software on my iphone 4s.Went through as usual but took 3 goes to get a successful upgrade of itunes on the PC. Then was prompted to update quick time, this was done successfully.
Thought I'd look at the tutorial video for itunes - the sound went off 11/2 minutes into it, then I couldn't stop it. I had a quick look around itunes and decided to sync my phone. The program recognised the phone then everything froze. Windows message for a non responding program came up and had to pull out of the program. So far after several hours I have not been able to get beyond stage 2 of 7 of syncing the phone; it keeps freezing up at different stages.
Any ideas?? I haven't had this kind of trouble before with any other version of itunes.
CheersStill nothing? Wow... maybe the quality of this discussion board really has gone down. Dissappointed.

To givingupusa - a simple Encore Tutorial
To givingupusa - a simple Encore Tutorial
I have CS5, so you need to go slowly to be sure you find the correct commands for your
version of Premiere Pro and Encore
This is for DVD only, since I don't do BluRay
Verify these steps with the book or PDF or help file!
Go past this tutorial exercise for links to online Tutorials
Even if you have a later version, this is a good book to learn Encore
http://www.amazon.com/Focal-Easy-Guide-Adobe-Encore/dp/0240520041/ref=sr_1_1?
This note is written specifically for "givingupusa" who can't get Dynamic Link to
ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1277266925
work... but, of course, anyone who is learning may find this to be helpful
Do your editing in Premiere Pro... do NOT use Dynamic Link (this exercise is to be sure
that you may create a file that Encore will use, and that Encore will, in fact, open
properly and actually use that file)
If you are editing HD, read this
Tutorial HD to SD w/CS4 http://bellunevideo.com/tutorials/CS4_HD2SD/CS4_HD2SD.html
This is just a test, so you don't need anything fancy or long in Premiere... a file (or
two?) totalling 10 minutes to as much as half an hour is all you need (keep this test
short, so you find out "quickly" if things work, or not)
When you are done editing, make sure you have selected to export the entire timeline,
then export to either DV NTSC (or Pal) Widescreen or DV NTSC (or Pal) if you are
editing 4:3 video
File-Export-Media... then, on the lower left, select Source Range of Entire Sequence
Upper right select Format Microsoft AVI then just below that Preset select NTSC DV
Widescreen (or PAL DV Widescreen) for widescreen material (if you have been editing
HiDef source) or NTSC DV (or PAL DV) if you have been editing SD material that is in
the 4:3 pixel ratio
Output Name will show a default of Sequence 01.avi which you double click to change to
a file name (and location) of your choice
Export Video and Export Audio are both checked by default... do not change that
Make NOTE of what it says after Output and Source... for this test, going from HD Flip
to DV AVI, mine says
Output 720x480, 29.97 [fps], Lower, Quality 100 - 48000 Hz, Stereo, 16 bit
Bottom right click Export... a window will pop up with a title of "Encoding Sequence
01" with a progress bar in the window... exit from Premiere when done
The result will be a FileName.AVI file (of course, FileName is YOUR actual file name
that you selected) which has video and sound all in one file
Find the Encore program icon that was created when you installed Premiere Pro and
Encore... double click the icon to start Encore... or, if you can't find a program
icon, click START - All Programs and then find Encore in the appropriate Adobe program
group
When Encore starts, select New Project and give it a name and location, and be sure the
DVD option is checked
Make NOTE of the Transcode Settings on this New Project Screen (NOTE that if you exit
from this project and come back to it later, you would select the project name you just
created, instead of New Project)
If your AVI file is large enough that you are going to do a dual layer DVD, Right Click
the Encore icon and select Run as Administrator (or you WILL have an Encore error!)
Make sure you are in the PROJECT panel (look on the upper left) and then File — Import
As - Timeline, and select your AVI File
In the lower right Library panel, use the Set: General, and Drag an appropriate Blank
Menu or Blank Menu WIDE to the Project Panel
In the Project panel Right Click the Menu and set as First Play
In the Flowchart panel in the center of the screen, Drag the AVI and drop it on the
Menu
While in the Properties panel on the upper right, click the AVI file once to set the
focus, then set AVI End Action to Return to Last Menu
Back in the center, with the menu selected, you will a wide button with text (mine
always defaults to Party Highlight 1 for some reason) which is the link from the menu
to play the video
Right Click and Rename (if you wish, figure out on your own how to move this command
button to a different location)
On the top left, select the Build panel
Click the Check Project and then Start in the popup window, and NOTE and fix any errors
3 main Output options are DVD Disc (to go direct to a DVD) or DVD Folder to create the
DVD file structure on your hard disk or DVD Image to create an ISO for later burning to
a DVD
I normally build an ISO and use the FREE Imgburn http://www.imgburn.com/index.php? to have more control over the burning settings (burn at the slowest speed
act=download
possible for a better burn) use Verbatim or Tayio Yuden discs (Change the ISO’s Name
via the Browse function)
For this test, I will use DVD Folder and create the DVD folder on my hard drive so I
may then play the DVD from that folder without burning a disc... only do this if you
have a DVD player installed... otherwise, burn to DVD to test at a TV
Even Empty the DVD-ROM says it uses 526k – for the "usual" overhead
Last step is to actually build the ISO File or Folder... I used H: for the folder (you
will, of course, use a drive letter appropriate to your computer setup)
After Encore finished, I used WinExplorer to find the VIDEO_TS folder, which (for my
short test) contained
VIDEO_TS.BUP
VIDEO_TS.IFO
VIDEO_TS.VOB
VTS_01_0.BUP
VTS_01_0.IFO
VTS_01_0.VOB
VTS_01_1.VOB
When I double clicked on VIDEO_TS.VOB my DVD player was activated, and the menu came up
on screen, where I could click the name I gave my movie... and the movie began to play
If you do not have this result... report back with all the NOTES you made and with any
error messages
If you are able to create a DVD this way... give up on Dynamic Link and use this
process
Now, some general information about Premiere Pro and Encore
This message has a really good graphic about requirements

