Recording Ppt presentation interspersed with video clips on DVD

I want to record a live presentation I make with Powerpoint slides interspersed with shots of me and video clips. Is this possible with iDVD version 7.0.4?

Welcome to the forums.
If you'd like all that to be integrated, you probably want to look into iMovie. In general, iDVD handles the output from iMovie and creates DVDs, but iMovie allows the producer (you) to cut between shots of ppt slides, you, video clips, etc. Here are several tutorials which may be of interest:

Is it possible to export a video clip from DVD player to iMovie '09?

If I load a homemade DVD onto my iMac using Disk Utility and then import either the entire disc or portions of the disc into iMovie, that works just fine. However I noticed that some clips are missing in iMovie, even though they are on the iMac in form of a .dmg file on the desktop. The same file that was used to import in to iMovie. If I look at this file using DVD player, everything is there, but some of these clips are missing in the event window. So I created a video clip in DVD player of those pieces missing in iMovie and now how can I get these into iMovie?

Hey, best way to import video from a DVD video disc for editing is to acctually have a simple video file. Use Handbrake or MPEG StreamClip to read the disc and create a video file off the video stream.
You could also set in and out points anc manually create several clips, which may help with playback and rendering for editing. I don't know how extensive you're going to get in your editing with iMovie...
Hope that helped.

Photoshop Elements 9 Downloader crash with video clips on memory card

I have a Canon SX30IS. When I use PSE9 to download from memory card, if there are any videos present on the card, the Photo Downloader crashes.
I believe that it is something to do with Apple Quicktime. When I uninstall Quicktime , PSE downloader does not crash while importing media form this camera, but cannot play video clips. On reinstalling Quicktime , the PSE downloader crashes while searching the memory card for media.
I have not upgraded PSE twice now because of this crash. What makes it worse is that Apple Quicktime is a very poor media player, managing about 2FPS on the video clips from this camera when both the Canon and the VLC video codecs can manage 30FPS.
I would much prefer if I could choose to use a video renderer, like using any available Windows codecs rather than insisting on using annoying Apple software.

Please let me know the mode in which camera/card reader is connected to the system (USB/PTP/MTP). This can be determined from camera.
Please try to follow:
1. Navigate to: C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Elements 9 Organizer\PhotoDownloader.exe.
2. Right click on 'PhotoDownloader.exe' and select 'Properties'.
3. Naviage to 'compatability' tab and click on 'Run this program in comptability mode for' and select 'win xp service pack 3'.
4. In the same dialog, click on 'Run this program as an admin' under 'privelage level'.
5. Now run the: C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Elements 9 Organizer\PhotoshopElementsOrganizer.exe as an administrator.
Please let me know if you face any issues in following the steps.

Bluetooth File Transfer Problem with Video Clips -...

Hello!
I am posting this problem even though a similar one is claimed to be solved ...
I have a similar Problem with BT video clip file transfer in my E5-00 as someone had earlier with music files (SW up to date). Except that in this case the files are unique video clips received from one of the latest Samsung Android phones via Bluetooth (don't ask me which format).
Tried the obvious first, using Windows File Manager over USB. Even Windows Search could not locate the files, not even using wildcards.
Also tried using Ovi Suite Syncronisation, but the files did not appear in either Photos/Videos or Messages (even though the files are in the SMS Inbox - does not make sense why).
The problem in applying the solution approach presented here for Music seems to be that the files cannot be played at all in my E5-00's. Therefore I don't get as far as to the menu where the E5 would ask whether or not the files should be saved or not.
So far I have not been able to connect to an old bluetooth laptop (Windows XP) so that the Bluetooth Exchange would connect let alone seen whether the BTexchange works in this case or not.
Is there any other chance of getting to the files through the directory structure? If so, please give me the (Windows) directory path? Any other advice than switching to Android?

