Quicktime7.4 and JVC GZ-HD7U

i just upgaed from quick time 7.2 to 7.4 as reccommended by apple software update.. now i cannot open my JVC HD files nor can i transfer them into imoviehd6 or FCE 4.. any help would be greatly appreciated
images captured and transferred using quicktime 7.2 still open and can be read...
withe he new download, the message.."movie contains and incorrect duration" appears.. what the heck is that?

It does have something to do with the new QT update, and all you have to do is go to this link http://www.macfixit.com/article.php?story=20080208085017788 and follow the directions for downloading Pacifist, followed by replacing the new QT with version 7.3.1. It works like a charm. After you do all of this, you will be able to import your .tod files from a folder on your computer to iMovie HD.
Trust me, this works. I've been searching all over the internet for a solution to this problem, and finally found this solution. I was able to import my movie files without converting them with ease, just as I had always done before. Good luck!

I can't not transfer files in 'log and transfer' of Final Cut Pro. I recorded it in SD card using Nikon D7000 and JVC GY-HM100U.

I think I need plug-in. Please let me know. Thank you.

Well, the Nikon D7000 footage cannot be logged and transferred. There is no plugin for that like there is for the Canon cameras. Nikon never developed one. So the footage from that camera will need to be converted with Compressor or MPEG STREAMCLIP.
The JVC should work...what version of FCP are you on?

IPod and JVC Car Stereo random resetting problem

Hey all,
I recently bought my first iPod (yay!), a 30gig 5th generation. I also had a JVC KD-PDR30 cd player installed in my car so that I could hook up the iPod to it and eliminate all the random cds cluttering up my vehicle. It works great -- most of the time... the last few days I've my iPod has been randomly resetting itself while connected to the car stereo -- it's connected through the dock port (not the headphone jack) and works 90% of the time. Even still, this is frustrating. I almost want to just connect it from the headphone jack to the aux in on the car stereo. Anyway, it only seems to do this while it is connected to the car stereo. I've never had a problem with the iPod resetting while using it outside of the car. Anyone have any suggestions? Thanks Apple community!!!

I had the JVC radio with iPod connector which worked just fine for my old iPod. When I upgraded to the iTouch I had to put in a new JVC stereo. The old version does not work with the iTouch (the same issues prev. stated). The new stereo has an USB hookup on the front. It plays the iTouch, but occas. the song or book will skip. At first I thought it was when I turned corners, but realized it was just random. A bit annoying. I looked at other stereos, but I could not get the iTouch and Sirus in the same unit, except for the JVC. If you can live without your iTouch I would wait until JVC or Apple address this issue. I could not live without either (I hate commercials!), so I made the jump to the first generation. I know better.

24" aluminium imac and JVC HDD camcorder ??

Hey guys
Some help please. I have just switched to mac from PC and am having trouble opening certain files in the mac.
I have a JVC Everio MG-330 HDD camcorder and the file format is .MOD
I had the same problem opening these files in windows on my old PC and after a bit of research found out all I had to do was change the file extension to .mpg
Now I have tried opening both fiel types in the mac , .MOD and .MPG and I am getting a message saying " cannot open, this is not a movie file. "
I havent imported any of these files into imovie , this is just simply trying to open them from the videos home folder. They just wont open at all.
Can someone offer a solution or tell me what I need to do.
Thanks.

Hey!
Have a read of this....
Review
In particular this paragraph......
"UPDATE: Well, after my review of the Everio on the 14th of March I have received a couple of e-mail from interested parties informing me that the comments I made about the .MOD file format not being useable on a Mac, was not totally correct.
The .MOD file is really a ‘MPEG2' and if you have the latest plug-in's on your Mac version of Quicktime you should be able to play these. You can also go to the link below and download the ‘MPEG Streamclip' software, from an Apple recommended website, this OSX application converts the MPEG1 & 2 files to a Quicktime format or DV stream.
http://www.alfanet.it/squared5/mpegstreamclip.html
The original MPEG2 files can apparently be edited in either Apple's Final cut software and Adobe AFX and Premiere but once the files are converted they can be worked on in ‘iMovie', although there is a danger of a loss of sound in the conversion process.
Then have a look here....
QuickTime MPEG-2 Playback - Mac OS X
Might be of some help!