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. -
Final Cut, Quicktime, and Pro Tools conflicts
Hi there,
I'm working on a "situation" I recently encountered, and wonder if anybody else has had this problem.
I'm trying to upgrade Pro Tools LE to version 6.9.2 with the install discs that were sent to me from Digidesign, and it's wreaking havoc with Final Cut Pro and Quicktime.
Initially when I installed the upgrade, I was running OSX 10.4.2, FCP 5.0.3 and QT 7.0.2. The Pro Tools upgrade worked fine, as did FCP when I launched it, but Quicktime wouldn't launch- spinning beachball forevermore.
So after doing all the basics- trashing pref's and render files, repairing permissions, etc.- and finding QT still wouldn't work, I tried upgrading to QT 7.0.3.
Once I did that, QT still wouldn't work, and Final Cut Pro would no longer launch. It just hung on the application startup screen, at no particular point each time.
I then upgraded to FCP 5.0.4, and as well OS 10.4.3. No luck. I installed the Pro Application Support updates 2005-02 1.0, and 3.1, and still no luck.
Since there is not yet a downgrade from QT 7.0.3 to 7.0.2, I ran the 7.0.2 to 7.0.1 installer, and downgraded to QT 7.0.1. QT still wouldn't launch, and FCP still hung on launch but this time it hung at the point where it was loading audio filters.
I tried removing the audio filters from their folders to see if it would launch then, but that didn't work. At this point, the only thing I could think to do was to uninstall Pro Tools altogether (safe uninstall, not clean uninstall) and this is what finally brought Quicktime and Final Cut back to life. Great, because I use FCP and QT everday, but I no longer have the use of Pro Tools.
Throughout this process I made sure to diligenty repair permissions, trash prefs, and restart whenever I made a change.
So I'm not sure at this point how to get Pro Tools LE 6.9.2, Final Cut Pro 5.0.4, and Quicktime (any version above 7.0) to work harmoniously, and I'm unable to spare any more troubleshooting time for a week or so because there are of course, projects due.
Has anybody else encountered these oddities?
Thanks a lot,
JoniHi, Joni C
I'm Bump,
I'm having the same trouble, I have FCP I'm running it on a G5 power Mac dual 2.5 ghz with 2.5 gb of memory, my os is 10.4.4. I also have Quicktime pro 7.0.3 and I have Pro Tools LE 7.0, every time I try to use FCP it starts and about five sec. later it shuts back down. I also have a Universal Audio UAD pci card that runs audio plugins and I also have fxpansion program it converts my vst & Au plugins to rtas for pro tools le. IBefore I installed FCP I wiped my hard drive and re installed a fresh version of tiger 10.4 and then I installed FCP studio, then Pro Tools, then all plugin and kept checking to make sure every thing was working correctly and then the U audio stuff with the Vst to rtas wrapper and it all was working fine. I even did the full final cut tutorial still worked fine. Yesterday out of no where final cut just stop working and still all the other programs work fine like dvd studios, soundtrack, motion, pro tools. If you can shead any light on this I would be very greatful

Can I convert a book made in iPhoto to a quicktime movie for the web?
Hi,
Please help, I have a great book that I have made in iPhoto and had printed but would like to post it to my mac website for people to be able to view with all the photos, titles, and audio. Is this possible?
Thanks.
JimJames:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. There are two ways you can do that.
While in the book mode, do a Print to PDF in the Print window but select the Send PDF to iPhoto option. This will start an Automator process that converts each page to a jpg file and imports it into a user determined album in iPhoto. NOTE: when the process is complete and it's time for you to name or select an album a window will be presented. BUT if often stays behind the other windows and you'll think the process has failed. So make sure you can hide the other windows if it doesn't present itself to you. It took me several tries before I realized what was happening.
Once the pages are in iPHoto as separate files, you can try:
1 - put them in an album and add to an iWeb photo page where they can be viewed individually or as a slideshow.
2 - create a slideshow in iPHoto, export to Quicktime and post that QT movie file to an iWeb page.
3 - create an iDVD project, add a slideshow and import the stills into iDVD to create a slideshow with music. A great gift to go along with a book. This method is explained in Tutorial #6.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