Unfortunately I have reached an impasse. If I touch a video clip (in organizer) the system crashes. I mean locked up cold. I'm not sure what has caused this but I do know that I will not be able to communicate correctly or sufficiently with you in order for you to help me out.
I've found PS and Premier to be very difficult to work with. Very, very frustrating. Photography, both still and video, is not as enjoyable as it once was.
Again, I very much appreciate your initial help and if I get to a point where I've improved my situation ... I'll reach out again. Thanks

Merge Still Photos with Video Clips?

I have an iMovie project containing only video clips in the timeline, arranged by capture date/time. I also have an iPhoto file containing still photos of similar material. How can I import all of the iPhoto stills into the iMovie project such that the photos are inserted within the timeline and combined with the video clips so that everything (photos and videos) is arranged by date/time? Is that possible? If not, can someone suggest a script that will do just that?

iM is no 'scriptable' app, video editing is usually no process for any automatic tasks...
I would...
* give the photos some names which indicates where in timeline of the iM project they belong (numbers 1,2,...? a date...?)
* place photos manually into time of project...
... yes, video-editing is sometimes a painstaking, time-consuming tasks ... ;))

Working with video clips

Ok I obviously have some time on my hands and I'm getting ready to start using Motion more often the AE for projects so here is another question(s).
In short how do you make a still frame in the middle of a video clip that will hold through the remaining duration of the project. (i.e. batter swings and hits ball but now i want the motion to stop at the moment of contact).
Also I can't seem to find any section in the user manual that talks about the various way to manipulate a video clips timing.
TonyTony

Hi TonyTony
Let me address your 2nd question 1st. Have a look at a post a little further down the forum index called 'Changing the speed of a video clip' by Mr Myth - that should answer your timing question.
If you drop a video clip onto the canvas, and then click on 'project' on the toolbar to reveal the project layers at the side of the canvas, you can then click on the 'media' tab and set the end condition, so you can make the final frame repeat as a still image. (I'm working from memory here, as I don't have motion on this laptop I'm using, so someone correct me if I've got this wrong!)
Also, if you select the movie clip in the canvas (or on the layers view) you can then use the 'inspector' to adjust things like the in and out points etc etc.
Keep on plugging away at Motion - I'm sure once you get a grip of it's powerful features you will come to love it.
Also, Use the search on this forum to find topics starting with 'Fun with' and you'll find examples (incl projects) of just what you can do with Motion.
And look on the motion 'help' menu and do those tutorials - they are absolutely priceless.

How to create a Forum with video clips

I would like to set up a forum where people can only use text

As I am a beginner, I do not know where to start. Can you
advise me?
What is best way to set up a forum by using dreamweaver?
What is the best quality of video clips to be used? and

Hi
*Play all resp one chapter at a time*
Play All Button
1. There are NO - Play All - button in any version of iDVD
2. It can be faked in several ways
• Easies and most fault proof way is to make a doublet movie containing All and with
Chapters set to match. It will take up x2 space but is easy to understand and produce.
• It's said that one can put all movies into a Photo/SlideShow and this will also
give the function of a Play All button - Never tested though.
• Using another program to do this eg. Roxio Toast™ where there ia a Play All button option.
Mike Evangelist1
You might be able to get close to what you want by using a slideshow in iDVD. (It's not widely known, but you can put videos in a slideshow.) If you set the slide duration to manual, playback will pause after each movie/slide, and you can continue with the 'next' button.

Moving audio with video clip

i tried to paste audio at playhead, but when i add a new video clip to the movie, the audio does not move with it. does anyone know how to help me!!!! please

When you lock the audio clip to the playhead, it won't move from the video point it was placed at. You need to UNLOCK those audio clips to allow them to move now. Really, you should get your video work in place first and then move/place your audio clips where you need them. That's the simpler way to approach this.
Re-reading your post again, it seems you haven't locked the audio to the playhead because adding video ahead should move everything together. Did you highlight the audio clips you wanted locked before clicking on "Lock to Playhead"? Play with it some more, you'll get it, or do what I suggest about adding the audio after.