FCE 4 and JVC everio hd7 "easy set up"

Ok I currently have a JVC everio hd7 which is a hard drive based cam. I also bought FCE 4 but I am exhausted of importing clips to imovie6 and then FC. I would like to know if anyone has had any luck with these two?

Not sure why you are going through iMovie first. Sounds like you are in the same boat I am with my hard drive based Sony cam. If your JVC saves clips as MPG, you have to use MPEG Streamclip to convert them. There is a batch save option which allows you to save all your clips in the same format, then you can walk away and let it do the work. Go to http://www.squared5.com to download the free software. Use these settings when you export:
Export to Quicktime
Compression: Apple DV/DVCPRO - NTSC
Quality: 100%
Frame Size: 854 x 480 (16:9) [If your camera is 16:9, which most new cameras are.]
Be sure to deselect "Interlaced Scaling" and "Reinterlace Chroma" so you don't get that jittery effect.
The mov files will end up being twice the size of the mpg, but according to Ian Brown, that's normal.

5.1 Universal and JVC-HD100

Does the 5.1 crossgrade from final cut studio 5.0.4 fix the problems with capture using the JVC HD-100? I hear at NAB that they were demonstrating the 24p capture with the HD-100 and that it was a 5.1 version. Is this the same version or an update to follow?
Thanks
Yooch

You've always been able to capture 720p30 from this camera. 24P support is forthcoming. Apple at NAB was demoing FCP working with JVC at 24p, and the Canon at 24f...but those were versions that haven't been released yet.
And Apple's comment to when they will be?
"Soon."

Premiere Pro CS4 and JVC HM700e (Mac)

Hey there,
first i'd like to excuse my bad (school-)english.
Hope you'll understand my question anyway.
We just bought a new JVC-HM 700e Camcorder and we use the CS4 Creative Suite in our company.
The 700e we can produce MP4 (Win) and MOV (Mac + FinalCut).
Now we have problems to watch and import the Video to a new Premiere Pro Project.
You have any idea how to handle those files with Mac and Premiere?
Thank you!
Nikolaus K.

Is there any way that I can get Premiere Pro CS4 to recognise Encore CS5 for Dynamic Linking?
No. The rest is probably thwartet by licensing restrictions for the MPEG and DVD stuff as it existed back then. Anyway, IMO not worth the trouble to work with DL. Due to the limited memory in 32bit apps it will be severely unenjoyable plus it had tons of bugs back then.

QuickTime, iMovie, and JVC Video miscommunication

I've been uploading footage from my JVC Everio WS camera to my external hard drive. From there, I drag the footage into an iMovie project. From there, I edit and create magic. However, I've run into the problem of QuickTime no longer recognizing my film files and iMovie not importing the footage into projects.
When I try to open the .TOD files with QuickTime, which has worked up until now, I get the message "The movie contains an incorrect duration." I don't need to open the files in QuickTime to make movies, but when I try to drag them into iMovie projects, I get "The file could not be imported: The file “Brains/Volumes/Outside Brain/My Film Projects/Raw Footage/Hiroshima/succeed.TOD” can’t be imported; QuickTime couldn’t parse it: -2014"
I clearly have no idea what to do, especially considering that this hasn't been a problem until, seemingly, overnight. Any help will be greatly appreciated. I thought it had something to do with QuickTime v7.4, but I don't know how it could. Please, help!
Peaces,

IMovie 11 and JVC HM100

Just the other day I found this video on how to get Perian Quicktime components so to use my JVC HM100
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sfSQI0nS0lw
worked great- but now only a few days later- I am now unable to select the video files (they are now grayed out) to import. Was there an update to iMovie or QuickTime that broke compatibility? I have checked this on both my MacBook and MacBook Pro...
I have removed the components, redowloaded them and replaced them- but nothing works. QuickTime is still able to play them, same with iPhoto, but iMovie is not able to import or recognize them as a mov to be imported...can anyone help or has this happened to anyone else recently?

The solution I ended up doing was using a machine that has FCP on it. BUT, I found out later for those who do not have FCP- there are opensoruce versions of the Codecs that will allow iMoive 11 to view and edit the video files.
You can download and install the free Perian XDCAM Open Source Component here.... http://blog.lib.umn.edu/mcfa0086/discretecosine/164630.html

Final Cut and JVC 101E Camcorders

When will Apple have it's CODEC for 720/25p to enable HDV digitising from JVC 101E and other like camcorders?

