Saving two iPod-compatible movies into one iPod-compatible movie?!?

This is baffling me...Why can't I simply take two iPod-compatible MP4 videos, paste them together, and SAVE it as a self-contained movie which is iPod-compatible?? QT Player 7.0.4 Pro forces you to save the self-contained movie as ".mov" and if you try to change the extension afterwards, QT Player refuses to open it. At any rate, it won't transfer to the iPod either. I realize I can always re-encode as an iPod compatible movie but that's pretty time-consuming (plus I worry about further compression reducing the quality unneccessarily)! Is there an easier way?
PowerBook G4   Mac OS X (10.4.6)   QT 7.0.4 Pro

The video iPod can play the .mov file extension as long as the specs for it are not exceeded.
Your "pasted" .mp4 or .m4v files are just in a .mov container. No edits or changes to the codecs used. The two "joined" files should work just fine on the iPod (assuming they worked properly prior to joining them together).

    How do I combine two or more pictures into one?

    I found out how to do what I wanted and I'm giving my steps in hopes that it might help someone else.  I wanted to put several photos from a file onto a new blank image.  This is what I did.
    1.  Create a blank page.    File/New/ Blank File.   Put in the size.  I used 8x10.
    2.  Bring the photo  you want to use into Elements as you always do. It will list along the top next to the blank sheet.
    3.  Choose SELECT (top of screen)/ Select All.
    4.  Choose Edit/Copy   or Command "C"
    5.  Click on the Blank File.   Chose Edit/Paste  or Command "V"
    6.  Click on Image/ Transform or Command "T".  There should be a dotted line around your pasted image.  You can then move and adjust the image to how you want it.  When finished, press the check-mark on lower right of photo.
    7.   Repeat this with all the photos you want on the new blank file.
    8.  You will see on lower right of Elements,  the background layer and as many layers as you have photos.  These layers need to be permanently placed on the background layer. Go to Layers and press Merge Visible.  This will merge all layers to the background.
    9.  Save as and you are done.

    I have multiple Apple IDs. Is there a way for me to merge them into a single Apple ID?
    Apple IDs cannot be merged. You should use your preferred Apple ID from now on, but you can still access your purchased items such as music, movies, or software using your other Apple IDs.

  • Loading consolodated data from two excel files / cube into one infocube

    Hi Friends,
    I am receiving data from two sources:
    Source 1:
    Customer Product  Location                          Keyfig(Budget)
    C1            P1          L1                                     100
    C2            P1         L1                                      200
    C1           P2          L1                                      300
    Source 2:
    Product     Location                        KeyFig (Actual)
    P1               L1                                           320
    P2               L1                                           350
    I want to combinedata from two sources (or cubes) into one cube as follows:
    Customer      PRoduct       location          Budget            Actual
    C1                 P1                 L1                  100                 320
    C2                 P1                L1                   200                 320
    C1                P2                L1                   300                   350
    I tried by creating multiple data sources / infosources / transformations / updates rules and also tried with both DSO and cube. But the records are always getting updated as follows:
    Customer      PRoduct       location          Budget            Actual
    C1                 P1                 L1                  100                 320
    C2                 P1                L1                   200                 320
    C1                P2                L1                   300                   350
                        P1               L1                                           320
                       P2               L1                                           350
    Can you help me figure out if this is possible? If yes, how can I do it.
    Thanks a lot in advance.

    Hi,
    Please use the below approach.
    Load the budget data in ODS1.
    Load the actual data in ODS2.
    Create a ODS3 with same structure as ODS1 with additional key figure for Actuals,which will get data from ODS1. Here add a look up based product and location to populate actuals.
    Start Routine
    SELECT * FROM ODS2 into ITAB
    FOR ALL ENTRIES in SOURCE_PACKAGE.
    Transformation Routine:
    Read table ITAB  into WATAB
    with key location = <source_fields>-Location
    product =  <source_fields>-Product.
    If sy-subrc = 0.
    RESULT = WATAB-ACTUAL.
    ENDIF.

  • How do I combine two I-tunes libraries into one?

    I have an I-tunes library and my daughter has her own.  We would like to combine them into one account.  She has her own account and log in a well as her own appple ID.  I also have my own but seems would make things easier to have one so we can share all of the apps and other things.    Instead of buying the same apps for my phone and then for her ipod touch it would make sense to have it all on one account

    Time flies Goldie.
    I'm back with MAC's any luck with merging.  I have a hundred's of CD's waiting to be downloaded to a hard drive but I just don't trust the constant updating with I-tunes.  The cloud is probably the solution and home sharing.

  • I would like to combine two external hard drives into one?  How do I go about doing this?