Imovie for iphone - no picture with video clips

After upgrading my imovie app to fix the export problem, some of the video clips in my movie show only a black screen instead of the video. The video clips were all taken with the iphone and all played well within imovie before I upgraded the app and still play fine outside of imovie.
I have tried deleting the project and starting over and I tried removing the app and resinstalling, but niether of these resolved the problem. Has anyone else encountered these problems?
Update - the problem seems to occur only if I try to shorten a video within imovie. Since I have begun editing the videos before importing to imovie the problem hasn't happened yet.
Thanks in advance!

Thanks for the reply. The movie starts with a 3 second video followed by several pictures then another 3 second video followed by the video I shortened 11 seconds to 7 seconds within imovie. When one video goes black, they all seem to go black.
But to your second question, I checked the adjacent transitions and all were set to cross disolve 1 second. When I changed the transition on the back-side of the first video to none, the picture within the video came back.
So I changed all of the video transitions to none and they all came back. Of course after doing this I had to play around a little bit and oddly enough so far the picture has stayed even when I switch the transition back to cross disolve 1 second.
So at this point I haven't been able to re-create the problem but if it does happen again I'm happy that I now have a way to get the picture to come back.
Thanks again!

Moving audio tracks to on 2nd layer synch with video clip on first layer

Hi all; greetings to Tom, Ian B and Piero - and many thanks to all for your help in the past. My question is I want to overlay a video clip as a second layer in FCE and sync up the sound with the first. The first layer is a video of a song, the second layer I want to add has different video - 3 short clips as 3 short .MOV files - but same sound track. So I need to EXACTLY match the sound of the second to the lips of the singer in the first. Can any one help me to figure out how can I slip the audio track left and right easily and precisely. I have done it in iMovie by dragging the sound bar but need to use FCE this time. Many thanks to all as always.

Unlink the audio and video tracks.
Select the track/s you want to move and hit the + or - key.
A box appears under the Timeline Ruler, type in a value to move the track/s forward or back then hit Enter/Return to activate the change.
eg. +1 is one frame forward.
Note: The clips won't move if there are other clips in the way preventing movement.

Problem with video clips in Elements

Video clips that I've taken with my Canon DSLR cannot be opened in my organizer. If I try to open them the system crashes. I have a Win 7 - 64 bit op sys with enough memory to choke a horse. I fairly familar with how this stuff works but this one has got me stumped. I have opened them before but something has changed and I don't know what. Even when I opened them before they played poorly ... start and stop motion. I went through all the prodceedures to correct (updated V card drivers and such) but nothing helped. Anyone got any ideas? Thanks in advance.

Unfortunately I have reached an impasse. If I touch a video clip (in organizer) the system crashes. I mean locked up cold. I'm not sure what has caused this but I do know that I will not be able to communicate correctly or sufficiently with you in order for you to help me out.

Narration does not stay with video clips when editing

I have been working on a large video project in PE7. I just finished adding approximately 100 narrations at various points in various clips. I then inserted a video clip that was missing and all the narrations seems to have shifted and are no longer in sync with the video clips. Any suggestions before and go to the timeline and move each clip?

If you inserted a clip, the timeline is designed to "ripple" or move over to allow for the clip.
If you don't want the timeline to ripple as you add new clips, hold down the Ctrl key as you add your clips.

Whilst on holiday i downloaded pictures from my digital camera to my ipad along with video clips. they ran fine. i have just synced with my macbook and the videos have been removed with a message to say that my ipad cant play them! why?

Whilst on holiday I downloaded pictures and video from my digital camera to my ipad. everything was fine. The digital pics and video footage played great! i have just got back and synced my ipad with my macbook and the video clips have been put onto the macbook but not reinstalled on the ipad. I get a message to say that the video clips have not been loaded as the ipad cant play them! Why has this happened? As i deleted the original clips off the camera once they were originally loaded onto the ipad i have no way of reinstalling them. Wat can i do to get them back onto the ipad?

ps when syncing it jumps through steps 1 - 4 real fast, i seem to remeber iphone showing the number of tracks transferring and names, but i see nothing? then it sits on 5 saying "waiting for changes to be applied"
