Re: How to segment a video file into it's individual frames?

I am trying to do the same thing as you - grab individual frames from a video stream. I am finding that the Java players do not provide frameGrabbingControls and hence I am unable to access individual frames. Have you had any success?

QuickTime requires player and plugins that most people don't have.  You'll reach a much wider audience if you use HTML5 <video> with mp4, webm and ogg files.

  • How to add a video file into an html page

    I would like to add a Quick Time video into a website that i am currently coding for a school project. I have the video file on my hard drive, so I'm not trying to embed it from YouTube. I have tried several ways of placing the video into my webpage, but all I can hear is the sound from it, there is no visual to go with it. Does anyone know how I would go about placing the file into my webpage, or what code I would need to use? I'm using Dreamweaver CS4 and, once again, the video is a Quick Time file.
    Thanks in advance.

  • How to split large video files into multiple individual clips by date

    Hello. I'm looking for a freeware/shareware program (if one exists, or willing to pay for one if it does this well) that will:
    1) Analyze a large AVI file identifying the start/start points of each segment of video and the dates the video segments were shot.
    2) Then allow me to organize (for example, join 2 or more segments together if it's a video with a lot of start/stop points during the same shot) the segments identified in step 1 into logical clips that could be split apart from the 1 large AVI file.
    3) Lastly, it would split my one large AVI file into the multiple clips or files that I identified in step 2.
    A piece of software called FootTrack does a great job analyzing AVI files as I describe in steps 1 & 2, but it doesn't allow you to split or export the one avi file into multiple avi files.
    I really don't want to have to do this one clip at a time, I've got to believe there's a program out there that will automate this process for me.
    Thanks

    I don't know of a way to automate it. I just did about 15 years worth. It wasn't too hard. I use an application called mpegstreamclip. Its very easy and free to download either from the apple site or direct from its site.

    Bascically you set the in and out points with the i and o keys and export.

  • How to break big video file into many small ones?

    I have a 1-hour long video file (miniDV), recorded on tape with timecode but without timecode markers between individual clips (that is, I cannot scene detect capture it). How do I best go about accurately breaking it up into individual video files on my disc?
    1) capture it, drag it into Timeline, cut into clips there, manually copy-paste the in-out data into a batch list. Takes lots of time.
    or
    2) capture it, open it in Source Window, make subclips, export the batch list. The problem here is that the timecode in the original file is weird, starting at 08;06;40;01, and all the subclips inherit it. Otherwise, it would probably take less time than option (1).
    or
    Is there any way to generate batch list from the timeline, in order to avoid time-consuming manual copy-pasting in-out data?
    Thank you!

    I don't understand how you can have timecode that won't allow you to use it to tell (something like scenalzer) to split on capture or whatever.  Just curious.
    Scene capture for DV footage isn't dependent on timecode, it's dependent on datecode/time-of-day (TOD) information written onto the tape. I've run into this problem before when the internal battery on a DV camera was dead, and so the internal TOD generator didn't function; the same time and date was written on every single frame, making it impossible to use automatic scene detection.
    Here's another option: drop your clip into a sequence, and split it (using the razor and trimming tools) where you want scene breaks. Be sure to trim at least a couple of frames off of either the tail of the outgoing clip or the head of the incoming clip. When done, go to Project > Project Manager, and use the "Create New Trimmed Project" option. Uncheck the "Include Handles" option, set your destination and hit OK. Premiere will create shorter trimmed versions of the original clip in the destination you specify, and also create a new project file that points to those trimmed versions; there is no quality loss, so don't worry about that. You can either use the generated project, or just import the split clips into a new project.

  • How do I import mp4 video files into Premiere Pro Cs4

    For sometime now, I've been finding it practically impossible to import video files into premiere Pro cs4 especially mp4 files which happens to be the commonest to me now, as I currently shoot with a Nokia Lumia 920 phone with Windows phone 8 OS. I have tried severally to convert the videos into various other formats using Xilisoft video converter version 7.7.2 and each time I do this, they would either not play fine in cs4 or not import at all.
    Please what can I do to be able to import these mp4 files into Cs4 or what format or how do I convert them into a format that would play seamlessly for better editing?
    Funny enough, I had once imported video files that were shot with the same phone and they worked well, just wondering why they aren't now.
    Please any assistance would be appreciated.
    Thanks
    NKC

    I'm happy to announce to you all that my "mp4 importing" issues has been sorted out. Now I import mp4 shot with the same Windows Phone 8 Device into Adobe Premiere Pro CS4. Only that for the moment, it doesn't play as fast as with ordinary player.
    But how did I get it to work, you may wonder;
    I simply installed Itunes on the system, I also installed an app called media monkey. I can't say which of the apps did the magic but the next time I tried to import mp4 files into Premiere Pro after these installations, it imported seamlessly.
    Obviously there's a link between the required codecs and the itunes itself.
    You may want to try it and hope it works for you.
    Kindly inform us if it works.
    Thank you all.
    Cheers.

  • How do I transfer video files shot from my camera (Canon 5DMk2) which is in .MOV format into iTunes ?

    how do I transfer video files shot from my camera (Canon 5DMk2) which is in .MOV format into iTunes ?  My photos and video files are first imported into Aperture then synced with iTunes. However, itunes does not capture the Video files but uploads the phtos from Aperture during sync.
    I tried dragging the video files into iTunes but it still would not be captured into iTunes ?
    Appreciate any help on this. Thanks

    Open them in Quicktime Player 10.1. Then, use Quicktime's Share menu > iTunes.  That will create an iTunes compatible version and automatically load it into your iTunes movie library.

  • Segmenting large video files

    can anyone recommend a software to divide up large video files into 1GB chunks ready for upload to my iDisk storage. The files will be in MPEG2 format.

    You can break up large files into smaller segments using the Terminal command "Split".
    In the following example, we will break an (imaginary) movie, "MyFilm.mov" into 1000MB pieces.
    Place the file to be split onto the desktop (this keeps it simple, otherwise you will have to "cd" to the directory where your movie resides)
    Open Terminal and...
    TYPE: *cd desktop* and press return.
    TYPE: *split -b 1000m MyFilm.mov* and press return.
    This will produce a number of files on your desktop named xaa, xab, xac and so on. There is a way to retain the original name or rename the file to something else but I don't have documentation on this at hand. You could move them to a suitably named folder.
    The "1000m" part of the command is the size of the individual split files (in this case, the file will be broken into pieces of approx. 1000MB each
    This may take some time to process, depending on the total size of the resulting files, how much RAM you have and the speed of your Mac.
    At some point, your archived files will need to be re-assembled into a viewable movie. So....
    Rejoin a set of split files:
    Place all the files "xaa", "xab" etc, that are to be rejoined, onto the desktop
    (keep it simple, remember...)
    In Terminal;
    TYPE: *cd desktop* and press return.
    Type cat x* > MyFilm.mov and press return. Again, this may take some time, depending on the size of the resulting files.

  • Questions on how to utilize still/ Video files from 3Gs using iLife 09?

    Hi,
    Just got back from a trip where I took a bunch of stills and videos using the my 3Gs. I just downloaded them onto my Mac using iPhoto.
    1. How do get the video files from iPhoto into iMovie as it seems that iPhoto imported it all.
    2. How do I get the images that were taken with Location services turned "ON" to display the location they were taken?
    3. Will location mapping also work with iPhone video files?

    Maybe someone in the iMovie discussion forum would know some of the specifics from iPhoto to iMovie. I thought I remember seeing a way to import straight from my iMove.
    Here is the discussions link