    Hello:   In iPhoto I have an old external hard drive (EHD) with a photo library and a new one EHD with a photo library which has more space.  I would like to move all the photos from the old EHD to the new EDH.  Can you show me the steps to get this done so I don't lose any of my photos? I just want to use the new EHD only after the move.

    Connect both drives to your mac.
    Quit iPhoto, if it is runinning.
    If both your iPhoto libraries have the same name, rename one of them, perhaps "iPhoto Library 1.photolibrary" and "iPhoto Library 2.photolibrary", so you will not overwrite one of them, when you move them to the same drive.
    Select the library one in the Finder and drag it from the old drive to the new drive.
    Now launch iPhoto while depressing the option (alt) key and selecting the library in the new location. This way you can switch between the libraries.
    If you want to combine the two libraries into one single library, you will need another program. iPhoto Library Manager can merge libraries into one.

  • Fetch data from two tables and insert into one table

    I have similar to the following data in two tables (@Plant, @PlantDirector) and need to consolidate into one table (@PlantNew) as follows.
    DECLARE @Plant TABLE (PlantID INT, PlantName VARCHAR(100))
    INSERT INTO @Plant (PlantID, PlantName) VALUES (1, 'Name One'),(2, 'Name Two'),(3, 'Name Three'),(4, 'Name Four'),(5, 'Name Five'),(6, 'Name Six')
    Director data for the Plants exist in the following table. Assistant value 1 means Assistant Director and 0 means Director. 
    Data exists only for subset of plants and a Plant may have one or both roles.
    DECLARE @PlantDirector TABLE (PlantID INT, PlantDirectorID INT, Assistant bit)
    INSERT INTO @PlantDirector (PlantID, PlantDirectorID, Assistant) VALUES (2, 111, 1),(2, 222, 0),(4, 333, 0),(6,444,1)
    The above data needs to be inserted into one table (@PlantNew) as follows: 
    PlantID in @Plant table is IDENTITY value and needs to be inserted as-is into this table.
    PlantDirExists will get a value of 1 if at least one record exists in @PlantDirector table for a PlantID. PlantAssistantDirID and PlantDirID should be set to the corresponding PlantDirID or NULL appropriately depending on the data.
    DECLARE @PlantNew TABLE (PlantID INT, PlantName VARCHAR(100), PlantDirExists bit, PlantAssistantDirID INT, PlantDirID INT)
    INSERT INTO @PlantNew (PlantID, PlantName, PlantDirExists, PlantAssistantDirID, PlantDirID)
    VALUES (1, 'Name One', 0, NULL, NULL),(2, 'Name Two', 1, 111, 222),(3, 'Name Three', 0, NULL, NULL),(4, 'Name Four', 1, NULL, 333),(5, 'Name Five', 0, NULL, NULL),(6, 'Name Six',1, 444, NULL)
    How do I achieve the above using SQL ? Thanks.

    like this
    INSERT @PlantNew  (PlantID, PlantName, PlantDirExists, PlantAssistantDirID, PlantDirID) 
    SELECT p.PlantID,
    p.PlantName,
    CASE WHEN pd.PlantID IS NULL THEN 0 ELSE 1 END,
    PlantAssistantDirID,
    PlantDirID
    FROM @Plant p
    LEFT JOIN (SELECT PlantID,
    MAX(CASE WHEN Assistant = 1 THEN PlantDirectorID END) AS PlantAssistantDirID,
    MAX(CASE WHEN Assistant = 0 THEN PlantDirectorID END) AS PlantDirID
    @PlantDirector
    GROUP BY PlantID)pd
    ON pd.PlantID = p.PlantID
    Please Mark This As Answer if it helps to solve the issue Visakh ---------------------------- http://visakhm.blogspot.com/ https://www.facebook.com/VmBlogs
    You're missing a FROM

  • Combining two seperate pagemaker files into one pagemaker file.

    We are having done two seperate pagemaking files in two different systems. We are in need to combine/join these two pagemaker publications into one pagemaker publication. How to do this?

    There's several options.
    1. If the two publications are on different PCs, then create a PDF of each and combine them in Acrobat.
    2.Use the Book utility to combine the files when you print.  They need to be on the same PC.
    3. If the two publications are on the same PC (with all the necessary fonts and images), and the files are small, i.e. no more than a few pages, then open both publications in PM.  Tile the two publications side by side.  Add the required number of new pages to the first document, and have "New page 1" opposite "Page 1" of the second publication.
    With the pointer tool selected in the second publication, click Edit - Select All.  Then quickly drag all the objects acroos to "New Page 1" in the first publication.
    Do the same for the remaining pages - hence the requirement for not having too many pages.
    Use File - Save As to save the first publication with a new filename.  All links to images will be preserved.