Welcome to the forum - it's a fair enough sort of a question, too.
Truth is - we don't know.
Can't understand what the issue is and why support is there for some things and not others for JVC.
fwiw - personally I can't see it being from Apple's end - Steve loves to support ALL camera manufacturers. I can only think it's from JVC's end and why that should be so, I haven't a clue.
You can only wait for an update - as to when .... ????

Problem with FireWire Hard Drive and JVC MiniDV Video Cam

I've been running my iMac with a 1 TB WD MyBook Firewire drive and it has been working fine.
I just purchased a JVC GR D850 miniDV camera. I hooked the camera up to the second FireWire port on my iMac and, initially, the import of the video from the camera into iMovie was ok (video being saved to the external firewire drive). After a couple of minutes, I got a warning that a device had been disconnected improperly, apparently the firewire drive just disconnected itself from the machine. I rebooted everything and once again, as soon as I turned on the video camera the drive disconnected.
After that, the iMac won't even recognize that the video camera is connected, and when I checked the little bit of video that had been saved on the drive it was unusable. Completely choppy.
Am I dealing with a problem of too little power/memory on this G5 iMac?

You don't specify which model iMac you have, but 2 GB should be enough to handle a video download. Can you try connecting the camera to another computer to see if it is faulty?
Also, have you tried connecting the camera to the port that you have the MyBook in?
Try resetting the SMU and see if that helps. Please post back with results,

IMovie 2008 and JVC Everio HD Camcorder

I recently purchased a brand new iMac and a JVC Everio HD Camcorder. The first time I tried to import the videos taken from my JVC, iMovie recognized it. Now it seems that it does not. Everytime I connect the camcorder to the iMac only iPhoto opens. When I go to "File" "Import from camera" the internal iMac camera opens but nothing with the Everio Camcorder.
What is wrong?

The same happens to us. The JVC HD camcorder had worked fine importing when I dragged the .TOD movie files in to iMovie 06. Now,I try to drag the same file type to iMovie 08 -- and it doesn't even recognize the file.
But iMovie 06 recognizes 1440 CBR files when importing via firewire. Maybe if you film in CBR format, iMovie 08 will recognize he file? Here's a link to the JVC's site for a tutorial on the CBR format: http://media2.jvc.com/camcorder/macHD.mov
Hmmm, but what about my .TOD files in iMovie 08?????? That's the problem! Thanks for any and all help!

FCE 4.1 and JVC GZ-EX210 Full HD Everio Camcorder

I apologize if this is not the correct forum, but I have FCE 4.1 and I do not see an area for it.
I am considering buying a JVC and was wondering if it was compatible with FCE 4.1. I ask because I've been told there have been issues with certain Canon models.
Many thanks for your help! :-)

FCE using AVCHD will only work with cameras that produce Interlaced footage in the 1920 x 1080 HD dimension.
My bit of quick research found no mention of interlaced footage in the HD size, only Progressive.
Unless the camers can produce 1920 x 1080i (interlaced) you will be jumping through hoops instead of editing.

FCP 4.5HD and JVC Pro HD

I'm trying to import footage on a JVC ProHD (mini dv) tape from a JVC BR-HD50 deck so I can cut it on FCP 4.5HD. My goal is to cut a sample to add to my web site.
FCP 4.5HD has DVCPRO HD 720p24 in easy set up but no ProHD. I guess because this format came out after this version of FCP.
Does that mean I must upgrade to PCP6?
I read it is also possible to down convert from High Definition to DV standard which can be captured into FCP through i.Link (Firewire) and edited using the DV Easy Setup. I assume I'd lose the HD quality but will it be noticeable on the web?
Also can you explain how to do this? I think I would then be able to cut on FCP 4.5HD.
Thanks in advance.

Does that mean I must upgrade to PCP6?
Yes. FCP 4.5 does not support HDV...HDV came out after FCP 4.5 was released. And the applications that were used at the time to capture HDV for that format are no longer supported apparently. LumireHD and HDVxDV.
I read it is also possible to down convert from High Definition to DV standard which can be captured into FCP through i.Link (Firewire) and edited using the DV Easy Setup. I assume I'd lose the HD quality but will it be noticeable on the web?
You can tell the camera to output a DV signal. And yes, there will be a quality difference...but not something that would be too noticable by the time you compress it for the web.
Also can you explain how to do this?
You have to look in the camera manual for that information.
